Hints on the Super Heroes range ......

Looking in detail competition rules organized by LEGO on the occasion of the official announcement of the range Super Heroes for 2012, we are discovering some interesting clues about the extent of this range that will be offered to us.

Indeed, the regulations detail the list of prizes which will be awarded to the winners of this competition and an estimated value of the prizes is indicated for each rank.

Grand Prize winner will receive $ 4000 in freebies including travel for 4 to Warner Bros Studios, admission to LEGOLAND Park in California and the full lineup LEGO Super Heroes: DC Universe Collection scheduled for 2012.

Where we learn a little more is by consulting the details of the prizes offered to the winners of the monthly editions of this competition: The first will be offered the full range LEGO Super Heroes: DC Universe Collection 2012 as well as an exclusive limited edition model for a total value of $ 400.

The second will also be offered the full range LEGO Super Heroes: DC Universe Collection 2012 for a total value of $ 250.

The third will be offered the set  LEGO Super Heroes: DC Universe Batcave, a LEGO Batman video game (arguably a new version based on the Nolan / Bale trilogy) and a T-shirt for an overall value of $ 50.

We therefore deduce that the set  DC Universe Batcave should have a commercial value of around $ 30 (Or € 30 with us by applying the "LEGO" exchange rate): It will therefore undoubtedly be a medium-sized set, and we can legitimately worry about its content and the interpretation that will be made of Batman's lair ....

Moreover, if the full range DC Universe is estimated at $ 250 (i.e. € 250 with us still applying the "LEGO" exchange rate), and that it should contain sets, but also goodies such as magnets, key rings and other gadgets, not expect more than half a dozen mid-size sets in 2012.
