This Tiny Lego ‘Goonies’ Set Makes the Massive One Even Higher

As superb as Lego’s upcoming set based on The Goonies is, it’s really higher than you suppose. Right here’s why. Final week, Lego revealed a large new set based on the hit 1985 film. On the one aspect, it’s One-Eyed Willy’s ship from the tip of the movie. On the opposite aspect, a number of rooms capture stages of the adventure the characters go on all through the story. It’s mainly every part you like about The Goonies in a single stunning construct. However, there are a number of scenes lacking, and it seems Lego is bringing one additional room to life.

In case you purchase The Goonies set beginning subsequent month, it can include a second set of the Walsh attic. What the heck is that? Effectively, the attic is the place the entire journey begins. The place the place Mikey brings his buddies to take a look at his dad’s assortment of artifacts, they usually uncover the primary clues of the journey. It’s a small set, solely 179 items, nevertheless it’s so nerdy and particular that we’re nearly extra enthusiastic about it than the complete factor.

In case you’re a fan of The Goonies, you in all probability have all the identical emotions I do. Let’s begin with the portray. You could personal, in Lego, the portray that Mouth sticks his tongue by means of is nearly value the price of each units. Not less than for my part. That must be one of many funniest and finest little Lego creations in without end.

And that’s solely a part of it. There’s the pirate hat they move round. There’s the “laser beams” that Chunk performs with. After all, there’s additionally the framed map that begins this complete factor. And we love the addition of the poster for the Lighthouse Diner. Which we don’t suppose is within the film, particularly because it promotes “Veal Scallopini,” a humorous nod to the movie. (And is oddly spelled mistaken?)

Additionally, by no means in my wildest desires did I believe I wanted mini-figs of Mr. and Mrs. Walsh, however now it’s all I need on this planet. However no Rosalita? Come on.
