Pictures of the next massive LEGO City play set — 60200 Capital — have just arrived on Amazon UK. The set includes three buildings, 6 vehicles, a playground and 12 minifigures. So far we have no details on the price of the set and its release date, but it is safe to say that the set will be available this Summer. LEGO CITY 60200 Capital being the size of several regular CITY sets will be the next in the line of 60026 Town Square and 60097 City Square, but this is the first time a hotel and a double-decker will appear in the LEGO City.

Although most of the spring wave of LEGO Star Wars sets have been focused on Solo: A Star Wars Story, the Classic Trilogy hasn’t been forgotten. LEGO returns to Dagobah with 75208 Yoda’s Hut. The set includes three minifigures with 229 LEGO pieces, and retails for $29.99 in the US. We’ve focused a lot of our reviews lately on large sets like 75212 Kessel Run Millennium Falcon and the forthcoming UCS Y-wing (look for our review later this week), so it’s nice to take a bit of a break with a smaller LEGO Star Wars set. Let’s dig in! The box & instructions The pieces for Yoda’s swampy abode come in a pair of numbered bags, with the single instruction booklet loose in the box. Our instruction booklet wasn’t creased or otherwise damaged, which is no surprise with a booklet that’s about the same size as the box. We’ve often argued...

When it comes to cars, Italy has a well-established pedigree. You may have heard of Fiat and Ferrari, but have you heard of Lancia? If not, let Lukasz Libuszewski educate you with his classy-looking 1922 Lancia Lambda. When it was introduced the Lambda was truly ahead of its time, in part because of its unibody construction and independent front suspension. Lukasz’s version is a marvel of minifigure-scale engineering, as he has managed to capture elegant curves and angles in such a small model. The stacked wedge plates make for excellent hood louvers (the slotted design that helps ventilate the engine), and the minifig hands make for nice side mirrors. Hop on in and drive away!

Builder John Cheng brings us two lovable characters from a Magical Kingdom not so far away. They’ve been friends and buddies for close to 80 years! However, with all best friends, there are bad days when things just don’t go as well as they should. I’m not sure what Donald ever did to Mickey, but I don’t think he deserves this treatment. With that dreadful look that Mickey has, this may not be the mouse we know and love—something terrible must have gone wrong. I do however like how the builder used the recently introduced round 1×1 quarter tiles in red to give Mickey’s eyes that menacing and crazy look. There were better times, of course, when friendships were meant to last forever. I certainly hope they were not fighting over LEGO bricks!

Chungpo Cheng, that’s who! You might remember Chungpo’s work from a few weeks ago when we shared his stunning, super-sized Star Wars battle droids. This time, he chose to make big versions of the classic LEGO owl, rat and “cheese slope” elements. In particular, the owl is packed with lots of personality. Those big eyes and upturned eyebrows make Chungpo’s owl look warm and approachable. I almost want to hand-feed the little guy some birdseed! Chungpo has sculpted an excellent likeness of the original owl piece. He has even photographed the two side-by-side for comparison. It’s also pretty cool to see the brick-built rat next to its little LEGO sibling. The post Who....Who....Who can make an amazing owl? appeared first on The Brothers Brick.
