Review: LEGO Marvel 76279 Spider-Man Race Car & Venom Green Goblin

Today we are quickly interested in the content of the LEGO Marvel set 76279 Spider-Man Race Car & Venom Green Goblin, a small box of 227 pieces sold at the public price of €29.99 on the official online store. Not enough to get up at night with this little set without great pretensions but there is still plenty of fun to be had with three characters all equipped with their means of transport.

Spider-Man here inherits a car which is not of much use to him because he has more than enough means to avoid traffic jams, but the car is successful with an aggressive side, room for two characters inside. interior and two Stud Shooters rather well integrated at the front. It's colorful, it's pad printed and it rolls.

The Green Goblin has his glider in a black variant, and for good reason the character is "venomized" here and his means of movement is therefore logically matched to the figurine provided. It's a success, we find all the codes of "venomization" in the LEGO way and this version of the glider will do the trick. Gwen Stacy aka Ghost-Spider is content with a modest skateboard but it is sufficient and appropriate.

In terms of the construction experience offered, we can therefore conclude that it is rather very good knowing that we obtain as a bonus a canvas already seen in the set 76261 Spider-Man Final Battle which allows you to trap a figurine and hold it at arm's length. Practical for installing Green Goblin.

Fans of new parts or new colors available for the first time will have on hand here a matte blue windshield as well as a transparent windshield in dark Blue which we will undoubtedly see elsewhere later. We will also note the presence of the banana also delivered in the LEGO Marvel sets 76275 Motorcycle Chase: Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock (€9.99) and LEGO Friends 42604 Heartlake City Shopping Mall (119.99 €).

As for the three figurines provided in this box, that of Spider-Man with his pad-printed arms is also delivered in around ten boxes since 2021, that of Gwen Stacy was also in the sets 76178 Daily Bugle et 76174 Spider-Man's Monster Truck vs. Mysterio and only Green Goblin remains here "venomized" to expand the collection of the most dedicated fans.

The minifigure is nicely executed, the partially and totally venomized double face is perfect and the torso also seems very convincing to me. It's meager as it stands for a set sold for €30 but those, if any, who don't have Spider-Man or Gwen Stacy in this form will perhaps find what they're looking for. We can also consider "sharing" the product, with the youngest inheriting the more common minifigs and the family collector stealing and replacing Green Goblin with a less desirable version.

This is obviously not the set of the year, but I find that there is still something in this box to have fun if you are old enough to invent a few chase stories between superheroes and the vehicle construction sequence remains interesting. It's up to you.
