LEGO City Summer 2025 sets revealed! My thoughts on some great sets, and one questionable one…

May 3, 2025 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

We have the new LEGO City sets coming out in a few months, and I think LEGO have smashed it out of the park! We’re getting a plane, modular car, a new train, exploration vehicle, bulldozer, tow truck and a train station!

LEGO Exo-force Stealth Hunter (7700) 2006 vs 2024 LEGO city 60421 version #lego #legocity

July 16, 2024 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: < 1 minute

I was digging through some old LEGO and found my LEGO Exo-Force Stealth Hunter, set 7700 and thought it would be great to do a quick comparison to the newer ‘Ninjago’ sized one from the LEGO City 60421 Robot World Roller Coaster.

You can see the size difference and level of articulation is much greater in the older one’s legs, being more akin to Bionicle that Ninjago.

LEGO train + Circuit Cubes = small but mighty! #LEGO #legotrain #legocity #modeltrains

July 7, 2024 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: < 1 minute

I bought @CircuitCubes a while ago and have been wanting to try powering a LEGO train with it, so I picked the small 7810 train. The main challenge is that it needs some extra weight to get grip.

First Impressions: LEGO Ideas Jaws 21350. A terrifyingly well designed set!

July 5, 2024 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

LEGO have dropped the LEGO Ideas Jaws 21350 and what a cracking – or sinking ship! This is what LEGO Ideas is all about. When LEGO gets it right they really get it right! The boat is the star of the show, but that shark really captures the movie prop feel of the original.

“You’re gonna need a bigger boat”
Build the ultimate fan-inspired display set that recreates the thrilling scene in the movie Jaws where Quint, Chief Brody and Hooper faced down the shark from the deck of the Orca.

LEGO City Mobile Construction Crane review! It’s massive but should set 60409 be even bigger?

June 29, 2024 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

This is my unbiased review of the LEGO City Mobile Construction Crane set 60409. At $180AUD and 1116 pieces, it’s not cheap. But does it deliver value and is this a renaissance of the LEGO Construction line? And one important question… Should it have been bigger?

I may have too many LEGO helicopters… but my Lego City tidy is going well!

June 26, 2024 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: < 1 minute

I’m tidying my LEGO City as you know if you’ve watched my last city update. It’s got a way to go but I seem to have too many helicopters! There are fire ones, ambulances and a police one. Plus a sci-fi space one.

LEGO City update confession: it’s more Apocalypseburg than Studsburg at the moment.

June 23, 2024 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

You haven’t seen my city in a long time and with good reason. In this video, I’m going to come clean on the issues I have and the reason there haven’t been any updates. There are LEGO sets dumped everywhere and that obviously impacts how much i can update my custom LEGO city. A cleanup program has begun though! Don’t worry!
