Few places are more iconic in the Marvel Universe than Charles Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters for X-Men fans. Sure, the X-Men have had other bases ranging from abandoned towns in the Australian Outback toand the X-Men movies. Since The Lego Group started rolling out Lego sets based on other iconic headquarters like Avengers Tower and Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Sanctorum, X-Men fans have held out hope that the X-Men’s training grounds would get the same treatment.
The building’s modular interior is packed with items and Easter eggs, but including them all means the rooms can be difficult to access and a bit cramped. The Danger Room, though I love it, is particularly challenging because of its depth, and the individual rooms can fit roughly two minifigures at a time. It’s still fun to poke around in there but it’s something to keep in mind for those fond of creating indoor scenes with their sets.The X-Mansion includes 10 minifigures.
The choice of minifigures is another potential sticking point. Longtime Lego collectors may roll their eyes at getting another Wolverine and Magneto but it’d be hard to justify making an X-Mansion set without them. All of the other minifigures, with one exception, are mainstays from theand are accurately portrayed, no argument there. The inclusion of Iceman is puzzling as he hasn’t been a major presence in the X-Men shows.
Sure, certain aspects could have, arguably, been tweaked for the better — I’m as disappointed at the inclusion of Iceman over Jubilee or Nightcrawler as much as anyone — but I’m hoping this opens the floodgates for more X-Men minifigures to enroll in Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngers in the future.
