LEGO Star Wars The Padawan Menace & The Empire Strikes Out

If you're watching TV this morning, don't miss the replay of The Padawan Threat from 9 am on France 45, followed by the first broadcast in France of the Empire en vrac (The Empire Strikes Out). If you are already at work, you will have live on the internet, the replay or any future reruns.

I am waiting for you here for your impressions after the broadcast.

Another visual from the LEGO Club Magazine uploaded by Bill Murphy with this page presenting the Yoda chronicles planned for 2013 on the LEGO site.
No precise indication of what this is, but I'm betting on short cartoon-style multimedia content to be viewed periodically.
Wait and see ...

Lego galaxy squad 2013

Bill Murphy alias murphquake, member of I LUG NY whom I had the opportunity to meet during the last New York Comic Con, just posted pictures pages from the LEGO Club American magazine from November-December 2012.

And at the turn of a page, we discover a cartoon preview of what the theme of the Galaxy Squad range will be. Looks like bugs are back at LEGO with this theme ...

Note the text at the bottom of the page: "... What is this newest threat?? Get ready to defend the universe from extraterrestrial pests with Galaxy squad..."

LEGO Star Wars 75001 Republic Troopers vs. Sith Troopers Battle Pack

Let's come back to our sheep after the announcement of the acquisition of Lucasfilm by the Disney group with an image that comes to us once again fromeBay where a seller is already offering for about fifteen euros this magnificent minifigure which will be marketed in early 2013 in the Battle Pack 75001 Republic Troopers vs Sith Troopers and who will delight army-builders. The item's listing on eBay also mentions that this seller has several copies ("More than 10 available") ...

Since their appearance in 2012 in the excellent set 9500 Sith Fury-Class Interceptor, these Sith Troopers stand out to me as one of the most successful minifigs of these latest waves of LEGO Star Wars sets.

I allowed myself a little clipping of the original photo in order to remove the carpet from the seller's living room.
