While this set finds itself in the Creator Expert line, the actual build is far from expert level and is actually one of the simpler builds that I have encountered recently. There is some SNOT action and a little bit of sliding clips onto bars and bars and pins into holes and none of it is difficult…Read More

The Battle Bus is a blue bus, and not the blue bus Jim Morrison wrote about. Nope. The Battle Bus is basically a blue school bus and it is definitely not tricked out for battle as it does not feature any weapons: no guns, no shoot-yer-eye-out shooters, no cannons, no flamethrowers, no flick-fire…Read More

There’s a whole lot of something going on with this model, and then there’s some more, which poses the question of where to begin. This has to be the busiest mech model certainly in the Monkie Kid Line, and probably in the whole LEGO line. It’s busy with things to do and busy with things to look at…Read More

It turns out that 2024 is the year of Ninjago mechs, the latest of which is Cole’s Titan Dragon Mech. Cole’s mech is the largest of eight Ninjago mechs released in 2024. Is this a good mech in terms of play and build? I have no idea. So I turned to an expert for answers…Read More
