LEGO 75551 Minions Brick-Built Minions and Their Lair Building Toy, Gift Idea for Boys and Girls Display Models with Stuart, Kevin & Bob Figures

Product Information

The interior plays on the nerdiness by representing a large control room with lots of computer screens and that’s why it looks particularly dreary without stickers. Some purists like nothing beyond the classic Minifigure design, which I understand, but unique elements are 100% needed to recreate the Minions in LEGO form. com is an Introducer Appointed Representative of Pay4Later Limited, trading as Deko, which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 728646). This is however not the case and indeed they produced some new custom parts which indeed may have the advantage of working in reverse just as well should one day they decide to produce them in other colors without prints. Unfortunately, these are all stickers, however, they do tie nicely to past Minions and Despicable Me movies, I especially like the Fart Blaster one.

The arms have appeared in other sets such as the Unikitty, NEXO KNIGHTS and Angry Birds themes, but the ones each are available in new colours or with unique print detail. More sitting on your desk or shelf, and younger LEGO fans can play out their own wacky Minions adventures. One of the things that became a bit annoying and literally also the reason why I built each character on a different evening is the tediousness of the actual build.The basics are al lthere, though, and aside from the opacity of some prints leaving a bit to be desired they are executed well enough. Of course I’m not revealing anything new when telling you that at one point Mega Construx had a license when the Minions movie was released some years ago. The larger Minions have some good play features and while you can have all three assembled at once, you can easily switch them out. The packaging was brown paper, and as such, the box was totally crushed from moving through the postal service.

LEGO 75551 Brick-built Minions and their Lair was a 876 piece Minions set with 3 minifigs released in 2020. It felt like everything already had been said and done and there was little room for anything to add to that. Each LEGO Minions set encourages creative fun as children role-play scenes from the Minions: The Rise of Gru movie.

However, during peak periods like Black Friday and Christmas, dispatching might extend up to 5 business days. New molds for parts don’t come cheap, but I’m guessing brick-built Minions at this scale would have looked pretty poor.

It’s sequel, The Rise of Gru was set to hit cinemas this June, but due to the current situation, it has been moved to 2021. This can easily be deduced from just looking at photos and can also be verified when downloading the digital instructions.When you’re done building the original two main models you’re left with a bunch of extra parts that are meant for a conversion of Kevin into Bob. Ten years ago, a gang of French-speaking yellow things, known as Minions, entered popular culture with Illumination’s Despicable Me movie. Although elements of the Minion figures are similar to standard Minifigures such as the hands, every component of them is unique to the Minions. Internals were fine, but presenting the item as a gift was marred as the item looked completely worse for wear, which could have been avoided.

The set features three Minions and each is completely unique in terms of the outfits they are wearing and the elements used to create them. I kind of hacked it, trying to keep large sections intact and only exchanging bits as needed and removing what would no longer be needed, but it was still time-consuming and frustrating. As you can see, the shape of the cross section is not actually round but rather an elongated rounded corner block.
