_Tiler is a really talented designer. I had the opportunity to admire some sketches that he keeps confidential of his work on different minifig projects and I think that we achieve what is currently best in terms of creativity when we talk about minfigs customs.

Today he presents his custom of Red Hood, character from the DC Comics universe who feeds a whole legend about his origins and the different characters who have worn the costume. In Batman: Under the Red Hood, it is a resuscitated Jason Todd, ex Robin who hides under the mask of Red Hood.

I obviously ordered my copy from Christo, who prints the _Tiler minifigs, and I'm looking forward to it ... It has also become very complicated to be able to afford some customs at Christo on eBay because the auctions are 'fly on the most coveted minifigs ....

And it's always better than nothing while waiting for something better: GRogall is still rife and offers us the visuals of the boxes of the sets of the second wave 2012.

It is by a brief press release on his blog that the LEGO Cuusoo team announces the news: The project Winchester Shaun of the Dead that had reached 10.000 supporters will not happen. Point.

The advanced explanation holds up: The project, or in any case the film from which it is inspired, is not compatible with the manufacturer's target clientele: 6-11 year olds. End of the discussion. A whole paragraph follows praising Yatkuu, the MOCeur behind the project, and the thing is folded.

In short, I suspected a little, and even if some wanted to believe it because of the popular and media enthusiasm that this MOC will have generated.

LEGO's argument is still a bit dubious: It would have been enough to identify the product as Collector for Adults, and voila ... In short, once again LEGO is more about its own image as a manufacturer respectful of its pseudo non-violence policy, than the demand of its potential customers ...

The Bionicle / Hero Factory type figures from the Super Heroes range do not stir up passions, to say the least. The 4530 set is no exception to the rule and NorbyZERO has set about making some good changes to give it a massive and imposing appearance that better matches the character.

So no more frail legs, blue shorts and gray shoulder pads. Here we come back to the basics: The body is green, the pants purple. The whole thing gains in density and the Hulk finally looks like the disproportionate and over-inflated green guy we know. NorbyZERO succeeds in the bet, however not necessarily won in advance, to make me appreciate this modified figurine by giving it the appearance it would have deserved from the start ....
