Hey! Listen! The LEGO® Great Deku Tree is a brand new set based on the beloved Nintendo video game series, The Legend of Zelda™. As the 2-in-1 name suggests, the parts in this set can build one of two trees: the Deku tree as it appears in the original Ocarina of Time game or the more recent Breath of the Wild. There's a lot to explore including new moulds, recolours, and exclusive figures. Let's go!

LEGO® Marvel review: 76295 The Avengers Helicarrier

Posted by Kev Levell

The S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier is the enormous flying aircraft carrier from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and comics. LEGO® has made two larger scale versions of this behemoth in sets before; 76042 The SHIELD Helicarrier from 2015 and 76153 Avengers Helicarrier from 2020, but now we have the first midi-scale version.

The original Helicarrier was a massive set with a similarly massive price tag so it's nice to see set 76295 The Avengers Helicarrier aimed at the adult market with more of a 'regular birthday' price tag. But before an endorsement we need to check the specs and fly it around a bit.
