The Lego Marvel Superheroes theme is without a doubt up there with some of the most poplar themes that Lego is currently producing. This is probably down to the fact that the MCU is one of the biggest franchises going and kids and adults alike go and watch these films and then want to get the sets based around the characters and the films alike. This top 10 is without a doubt one of the hardest top 10 lists that we have currently done. As a collector of Lego Marvel Superhero figures it was practically difficult to narrow down a list of heroes and villains down to just ten minfigures, but here it goes our top 10 Lego Marvel Superheroes minfigures. 10 - Ant-Man - 76109 Quantum Realm Explorers  This Ant-Man minfigures is without a doubt the best variant that we currently have for the character. Of course Lego did release an Ant-Man in a time heist suit from Avengers: Endgame with an updated screen accurate sealed helmet but for me its the torso and leg design wh...

Continuing with the Lego Marvel mechs review from yesterday we have set 76141 Thanos Mech. The mech itself contains 145 pieces and a Thanos minifigure and retails for £8.99 over here in the UK. Thanos: This is the first true minifigure scale Thanos that we have got men since the Lego Marvel superhero theme started. The figure itself has a highly detailed torso and leg print which is rare in Lego Marvel figures and an appropriate angry face for the character. Personally the only downside to this minifigure is the helmet, personally the helmet is way too bright but it’s the best they could do for a minifigure version of Thanos at this scale. The build: Just like the Iron Man Mech Thanos Mech is built very similar. The set features moveable limbs built on ball joint led sockets and features a lot of nice gold armour that covers the overall mech. The most impressive feature is the Infinity Gauntlet which includes all six infinity stones, apart from being a bit to ...

The Lego Star Wars theme doesn't just make minifugre scale and playsets based on vehicles and locations from the highly popular Star Wars franchise but also produces a wide range of highly detailed and larger scale sets targeted to an adult collector audience. Today we take a look back at the Lego Star Wars UCS line and choose our top 10 sets. 10 - 10277 B-Wing - 1487 pieces - £169.99 I have always been a fan of the B-Wing design and own the newest version of the iconic ship in regular scale sets, but the UCS B-wing is an absolutely stunning version including a highly detailed exterior, a rotating cockpit located at the top of the vehicle and a display stand allowing you to display the vehicle in flight, which is honestly one of the best ways to display the set. The set doesn't include any minifugres unlike newer UCS sets but the detailing sure makes up for that. 9 - 75144 Snowspeeder - 1703 pieces - £169.99 There have been two iterations of the U...

Lego Marvel 30453 Captain Marvel and Nick Fury is one the latest Lego polybags to be released un the Lego Marvel Superhero’s lime. The set itself is based on the first encounter of Captain Marvel and Nick Fury from Captain Marvel releases in 2019. Whilst the build itself is rather small it’s the minifigures that really stand out in this polybag. Captain Marvel:  Captain Marvel is seen wearing her alter Starforce suit from the beginning of Captain Marvel. What’s interesting about this figure is that it was originally released last year as part of a SDCC (San Diageo Comic Con) set. Due to this figure being released only in that set at the times it became really hard to get for collectors, lucky enough for those of us who missed out on the minifigure we finally have the exact same version here in this polybag. Captain Marvel features a highly detailed blue Starforce outfit with some excellent detailing, the figure contains an alternate face...
