We are huge Lego fans! I know a Lego set is the perfect gift to give our son, as well as several other males in the family. Normally, he tells me what new sets he wants most for Christmas or his birthday. That is always helpful. Not just for me, but for other family members who wish to give a desired gift. Honestly, it would be impossible for me to remember which sets our son already owns, unless they are displayed on his shelves. After all, I am not the only person who gives him Legos, plus he buys for himself. But, regardless of how many he has, he knows exactly which ones he owns and which sets he would like to have.
We like to give him the Lego sets with significance to all of us. Since we saw the movie "Spider-Man Far From Home" together, this particular set has special meaning with related memories.
The Spider-Man Far From Home Lego set was a gift we gave him for Christmas 2019. You can see for yourself that he waited over a year to actually built this particular set. I have said many times in the past that, to our son, Legos are like my craft kits. We want them immediately so they will be on hand when we are ready to create! It is also wise to purchase Lego sets before they are retired and you have to pay a premium to second-hand dealers to get one.
This set is currently available and not yet retired.
Spider-Man Far From Home Lego Set #76130
As I previously noted, this Spider-man set has several really neat features. Some, like the colored pieces for lights or the engine exhaust plume, are always attractive features. My favorite feature of interest in this set is that Spider-man drops from the belly of the plane and hangs by a "thread".
I also love the mini-figures that are included. In addition to Spider-man, Happy Hogan, Nick Fury, and Mysterio are all part of this set. As always, the mini-figures can be seated in the planes cockpit or "attached" wherever desired.

Legos will never lose their popularity, no matter the age. It fascinates me to see how the Lego company has continually kept up with the times and created sets that represent current favorite movies and events. Fun review, Sylvestermouse.
ReplyDeleteIt really is amazing how Legos have remained so popular through the years. They keep reinventing themselves to keep current with movies etc. What a great company! Great review.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you too Pat and Mary Beth, I'm glad there is no "UPPER" age limit on these sets. I know my son along with my grandson spend many hours putting these sets together. What a great way to make memories and have quality time with your kids. Even the girls are into Lego sets that are just a little more geared to their feminine tastes. I love Lego!
ReplyDeleteMy 56-year-old husband still loves playing with his large collection of O-scale trains (many of them vintage/antique Lionel that his late uncle played with when he was a boy), and enjoys restoring old/vintage and, sometimes, damaged or broken model automobiles that he finds on eBay to their original glory (and often better than they were when new). Hobbies or any other types of activity that engages us and gives us enjoyment are important for kids, and maybe even more important as we age! Although I didn't grow up with LEGOs, I can see how entertaining, addictive, and collectible these sets would be "for kids of any age," lol. And, like you, I love how these sets have evolved to include more and more characters, accessories, and clever details. What a wonderful gift, made extra special by your thoughtfulness in choosing a set that evokes special memories of an enjoyable experience you shared together as a family.
ReplyDeleteThat's a terrific gift. Lego can be so expensive, but this one isn't too bad - I have a couple of grands who love Lego, I'll be keeping this one mind. Every Christmas there's a lego gift purchase :)
ReplyDeleteSpider-Man, Spider-Man! Does what ever a spider can...
