LEGO continues relentlessly uploading presentations long awaited minifigs from the Lord of the Rings range. On the menu these days, Gollum, that I had shamefully forgotten, a Nazgal ou ringwraith and Uruk-hai.
The more I see these 3D renderings, the more I tell myself that in the end, all this teasing is very well organized to make customers' mouths water. Between the mini sites, video animations, 3D renderings, catalogs and box design, LEGO knows how to highlight its products, at the risk of creating a kind of general mini-disappointment when unpacking the set.
If we look in detail at the visuals of the boxes of the Lord of the Rings range (This is also valid for the other ranges), we quickly realize that the substance of the staging has a lot to do with the staging. value of plastic. Once on the shelves of your favorite stores, attracted by these ultra-luscious visuals, you buy a staging, with all its possibilities, and its part of dreams ...
But admit that the Mines of Moria on the living room table with its pretty red and white checkered tablecloth or Helm's Deep on the blue low-pile carpet in the bedroom, it immediately makes you feel worse ...
In short, marketing is obviously king, and over the months of cleverly conducted teasing, a product is visually printed in its most idealized form.
Unpacking the long-awaited set is a bit like a hangover after an evening of drunkenness: It's hard and sometimes we regret having committed some excess ....
Moreover, this is my question of the day: Have you ever been frankly disappointed after buying a set and waiting for more, without really knowing what, than the few bits of plastic it contains?
Let's go for a new series of very good quality visuals of minifigs and sets from the next wave of LEGO Super Heroes Marvel.
The whole gets better at the rate of the publication of images and Iron Man could even manage to convince me ....
On the other hand, it is also confirmed that I will save myself space by buying only the minifigs of this range .... I would gladly do without this helicopter, this pick-up and this pseudo-base of Hulk .... and I'm not even talking about motorcycles ....
Special mention for Black Widow who is beautiful ...
6868 Hulk's Helicarrier Breakout
6865 Captain America's Avenging Cycle

When you think about it, it makes sense: Dorling Kindersley editions books are regularly published on the various popular LEGO themes and the Super Heroes range is no exception to the rule.
This year we will be entitled to a 96-page book whose title is unsurprising: LEGO® Batman: The Visual Dictionary.
The release date is scheduled for September 2012. An exclusive minifig will be offered with the book as is already the case for the two books relating to the LEGO Star Wars range: LEGO® Star Wars The Visual Dictionary et LEGO® Star Wars Character Encyclopedia.
If we stick to the description in English on the publisher's site: ... An illustrated timeline shows every LEGO Batman set ever produced ..., this book could include all the sets already released in the LEGO Batman universe and could therefore include those from the 2006-2008 range. But this remains to be confirmed pending further information.
Amazon already references this book: LEGO® Batman: The Visual Dictionary. You can also find it in the Brick Heroes store.
See the sheet of the book at the publisher Dorling Kindersley.
We already know this machine in the LEGO universe: It had been vaguely reproduced in the set 7255 General Grievous Chase released in 2005. Yet this Personal Wheel Bike whose code name is Tsmeu-6 deserved better than that ....
Omar Ovalle offers his version of this machine, originally two-seater but modified by Grievous to install two laser cannons, seen in theEpisode III: Revenge of the Sith during the chase between Grievous and Obi-Wan Kenobi mounted on his Boga (see Omar Ovalle's version in this article).
Whether or not we like the use of figurines in these scenes, this Tsmeu-6 is successful, and I really like it: It is rather faithful to the model of the film, and deserves its title of Monday morning MOC. ... Have a good week.
