LEGO Marvel Super Heroes - 2013 Iron Man

It's crazy how people have trouble with the truth: Obviously the minifigure above is not a simple "leak" as I have read or heard it elsewhere ... It should also stop putting the word "leak" on anything and everything ...

This is a 2013 range minifigure stolen by someone who sells it at a high price on eBay. Point.

That being said, here we are with a new (and magnificent) version of Iron Man scheduled for 2013. Difficult to say for the moment in which set we will find this armor, which we also see in the trailer of movie.

Lego micro square

Here's how to go from the joy of seeing a series of micro-scale construction videos arrive on YouTube to the despair of realizing that these videos are appallingly null ...

The idea was nevertheless excellent: A web-series devoted to the micro format and animated by Master Builders who were to deliver tons of professional stuff to us, at least according to the pitch of the thing:

"... Welcome to MICRO SQUARE, the LEGO® brick-built web series that's all about tips, tricks and building secrets from the LEGO® master builders, all in micro-scale! ..."

In the end, episodes of barely one minute in which the first 20 seconds are squatted by the credits ... and the Master Builders in question, poor animators, who play Mac Lesguy on us. It feels like on M6 or GameOne ...

You are going to tell me: But it's for children !!! So what !!! We can also not take them for leftovers and teach them some cool techniques for children !!!

Come on, I put the last "episode" to date below, just to furnish and I invite you to go to LEGO YouTube channel to view previous episodes.

Lord of the Rings

Since we are between us, a little riddle that you probably already know with a reward:

What has roots that no one sees,
Who is taller than the trees,
Who goes up, who goes up,
And yet who never grows?

When you have the answer, find the location corresponding to the clue in the image above and click.

Grand opening party of the LEGO Store Lille from January 30 to February 2, 2013

Last reminder concerning the inauguration of the LEGO Store in Lille January 30 to February 2, 2013.

On the menu of gifts in spades: Superb t-shirts stamped "LILLE" (!!?) On Wednesday, a sublime yellow t-shirt on Thursday, 10% reduction if you participate in the big LEGO construction event (??) ) from 10 a.m. to 20 p.m. (Wednesday and Saturday) and 12 p.m. to 20 p.m. (Thursday and Friday).

More seriously, only the set 3300003-1 LEGO Brand Store offered on Friday, and perhaps the collector's pack of 3 minfigs on Saturday justify the trip.

The only condition to be entitled to the announced gifts: Spending at least 30 € on the spot, which you will grant me is not very complicated ...

If anyone can take a picture of the endless line in front of the Store Friday morning, I'm a taker.

LEGO Star Wars The Yoda Chronicles

It is not the big madness on the side of The Yoda Chronicles but it moves a little all the same: We can discover a second video and download another poster in pdf format.

It's lean, we are far from the promises made by Yoda himself on his blog and we were expecting something more exciting ...

The poster is available for download by clicking on the image above, and the video for Episode 2 can be found below:
