For those who are interested, know that the two novelties of the Botanical Collection LEGO are now referenced on the official store and it is now possible to pre-order these two boxes with an availability promised for February 1, 2023:

Notice to fans of plastic flowers, the LEGO ICONS range Botanical Collection will be expanded from February 1, 2023 with two new references: a bouquet of wild flowers of 939 pieces which will be available at the public price of 59.99 € and a centerpiece made from dried flowers of 812 pieces which will be available at the public price of €49.99.

It's as usual, you see, some will find all this distressingly old-fashioned where others will see a great effort of creativity. Tastes and colors do not argue.

It's January 1, 2023 and LEGO is marketing a very large handful of new sets from today on its official online store with an assortment that covers many in-house or licensed ranges.

As usual, it's up to you to see whether to crack without waiting by paying the full price for these boxes or whether to show a little patience and wait for the inevitable reductions that will be offered in the boxes. weeks and months to come at Amazon, on FNAC.com and at a few other resellers.

At the end of the participation phase, the winner will be chosen by lot from the correct answers. Participation is free and without obligation to purchase.

Your contact details (name / nickname, email address, IP) are only used within the framework of this competition and will not be kept beyond the drawing of lots which will designate the winner. As usual, this no-obligation competition is open to all residents of mainland France, DOM & TOM, Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland.

The set is as usual generously provided by LEGO, it will be sent to the winner by me as soon as his contact details are confirmed by return email. Attention, the box is not in perfect condition, the fault of the logistics.

As always, I reserve the right to disqualify any participant who has attempted to defraud or hijack the entry system in order to increase their chances of winning. Hateful and bad losers to abstain, the others will have more chances to win.

Good luck to everyone !

No participation via comments, I leave the form open as long as the contestants who cannot read are not yet there. Then we close.

For information: the name / nickname of the winner is displayed in the participation interface once the draw has been made. I also notify the winners by email, but remember to check anyway.

LEGO officially unveils the set today 31208 Hokusai: The Great Wave, a new reference in the LEGO ART range, whose 1810 pieces will make it possible from January 1, 2023 to assemble an interpretation of the famous Japanese print The Great Wave off Kanagawa.

Like the LEGO Ideas set 21333 Vincent Van Gogh - The Starry Night, the work here takes on a little relief to highlight the wave that threatens the boats and create a depth effect towards Mount Fuji in the background. If the original print measures 38 x 26 cm, the LEGO version is more ambitious with larger measurements: 52 x 39 cm.

It will cost 99.99 € to afford this box.
