LEGO Star Wars Battle of Hoth mini-movie: Hints on an upcoming set?

08/07/2015 - 08:53 Lego news LEGO Star Wars

This is the "sensation" of the day: LEGO has posted on the site dedicated to the LEGO Star Wars range a new animated mini-film which features the rebel troops and the soldiers of the Empire in a frame very "fresh" for the season: Planet Hoth.

On the sidelines of some already known sets present in this video (75049 Snowspeeder, 75054AT-AT), we discover new original elements that could form the basis of a future LEGO box.

From there to see some clues on the next set that everyone is talking about but which is for the moment only an unconfirmed rumor, the reference 75098 Battle of Hoth which would be marketed by the end of the year, there is only one step that you are free to take if you feel like it.

I picked up the video in question from the official website, you can watch it below, draw any conclusions you find useful and discuss it in the comments.

SDCC 2015: The program of festivities planned by LEGO

06/07/2015 - 19:39 Lego news

For those interested, here is the program of festivities organized by LEGO for the San Diego Comic Con which will open its doors Thursday.

Let's go over the details related to the raffle to get the three exclusive sets sold for $ 39.99 on the LEGO stand (Dagobah Mini-Build, Throne of Ultron and Action Comics # 1 Superman) or the two exclusive minifigs announced (Sam Wilson aka Captain America et Roy "Arsenal" Harper), the most interesting in this calendar being the announced presentation of some official sets.

On Thursday, LEGO "unveils" the Batmobile from the movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice that we were able to discover a few days ago.

Friday will be the turn of a Ninjago set, probably the highly anticipated exclusive set 70751 Temple of Airjitzu.

On Saturday a set from the LEGO Star Wars range will be presented to visitors. This is probably the set 75096 Sith Infiltrator, or a presentation to the general public of the First Order Stormtrooper recently unveiled, unless LEGO introduces one of the sets based on Star Wars: The Force Awakens in preview and with the agreement of Disney, knowing that the embargo is total on the products derived from the film, until next September 4.
