As expected, the retail price of these sets is high. These prices are obviously provided for information only and it will be possible as usual to get these sets at much more attractive prices.
The line of Hasbro toys from The Avengers license creates further confusion and provides some explanations for certain LEGO products like the set 4529 Iron Man from the Ultrabuild range. Indeed, we discover that Hasbro offers a model called Stark Tek Assault Armor Series which looks strangely like the 4529 minifigure, except that the Iron Man armor is in Mark VI version at Hasbro and in Mark VII version at LEGO. It looks like Iron Man changes his costume a lot in the movie ....
By the way, this same line of toys based on the film reveals the hypothetical presence of Red Skull as I was already telling you about it a few weeks ago. We indeed find this pack The Avengers Mini Mighty Mugs Collector with Captain America and Red Skull. The presence of Red Skull in this line of toys could of course be based solely on the movie Captain America.
We also discover a hasbro pack including two motorcycles: Iron Assault Bike (Iron Man) and Furyfire Assault Cycle (Captain America). I'll let you draw your conclusions on the possible LEGO adaptation of these machines, especially in the set 6865 Captain America's Avenging Cycle. Many other gear are offered by Hasbro such as the Firestrike Assault Jet and Goliath Assault Tank...
Firestrike Assault Jet
The new MOC from erth & fiya is an all-in-one: both Cuusoo project and entry of the Batmobile 2025 competition at LUG Nuts.
If the vehicle itself is a great achievement, it is above all its carbon fiber look that impresses and raises many questions about the technique used to cover the parts with imitation carbon vinyl.
As erth & fiya confirms in comments on flickr, this beautiful machine is made from 100% LEGO parts.
Here is another video shot on the grounds of the Nuremberg Toy Fair by the guys from spieletest.at. From 1.0 minute, you will be able to see some images of the 2012 novelties and especially of some novelties scheduled for summer 2012. We briefly discover what could possibly be the roof of Jabba's palace from the set 9516 Jabba's Palace.
But we especially notice that the video does not dwell on the novelties that have not yet been officially announced and for which no official visual has been published.
As with the photos published so far and which remain taken at a certain distance, with a resolution that does not allow you to zoom in to detect certain details, I think that LEGO has visualized all these pictures and has authorized or not their publication by selected sites like Slovene kocke.si or the Austrian spielestest.at, by leaving them a certain form of exclusivity on this European show and by imposing a reduced resolution and only wide shots.
This is how LEGO is creating the buzz, without offering too much to impatient AFOLs, but enough to allow them to generate hundreds of internet threads and keep the pressure on these new things.
It's not really a detailed view of the set in question, but as Baal pointed out in the previous post, we can see a part of the Quinjet behind the two maxifigs and I zoomed in slightly on that portion of the image.
This gear, which will be available in the set 6869 Quinjet Aerial Battle including the minifigs of Black Widow, Iron Man, Thor & Loki, appears here by revealing a cockpit occupied by Black Widow, some flick-fire missiles, a piece of the fuselage and wings and probably some stickers. Difficult to deduce the general shape of the vessel, but what we see seems interesting.
