The LEGO Group is constantly innovating and creating some really cool sets, but they always seem to fall into on of their many LEGO Themes, whether that be Star Wars, NINJAGO, LEGO City, or a host of other great LEGO franchises. It's not a bad thing, as some of the sets have some amazing creative genius built into them! When LEGO launched the LEGO Ideas line, however, I knew that we would be getting sets that didn't fit the traditional LEGO Themes mold; boy was a right, and this latest set - The Ship in a Bottle - is the PERFECT example of this.

Many people missed out on this great experience, but will get a second shot when it arrives this march.

With another Nintendo Mini Direct in the books, the gloves are off and writers around the world are going to start dissecting what Nintendo is offering fans. The initial impression for some wasn't great: too many Wii U games and older games on other systems being ported to Switch.
