Here is an example of what gives the command that I have just placed on amazon.de for sets from The Hobbit range.

The prices charged are already much lower than those offered by LEGO on the LEGO Shop and we must also deduct the 20% discount offered by amazon.de until December 5 (i.e. tomorrow ...)

This discount is applied immediately before payment and the five sets available therefore cost me 215.61 € including postage instead of 285.45 € on the LEGO Shop.

You have a few hours left to take advantage of this 20% discount valid on the entire LEGO range.

Now that we've discovered the official visuals for the Series 9 minifigs and set our sights on some of them, the issue of supply remains to be resolved.

The distribution of these series of minifigs is rather chaotic in France. Will we have to be content, as with the previous series, of a few bags at the checkout at the supermarket or in some toy stores?

I got into the habit of ordering boxes of 60 minifigs that several of us shared depending on the content (so far three sets per box).

But the situation seems to be changing with this series 9: According to WhiteFang's review on Eurobricks, the box of 60 minifigs of the series 9 would indeed contain only two complete sets of 16 minifigs, which does not help our affairs.

Here is an indication of what was in the WhiteFang box provided by LEGO:

Obviously, as was the case for the previous series, the distribution may vary from one box to another, this count is not guaranteed.

Waiting, amazon.fr has already uploaded the box of 60 sachets pre-order at a price of 118 €.

Series 9 is still not listed at Peek and Poke.

LEGO is a master in the art of teasing and the new web series called The Yoda Chronicles is no exception to the rule.

It's certain the official LEGO Star Wars blog that the Jedi master himself distils these images which announce the upcoming launch of this new animated series, a new episode of which should be unveiled every Saturday.

No information yet on the format or duration of these episodes. Obviously, as soon as we know more, we keep up to date ...

And it is via the Whitefang review on Eurobricks that the suspense is over and that we finally discover the 16 minifigs of series 9.

From my side, I fell in love with the Alien Trooper and the Mech Galaxy Squad. The rest is not too much in my favorite themes.

Note that the series 9 minifigs are also visible on the official LEGO website dedicated to the different series of this range.
