It's time to announce the name of the winner of the contest which allowed you to win some cool stuff including a pair of LEGO slippers and a set 10245 Santa's Workshop. I add in the package a Hoth Bricks minifigure and some stickers, on which I do a little self-promotion, that I plan to distribute to children in Bordeaux this weekend during Fans de Briques.

3478 valid entries were registered. As usual, I see that many participants do not know their own email address: There are many addresses that do not exist, are invalid or are full of syntax errors.

On the statistics side, to the question asked: "Why do you want to win this pair of LEGO slippers?"is the answer"To stop hurting myself while walking on my LEGOs"which largely wins in front of the choice"The slippers, blah, I especially want the box offered with"...

In short, the drawing of lots was carried out by me, I would remind you that there was no wrong answer in the questionnaire, and you will find below the name of the winner who was contacted by email for organize the delivery of the above package as soon as possible:

Today we are talking about Breeks, the mook (contraction of Shops / Book) whose number 1 has been available for a few weeks in all good bookstores in France.

After a number 0 which gave us a foretaste of what this medium would be, here is the first "real" number of this magazine Geek which over its 128 pages gives pride of place to the Star Wars universe, news oblige. The finish is exemplary: Beautiful cardboard cover, original interior trim, airy and readable content, quality illustrations ...

However, I have always been very skeptical of marketing discourse which claims a little too proudly that such and such content "Geek" is destined "to the whole family". For once it's true: I was surprised to see that my 12-year-old son, a lover of video games, manga, superhero movies and TV series, found an interest in flipping through this big paved.

First attracted by the illustrations of the various articles, he quickly got caught up in the game and read a few sections, before coming to discuss with me what he was able to learn over the pages. From this point of view, the contract is fulfilled and Breeks keeps all of his promises.

Same behavior from my wife, who after looking suspiciously at the cover of issue 1, finally agreed to take a look. A few articles finally found favor with his eyes and were the starting point for some interesting discussions.

For anyone wondering: Yes, there's a lot of talk about LEGO in this first issue. I obviously have no problem with that, quite the contrary. LEGO products are one of the current markers of this catch-all cultural set that we put in the basket "GeekYou only have to look at the current offer of the manufacturer of Billund and take a look at what sites the internet has of sites that are surfing the current trends to realize this.

So, should you spend € 15.90 to afford this mook with a high-end finish and rich and varied content? The answer is in the question. It is also one of the few media currently available in France, and perhaps even the only one, which highlights our favorite products. English-speaking countries already have their magazines dedicated to LEGO products (Blocks, Bricks, Brickjournal) and I chose to support Breeks because I think it's also our only chance to have French-speaking support that includes editorial content related to the passion for LEGO.

Note for all those who will be present in Bordeaux next weekend: Muttpop, which publishes Breeks in partnership with Bragelonne editions, will be present at the event Brick Fans 2015. Do not hesitate to take the opportunity to leaf through this number 1 on the publisher's stand.

If you have trouble finding Breeks in bookstores, you can buy No. 1 online directly. on the Muttpop website.

You probably remember the Lightning Lad minifigure announced a few months ago in a new cube exclusive to the Target brand.

This new box, bearing the LEGO reference 5004077, is finally available in the USA for the modest sum of $ 9.99. Even better, it is available to Target brand customers who purchase products from the LEGO City, Ninjago and Super Heroes ranges for $ 50.

If I tell you about the price and the conditions of obtaining this box while it will never be available in France, it is especially for you to keep them well in mind when you will seek to acquire it in the days and the coming weeks on eBay ou on Bricklink.

In the box, three other minifigs accompany Lightning Lad: A LEGO City diver, Kai (Ninjago) and Sir Fangar (Chima).

This new cube therefore joins the previous reference (5004076) released in December 2014 by Target, which also contained four minifigs from the Legends of Chima, City, Ninjago and DC Comics (Superboy) ranges.

While waiting to know more about the minifig, probably exclusive, which will accompany the DVD box of the next animated film LEGO DC Comics, here is the visual of the cover of the Blu-ray version of this Justice League: Cosmic Clash presented at the last New York Comic Con.

This new animated feature film will feature the usual DC Comics superheroes who will be battling Brainiac this time around.

It will join the two previous sections already released: Justice League vs. Bizarro League (delivered with an exclusive Batzarro minifig), available at a reasonable price at amazon FR et Justice League: Attack of the Legion of Doom (delivered with an exclusive Trickster minifig) always available from amazon UK.

To pass the time, here are some more DC Comics minifigs planned for 2016 with above left a Batman with armor and phosphorescent head which should be present (with an additional piece of armor) in set 76044 known for now as the appellation Clash of Heroes (Official visual available here), a LexCorp agent in the center and on the right (again) a version of the Batman from the film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice played by Ben Affleck (Minifig already seen online a few days ago).

For information, all these photos relayed on Eurobricks mostly come from facebook groups based in Mexico where all these new minifigs circulate.

Considering the proliferation of these buy / sell groups and the significant quantities of minifigs that pass from hand to hand before ending up sold at full price on eBay, it looks like LEGO has definitely given up on the idea of ​​stopping the leaked minifigs per handful of twelve from its Monterey plant ...
