It's rumored season and the expected sets references for 2016 are fueling discussions. After the full list of Star Wars sets for the first half of the year, here's some info on the new DC Comics releases expected in the coming months.

On the one hand, we are predicted to have an exclusive set (Direct 2 Consumer) with a Batcave based on the Batman 66 TV series: 76052 Batman Classic TV Series Batcave. No public price or precise description for the moment.

Remember, LEGO had already made a remarkable foray into this kitsch and cult universe with the exclusive set sold during San Diego Comic Con in 2014. This same set containing a Batmobile accompanied by Batman and Robin could also foreshadow a sub-theme coming in the Marvel and DC Comics ranges: There is a lot of talk about the upcoming Marvel and DC Comics references announced for the retail price of € 9.99 and some believe that they could be sets of the type "Racers", containing a character and a mini-vehicle.

I see it as a Marvel and DC Comics-style variation of the principle of Microfighters from the Star Wars range, the third wave of which is also expected in early 2016 with in particular the reference 75127 The Ghost based on the Star Wars Rebels animated series. A Chibi version of this ship was marketed in 2014 at San Diego Comic Con and Fan Expo in Canada.

Another DC Comics reference expected in the coming months: The set 76053 Batman Gotham City Cycle Chase. We do not yet know anything about the contents of this box, the public price of which was unveiled by Amazon a few days ago: 24.99 €.

Finally, for the Ninjago range, a dozen references bearing the mention "ninjago movie"are announced (70606 to 70617). It is difficult to know if these boxes will actually be marketed in 2016 and I remind you that the release of the film, initially scheduled for 2016, has been postponed to September 22, 2017.

For those interested, a list of sets in the range "Seasonal"is also available. We find there in bulk the exclusive sets traditionally offered or sold by LEGO for the end of the year celebrations as well as the references that will probably join the micro-modulars already distributed by Toys R Us during the operation. Bricktober.

If you are a fan of Star Wars and derivative products based on the franchise which will resume service on December 18 at the cinema, you probably already know that Friday September 4, 2015 is the day chosen by Disney to launch on a scale world an unprecedented marketing and commercial operation pompously named "force friday".

From midnight, it will therefore be possible to spend your money on products derived from the film. Star Wars: The Force Awakens. No need to have seen a movie to afford a souvenir, now we do the opposite ... LEGO will obviously be there with seven boxes that should be on sale from D-Day on the LEGO Shop and in the LEGOs Blinds. Those in a hurry will be able to treat themselves and parents who are wondering what to offer for Christmas will have nearly four months to organize themselves and put a Millennium Falcon under the Christmas tree.

Unfortunately, it's still unclear whether this massive launch will be an opportunity for the most die-hard fans to be rewarded for their readiness to spend their money. LEGO has not yet announced any promotional offer specific to this force friday, although I hope that we will at least have the right to an exclusive polybag for the occasion ...

Nothing either from the side of the French brands specializing in toys. While Toys R Us USA is currently communicating extensively on this operation which will take place in less than a month, with an exclusive brick and LEGO Star Wars poster offered to the bravest who will be there at midnight, the merchants of France are still strangely silent. .

And you, what are you going to do on September 4th? Will you be in front of your screen from 00:00 to acquire the new LEGO Star Wars sets? Who will pay more than 600 € to afford the entire new wave of sets?

Do you want to know almost everything about the novelties of the first half of 2016? Rejoice, Amazon Germany reveals almost everything about the sets planned for next year: References, titles (more or less provisional) and public prices are online on the German version of Amazon. No visuals for now but most of these new features are even available for pre-order.

I will not list here all the ranges put online, I will let you go on Pricevortex, updated by me from the information published in bulk on Eurobricks, to visualize the expected sets in your favorite ranges.

Note, however, the arrival in 2016 of the range Lego nexo knights with a dozen boxes. This range with Castle / Steampunk accents is therefore the one we were discussing a few days ago (LEGO "Big Bang").

On the side of the LEGO Star Wars range, the latest rumors are confirmed and we find all the sets announced. Construction Figures, Battle Packs based on Star Wars: The Force Awakens and the game Star Wars BattlefrontEtc. ...

Concerning the Super Heroes Marvel and DC Comics ranges, the titles of the sets uploaded by Amazon are a bit confusing. However, we find the boxes announced by the latest rumor.

Almost all current ranges are affected by this big update: Friends, Elves, Disney Princess, Architecture, Minecraft, Speed ​​Champions, Juniors, City, Ninjago, Creator, Bionicle, etc ... Everyone should find what they are looking for.

As Amazon references are common to all of the brand's European platforms, prices for France, Spain, Italy and the United Kingdom will be automatically added as soon as one of these boxes appears in the catalog of the others. entities.

The sets referenced by Amazon Germany all display the expected retail price for ... Germany, and that makes sense. If the public price of certain sets may vary for the French market, we already have a relatively precise idea of ​​the budget that will have to be devoted to our favorite ranges in early 2016.

To discover all the novelties expected in early 2016, this is where it takes place.

The party is over. Take advantage of the X-Wing microphone (offered with n ° 1) and the Slave I microphone (offered with n ° 2) present in the new LEGO Star Wars magazine because the next "exclusive" gift is something that even LEGO n did not dare to put in his Advent calendars ...

According to the above visual, which comes from the Spanish version of this magazine aimed at young people, it will therefore be a "imperial turret" or Imperial shooter, As announced a few weeks ago.

We will say, to be polite, that this "exclusive" gift gives pride of place to playability with two Studs shooters which will allow readers to project pieces all over the living room ...

For the rest, as in each issue, we will find two LEGO Star Wars comics and two posters.
