The time for the LEGO survey has come ... As is the case four times a year, LEGO asks AFOLs questions and then analyzes their responses to draw some lessons and optimize the relationship, commercial or relational, between LEGO and the AFOL community. In any case, that's what we are told.

You have until April 18, 2013 to complete the survey which is, and this is very appreciable, available in French at this address or by clicking on the image above. 

Here's a new video from the upcoming LEGO Marvel Super Heroes game slated for fall 2013 with a gameplay sequence featuring the Hulk, Nick Fury, Spider-Man and Iron Man.

All this foreshadows great hours of entertainment with many game possibilities depending on the superhero chosen and his powers or abilities.

Great job from Pate-keetongu with this series of figures based on the characters from The Hobbit trilogy. Lots of ingenuity and NPU (Nice Part Usage) on these creations grouped together in the image above. Sometimes you will have to zoom in to find out which pieces were used to draw a beard, a shoulder pad, a hand or a braid of hair ...

You can learn more about the creation process for each of the characters at Pate-keetongu's blogOn his flickr gallery ou his Brickshelf space.

Just for confirmation, here is the complete visual from the US Store Calendar which presents the offer concerning the polybag 30167 Iron Man vs. Fighting Drone.

You will have to spend $ 50 in the LEGO Shop or in the LEGO Store between May 16 and May 31, 2013 to get this polybag.

It's an info that is not really an info, but still deserves a few lines ...

In short, Marcos Bessa, LEGO Designer by trade, books on his flickr gallery a teasing about one of the sets he worked on and which is due out later this year: "... A "little" something I've created recently ... Coming later this year! ..."

As shown in the screenshot uploaded by the designer of many sets from the Super Heroes range (6860 The Batcave, for example) and in particular of the set 10937 Arkham Asylum Breakout, this is a collector's set from the 10xxx series for which Marcos Bessa recorded a presentation video, as is always the case with exclusive big sets or UCS sets.

Marcos Bessa also specifies in comment that this is a set for a theme on which he has never worked until now: "... It's a theme I've never worked on before! ;) ...".

From there to think that it is the set 10237 Orthanc, planned this year, it is only one step which many fans are eager to take. Wait and see ...
