khatmorg Jedi Defender-Class Cruiser vs LEGO 75025 Jedi Defender-Class Cruiser

I presented to you a month ago the Khartmog MOC of the JediDefender-Class Cruiser (See this article).

The MOCeur publishes today on his flickr gallery an interesting series of photos presenting his creation alongside the official LEGO version of the set 75025. Thus presented side by side, the two models (on the left that of khartmog, on the right that of LEGO) are easily comparable and everyone can analyze the differences notable between the two vessels despite an almost similar scale.

If you want to see more about this parallel between two versions of the same ship, one of which is an MOC and the other an "official" version, go to khartmog's flickr gallery, many views are available.

Back to the Future ™ Time Machine (Image posted by bricknews.co.uk)

This is the site bricknews.co.uk which reveals via the visual above what the LEGO Back to the Future ™ set will ultimately be, thus answering all the fans' questions and reassuring all those, including me, who thought that the set would not contain minifigs:

A vehicle whose instructions will reproduce the three different versions of the DeLorean seen in the episodes of the trilogy Back To The Future.

2 minifigs: MartyMcFly and Doc Emmet Brown.

A booklet provided with lots of info and photos relating to the BTTF trilogy.

A retail price of £ 34.99 (For Great Britain).

Following K's comment, here is the Danish television video presenting the Cuusoo team and various prototypes including the DeLorean one.

LEGO Cuusoo BTTF DeLorean Preliminary Model

It was in December 2012 that Tim Courtney presented in a video summary of the results of the summer 2012 review the first model in preliminary version of the DeLorean LEGO inspired by the m.togami project. Again, the vehicle was presented alone, without minifigs or accessories.

From there to draw the conclusion that LEGO plans to market a set containing only the vehicle, it is only a step that the community was quick to take.

Obviously, the set has not yet been officially presented, it is better to remain cautious and hope that LEGO has taken care to include MartyMcFly and Doc Emmet Brown in this set which is already generating disappointment among LEGO enthusiasts but that the fans of the saga Back To The Future fond of derivative products and goodies of all kinds await impatiently.

Below is the video in question.

Enroute for a small brickfilm superbly directed by the team of Brotherhood Workshop led by Kevin Ulrich.

Note on this brickfilm which takes place in front of the Black Door (The Black Gate), a particularly fluid and well-edited fight scene.

About Jerry, I'll let you watch the other Lord of the Rings videos offered by Brotherhood Workshop, you will understand where this running gag comes from.
