Nice promo on amazon.it with set 10225 R2-D2 currently offered at 159.99 €! For information, its current price on the LEGO Shop is 194.99 € ...

I have just done a simulation and the product is found at 158.14 € in the basket to which must be added 7.00 € for shipping to France, for a total of 165.14 €.

To take advantage of this attractive price, don't hang around too much, things are moving very, very quickly at the moment: LEGO Star Wars 10225 R2-D2. 

For everything else there is pricevortex.com.

No less than 17 emails received from blog visitors (in English and French) following the publication on Eurobricks of the video presenting the new products 2013 from the LEGO Star Wars range. So I watch said video, and apart from Ackbar, the rest is obviously a takeover of existing products. Even the A-Wing is a Jarek MOC dating from 2008 (successful incidentally).

Doubt having assailed me while I was preparing a post on it, I looked for this very good Admiral Ackbar to find that it is therefore the custom version of tstoeger dating from 2005 (see his Brickshelf gallery) ...

Missed this time, these images are therefore not visuals of the 2013 range. Thank you all the same to all those who took the trouble to write to me to inform me of the existence of this video.

We continue with the novelties in the LEGO Alarm clocks range with 4 models:

LEGO Ninjago Fang Suei - $ 24.99 at Toys R Us (USA)
LEGO Star Wars Savage Opress - $ 24.99 at Toys R Us (USA)
LEGO Monster Fighters Mummyseen on eBay)
LEGO Monster Fighters Vampire (seen on eBay)

Note that the two models of the Monster Fighters range are in "Glow in the Dark"(Luminescent).

And it's free. You can therefore freely download the instructions to assemble a Batman in the format "Miniland-Scale" very successful on the site of Eric Druon alias BaronSat. The list of parts necessary for the reproduction of this MOC is also provided in the pdf file.

Just one thing, which moreover concerns almost all the instruction files made available by the different MOCeurs (free of charge or against a little money), the presence of the Bricklink references of the necessary parts would be a big plus, I have already spent too much time creating Wanted List pulling my hair out on some references ... Those who know the LEGO catalog by heart probably don't care a little, but anyone who wants to put the pieces together quickly without spending hours looking for colors or references would appreciate without a doubt...

You can download the instruction file at this address on the BaronSat website.

It's Sevy-Naej who informs us in the comments (thank you to him): the work of the official LEGO store in Lille has just started.

The store will therefore be well located in the Euralille shopping center on the site of the former Célio Club store (level 0, in blue on the map above).

The people of Lille who frequent the blog will be able to tell us quickly if this site is nice and easily accessible ...

Edit: Achène took today these photos of the work in progress, thanks to him.
