8028 Mini Tie Fighter

Do you still have money to spend? So go to the LEGO Shop, spend € 55 on LEGO Star Wars items and you get free shipping and a set 8028 Mini Tie Fighter as a gift. This Tie Fighter is nothing new: This bag set was released in 2008 and consists of 44 pieces. It is regularly offered during various and varied promotional operations ...

It is certainly not the gift of the century, but since LEGO does not usually offer us much, this offer deserved to be highlighted (thank you Bly ...)

Wicket (Ewok), Imperial V-Wing Pilot, Jar Jar Binks

I know that you are generally moderately enthusiastic about these magnets, but I tell myself that there will always be a fan to go and stick these things on his fridge to remind everyone that he loves LEGO and Star Wars. .

So here are the clean visuals of two of these magnet packs with: Wicket (Ewok), an Imperial V-Wing Pilot and Jar Jar Binks (853414 - € 9.99 in the LEGO Shop) in the first pack and Aurra Sing, Embo and an ARF Trooper in the second (853421 - € 9.99 in the LEGO Shop) and Luke Skywalker (Hoth), Emperor Palpatine, Imperial Officer in the third.

As you already said in the comments of the post announcing the availability of these packs in Germany, there are some more or less risky techniques to take these minifigs off their base. But apart from hanging your shopping list on the fridge door, I still don't see any use, even playful, in these magnets. The bravest will always be able to enjoy the different interesting elements such as Aurra Sing's hair, weapons etc ...

Blake's Baericks - Nazgul & Fell Beast

It is no longer worth presenting this talented MOCeur really inspired by the universe of Lord of the Rings, and they are currently not very numerous to offer creations on this theme. This should surely change with the official release of the range which will allow MOCeurs to stage the long-awaited minifigs ...

Blake's Baericks presents today a successful scene, which is full of details and finds to make it simply epic: This Nazgal ( ringwraith,Ulairi et Black rider) and its mount, commonly called Fell BeastBlack wingsThe Winged Messengerwinged NazgalWinged Steeds, Wraiths on Wings, Fell Rider of the Air et Black Rider of the Air) sits on its base amid the ragged corpses and dismembered minifigs. Moreover on MOC, Blake's Baericks really dismembered the minifig shameless ...

 You absolutely have to go to Blake's Baericks flickr gallery where you can zoom in at will on the different views it offers ...

Well, we are not going to hide the face, it is very very heavy which awaits us for the end of April 2012. Of the superheroes by buckets, of the breakage and the destruction in the chain, of the dialogues well felt, of the super villains a la Transformers, and Iron Man, my hero ....

853431 - LEGO Super Heroes Magnets - Batman, Robin & The JokerLEGO continues to regularly release packs of magnets, stuck on their support, and several sellers, American and German, already offer on eBay this new pack (reference 853431) containing Batman, Robin and the Joker.

The prices range from 16.95 € + 6.00 € shipping at this german seller, at 23.09 € + 22.34 € shipping at this american seller...

The minifig of Batman (sh016) that can be obtained in sets 6863 Batwing Battle Over Gotham City et 6864 Batmobile and the Two-Face Chase is on sale for just over 7.50 € on Bricklink.

Le red robin (sh011) from set 6860 The Batcave is sold at the cheapest for 7.50 € on Bricklink.

Finally, the minifig of the Joker (sh005) delivered in the set 6863 Batwing Battle Over Gotham City is also available for around € 8.00 on Bricklink.

So you have no excuse to get these magnets and give in to the different techniques that allow them to take off without damaging them too much ....

Obviously, buying on Bricklink is never easy when it comes to limiting shipping costs, but by researching carefully and consolidating your purchases, you should be able to find an acceptable compromise.

I proceeded in this way to acquire many minifigs from the Batman 2006-2008 range and I got off honorably by favoring European sellers, often more expensive than the Americans, but who apply reasonable shipping costs.
