LEGO Batman The Movie DC Super Heroes Unite

I had you already spoken here of this "film" which will be released at the end of March 2013 and whose trailer suggests that it will be composed of a montage of cutscenes from the game LEGO Batman 2. Nothing very new therefore for those who have completed the video game .

But if you are a fan of the LEGO Super Heroes range, which you must be if you are reading these lines, you are still going to treat yourself to this Blu-ray / DVD since it will come with an exclusive Clark Kent minifigure, which if we believe the visuals above, promises to be exceptional ...

Please note, the press release announces a release for the end of May 2013, but it is especially mentioned that the minifigure will only be present in the first copies sold ...

Blu-ray / DVD pack is available pre-order at amazon.com for just over $ 17.

50011 LEGO Lord of the Rings The Battle of Helm's Deep

After the board game 3920 The Hobbit released in 2012, here is another of those board / strategy games that LEGO is fond of with a version in the universe of Lord of the Rings and more specifically of the Battle of Helm's Deep.

We will quickly forget the rules to see that we will be entitled to an impressive quantity of microfigs with among others Aragorn, Gimli, Eowyn, Legolas, soldiers of Rohan, Uruk-hai with a shovel (16 in all), and a nice total inventory of 338 pieces, from what we see on the box.

This new game will be marketed from August 2013. No price has been communicated yet.

LEGO Technic Challenge

You probably remember this contest organized by LEGO I was telling you about a few months ago and whose objective is to market the model designed by a MOCeur on the basis of the chassis of the set 9398 4x4 Crawler.

The winning MOC is now designated after the voting sequence aimed at deciding the 10 finalists (see on the official LEGO Technic blog): This is the above model designed by rm88 which won almost 50% of the vote, with the kind support of Eurobricks.

I don't know anything about LEGO Technic, but at first glance, this MOC is very (a little too?) Visually close to the model in set 9398.

In short, nothing very exciting, we will wait to see what LEGO will do with this MOC by passing it through the mill to release a marketable version by next summer.

LEGO Lord of the Rings - 79008 Pirate Ship Ambush

It is once again Motayan who provides us with some original visuals via his flickr gallery.

The gentleman seems to have on hand a slew of visuals that he distils according to his mood and it's the turn of the set 79008 Pirate Ship Ambush to reveal yourself with these two (small) images.

We still learn that the boat in the set will display the following dimensions: 597 x 355 mm and we discover the minifigs included: Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, King of the Dead, 2 Soldiers of the Dead, Pirate of Umbar (played on screen by Peter Jackson) and 2 Mordor Orcs.
