The LEGO Botanical Collection theme has very quickly become a mainstay in my household, with each new release finding its way into various rooms and on various surfaces to the point where it looks like I’m running a florist shop for folks that can’t keep regular plants alive. The theme itself has come a long […]

Review: LEGO 10345 Flower Arrangement (2025 Botanical Collection)

Kieron Verbrugge — Sat, 08 Feb 2025 11:27:14 +0000

I’ve been a fan and collector of the LEGO Botanical Collection sets since the theme first kicked off with the Flower Bouquet and Bonsai Tree back in 2021, choosing largely to fill my home with beautiful, plastic brick-built flora over the easily-neglected real thing. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed the various bouquets that have launched […]

Review: LEGO 10362 French Café

Jay Ong — Fri, 07 Feb 2025 14:21:57 +0000

It’s always an exciting time when LEGO Icons debuts a new sub-theme/format that’s geared towards adult builders. 10362 French Café is the first of what I hope are many “Restaurants of the World”, a compact bookshelf display model that’s aimed at LEGO fans who want an aesthetically-pleasing structure, without the space and/or budget that you’d […]

Review: LEGO 10333 Bumblebee

Jay Ong — Sat, 15 Jun 2024 13:00:46 +0000

It’s been two years since 10302 Optimus Prime, and I still find myself in disbelief that LEGO Transformers is a thing. That once fierce competitors Hasbro and LEGO are now working on licensed toys together is a reflection of how much the toy industry has matured, and LEGO’s dominance. It was always going to be […]
