LEGO Marvel 76329 Miles Morales’ Mask [Review]

When LEGO launched its Star Wars helmet series, it may have seemed like a theme with limited opportunities, after all, there are only so many helmets in the franchise. However, the general structure easily translates to other pop-culture franchises, such as Marvel. The 2021 set LEGO Marvel 76199 Carnage was an adaptation of the concept, as a sculpted head of the red symbiote. And in 2024, LEGO Marvel 76285 Spider-Man’s Mask launched, which was a full head design that captured the look of Spider-Man’s iconic red and blue mask. The introduction of the alternate universe Spider-Man, Miles Morales, gave the titular hero a more gritty black and red mask that joins the line-up with LEGO Marvel 76329 Miles Morales’ Mask, which comes with 487 pieces and is currently available for pre-order and will be available in retail starting July 1st for US $69.99 | CAN $89.99 | UK £59.99

Miles “Mosaic” Morales

The Brothers Brick contributor Chris Doyle has conspired with  Alyse Middleton  on another large-scale LEGO mosaic. Visiting the Spider-Verse, they created a mosaic tribute to Miles Morales.

If you’re like me (and I know I am), then you probably love the Into the Spider-Verse movie. Miles Morales quickly became my favorite take on the Spider-Man character, and I’d started (and abandoned) more than a few attempts to pay tribute to the character in LEGO form. Still, when I wanted to challenge myself and try a mosaic style that varied from the LEGO Art format I’d been working in, I decided Miles had to be the focus. Then I teamed up again with Alyse to make this new challenge a bit easier. Built on a 96×64 base of Technic brick, this images uses layers of plate and other elements to create an image in line with the animation style from the movie.

LEGO Brick Sketches 40535 Iron Man & 40536 Miles Morales [Review]

Brick Sketches are a relatively new LEGO theme that debuted in 2020, based on a popular series of builds by LEGO designer Chris McVeigh, from back when he was just a humble fan. Brick Sketches blend 3D sculpture and 2D art to create brick-built portraits of popular characters suitable for hanging on your wall. So far, LEGO has officially released Brick Sketches for only three of its IP licenses – Star Wars, Disney, and DC Comics. But Marvel joins in the fun this April 1st with the release of the 200-piece 40535 Iron Man US $16.99 | CAN $19.99 | UK £14.99 and the 214-piece 40536 Miles Morales US $16.99 | CAN $19.99 | UK £14.99. But will these sets draw you in? Or are they kind of sketchy?
