You know, times are tough and at this hour we still have no certainty that LEGO will release us a Tumbler in camouflage version, so I am going all out ...

It's mahjqa that brings me my daily ration with two Tumblers mixing bricks and Technic elements that I had at first found very average, but which after a few minutes of observation convinced me to present them to you here.

Public chat his flickr gallery, mahjqa also offers a version integrating the LED system from Lifelites.

We know that Peter Jackson doesn't like to do things by halves. He prefers to do them in three thirds ... And so the film in two parts The Hobbit will become a trilogy, as confirmed by Peter Jackson himself on his facebook page.

The first opus (The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey) will be released in December 2012, the second (The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies) in December 2013 and the third is announced for summer 2014. Contrary to what may have been said at the start, the third part will not bridge the gap with the trilogy Lord of the Rings but will be centered like the first two parts on the story developed by Tolkien in The Hobbit. It would simply be a question of changing the hyphenation points of the first two opus to integrate the third epiosde whose title is not yet known in the announced trilogy.

Does this mean that we will be entitled to even more LEGO sets based on this new trilogy? No doubt that yes, LEGO will undoubtedly take advantage of it, like the director, to dilute its production on this theme according to the releases to the cinema then in Blu-ray / DVD.

Good news received by email just now: Hoth Bricks has obtained its press accreditation for the New York Comic-Con 2012. 

The validation process is laborious, you have to provide tons of information, examples of editorial content, etc ... and it is only after several weeks of waiting that the organizers validate or deny the request.

Beyond the satisfaction of having been able to obtain this accreditation, it is above all an opportunity to access live information from the show and not be forced, as too often, to obtain it from the American media present on site. This year for example, FBTB was almost the only LEGO media to provide full coverage of San Diego Comic Con and it is always with a little frustration that we had to follow this event through them to get the information we are. all fond.

New York Comic Con is not the fair where LEGO usually unveils big news, but every year some interesting information is communicated to fans. With the success of the LEGO Super Heroes range, I hope that this show will be the opportunity to offer you live some images and some articles that will be the work of yours truly, just to show that we also the French are present on big events. If the operation proves successful, it will be repeated on other occasions, notably in San Diego next year or at an upcoming Toy Fair.

All fans of the Extended Universe will undoubtedly appreciate seeing the Wild Karrde reproduced in LEGO, the ship of the smuggler Talon Karrde which makes its first appearance in Heir to the Empire (Thrawn's Trilogy). Without going into the specifics of the type's history, let's just say that this ship has been discreetly reinforced to be able to withstand attacks and is equipped with three retractable turbolaser cannons ...

In short, those who know the machine will appreciate, the others will learn about everything that surrounds this vessel with original shapes and colors that change us from the eternal gray too sad, and which is here very well reproduced if we trust the different sources. visuals that can be found in two mouse clicks on the internet.

Nice work that deserves a look and the MOCeur in question, who calls himself LukeClarenceVan The Revanchist will show you more on its MOCpages space.
