Bro Thor’s New Asgard Review – LEGO Infinity Saga 76200

September 23, 2021 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

This is a review of the LEGO Infinity Saga Bro Thor’s New Asgard, one of the 2021 set lineup and probably my favourite in this whole release! Why? Because it’s packed full of Easter Eggs including an Asgardian Pizza company and a LEGO Fortnite sticker. And 2 exceptional minifigures: Fat Thor and Korg! Watch on and let me know your thoughts!

LEGO MOC – 1967 Mini Cooper S Rally to Essex Boy Cooper S! (75894)

September 4, 2021 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

I’m a big fan of the 1967 Mini Cooper S Rally that came in set 75894. So much so that I decided to make it again in grey (the don’t make two of the parts it needs in dark green, or it would have been that). But I wasn’t happy with how it looked, so here’s how I modified the design to make me feel more at home in my native Essex. Bring on the Essex Boy Cooper S!

LEGO Haul: Let’s get Technic-al

June 26, 2021 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

It’s been a while since I’ve done a parts haul, and for this one, I thought I’d get a bit Technic-al. Ok, LEGO Technic jokes aside this was a parts order to bulk up my limited parts in this area and so I can start to add movement to my Pirates of Barracuda Bay rollercoaster.
