I received my copy and I must say that I take great pleasure in leafing through it at leisure. Some will no doubt see it more of a compilation of everything LEGO will ever produce than a real dive behind the scenes of the film, but it is nonetheless a great synthesis of the creative odyssey that culminated in the film as we know it. .

Throughout the pages, we discover the many concept arts at the origin of the characters, their costumes, their vehicles and their environment. We regret that this or that version of a minifigure is not marketed, we discover vehicles for which we would like to be able to obtain the instructions and we learn a little more about the architectural influences that give the various buildings of Gotham City their final look. Preliminary sketches, 3D models and renderings, alternative versions, everything is there.

Official The LEGO Batman Movie Magazine: The Joker with the # 2

The number 1 of the new official magazine The LEGO Batman Movie is available and we logically discover the gift that will accompany the next issue.

It is therefore the Joker with his tailcoat and his two sticks of dynamite that will be offered next April.

With this number 1, a Batman minifigure that we have already talked about a lot (too much), since it is the version present in the sets 70901 Mr. Freeze Ice Attack, 70904 Clayface Splat Attack or even 70910 Scarecrow Special Delivery and in Polybags 30522 Batman in the Phantom Zone et 5004930 Accessory Pack,

The Joker minifigure offered with number 2 is obviously not more new than Batman, it is the version seen in the set 70900 The Joker Balloon Escape and in the polybag 30523 The Joker Battle Training.

It is therefore the bags used to package these minifigs which are "collectors" and "exclusive".

So there is nothing to be enthusiastic about for this new publication sold for € 6.50. In about forty pages, the publisher offers in passing a few comics with a slightly sloppy design, two posters, a little advertising for the sets from the The LEGO Batman Movie range and a mask to cut out.

It's confirmed, the first issue of the official The LEGO Batman Movie magazine, published by DIPA Youth, will be available from February 10 at your newsagent.

Inside, content intended for the youngest with, among other things, two comics and two posters.

As a gift with this first issue, a minifig of Batman (again him ...) with not one, but two batarangs. As usual with this type of product, it is especially the bag (ref. 211701) that will become a collector ...

Even if we already know that the N ° 2 of this magazine will allow us to obtain a minifigure of the Joker, there is no guarantee that we will be entitled to a minifigure with each number. There will probably be a few minis Bat-things in the lot.

If you had already purchased this sachet for thirty dollars on eBay, remember that patience can often save you some money ...
