Sorry to all those who are exasperated by this Harlem Shake fad, but as for the video I posted on Brick Heroes I thought that this one deserved a passage on this blog so it is successful ...

Unless you live in a basement with no internet access, you know the Harlem Shake.

Everyone is currently going for their two-step streak with a few seconds of big nonsense.

Sorry to pollute you with that here, but this SpastikChuwawa brickfilm deserves its 40 seconds of fame. It's so well staged that I couldn't resist ...

When discovering the first visuals of the Iron Man 3 sets, we could legitimately have some doubts about the minifig representation of the character of the Mandarin, played on the screen by Ben Kingsley.

Un new "teaser" poster for the movie just unveiled and it stars the villain of Iron Man 3.

The idea is not new, it has even already been tested on certain references in early 2011.

In addition to environmental considerations, LEGO adds that consumers and resellers will find their way there: The former will be able to handle the boxes more easily and the latter will be able to put more of them on their shelves.

We could add that a packaging more adapted to the size of its content will undoubtedly avoid some disappointments among the brand's youngest customers.
How many times have I seen my son vigorously shake an enormous barely open box, hoping to see a little more than the few bags and the sheet of stickers present ...
