LEGO Star Wars Extra (March 2018)

The new periodicity of the official LEGO Star Wars magazines has entered into force and the first issue of the MEGA quarterly is now available (6.50 €).

It allows to obtain a Imperial Shuttle Pilot already seen in the Microfighters set 75163 Krennic's Imperial Shuttle released in 2017 and a second mini-trick, either the weapons rack already seen in issue 5 of the magazine, or the AT-AT already delivered with issue 15.

We discover in the inside pages the next mini-thing which will be offered with the new quarterly magazine LEGO Star Wars EXTRA: it is about an Imperial Shuttle not very inspired which will join those already produced by LEGO in the polybag Brickmaster 20016 ( 2010), the polybag 30246 (2014) or for older collectors, the set 4494 dating from 2004.

Note: For anyone looking for assembly instructions for the various models offered so far, please note that Panini has posted all of the relevant instructions online. at this address.

LEGO Star Wars magazines: two new titles planned for 2018

The most observant will have noticed that the LEGO Star Wars magazine of January 2018 bears the number 1, indicating a reboot numbering of the title.

This is not a mistake, this title is now becoming quarterly and it will be joined this year by two other LEGO Star Wars magazines.

From February 2, 2018, the first issue of the magazine "Lego star wars wars mega"will be on booth with the Imperial Shuttle Pilot and a second model, followed from March 2, 2018 by the first issue of the magazine "LEGO Star Wars Extra".

Each magazine will have 32 pages with the usual games, comics and advertisements. The version Extras will be delivered with a gift, the version Mega will get two. However, these will be models already offered with previous issues of LEGO magazine. Good news for those who missed a model that came with back issues of the LEGO Star Wars magazine. bad news for those who expected some new stuff.

In short, there will therefore be a LEGO Star Wars magazine every month, all of these titles being quarterly.

LEGO Star Wars Magazine: Imperial Shuttle Pilot in February 2018

Finally a minifigure! The February 2018 issue of the official LEGO Star Wars magazine (# 32) will come with a Imperial Shuttle Pilot.

This minifigure is obviously not new, it is the character seen in the Microfighters set 75163 Krennic's Imperial Shuttle released in 2017. This reference is now considered an old product at LEGO, so you will have a new chance to get this character which will be delivered with a blaster for the occasion.

This is the fourth minifig offered with the LEGO Star Wars magazine since its launch after Kanan Jarrus in January 2017, a Imperial Combat Driver in March 2017 and a Snowtrooper in August 2017.

LEGO Star Wars Magazine: Kylo Ren's Shuttle with January 2018 issue

The December 2017 issue (N ° 30) of the official LEGO Star Wars magazine accompanied by its mini Y-Wing (and a second bag) is on newsstands and we discover the mini-trick that will be offered in January 2018 (N ° 31).

This is Kylo Ren's shuttle, in a version more faithful to the ship seen in the film than that of the polybag 30279 Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle released in 2016 and more compact than the polybag 30380 Kylo Ren's Shuttle expected in 2018. Still no minifig in sight ...
