Relive 1989 with the LEGO Nintendo Game Boy (Set 72046)! In this hands‑on build and review, we unbox the 421‑piece set, test the button feel and D‑pad, swap the Mario and Zelda lenticular screens, and go over all the printed details. I’ll share the coolest build techniques, storage spots for the alternate screens, pros and cons, and whether the price lands right for you.
