LEGO City 60409 Mobile Construction Crane review!

July 6, 2024 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

LEGO City Mobile Construction Crane Review 60409Reading Time: < 1 minute

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?

LEGO Delivery Truck Detailed Review (City set 60440)

June 8, 2024 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

LEGO Delivery Truck 60440 ReviewReading Time: < 1 minute

This is a detailed review of the LEGO Delivery Truck set 60440. The is the spiritual successor to set 3221: LEGO City Truck from 2010.

And what a difference those 14 years make! The difference in the techniques and quality of the set are nothing but impressive! There’s hints of the Speed Champions techniques in the build.

But is this set worth that much more? Lets have a look at the new LEGO Delivery Truck 60440! Hint: This set is more than twice the size of the old one. I just question if this is a City set or a Collectors set. What do you think?

LEGO City Express Passenger Train Review (60337)

July 8, 2022 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 3 minutes

This is a review of the new 2022 LEGO City Express Passenger Train 60337 not to be confused with the previous LEGO City Passenger Train 60197 (note the “Express” part). Why is it an express train? Well, according to the stickers on the set, it can travel at 303 km/h! But, does that also make it worth 25% more than the previous model?
