LEGO Star Wars - 6005188 Darth Maul

A small point on the sums spent by the most impatient on eBay to acquire the choice of a bag 6005188 Darth Maul or a minifig of TC-14 in Chrome Silver ...

Still, I'm sometimes ready to spend a hefty sum on something that might become rather rare and difficult to find later on, but now I'm shocked to see that 28 people have spent $ 140 for a bag of Darth Maul which will most likely be again offered by LEGO and the price of which should in any case drop quickly on Bricklink, and that already 12 people have spent $ 120 for a minifig of TC-14 which we know will be offered by LEGO on May 4, 2012 for $ 75 of purchases in the LEGO Star Wars range ...

When I think of all that I can read on various forums regarding the LEGO pricing policy, the increasing prices, the exorbitant cost per piece, etc ... I find it hard to make the connection with this type of irrational eBay spending ...

Especially since in these two cases, these are products which will be available in probably sufficient quantity thereafter and which in any case will still be distributed to the general public ...

Spider-Man vs. Green Goblin - A Tribute to Frank Dillane - Xenomurphy

If you follow Brick Heroes, you already know Xenomurphy ... I have already presented you here several of his MOCs on the theme of superheroes (see these tickets).

It is on purpose that I do not put you here a general view of this MOC, I leave you the surprise of discovering this scene in its entirety.

To discover urgently, with many close-ups on MOCpages space by Xenomurphy and the general presentation of the MOC on his flickr gallery.

You already know that I like Steine ​​Imperium, the German forum which brings together the German-speaking community and of which Bane is one of the moderators. There are many MOCs, new information (it's not just Eurobricks in life) and even if Google Translate does its job with a lot of approximation, we manage to navigate with a little patience .

The forum now has its blog: Blog of Steine, also in German, which publishes the most interesting news on the LEGO world. It will be necessary to follow it to be sure not to miss anything of the news LEGO, the Germans accustomed us to offer us some exclusives well before the English-speaking sources. Bookmark this blog for me and take a look from time to time, you never know ...

Tumbler v2 by _Tiler

This new version is presented here in a staging that is teeming with details. Too bad the photo is so limited in size, it does not allow us to fully enjoy this excellent presentation.

Also, I make a call to _Tiler, I know it reads me, to finally provide us with some instructions to reproduce this excellent Tumbler: Calin, if you read this, please provide some instructions so all of us can reproduce this excellent Tumbler ...
