Review: 71052 Series 29 from LEGO® Minifigures

I'm excited to collaborate today with a new guest, Four Bricks Tall (@fourbrickstall on Instagram) – a wonderful photographer of minifigures (and even humans). She is also the community manager of Stud Shooters, a toy photography community on Reddit, and has regularly had her photographs published by The LEGO Group. 

LEGO® Minifigures Series 29 has been dubbed a "classic" series and brings back a non-IP, non-all-costume lineup of 12 characters to collect. But within that classic moniker, we do get throwbacks to at least three beloved themes: LEGO® BIONICLE®, LEGO® NINJAGO® and LEGO® Monster Fighters! It's also worth noting the anniversaries behind two of those nods: 2026 marks 25 years of LEGO Bionicle and 15 years of LEGO Ninjago, which gives this series an extra layer of significance for longtime fans.

Review: 77984 Jurassic Park Jeep® Wrangler from LEGO® Jurassic World

"Objects in this knoll are newer than they appear."

Today we take a look at the parts, printed elements and build of 77984 Jurassic Park Jeep® Wrangler, as featured in the original Jurassic Park movie from 1993.

Review: LEGO® GwP 40907 Restaurants of the World – Mexico

The gift with purchase (GwP) currently running until 19 April 2026 (or while stocks last), LEGO® 40907 Restaurants of the World: Mexico, continues the collectible theme started by the Japanese sushi bar set 40906 just six weeks ago. Is it worthy of the US$180/ £160/ 180€/ AU$260/ NZ$285 threshold, and how does the taco compare to the sushi? Let's tuck in! 

Review: 43025 Nike Air Max 95 x LEGO® Set from LEGO® Editions

The recent partnership between Nike and The LEGO Group has already resulted in several sets, and today we’re walking on air with the latest addition. Where the other sets were based on already existing Nike shoes, this time we get a shoe specifically designed for the partnership, in both LEGO and real-life form. 

What are the new LEGO® parts in April 2026 sets?

I've created a list showing the 145 new LEGO® elements within the April 2026 sets, with links to which sets they come in, in case you wish to purchase.

Meanwhile, some new Pick a Brick elements have dropped on PaB on April 1.

Review: 11506 Rocking Plants from LEGO® Botanicals

Happy days are here again – and this time, we're rockin'! LEGO® Botanicals' huge 2025 hit for young and old builders alike, 10349 Happy Plants, expands the family in 2026 with the succulent 11506 Rocking Plants. Obviously the cuteness factor remains sky high, but is this new set grounded in a healthy offering of new elements? The answer is a resounding yes. Let's rock!

Creating classic Tintin® minifigures from LEGO® Ideas 21367 Tintin Moon Rocket

Our earlier review of 21367 Tintin® Moon Rockets took a detailed look at the newest LEGO® Ideas set, but there seemed to be a lot of discussion around the minifigures all wearing spacesuits.  The set designers explained that this was a requirement from the Tintin IP holders, as they wanted the minifigures to be wearing their appropriate outfits from Explorers on the Moon.

I thought it would be interesting to try and use official LEGO minifigure elements to change the Tintin characters into their more classic clothing. Let's just say that altering Snowy in his spacesuit proved tricky!

LEGO® Pick a Brick: April 2026 new elements

It's a small month, because these are pieces from December 2025 sets, but that means some of the new pieces from the LEGO® Spring Festival sets 80118 Fortune Firecracker, 80119 Galloping Horse Canvas and 40864 Fortune Master!

There are a couple of odd ones in there too: a wheel from January 2026's 11370 Stranger Things: The Creel House, and stranger still, a white inverted curved slope from February's 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise.

Brick Round, Quarter 1 x 1 (LEGO® part 7532)

While we do not have a copy of LEGO® Pokémon 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise to review, I was intrigued by one of the new elements that is exclusively found in this set (at least at the time of writing).

A few clicks later and I bought a handful of the new mould Brick Round, Quarter 1 x 1 on the secondary market, to take a closer look.
