We can always discuss the form about this second edition of LEGO CON which will have lasted a good two hours, but we must admit that the manufacturer has offered many announcements of products which had not yet been unveiled on the channels. usual frequented by all those who want to know more about the sets to come.
This year's "convention" was therefore in fact much more interesting and rhythmic than last year's, it at least managed to surprise us between two recorded or scripted segments more or less interesting for teenage or adult fans than we are. And it's already a feat when you know that the manufacturer is finding it increasingly difficult to plug the leaks of visuals or information that take place long before the official announcement of its products.
The summer will be hot, it already is, with the releases scheduled for August 1st but there is no rush: these new products are announced at a public price which takes into account the announced increase in certain references. There is therefore no risk that their price will increase by surprise in September.
These products, which are all online in the official store, are not the only ones to be launched on August 1: other LEGO Star Wars, Marvel and Super Mario references already unveiled will also be available on this date. The 23rd series of collectible characters is slated for September, the LEGO Avatar lineup for October.
Following the presentation of the different characters during LEGO CON 2022, the manufacturer has posted the official visuals of the fifth series of characters from the Super Mario universe to collect online and we discover in passing that they are no longer delivered in bags. plastic but in a cardboard box.
It will therefore no longer be possible to dabble in the packaging to try to obtain a complete series without spending too much money and it will be necessary to rely on luck to collect Nabbit (Carottin), Purple Toad (Purple Toad), Hammer Bro (Brother Marto), Waddlewing (Dendinard), Toady (Magikoopa), Baby Yoshi (Baby Yoshi), Red Yoshi (red Yoshi) and Blue Shy Guy (blue Maskass). €5.99 per box, availability announced for August 1, 2022.
