LEGO today unveils the set 21337 Soccer table, a new benchmark in the LEGO Ideas range loosely based on the winning creation of a competition organized in 2021 on the platform that is used to collect ideas from fans.

In the box of 2339 pieces, there is not much left of the reference creation, submitted by Donát Fehérvári and which promised us a real playable football table 55 cm long by 30 cm wide with 11 players on each side distributed on the bars (see photo below), apart from the general idea. There may be disappointment...

LEGO still includes 22 minifigs divided into two teams of 11 players with their respective outfits and a slew of faces (44) and hair (43) for everyone to find their account. There is even a character equipped with a hearing aid and another affected by vitiligo. The micro football table measures 41 cm long by 29 cm wide and 15 cm high.

LEGO tells us in passing that Thierry Henry and Marcus Rashford are on hand to promote the product with a thick layer of "football brings people together, just like this club".

You will have to pay €249.99 from November 1, 2022 to buy a copy of this box via the official online store and in LEGO Stores.

We will talk about this box in more detail in a few days on the occasion of a Review .

Today we take a very quick tour of the content of the LEGO Marvel set 76214 Black Panther: War on the Water, a box of 545 pieces sold at the public price of €89.99 since October 1, 2022. It's war on the water. The title is very explicit, it is a war on water.

We therefore deduce that the big thing to build is a boat. This is also confirmed by the official description of the product which tells us that it is the Royal Sea Leopard, the royal leopard of the seas. It's a boat. A little reassured by this confirmation that the thing floats, we therefore calmly build the boat with the false air of a futuristic yacht knowing that it is the big boat whose sides we briefly see in the first teaser of the film. Unless it's just the tip of a submarine. On a different scale.

And this boat doesn't have much to offer apart from the few Technic beams that make up the bottom and the large elements that form the hull. There is indeed a cell there which, according to the official visuals, allows King Namor to be locked up, but that's all. The rest softly evokes the bow of a larger ship and the cockpit is here hidden behind the front of the machine. I also took a little time to realize that the transparent parts at the front are intended to allow the driver to find his way.

The boat is obviously powered by two reactors using technology exclusive to Wakanda and there are all the tools and accessories necessary to repair things or put out a possible fire with the usual bag containing a cross for removing car wheels, a spanner knob, an oil can or a screwdriver and two fire extinguishers. It was necessary to include something to "play" a little with this product.

It looks like a piece of the boat is missing or at least something on the deck, but we'll have to wait to see what this product derived from the film is really inspired by. Black Panther Wakanda Forever to get to the bottom of it. It is quite possible that the LEGO version is really very faithful to the reference boat. No just kidding. I was able to meet the designer of the set during the Fan Media Days which were taking place in Billund a few days ago and he was not very sure of himself. He worked from information provided by Disney and by his own admission, the pitch was very thin.

Either way, there's not much to do here beyond a few minutes and there's none for $90 even with the two supplied "pop-up rotor" drones. The two mini-constructions flanked by stickers are identical but I do not know, the designer either, who they are aiming with their Stud Shooters side. It's confusing, but we can imagine Namor attacking the yacht and ending up in a cell.

We have a big handful of minifigs left to collect in this box with Black Panther, King Namor, Ironheart MK2, M'Baku and Okoye. The assortment is interesting, there is enough to fill a few boxes of your Ribba frames with these different characters or variants. The Namor figurine is identical to the one available in the set 76213 King Namor's Throne Room (355 pieces - 34.99 €), the other characters are unpublished in this form.

Fans of Riri Williams alias Ironheart are served with a variant of the character who is here equipped with her armor in Mark 2 version. These are therefore already two figurines of the young heiress of Tony Stark who join our collections after the Mark 1 version of the set 76211 Shuri's Sunbird (355 pieces - €49.99). Riri is here provided with a hair that allows you to enjoy the character without a helmet, a one-piece molded accessory already used to the limit by LEGO but nicely stamped for the occasion. We will obviously be entitled to the Mark 3 version of the armor of the character introduced in this film with a series which should arrive soon on the Disney + platform.

The figures of M'Baku and Okoye seem successful to me, the outfits are convincing despite the neutral legs and the faces are rather detailed. Too bad for the lack of pad printing on the legs, even Black Panther pays the price for this economical choice.

We're not going to lie to each other any longer, everyone will have understood that it's Shuri who wears the Black Panther costume in the film. The front of the box tries to leave a little suspense but the back of the packaging sells the wick with the girl's head resting on Black Panther's chest. This new variant of the character does not demerit with a well-executed torso and mask, it will join the previous versions in our collections.

In short, not enough to cry creative genius with this box which ultimately only has the merit of offering us a handful of new characters and rather well interpreted. It's already good, but 90 € for that, it's way too expensive. We will therefore wisely wait for a brand to offer us this derivative product at a much lower price before cracking.

Note: The set presented here, provided by LEGO, is as usual involved. Deadline fixed at 12th October, 2022 next at 23:59 p.m. Just post a comment under the article to participate.
