It's Easter this weekend, so why not kick back and let some Nintendo-flavoured Easter Eggs entertain you? These beauties may not be made of chocolate, but they're still super-sweet (see what we did there?) and they're all from LEGO City Undercover, which is out now on Wii U. As our 5 billion studs will attest, we've been playing a lot of LEGO City Undercover. But that's a good thing, because it's great, as our review will confirm.

If you want to know how to find these yourself, you can do so by reading about each one here. And if you like LEGO videos, you should check out Why you might never actually start the story in LEGO City Undercover and consider subscribing to our YouTube channel.
