This is the promotional product currently offered by LEGO to fans of the Marvel Super Heroes range: the polybag 30451 Spider-Man's Mini Spider Crawler is automatically added to the basket as soon as your order reaches the minimum amount of € 35 in products from the LEGO Marvel range.

In the bag, 73 pieces to assemble a micro version of the Spider Crawler seen in the set 76114 Spider-Man's Spider Crawler (39.99 €) and a Spider-Man minifigure already seen in many boxes.

While one might wonder why Spider-Man would need such a contraption, the buildable mini mechanical spider in this polybag is pretty cool with its eight adjustable legs and crude "cockpit". The assembly here is necessarily a little repetitive with the eight legs based on the same model.

As I said above, the minifig is obviously not exclusive to this polybag, it is the same as the one already delivered in many boxes and other polybags since 2012. So you already have at least one somewhere in your drawers if you are a fan of Spider-Man.

As usual, it will be noted that the red area of ​​the torso is much less luminous than the head and the hands. Red on blue, it's bound to be a bit dull dark red at LEGO.

In short, not enough to get up at night, but as the offer is currently cumulative with those which allow you to double your VIP points and to be offered the LEGO Ideas set 40335 Space Rocket Ride (from 85 € of purchase) and the Creator polybag 30571 Pelicans (from 35 € of purchase), you might as well take advantage ...

Note: The polybag shown here, supplied by LEGO, is used as usual. To participate in the draw, all you have to do is post a comment (avoid "I participate, I try, etc ..." be a little more constructive) on this article before the July 16, 2019 at 23:59 p.m..

Today we take a quick look at the LEGO Harry Potter set 75957 The Knight Bus (403 pieces - 39.99 €), a box based on the four minutes of the film Harry Potter and the Prisonnier d'Azkaban during which we saw Harry take the Magicobus (Knight Bus).

This is not the first time that LEGO offers a reproduction of the bus, the vehicle has already been available in two boxes in the past: 4755 Knight Bus (243 pieces - 2004) and 4866 The Knight Bus (257 pieces - 2011). I think we will all agree at least on one point, the 2019 version is the most successful of the three aesthetically, it also uses more parts.

We start with a reproach: the purple coins (Medium Lilac) are not all the same shade and I think that this always embarrassing lack of uniformity deserves to be underlined because I am not the type to self-persuade myself that it looks "vintage" ...

Regarding the assembly of the Magicobus, nothing very complicated: we build from the bottom to the top, we align the many windows, we put the upper floor, we stick some stickers and voila. The large integrated side door provides access to the interior of the vehicle which is logically very narrow. For those who still believe in Santa Claus: there is no direction, the bus drives straight ahead.

Difficult to criticize the realization, it is much better than the previous versions and apart from the upper stage with the somewhat hazardous curves, it is rather well done. It spoils in fact copiously at the front and at the back of the top floor of the bus with on one side an empty space left under the purple arches and on the other a separate module to build and clip which struggles a little to convince to form the angle of the front of the bus.

As this is a reduced model of the Magicobus, everything is obviously more symbolic than truly representative. So you get a bed instead of five or six and LEGO has even provided a very simple slide so that the bed moves when the bus is moving. Not enough to cry genius, but the wink is there.

The chandelier that hangs from the ceiling of the bus is here well interpreted and swings on its axis to do as in the film. The standard LEGO steering wheel held by Ernie Danlmur (Ernie Prang) would have benefited from being replaced by a model with a larger diameter, but we will do with it.

The cover of the Daily Prophet delivered in this box (see photo below) is unfortunately not the one seen on the screen when Stan Rocade (Stan Shunpike) announces to Harry that Sirius Black has escaped. We must be satisfied with the one already delivered in the sets 75953 Hogwarts Whomping Willow et 75955 Hogwarts Express. The scene in my opinion deserved a special piece.

On the minifig side, we can regret that the Harry Potter minifigure is a bit sloppy. The outfit of the figurine has indeed not much to do with that of the character in the scene concerned, except perhaps for the blue t-shirt.

The white stripes on the jacket sleeves are missing and the leg color is incorrect. In addition, Harry Potter is delivered in this set with its trunk which is here replaced by a classic chest whose shape is not really suitable.

The minifigure of Ernie Danlmur (Ernie Prang), the driver of the Magicobus, is rather approximate. We can discuss the interest of the piece which serves here as a hairstyle / bald head, the character not being totally bald but just fairly bald.

Small technical detail, the sleeves of the shirt are well planned to be the same color as the visible part of said shirt on the torso of the character. Unfortunately, LEGO spoils the party with too dull pad printing and the shirt effect no longer works. Again, don't be fooled by the official visuals which feature a perfectly dressed Ernie Danlmur ...

Stan Rocade (Stan Shunpike) is the most successful of the three characters delivered here. Her outfit is consistent with that of the film and the character's face is cohesive. The detailed pad printing of the torso even incorporates the ticket machine worn by the character.

Here, too, LEGO doesn't do miracles when it comes to printing a light color on a dark background. On official retouched visuals, the shirt is white. In real life, she turns gray.

The symbol on the character's cap is also missing and the red band is a bit empty on the minifig. It's a detail for some, but with this type of set, I think it's all in the details.

The joker's shrunken head on the front of the Magicobus (see above) is very correct with a facial expression faithful to the one seen in the film and even some dreadlocks stamped on the piece.

History to make pass a little better the pill of 40 € requested by LEGO for this box and to add an additional playful possibility, a granny with her walker would have been welcome ...

In short, this set is pretty decent but when you're doing fan service, you might as well do it down to the smallest detail. Fans of the Harry Potter universe will not have waited for my opinion to buy this set anyway and many will be content with this new version of the purple bus which refers to a very popular scene.

Too bad for the somewhat hazardous finish of the top floor of the bus and for the few approximations at the level of the minifigs, but seen from afar on a shelf, it's fine.

THE SET 75957 THE KNIGHT BUS ON THE LEGO SHOP >>

Note: The set shown here, supplied by LEGO, is included as usual. To participate in the draw, all you have to do is post a comment (avoid "I participate, I try, etc ..." be a little more constructive) on this article before the July 10, 2019 at 23:59 p.m.. You have every right to disagree with me, this is not eliminatory.

Update : The winner was drawn and was notified by email, his nickname is indicated below. Without a response from him to my request for contact details within 5 days, a new winner will be drawn.

Today we are interested in the LEGO Batman set 76119 Batmobile: Pursuit of The Joker (342 pieces - 29.99 €), a box whose name is a little misleading: what suit LEGO is talking about? The Joker is on foot and he won't get far.

In short, in this set, it's about building a Batmobile that will bring back memories to fans of Tim Burton's Batman and to the happy owners of the very successful set. 7784 The Batmobile Ultimate Collector's Edition marketed in 2006.

But let's not dream, at 30 € a box, the version of the vehicle offered here is only 24 cm long and will not clutter your shelves. However, this Batmobile does not deserve with a very correct finish and even some features that bring a little playability.

I will spare you my opinion on "the construction experience", the 300 parts of the vehicle are assembled very quickly. In terms of fun features, the rear engine spins as the vehicle moves. Said like that, it seems trivial, but on a set at 30 € it's already not so bad.

Two Stud Shooters are placed on the sides of the Batmobile and they are even retractable. It borders on the overbidding of features without disfiguring the machine, well done for that. The cockpit is rather detailed and can accommodate Batman with his mask on his head without having to force the roof of the vehicle. It's a detail, but on some sets the cockpits are not always so spacious.

The hubcaps of the Batmobile are pad printed, there is also no sticker in this box and it is important to underline it. If you lose a hubcap, LEGO will provide you with an extra copy in the box. LEGO does not forget in passing to deliver us about fifteen Batarangs in all sizes, one of which serves as a mobile grille under which are hidden two air intakes.

The ground clearance of the vehicle is very low, which is also what gives it looks but it is a detail that can affect the playability depending on the surfaces on which you will have fun with it. The finish is exemplary, nothing sticks out and there are only the few tenons visible on the body which betray the fact that this is a LEGO model and not a model.

In short, there is no reason to go without this very successful and relatively affordable Batmobile. It can be displayed alone on the corner of the shelf where you store your comics and / or be associated with the Batcave of the set 76122 Batcave Clayface Invasion which we will talk about shortly. LEGO could at least have provided at least one bike for the Joker, just to live up to the title of the set.

As for the minifigs provided in this box, I'm a little less enthusiastic. There is undoubtedly a little weariness towards Batman whose multiple copies and other variations accumulate in my drawers. The same goes for the Joker.

The Batman minifigure delivered here is new but it is also identical in the four new boxes (ref. 76118 to 76122) marketed for a few days. The character's face suffers from the usual problem that LEGO encounters when it comes to pad printing a light color on a dark background. It is really disappointing. The torso is successful, but we have the impression of having seen this type of pattern already a hundred times in the past.

The torso of the Joker minifigure is also new and really exclusive to this set, at least for now. For those wondering where they've seen this version of the character before, it's the one from the LEGO DC Super Villains video game launched in 2018, minus the designs on the arms.

LEGO had the good idea to use a purple torso and pad the green elements on it which are roughly the same shade as the character's arms. The jacket is therefore perfectly matched to the legs and the minifigure is visually very successful. The head is not new, it is that of the character delivered in the Juniors set 10753 The Joker Batcave Attack (2018)

In summary, this is arguably one of the most successful Batmobiles in the history of the DC Comics range that LEGO offers us here. The model is compact but it is roughly on the scale of minifigs, it pays homage to a cult set and it takes me back a few years back to the time when Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson donned the Batman and Jack costumes respectively. Joker. Just for that, I say yes.

Today we are quickly interested in the LEGO Harry Potter set 75948 Hogwarts Clocktower (922 pieces - 99.99 €), a box which is at the same time a new extension of the modular Hogwarts version System launched in 2018 and which is also a set based on the Christmas ball (yule ball) seen in the movie Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, with eight characters delivered in the gala outfits appearing in this scene from the film.

From the outside, the construction fits perfectly into the overall model imagined by the designers. We logically find the same architectural style as in the sets 75953 Hogwarts Whomping Willow, and 75954 Hogwarts Great Hall, the same walls, the same roofs and the same stickers for a perfect visual continuity between the different constructions which come together to form a Hogwarts both visually convincing and playable.

As usual, the stickers that must be stuck on the walls are still not the same color as the rooms on which they are placed. Too bad for a toy at 100 €.

As this is a set of characters in ballroom attire, LEGO logically includes the mini-ballroom with rotating merry-go-round which allows the minifigs to be staged two by two on the supports provided and to bring everything to life. manually by rotating the gray plate placed under the various white platforms.

It's minimalist and not really fun, but as usual, we know it's there in reference to the scene concerned and that will suffice for most fans. There were probably several possible solutions to integrate a discreet mechanism that would have allowed the merry-go-round to turn without putting your fingers in it, but the designer chose to ignore this possibility.

The rest of what one might call the "ballroom" is materialized only by a few tables on which are placed glasses and crystals and by a snowy fir tree. These different elements are not directly connected to the main construction, while a simple white or gray base plate covered with Tiles could have given the place a little more flair.

The fragile parts are slipped into the same bags as those which are less afraid of displacement and jolts, this results in some very annoying scratches on some of them. I know the brand's customer service is very good, but it's always unpleasant not to have a product in perfect condition the first time. My copy is no exception to the rule and it is the small clock which has suffered some damage.

The crank accessible from the infirmary side allows the hands of the big clock to move. The two hands are integral with each other, so you must first choose the minutes before changing the hour.

The construction being planned to enlarge the basic version of Hogwarts, we find here new emblematic spaces of the cinematographic saga including the school infirmary with its blue screens. The furniture present is well made and the place is large enough to place minifigs, but it is as usual at LEGO a very symbolic representation of the place. We can regret the absence of Madam Pomfrey in this box, knowing that the infirmary occupies an important place of construction here.

Below is the room in which the Defense Against the Dark Arts classes take place, or rather the only office which serves as a symbolic representation here. There is also a book with a page representing the Levitation spell. It's too minimalist to be really convincing, but I note that an effort has been made on the layout of the place with many accessories.

Aldus Dumbledore's desk is oddly placed under the roof here, and the LEGO version doesn't quite pay homage to the spacious circular desk seen in the movies with its book shelves and side stairs. Dumbledore cannot sit down due to the piece used to represent the character's tunic and therefore cannot sit properly behind his desk. Fawkes and the Sorting Hat are present in the office, but only via two very large stickers on the walls.

The prefects 'bathroom passes here from the fifth floor to the ground floor, no password is needed to enter it, the building overlooks the courtyard of Hogwarts ... No golden egg and that' is a shame but fortunately the stained glass with the stylized mermaid in LEGO sauce (it's a sticker difficult to apply correctly) is however very successful.

Barely playable walls, roofs and micro spaces that refer to iconic locations from the Harry Potter cinematic saga, that's good. But a big assortment of new minifigs is even better. And as the Harry Potter range is very popular with minifig collectors, we are entitled to quibble a little about the finish of these figurines.

LEGO delivers eight characters in this set: Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Fleur Delacour, Cedric Diggory, Viktor Krum, Albus Dumbledore and Madame Maxime. It is a very correct endowment even if on closer inspection the finish of certain figurines is very approximate and if obviously Parvati Patil is missing in this box ...

Harry Potter is here in a ball gown and the minifig features the mid-size articulated legs that make for a figure roughly on the scale of the other characters in the set. The character is dressed in a simple costume but faithful to the outfit seen on the screen. The white of the shirt and the bow tie fades against the black background, it's a shame. The same goes for Cedric Diggory's minifigure with a slightly dull shirt.

Viktor Krum's hair is much too trimmed compared to that of the character in the film. The holding of the minifig is very well done but this hair detail seems a little disappointing to me.

Ron Weasley's minifigure is relatively faithful in terms of the character's costume design, but the colors of the tunic seem poorly chosen to me. Bonus,. it is difficult to distinguish the patterns of the jacket which are almost tone on tone.

Neutral black legs for these four characters, it's a bit drab but it's in the spirit of the scene depicted.

Madame Maxime's minifig is very correct even if an effort could have been made to represent the patterns of the lace on her chest on a flesh-colored background. The junction of the patterns between the torso and the bottom of the dress is correct, the alignment is almost perfect.

It lacks patterns on Albus Dumbledore's hat which is not the right color as a bonus and the pad printing is not exceptionally precise with a very large gap between the torso and the bottom of the outfit of the two sides of the figurine. And that's not to mention the colors applied on the purple background which do not match those applied on the white background of the torso. It missed.

Fleur Delacour's dress is successful, but it lacks the pad-printed folds on the bottom of the garment embodied here by a neutral piece. The flesh color on both sides of the torso is far too light. LEGO still hasn't found a solution to this really annoying problem.

Hermione's half minifigure is the same size as Harry Potter's but at the cost of using standard parts. The dress is rather faithful even if the short sleeves of the outfit disappear here in favor of completely bare arms. small alignment problem between the torso and the bottom of the dress at the level of the knot, but we are used to LEGO ...

Hogwarts takes its ease with this third module to associate with the first two. The budget needed to have all of this luxury modular playset is also growing and now reaches more than 280 €. Think about it before you start: if you invest in one of the three sets concerned, you will not resist long before deciding to acquire the other two boxes. And that's without counting on the potential sets to come which may come to expand Hogwarts and dig a little deeper in your wallet.

The eight minifigs shipped here have their flaws, some of which are purely technical issues that LEGO still can't seem to fix, but they're never-before-seen, event-specific versions that we likely won't be seeing again in the LEGO Harry lineup anytime soon. Potter, then we'll have to deal with it.

In short, if you are a fan of the saga and have already started collecting the boxes released last year, you don't have much choice. For the others, this set has in my opinion a little trouble to be sufficient on its own with its micro-scenes and its minifigs which refer to a particular scene and which are therefore not sufficiently "generic" versions of the characters. main.

We finish this overview of LEGO Marvel sets inspired by the movie Spider-Man: Far from Home with the reference 76130 Stark Jet and the Drone Attack (504 pieces - 69.99 €) which stages as its name indicates the jet of the company Stark Industries which is undergoing a drone attack here.

With a plane and two drones, there is plenty of fun and that is the objective of this box intended for the youngest fans. The buildable jet is not a feat of creativity, just stack a few pieces and stick a few stickers on for a relatively solid and playable craft.

As usual, I recommend that you check the condition of the transparent parts when unpacking. The canopy provided here is prone to scratches as it walks around in its bag along with other parts. I know the trend is towards reducing plastic waste, but since at LEGO we are no longer within a few grams between the parts and the bags, I dream of an under-packaging that would properly protect these transparent parts.

Once is not customary, the cockpit of the plane is accessible to big fingers with a large mobile section that allows three characters to easily slide inside. The finish of the wings leaves a little to be desired, but we will do with it.

At the back, there is a large compartment, also easily accessible, which allows you to embark the three bombs provided. These will be dropped on drones or whatever you want to destroy.

As for the ship in the set 76126 Avengers Ultimate Quinjet, LEGO once again forgot to integrate landing gears on this jet which would have really looked a little better with a few wheels.

Under the plane, there is the hatch that allows you to bombard your target and incidentally to allow Spider-Man to swing at the end of his web. This hatch is opened by simply pressing the gray button on the back of the aircraft.

It is well done and correctly integrated so as not to disfigure the construction while providing a little playability, but in use, we quickly realize that it becomes impossible to open the hatch if the hand of the flying the craft is placed just below. This may be a detail for some of you, but it is a defect noticed by my son after only a few seconds of handling ...

The two drones delivered in this box are rather well designed and are equipped with Stud Shooters which fall perfectly under the user's fingers. The plane is also equipped with two cannons, so that the forces present are equal when it comes to looking for the small projectiles ejected on the floor of the chamber.

At the risk of sounding like I'm repeating myself, the difference in color between the stickers printed on a (really) white background and the parts whose color turns off-white is a bit disturbing. The patterns printed on the different stickers do not blend into their backing and I would have preferred transparent stickers. The same goes for the color of the canopy, which is not really coordinated with the rest of the cabin parts.

On the minifig side, it's a bit disappointing even if Nick Fury's minifig saves the day. It is new and for the moment exclusive to this box, even if it reuses the legs of General Hux and Severus Snape.

Harold "Happy" Hogan is failed and disappointing. The minifig does not look at all like Jon Favreau with the head of Kazuda Xiono, the young hero of the animated series Star Wars Resistance recently seen in the LEGO Star Wars set 75240 Major Vonreg's TIE Fighter.

The torso of this minifig can be considered generic, it is the one already used for the minifigs of Alfred Pennyworth (76052), Eli Mills (75930) and still for a henchman in a set from the LEGO Overwatch range (75971 ).

Spider-Man minifig is identical to the version delivered in sets based on the film Homecoming, 76083 Beware the Vulture (2017) et 76083 ATM Heist Battle (2017) and in the pack 40343 Spider-Man and the Museum Break-In.

Mysterio's minifigure is identical to the one already seen in the other two sets based on the film, and it still does not come with Jake Gyllenhaal's face.

In short, for the youngest, there is plenty of fun with the jet and the two drones, but collectors who relied on this box to obtain a Jon Favreau minifig will be at their cost with the generic minifigure offered by LEGO. There is still a nice version of Nick Fury who in my opinion does not deserve to spend 70 € in this box.
