LEGO Star Wars Yoda's Galaxy Atlas

Amazon has updated the description of the book LEGO Star Wars Yoda's Galaxy Atlas whose publication is announced for April 13, 2021 and we thus discover in close-up the exclusive minifigure of Yoda which will accompany the book of 88 pages.

The design of this Yoda minifigure is not a surprise, the cover illustration had sold the wick when the first visuals were put online. The character with the new torso will be delivered with a backpack, a camera, a staff and a map of the Outer Rim for the moment exclusive to this book.

You have to pay a little less than 15 € to pre-order this book whose English content will probably not revolutionize the genre but the minifig seems to me rather successful. It's up to you.

lego ninjago hype vip rewards

If you like to use your VIP points to get the rewards offered by LEGO rather than to take advantage of a reduction on your purchases, know that two new rewards have been added to the dedicated area: A bag and a cap in the colors of the recent collaboration between the manufacturer and the HYPE brand.

You have to "spend" 1000 points for the bag or about 6.66 € and 2300 points or the equivalent of 15.33 € for the cap. Don't hang around if you are interested in these two limited edition products, 360 bags and 240 caps are available.

After converting your points, you get a unique code to use when ordering. As usual, it is unfortunately only possible to use one code for a physical reward per order and it will therefore be necessary to place at least two orders to obtain these two products in the colors of the Ninjago range.
