Winston is slightly smaller compared to other bigfigs – here’s how he stacks up against the Hulk and Maui. Winston’s back has studs, which allows you to affix the jump-pack to it. In his arms is his signature weapon, a Tesla Cannon, which has stickers applied on it for detail. On his back is a jump-pack, which gives him the ability to clear distances, making him a very mobile hero in the game. Here’s Winston from the side – I really like the segments on his arm. His face in particular is great and I really like the texture of his hair, and the printing on his face, such as his glasses on his face. The Winston bigfig is fantastically designed, with a lot of care and attention placed on the moulding on his head, limbs and body. He’s been a perennial favourite in Overwatch games, and he was the subject of another fantastic animated short titled Recall which you can watch on Youtube. Winston is a genetically-engineered gorilla, raised on the moon and has a bit of an obsession with bananas and peanut butter. It’ll become apparent when we dive into the minifigures in more detail.įirst up we have Winston, who rightly makes an appearance as a bigfig. In a theme that primarily uses minifigures to sell sets, this set already seems like a winner, but everything isn’t as great as it seems. This set has arguably the strongest lineup of minifigures in the theme, with heavy fan favourites Pharah and Mercy (colloquially known as PhaMercy), as well as Winston, the hyper-intelligent gorilla who has been an Overwatch mainstay since day one. Reaper has a slightly different look (compared to the one in Dorado Showdown), which technically makes him “exclusive” to the set, but I’m not considering him an exclusive character. Watchpoint: Gibraltar includes 4 minifigures, 3 of which are exclusive to this set. Naturally, there’s a lot of expectation placed on the largest set of the theme, which is why I went into this set with much heavier expectations. The set’s cornerstone is the Overwatch rocket, placed amidst the launch complex, and launch tower. Continuing my series of LEGO Overwatch reviews is the largest set from the theme – 75975 Watchpoint: Gibraltar, named after the Escort map of the same name.
