Lego lord of the rings

We do not yet know if this is a simple poster or the cover of the video game which is due out on October 26, but it is in any case very successful.

We discover on this poster / cover some additional elements of the bestiary and characters of the game and / or the LEGO Lord of the Rings range with a Mumak in the background and a Fell Beast overlapped by the Witch King of Angmar ( Lord of the Nazgul).

Note that amazon.de offers pre-order a collector's PS3 version of the game accompanied by an exclusive Elrond minifig.

LEGO Friends 3316 Advent Calendar

You have been several (parents) to write to me recently to ask me to add the set 3316 LEGO Friends Advent Calendar at Pricevortex. It's done, and this set is available for pre-order at a price of 19.99 € on amazon Italy (availability date indicated on September 1, 2012) and amazon Germany (availability date indicated on September 29, 2012).

A rumor relayed by toysnbricks reports a problem related to production which could have consequences in terms of availability in the coming weeks. It is to be taken with very big tweezers, no official confirmation having taken place from the manufacturer, but it seems that a quality problem on certain parts contained in this set has been detected in a factory of the brand "working for the American market and not located in Western Europe" (Mexico?).

As a result, production would be slowed down pending a solution to this problem and transferred to other manufacturing units.

In short, if you want this set, which should quickly become a bestseller among girls fans of LEGO, under the tree, do not wait to place your pre-order, because if the information turns out to be correct, even a temporary shortage could take place.
