Review: LEGO Duplo 10962 Buzz Lightyear’s Planetary Mission

By |2022-10-05T19:13:50+01:00October 5th, 2022|LEGO Reviews|

At our Play Centre in Wokingham we have a special play area dedicated to DUPLO bricks. This is a great space for younger children that enjoy the play experience that DUPLO sets offer. We are always on the look out for new sets to add to our collection for our Mini Master Builders to play with. Today we picked up the Buzz Lightyear's Planetary Mission DUPLO Set 10962. At the time of purchasing there was a good deal on Amazon for the set - check out the latest price here. The LEGO Duplo 10962 Buzz Lightyear's Planetary Mission set is designed for children aged 2 years and up. I am sure that any child who has seen the Lightyear film or any of the Toy Story films would enjoy this set. Buzz's Spaceship is the highlight of the set, it has two blue booster flames that are added onto the back. It has a space to sit Buzz and a passenger. The set itself comes with a basic instruction booklet on how to put the small space base together and is no more than a 5 minute build but the value of Duplo is in the play aspect of the sets. I can imagine that children will really utilise [...]

Review: LEGO CITY 60348 Lunar Roving Vehicle

By |2022-10-04T17:26:45+01:00October 4th, 2022|LEGO Reviews|

This week at Brickies we will be delivering our Thursday Home Education session on 'Life in Space' and we decided to link in the topic to the NASA Artemis Mission. Which meant we had the perfect opportunity to build and play with the LEGO City 60348 Lunar Roving Vehicle which is based on the Artemis Rover Vehicle concepts. The RRP of the set is £29.99 but we managed to pick it up a bit cheaper from Amazon. Check out the latest price here. When unboxing this LEGO City set you are greeted with three bags of building joy. Bag one dives straight in with the Minifigures and in my opinion the best element of the set, the crystallised boulder. I have seen many of a LEGO boulder but this one is special with its blue crystal fragments inside and speckled glimpses of the crystal from the outside too. This will be a much desired piece at Brickies especially as the blue translucent crystals are always a favourite, so combined with a boulder it will likely cause quite a reaction! I personally think the LEGO Minifigures that come with this Lunar Roving Vehicle set are great. My favourite element is the torso of what appears to be the driver of the Lunar Vehicle. [...]
