LEGO regularly adds instructions in pdf format to its database, and often this allows us to discover some new features even before they are actually marketed.

We had already obtained some information on the existence of sets 30056 Star Destroyer et 30058 STAP a few days ago.

Two new polybag sets have thus appeared in this database: the set 30057 Anakin's Pordracer and the set 30059 MTT.

To the question you will not fail to ask yourself: Where to get these very nice sets ?, I would answer you that we will have to wait and see how they will be distributed, but that inevitably we will have to buy them on Bricklink from sellers with could benefit from a promotion across the Channel or across the Atlantic ....

It is through the instructions in pdf format that LEGO regularly adds to its database that we discover two mini sets planned this year in the Super Heroes range:

the and 30161 is a rather successful mini Batmobile on this scale and the set 30160 features a Batman minifigure on a jetski. The minifig is that of the sets 6864 Batmobile and the Two-Face Chase et 6863 Batwing Battle Over Gotham City.

No information at this time on how to get these sets. We will have to wait for the announcement of a particular promotion, probably in Great Britain or the USA and then go to Bricklink to obtain them ....

The 2012 novelties of the Star Wars range appeared on the Lego shop. No surprise, the prices are those expected and it is already possible to find cheaper elsewhere without forcing yourself too much ....

On the other hand, we will note the presence of sets 9494 Anakin's Jedi Interceptor ™ et 9495 Gold Leader's Y-Wing Starfighter ™  in category Hard to find items, which clearly means that these two sets will remain an exclusive to the LEGO Shop for at least some time.

As we already know, licensed sets are generally very expensive.
And the LOTR license will be no exception to the rule if we are to believe the prices announced by the Australian online merchant. Mr TOYS...

Here is the list of sets in the LOTR range scheduled for June 2012 with their price in Australian dollars and the conversion into euros.

Obviously this is only an idea of ​​the price range of each set, LEGO's price policy varies depending on the country, VAT, etc ...

9469 Gandalf ™ arrives - 24.99 AUD / 20.00 €
9470 Shelob ™ Attacks - $39.99 / €32.00
9471 Uruk-Hai ™ Army - $69.99 / €55.00
9472 Attack On Weathertop ™ - $89.99 / €71.00
9473 The Mines Of Moria ™ - $119.00 / €94.00
9474 The Battle of Helm's Deep ™ - $219.00 / €172.00

Special mention for the set 9474 which with 9 minifigs, a horse and some walls will probably exceed 150 € with us ...

As I wrote below, LEGO does not have the license on the next movie in the Spider-Man franchise: The Amazing Spider-Man scheduled for July 2012 and will release a set based solely on the classic characters of the spider-man universe.

And it is MegaBrands which will market sets based on the film, which in the process reveal part of the scenario of the film, or in any case reproduce scenes from the latter:
91330 FX Spider-Room Stunts (Scene where Peter Parker gets stung, seen in trailer) 
91348 Sewer Lab HQ (Dr. Curt Connors / The Lizard base in the sewers)
91346 Lizard Man Showdown (Battle between Spider-Man and The Lizard on a Manhattan Bridge)
91351 Oscorp Tower FX Battle (Battle between Spider-Man and The Lizard, end of movie)

Rest assured, Brick Heroes did not become a dedicated MegaBlocks site, but I wanted to point out once again here that LEGO will NOT be releasing a set based on the movie. The Amazing Spider-Man  in 2012 and show you what the competition will offer. The trade war will rage in 2012, and LEGO will not be alone in the superhero niche.

End of the MegaBlocks parenthesis.
