Ever since I was a little boy, I don’t think there was a time that Lego’s have not been part of my life. This is no different now as I was given an opportunity to review the Avengers Hydra Showdown Lego Set from Lego. I remember as a kid, I would build everything I could imagine , from custom spaceships and vehicles, to a custom Lego House for my pet hamster. I am not sure how much he may have appreciated it, but he stayed in there most of the time, hard to gauge that when you are only 7 or 8 years old.
So we know I love Lego’s, but I love Superheroes just as much, and when you can combine the two like Lego did, well, you get someone like me, a very happy kid at heart. So let’s take a look at some of the pictures below where it was being assembled.
I love that it has the Hawkeye Mini Figure included! Hawkeye is one of my favorite Superheroes of all time. So it was such a thrill to see him included in this one. Fortunately for you, Lego covers a wide range of subjects, and you can check out a previous post I did here about them. If you want something a little more challenging, you might check out the Batman Tumbler below or the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier below.
I will continue to look to Lego for inspiration and the desire to make these not only fun to do, but collectible as well. I actually bought the Tumbler above, and have not started it yet, hope to do it soon, and I might do videos on it as I progress. So what do you like about Lego? What is your favorite theme to build? Do you make it a family event, or are you like me and like to build them on your own too? ~Tom

I love these new Legosets and the Lego movies. The movies have a lot of humour in them.

I bought this set for myself a few days ago. I really enjoyed building it. Recently something inside me has sparked up once again and rekindled my love for Lego.
I find it very relaxing to put sets together. Looking forward to buying the Kwik – E – Mart next week !! Woot 😀
Cheers fellow AFOL
