The info is not of much interest to us French, but it is still worth its weight in peanuts: The partnership between LEGO and the newspaper The Sun which regularly materialized by an offer to obtain some polybags in exchange of coupons to cut from the pages of the English tabloid ends and the explanations given vary according to the source.
On the LEGO side, it is argued that the partnership comes to an end naturally after two years of collaboration and that in no case the manufacturer gives in to pressure from the "No More Page 3" group.
On the side of opponents to "Page 3", the one on which a young, undressed woman appears daily, we cry victory following the petition against the partnership between a toy manufacturer and a newspaper which offers rather trashy content and which has collected more than 12.000 signatures. Life-size actions were even carried out in front of the newspaper's headquarters and as far as the LEGOland park in Windsor (UK) to demand the end of this partnership, which was a problem for many parents.
In short, polybags with The Sun are over. It remains to be seen if LEGO will repeat the operation in the future with a slightly less trashy newspaper.

Forward for a new trailer for the most anticipated film of the start of the year, with Tony Stark asking existential questions, the philosopher Mandarin, luxury cars, armor galore, luxury cars falling in. the ocean, armor, Guy Pearce at the top of his game, the Hulkbuster armor, and more armor in shambles ...
Did I tell you there really will be a lot of armor?
It is not yet this week that we will know more about what happens in these famous chronicles of Yoda ...
The video uploaded this Friday on the official LEGO website is a simple advertisement, very well done incidentally, for the set 75012 BARC Speeder with Sidecar.
Nuju Metru has therefore put its MOC of Minas Tirith on Cuusoo. This is a good move that deserves the support of all fans of the Lord of the Rings line, even those who would prefer a 10.000-piece UCS from Minas Tirith. Make yourself a reason, it won't happen. Never.
This playset would therefore be an acceptable compromise, with the fortress exposed and playable, full of minifigs, catalpults ... and Nuju Metru demonstrates that it is feasible while remaining reasonable on the number of pieces and therefore the selling price of the thing.
You and I know that this Cuusoo project will never reach 10.000 supporters. For many different reasons besides. Salvation from this Cuusoo project certainly lies more in a buzz on the sites of fans of Tolkien, or the Lord of the Rings saga than among the AFOLs themselves.
And even if all the sites or blogs in the LEGO universe went there with their articles encouraging support for this project, that would probably not be enough: There would always be someone to criticize the scale of the project, the choice of minifigs, etc, etc ...
AFOLs are always more forgiving with official LEGO products, even when they are clearly bad, than with the MOCs of their fellows ...
So, you do as you want, I voted.
Always by Fig Nation (3D renderings by brickfigs), here is Iron Patriot and Iron Man in Extremis version, all without these helmets about which we do not all agree. In fact, the ideal compromise would be to have the heads printed as here with the rendering of the helmet and the additional helmet included in the box. In my dreams I know ...
LEGO had however opted for the head printed on the exclusive Iron Man minifigure distributed during the New York Toy Fair 2012. This will undoubtedly be the only official minifigure not to be equipped with this articulated helmet ...
Regarding the Extremis version (Mark XLVII), the armor of the film was presented during San Diego Comic Con 2012 and the (virtual) custom above is rather faithful even if some will have difficulty considering an Iron Man whose armor is not predominantly red.
