Color me happily surprised.  I am not a big Banshee fan and expected this to be just another fine representation of an unexciting piece of source material.  Well, I was wrong.  The main build is very good with 10 unique printed parts, the figures are unique & recognizable, and we get the brand new splaser with splaserbeam.Video: Mega Construx Halo Banished Banshee Brawl reviewOriginal linkOriginal author: theJANG

Well hello, Mountain Police, nice to meet you, how do you do?  I see you forget the old adage, "You don't get a second chance to make a first impression."  Pity.Video: LEGO City Dirt Road Pursuit review! Mountain Police set 60172Original linkOriginal author: theJANG

This.  This is a good toy.  The articulating arm is so simple in its construction, but its playability gets a 10/10.  Plus the whole vehicle looks pretty nice just sitting idle on a table.  This is City at its very best, a proper modernization of everything that made the late 80s & early to mid 90s Town vehicles so well-loved.Video: LEGO City 2018 Forest Tractor review ? 60181Original linkOriginal author: theJANG

Here's another one of those reviews that took an entire weekend to produce, from assembly of the 3,444 piece set with the help of its 2 lb., 451-page instruction manual, through uploading of the 22-minute edited-down video that drew from about 60 individual clips.  What a shame it is, then, that my overall opinion of the flagship set is less than glowing.Video: LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Manor review ? 70922Original linkOriginal author: theJANG

It's always good to see LEGO retaining their focus on making what their primary market wants & likes.  This may even be one of their better medevac chopper toys (for play) of all time, thanks to a handful of much-needed and often missing details.Video: LEGO City Ambulance Helicopter 2018 review ? 60179Original linkOriginal author: theJANG
