Tony aka Quality Custom Bricks let me know that his Black Flash (I didn't even know who it was ...) is finally available.

This is a custom made in digital printing, as is the case for the Flash minifigure (Le gentil, in red ...) whose I was talking to you here.

You can buy both minifigs as a set for the sum of $ 45 on the Quality Custom Bricks store. Black Flash is also sold separately for $ 25.

For his part, David Hall, alias Solid Brix Studios, offers these minifig heads for Iron Man inspired by the exclusive version distributed in 125 copies during the New York Toy Fair 2012. These pieces of good quality will soon be offered for sale on the online store. minifigs4u.

Everyone celebrates May 3 and 4 in their own way, some spending their money on the LEGO Shop, others participating in various fan gatherings, and the MOCeurs for their part are contributing their contribution with their work.

Omar Ovalle (See his flickr gallery) offers us an X-Wing pilot in the same format as his series of Bounty Hunters busts which I speak to you regularly on this blog.

He has also submitted this series of MOCs on Cuusoo where the project still seems to be in the validation stage by LEGO before publication (See at this address).

And you, what are you doing on May 4, 2013? Have you planned something special, a particular purchase, a MOC, a party, a meeting?

Let's go for the promotional operation of May 3 and 4 on the Lego shop with as previously announced:

The minifig of Han Solo in Hoth Outfit (5001621) free with any order of products in the LEGO Star Wars range reaching at least 55 €.
La free delivery From 30 € of purchases.
A Star Wars poster exclusive (5002505) offered for any order of LEGO Star Wars products no minimum required.

Some sets are offered with a (small) reduction such as the 10188 Death Star (€ 389.99 instead of € 419.99), the 10221 Super Star Destroyer (€ 369.99 instead of € 399.99) or the 10225 R2-D2 (€ 177.99 instead from 199.99 €). These prices remain far too high compared to those charged by amazon for example, despite the proposed reduction.

For my part, I fell for the set as expected 10240 Red Five X-Wing Starfighter.

Le LEGO Store Calendar (US) from June 2013 is available and it gives us an interesting information: The polybag 5001623 Jor-El will therefore be an exclusive product offered through the LEGO Shop from June 1 to 25, 2013.

If we refer to the conditions mentioned on this document, the minifigure will be offered from $ 75 (55 € with us a priori ...) without condition of range.

June seems to be (logically) the month dedicated to Superman (Man of Steel) with a t-shirt, a model "Monthly Mini Build"representing Superman and an operation of which we do not yet know all the details aimed at creating a little buzz on the LEGO Shop facebook page.

After that of Larry Lars, here is the Droideka of Léo alias 1fan alias iléolego on flickr, and I must say that its version largely compares with the one I presented to you previously here.

The end result of this second version is really convincing and for the sake of honesty and fairness, I must therefore highlight it in turn here and give, at my humble level, a little visibility to the work accomplished .

You can find both versions of this Destroyer Droid on the dedicated album of the flickr gallery by 1fan.

A clarification about the many MOCs that I receive by email: I am always inclined to value the work of our French-speaking MOCers who often have nothing to envy of their English-speaking colleagues. But please, try to offer correct photos of your achievements, it is always more pleasant for those who discover them.
