Here are finally the official visuals of the set 76009 Superman Black Zero Escape that we were able to discover during the last Nürnberg Toy Fair.

168 parts for a pod in which Lois Lane is apparently imprisoned and a control / combat station for Zod. 3 minifigs therefore, with Lois Lane, General Zod and Superman in his new outfit.

We will have to wait for the release of the film Man of Steel on June 19 to understand a little better what is really happening in this scene ...

This set is currently available pre-order from amazon.

I skipped over this info when these new magnet wrappers appeared online or in toy stores a few weeks ago: I'm not a big fan of these magnets stuck to their plinth.

I find no use for them and the door of my fridge is already cluttered with magnets of all kinds offered with the Pitch brioches or with yoghurts ...

These new versions are now equipped with a magnetic base which serves as a background to stage the minifig which is firmly fixed on the base. Visually, it's convincing, but it's apparently impossible to detach the minifigure from its base, at least without damaging it.

All licensed ranges are affected (Star Wars, Super Heroes, LOTR / The Hobbit) and you will find some for sale on eBay including.

We continue with the official visuals of the LEGO Lord of the Rings sets from the second wave of 2013: Here are the sets 79006 Council of Elrond et 79005 The Wizard Battle.

Nice inventory and above all excellent endowment in minifigs for set 79006 with Frodo, Elrond, Gimli and Arwen.

Regarding set 79005, I secretly hope that the platform on which Gandalf (This is the fourth set in the range to include this character ...) and Saruman clash is destined to fit into something bigger . You follow me ? 

Note that these two sets are already in pre-order at Amazon, find the on pricevortex.com.

This is the blog allaboutbricks who publishes an interesting interview with Steve Lettieri, one of the creatives who has been working with LEGO for two years on several types of multimedia content (Videos, comics, web-series, illustrations on boxes, etc.)

We learn in particular that Killer Minnow has worked on a large number of ranges: LEGO Star Wars, City, TMNT, Ninjago, Monster Fighters, Master Builder Academy, Games, Superheroes and Galaxy Squad, and that the studio is very involved in the development of the The Yoda Chronicles project centered on the flagship character of the mini saga: Jek-14, including one concept art is shown above.

If you are fluent in English, take a few minutes to read the entire interview offered by allaboutbricks.

Here are the official visuals of the LEGO Star Wars sets planned for the second half of 2013.

No surprises, we have already been able to discover all of these sets from every angle during the previous Toy Fair.

Everyone has probably already formed an opinion on this second wave 2013 and these images will not make you change your mind, one way or the other, for that matter ...

Note that these sets are already pre-order from amazon with the mention "Coming soon".
