LEGO’s focus on deep building experiences for adults really took off with the debut of the Modular line in 2007 and Architecture one year later. With LEGO Icons 10362 French Café, the first set in a new Restaurants of the World subtheme, LEGO seems to be splitting the difference between intricate diorama detail and shelf-ready display piece. For whom does this slice of the Belle Epoche toll? Does it toll for thee? Available now for pre-order, and shipping on March 1st, LEGO Icons  10362 French Café retails for $79.99 | CAN $99.99 | UK £69.99 on the LEGO website.

The LEGO Marvel X-Men X-Jet (76281) was one of the more overpriced sets in 2024 but there’s a discount on Amazon that makes the price easier to swallow. The set has already been discounted by 12% but there’s also a $7.14 coupon that you can apply which essentially drops the price down to $67.99. This is roughly 20% off the retail price of $84.99. I have a feeling that this set won’t be getting any significant discounts (30%+) unless you happen to find it in stores when they’re marked down.

Every LEGO Marvel release has to have a small vehicle set and in 2025 there are actually two of them. The first one we’re checking out is the Spider-Man vs. Venom Muscle Car (76309). The set has 254 pieces and retails for $29.99. Minifigures There are three minifigures in the set, Spider-Man, Venom, and Spider-Woman. Spider-Man is the usual minifigure that we’ve seen before in previous Marvel sets with the printing on the arms. His accessories include some white Power Blast pieces for his webs. There’s also the new large rubber web piece that is able to close up to capture villains. Venom is also a reused minifigure.

The only other one was the San Diego Comic Con 2013 exclusive. This version of...
