LEGO Speed ​​Champions 76904 Mopar Dodge // SRT Top Fuel Dragster & 1970 Dodge Challenger T / A

The LEGO Speed ​​Champions set 76904 Mopar Dodge // SRT Top Fuel Dragster & 1970 Dodge Challenger T / A is already available in at least one US Target store and we therefore get some visuals of this new box which features two Dodge brand vehicles.

On the one hand, a dragster currently competing in competitions organized by the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) and on the other, a reproduction of the 1970 Challenger Trans Am which participated in the races of the Sports Car Club of America's Trans American Sedan Championship Trans Am.

Dressing the dragtser with the stickers promises to be epic and this box of 627 pieces will be available next June at a public price rumored to be around € 60.

Other sets are obviously planned in this new wave of products stamped Speed ​​Champions and the latest rumors to date evoke the following references: 76900 Koenigsegg Jesko (280coins), 76901 Toyota GR Supra (299coins), 76902 McLaren Elva (263coins), 76903 Chevrolet Corvette C8-R & 1968 Chevrolet Corvette C3 (512coins) and 76905 Ford GT Heritage Edition & Bronco R.

bricklink designer program robenanne projects

If you follow the evolution of Bricklink Designer Program 2021, you have undoubtedly noticed that the three projects of Robert Bontenbal alias Robenanne, Boat House Diner, Boat Repair Shop and The Dive Shop were now with absent subscribers, the platform indicating that these three creations were "archived" because of "other obligations" which forced the designer to withdraw them.

The explanation for this early withdrawal is very simple: Robert Bontenbal had already signed an agreement with the German company Blue Brixx which currently markets five creations by the designer in question under its own brand.

Too bad for all those who hoped to be able to afford some MOCs in the same vein as the fishing store from the LEGO Ideas set 21310 Old Fishing Store marketed in 2017, it will be necessary to ignore or resolve to buy products made from "alternative" bricks which are sold between 120 and 140 € by the German brand.

harry potter lego 20 anniversary 2021 golden minifigures

20 years is worth celebrating and LEGO intends to celebrate as it should be the anniversary of the Harry Potter range with six golden minifigs that will be divided into six of the sets planned for this year.

To put together this small collection of minifigs with their matching stand and wand including Harry Potter, Lord Voldemort, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Severus Snape (Severus Snape) and Professor Quirinus Quirrell, you will need to invest in half a dozen boxes. for which we do not yet know the content or the public price. The graphic staging of each of the minifigs must in principle be a clue to the stage or the place that will be represented in the set concerned. Either way, summer promises to be expensive.

LEGO 71030 Looney Tunes Collectible Minifigures Series

The "official" announcement of these minifigs has not yet taken place but some can already buy them: boxes of 36 sachets of the minifigs of the Looney Tunes character series to collect (ref. 71030) are on sale and the first visuals of this collection of 12 characters are now available.

The series of 12 characters consists of the following figures:

  • The Tasmanian Devil (Taz)
  • Speedy Gonzales
  • GrosMinet / Sylvester (Sylvester)
  • Tweety (Tweety)
  • Lola Bunny
  • Bugs Bunny
  • Petunia pig
  • Porky Pig
  • Daffy Duck
  • Marvin the Martian
  • Wile E. Coyote (Wile E. Coyote)
  • Beep-Beep (Road Runner)

As with all licensed collectible minifig series, some may regret the absence of this or that character based on their childhood memories and for me it is mostly Sam the Pirate (Yosemite Sam) and Pépé le Putois (Pépé Le Pew) which are missing here. No chance of seeing the skunk one day in minifigure format, the character has been permanently removed from the Looney Tunes bestiary by Warner Bros. due to criticism related to his behavior in certain scenes.

There should be three complete sets of 12 characters in a box of 36 sachets but it will be necessary to wait for several buyers to confirm the distribution. LEGO sent me a box to offer you a review of this series of characters in the coming days but after inventory, one of the 12 characters is missing in the box and another is provided in 6 copies instead of 3 ...
