70804 Ice Cream Machine (Alternate Build)

I was talking to you beginning of November of three sets from The LEGO Movie range that bear the mention "2in1".

Finally, here are the visuals of the alternative models that it will be possible to build with the contents of these boxes: Above the set 70804 Ice Cream Machine and below the sets 70805 Trash Chomper et 70806 Castle Cavalry.

Note that the set 70811 The Flying Flusher is also a "2in1" (Click here for the visual of the back of the box on which the two models of the set appear).

It's up to you to tell me if the possibility of declining the contents of each of these boxes in two radically different models will be enough to convince you to invest in this range ...

LEGO The Hobbit: The Video Game

We already know that a LEGO The Hobbit video game is slated for 2014, and the social media teasing has only just begun with Warner posting a preview version of the game's cover.

The only interesting info in the story: The game will be based solely on the first two installments of the film trilogy (An Unexpected Journey et The Desolation of Smaug), which makes sense given its release date. But it's still a shame not to be entitled to the full adventure, even if it means waiting until December 2014. Unless a second part of the game is scheduled for the end of the year or early 2015 ...

The LEGO The Hobbit game will be available on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, PC and Mac.

Among the playable characters: Bilbo Baggins, Gandalf the Gray, Thorin, Fíli, Kíli, Óin, Glóin, Dwalin, Balin, Bifur, Bofur, Bombur, Dori, Nori, and Ori. Locations available in the game: Bag End, Hobbiton, The Misty Mountains, Goblin-town, Mirkwood, and Rivendell.

Rhosgobel by LE (G) O Paul

Little wink at LE (G) O Paul, a young 15-year-old MOCeur, who sent me his MOC of Rhosgobel, the home of Radagast seen in the first part of The Hobbit trilogy (An Unexpected Journey).

To reproduce the magician's hut, LE (G) O Paul used parts from the 4738 Hagrid's Hut and 79002 Attack of the Wargs sets.

Well done to him and do not hesitate to send me your creations by email, the best will be published here.
