BrotherhoodWorkshop promises more videos to follow and you can follow their current projects on Facebook page.

Another good news (with a touch of irony all the same) with this promo announced for the month of September on the LEGO Shop: This polybag with the reference 40076 will be offered for any order (minimum amount and / or range concerned not defined ).

You will have all noticed that the minifigure is already well known to fans of the Monster Fighters range: it is indeed found in the sets 30200 Zombie Coffin Car, 9464 The Vampyre Hearse et 9465 The Zombies. You will tell me that if it's free, that's always what it takes and you'll be right.

We will know more about this promotion in the coming days.
