![]() The Cyclops figurine is passable, it suffers like some Captain America figurines from the usual defect linked to light-colored faces pad-printed on a dark head, it's too pale. The figurine is therefore not completely connected from head to toe, which is frankly a shame. It does not escape the usual problems of printing a light color, yellow here, on a dark support, the blue of the legs. The supply of figurines is interesting without being overwhelming in substance and it is especially disappointing in terms of form: the Wolverine minifig seems at first glance very similar to that seen in the boxes of the 2nd series of collectible characters from the universe Marvel Studios (LEGO Marvel Studios reference 71039 Collectible Minifigures Series 2), but the version delivered in this box is economical with less pad printing on the arms and the side of the legs. LEGO, on the other hand, did not forget to add a large sheet of graphically successful stickers but still just as annoying, especially at this price. ![]() The ship does not even have landing gear, it rests on its cabin and yet it would only have needed a few additional parts to make it gain a little height on our shelves. The Sentinel marketed in 2014, with some basic functionalities such as the opening of the front glass roof and a portion of the cabin which allow access to the various piloting and command stations with basic layout or even the presence of Spring-Shooters as well as Stud Shooters placed under the ship to ensure minimal playability of the product and that's it. The construction, however, remains a modest children's toy like the previous version of the set. We cannot conclude either that this X-Jet is ultra-detailed even if the 30 cm long vessel is not unworthy given the scale chosen. A pad printing effort could have made it possible to argue in favor of LEGO but this is not the case. We can risk trying to find an explanation despite the reduced inventory of the product and the presence of four characters, but it is difficult to justify the public price by the presence of some very large elements for the fuselage of the X-Jet knowing that the many patterns present inside the ship are only stickers. ![]() Whatever the possible qualities of this product inspired by the new season of the animated series X-Men '97 which will soon be available on the Disney+ platform, the price announced has monopolized the attention of fans who are still wondering how LEGO and Disney have come to believe that this is the right price for this box. Today we take a very quick tour of the content of the LEGO Marvel set 76281 X-Men X-Jet, a box of 359 pieces which will be available from Januat the surprising retail price of €84.99. The book is already up for pre-order at Amazon with availability announced for September 5, 2024: No bricks or minifigs with this book, it's a bit of a shame because there was plenty to delight us with an exclusive figurine or a special brick. On the menu, 256 pages, of which you will find some examples below, dotted with 75 illustrated friezes which retrace the history of different ranges and products or which detail the manufacturing processes used by LEGO.Įverything is abundantly sprinkled with numerous anecdotes and other facts, it's promising but it will be in English while waiting to know if a publisher will one day offer us a French version. ![]() If you still have room on your shelves to store one more LEGO book, know that the very prolific publisher Dorling Kindersley (DK for short) is offering this year a book soberly entitled " LEGO Timelines" which takes advantage of the already over-exploited trend on the internet of timelines to make a beautiful book to leaf through in your spare time. ![]()
