When it comes to LEGO photography, there are only a few talented artists like Avanaut, Smokelbech ou legofenris who find favor in my eyes. But I am always open to a great discovery and Ezechielle (Do not miss his blog Lego militaria, you'll learn stuff) just sent me a nice gallery dedicated to LEGO and Star Wars, that of Blockaderunner.
In 43 photos, Blockaderunner reveals an impressive know-how. Not only does the guy know how to use a camera, he also has a sense of direction.
For each shot, it integrates minifigs, ships and machines in a hyper realistic context and it perfectly recreates the atmosphere of the scene in question.
The result is breathtakingly realistic and immediately reminded me of the Thunderbirds known to us as the Sentinels of the Air. The puppets evolved like here in an environment with a very realistic aspect.
Not knowing which photos to choose, I selected two according to my own tastes. Go quickly see the rest on Blockaderunner's flickr gallery.
Here is the minifig of the day (on the right in the photo) from the Star Wars Advent Calendar. She is accompanied here by Dutch Vander (Rebel Pilot Y-wing, 7658 Y-wing), on the left in the photo.
This anonymous minifigure is already referenced on Brickset, probably with a little too much eagerness moreover, like dack ralter, character already seen in the set 4500 Rebel Snowspeeder released in 2004, but whose helmet does not display here the blue symbols seen on that of the character of the film.
FYI Dack Ralter was Luke's gunner aboard the Snowspeeder during the Battle of Hoth.
In the absence of screen printing on the helmet, all possibilities are open: The minifig has the same torso and the same face as Zev Senesca in sets 8083 Rebel Trooper Pack et 8089 Hoth Wampa Cave, and also from the same torso as Luke Skywalker in the set 8129 AT-AT Walker.
It's up to you to choose who she will embody in your future MOCs or your next dioramas ...

It's here that it happens : LEGO: -15% from 50 euros of purchases...
... but only in the USA where Toys R Us announces that it has in stock this 6863 Batwing Battle over Gotham City set, as well as UltraBuild 4528 Green Lantern and 4526 Batman sets.
These 3 references are mentioned as In stock for shipping et Sold in stores. this availability probably explains partially the arrival of the minifigs of the 2012 range on eBay. Some employees did not have to resist opening a few boxes ...
I cannot therefore advise you too much to follow these references on Amazon.fr where the prices and deadlines should not delay to (re) appear on the sheets of each set. I put the links below and the prices that were initially announced at the end of October.
