This Lego Marvel playset might be on the simple side, but it’s packed full of fun details.
As the 7+ age rating on the box of the Lego Marvel Spider-Man at the Sanctum Workshop should tell you, this isn’t a complicated build. It’s purposefully simple to put together so that little builders can do it without much help. There are a lot of small, fiddly pieces however – like decorative jars and individual tools – that make this a set unsuitable for the youngest of Lego builders.
It’s a pleasant build, with no frustrating sections. Split over three bags, you’ll start by putting together a big green and black bug monster. It’s a bizarre addition to the set if you ask us, but it makes for a nice play piece – particularly since its front pincers are large enough to grab a minifigure.
Moving onto bags two and three, it’s here that you’ll construct the Sanctum Workshop itself. It’s reasonably sized – it spans 9 inches – so there’s plenty of space to set up fun scenes with the included minifigures. We just wish there was a little more detail. The doorway is surrounded by white blocks decorated with stickers and provides a focal point to the set, yet the brickwork atop feels unfinished to us – two gray hinges hold the set together either side, but they look somewhat out of place. Even just a strip of gray bricks across the top would have tidied this up. Then again, when it comes to playsets, Lego ultimately has different priorities than it would if this was a display set.
Much of the detail of Lego Marvel Spider-Man at the Sanctum Workshop is in the sides of the set. You’ll use gray plates that jut out at an angle to add in a desk, shelving, and workshop area. We had great fun putting these together, and when finished it really does feel like a true living space. It’s just a shame it’s not all brought together with more congruence – but for a $40 playset, we can’t really expect any more than what we’ve got. It’s a good value set, all told.
