Despite appearing on our best parts of 2024 list, we've yet to actually analyse this ghoulish element in all its ethereal glory, but now that it is available on LEGO Pick a Brick in 2 colours, its time has come.

Review: 76289 Thor vs. Surtur Construction Figure from LEGO® Marvel
76289 Thor vs. Surtur Construction Figure takes its cues from 2017's Thor: Ragnarok. The giant fire demon, Surtur was predicted to destroy Asgard and is depicted here as a large-ish construction figure.
From an initial look, the parts are pretty, but I'm not sure everything about this set is going to Ragna-rock my world!

08 September 2024
Are the latest LEGO® Marvel sets worth the money?
As I have been reviewing the most recent wave of LEGO® Marvel sets, the issue of relative value has been troubling me increasingly. After building The Milano and Dancing Groot for review and being thoroughly happy with the value of those sets, I moved onto The Helicarrier and I was a little disappointed with what was on offer for the price. I actually felt a little mean about being so critical. Nevertheless, I embarked upon my analysis of set 76291 Avengers Assemble: Age of Ultron with a degree of pessimism.
Before proceeding further, I decided to investigate the relative cost of the August 2024 LEGO Marvel sets against other IP (intellectual property) sets and regular LEGO sets, to judge if my concerns were justified.

LEGO® Marvel review: 76297 Dancing Groot
I am Groot. Does he really need much more of an introduction than that? I am LEGO® Marvel 76297 Dancing Groot! There are only a few parts in the bags of Dancing Groot for us to report on and therefore our focus on parts is going to be a little short on content as a result.

LEGO® Marvel review: 76286 The Milano
I love a big spaceship! I won’t lie. A nice, big, ostentatious spaceship. If it is made out of plastic LEGO® bricks and all ready to be built by me and my son to start the school summer holidays off with a bang – then even better!

The LEGO Group is about to release its third “Ultimate Collector Series” (UCS) Bat-vehicle in a row, following the two sets inspired by Tim Burton’s movies - 76139 1989 Batmobile in 2019 and 76161 1989 Batwing in 2020.
