The LEGO booth at Toy Fair this year only showcased one buildable or “constraction” figure, a new Darth Maul figure. Several other buildable figures from the spring 2018 wave have been revealed today, including Han Solo and the Range Trooper from the upcoming Han Solo movie. 75535 Han Solo – 101 pieces – $24.99 A young Han Solo gets the constraction figure treatment with a unique head, plus a large blaster rifle and blaster pistol. 75536 Range Trooper – 101 pieces – $24.99 The Range Trooper is a new, all-white stormtrooper variant with a helmet similar to the Shore Troopers in Rogue One.

It’s usually a good idea to liven up the standard sci-fi grey builds with a few bright accent colours. Builder Chris Perron has taken that to another level with this mech build, which is half boring grey, and half of the brightest green LEGO makes. Aside from the colour difference, notice that the grey areas are relatively flat and uniform, while the green ones are more wild, using a tonne of little pieces to add in as much detail as possible. I see telephones, Bionicle masks and a lot of Hero Factory minifig legs built in here. There’s also an alien platen build for the mech to be posed on and a few soldiers to accompany it.

After seeing some in-person views of the Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition at New York Toy Fair last month, like many of you we were keen to get our hands on 76105 The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition as soon as possible. The set, based on Iron Man’s Hulkbuster armor seen in Avengers: Age of Ultron, includes 1,363 pieces and an exclusive Iron Man minifigure. It’s priced at US $119.99 / CA $149.99 / DE 129.99€ / UK £119.99 / DK 1199DKK. In the Box Inside the somewhat oversized box, there are nine numbered bags and one additional un-numbered bag that contained the larger parts used for the base.The set has a single 183-page instruction booklet, and inside there are LEGO Infinity War tie-in sets pictured, but no other Hulkbuster related details. Most of the time with large special edition sets we see concept artwork, designer information or design-related information in the instruction manual, but this...
I love when a builder takes an existing LEGO set and creates an alternative model. Dvd has gone one step further with his Exo-Recon Walker, using the parts from Peter Reid’s successful LEGO Ideas set #21109 Exo-Suit to recreate another of Peter’s designs, the Recon Walker. Not only that, but Dvd has even been so kind as to include an LDD File so if you have the Ideas set, you can build your own Exo-Recon Walker!

This microscale scene by Nicolas Kolbeck is instantly recognizable to any Harry Potter fan as the eclectic wizard village found on the other side of a brick wall behind the Leaky Cauldron in London. Even more impressive than the many details that stand out, like the angled windows of Olivander’s shop and the leaning pillars of Gringot’s Bank, is how recognizable the various miniature characters are. Notice the fez part used as a skirt for Hermione, and see if you can name the rest. The post Someone cast Reducio on Diagon Alley appeared first on The Brothers Brick.
