LEGO Jurassic World Rebirth 76970 Baby Dinosaur Dolores: Aquilops – Cretaceous cutie

The plot of Jurassic World: Rebirth hinges on tracking down genetic samples from the biggest dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for the original Jurassic Park. It also introduces the Aquilops, a plant-eating ceratopsian roughly the size of a housecat. And it’s a baby! Alongside the line of action playsets, LEGO will help you build your own baby Aquilops from 339 pieces. Available on June 1 for US $27.99 | CAN $29.99 | UK £19.99, 76970 Baby Dinosaur Dolores: Aquilops is the most  affordable set in the latest Jurassic collection. It follows in the tiny dino footsteps of Baby Bumpy: Ankylosaur, a set we found to be a true delight for a great price. How does Dolores measure up as a buildable baby dino friend?

LEGO Art breaks free from the frame with 31216 Keith Haring – Dancing Figures [News]

Keith Haring is one of those artists whose work you will almost certainly recognise, but not necessarily know by name. Initially, he was a street artist, painting walls in a style that became instantly identifiable. Next month, you can adorn your walls with his work too – but you won’t need any spray paint! 31216 Keith Haring – Dancing Figures is the latest work to enter the LEGO Art gallery. 1,773 pieces make up the quintet of figures, which appear to be based on the posthumous The Dance (1992) lithograph, itself based on Untitled (Dance) created in 1987. With an RRP of US $119.99 | CAN $149.99 | UK £104.99, 31216 Keith Haring – Dancing Figures will hit shelves and walls this May 15th.

LEGO Jurassic World 76972 Raptor Off-Road Escape and 76975 T. rex River Escape – Jurassic Classics [Review]

Every new Jurassic movie adds at least one new dino species or hybrid, and this summer’s Jurassic World: Rebirth looks to be no exception. But the franchise also loves bringing back the original MVPs – T.Rex and Velociraptor – who, like Godzilla, have become the heroes as much as monsters. Each of these legends gets its own set in LEGO’s line of Rebirth sets in the form of 76972 Raptor Off-Road Escape and 76975 T. rex River Escape. The sets contain 286 and 199 pieces, respectively, and will be available on June 1. You can pre-order now for  US $39.99 | CAN $44.99 | UK £29.99 (Raptor) and US $49.99 | CAN $64.99 | UK £44.99 (T.Rex). 32 years after Spielberg and co turned them into stars, does this dino duo still shine?

LEGO Jurassic World Rebirth 76976 Spinosaurus & Quetzalcoatlus Air Mission – Paging Johnny Thunder [Review]

Three years after Jurassic World: Dominion closed the book on two generations of scientists and park staff, the franchise is back with a new cast, a new director (Rogue One‘s Gareth Edwards), and, most importantly, a new island full of deadly dinosaurs to escape from in Jurassic World: Rebirth. In advance of the film’s debut this July, LEGO is releasing 6 sets, with the biggest of them all being LEGO Jurassic World Rebirth 76976 Spinosaurus & Quetzalcoatlus Air Mission. The playset packs in two large dinosaur figures, four minifigs, two vehicles, and a substantial ruin that doubles as a dino nest and brings big Adventurers energy. It also sports the biggest pricetag yet for a Jurassic playset. This epic Air Mission is available on June 1 and can be pre-ordered now for US $159.99 | CAN $199.99 | UK £139.99. Is it worth a braving a detour to InGen’s lost island to pick it up? Let us be your guide.

LEGO Star Wars 75416 Chopper – Rebel droid and a live wire [Review]

In a galaxy of larger-than-life heroes and villains, it’s the humble droids who serve as the heart of Star Wars. They also make excellent LEGO subjects, appearing in buildable form at a range of scales and complexity. Last year LEGO released a new version of R2-D2 that struck a nice balance between detail and affordability. This May the Fourth, LEGO debuts another astromech at the same scale: LEGO Star Wars 75416 Chopper (C1-10P), built from 1,039 pieces. The opinionated droid crew member of the Ghost features a wobbly head and poseable arms and tools. The set debuts on May 1 and can be pre-ordered now for  US $99.99 | CAN $129.99 | UK £94.99Is this the droid you’re looking for?
