It is at the turn of a topic on Brickpirate that I put my hand on a MOC posted in October by Icare.
This is a Ent, from Old English which means Giant, a forest spirit with the appearance of a tree. The best known of them in the LOTR universe is without a doubt Treebeard (Fangorn).
Icare carried out this MOC in January 2011 as part of a competition on Classic Castle. However, he never really finished it on the legs. And finally it's just as well like that ...
The realization is of quality: The face is well rendered, the foliage bushy and well dispersed and when one observes this MOC with a little distance, the illusion is perfect, Treebeard takes shape before our eyes.
So take some of your time, since nothing concrete is announced on the front of the license The Hobbit at LEGO, and go to the topic dedicated to this MOC on Brickpirate or the MOCpages of Icarus.
The debate arises periodically: must the X-Wing LEGO version be white or gray to be as faithful as possible to the model seen in the films of the saga?
Some defend the idea that the machine is white but aged, worn and soiled by its hours of flight and therefore displays a grayish color. Others claim that the craft has an original gray cabin.
Everyone will have their opinion on the subject and the debate will continue next year with the release of the set. 9493 X-Wing Starfighter in white as was the case for the sets 4502 X-Wing Fighter and in 2004 6212 X-Wing Fighter in 2006.
The gray version was released in 1999 with the set 7140 X-Wing Fighter which was then reissued in the set 7142 X-Wing Fighter in 2002.
Anyway, here is a 3D rendering proposed by BrickBoys under ldraw X-Wing of the set 9493 X-Wing Starfighter in gray to give you an idea of the appearance of this vessel in this color.
The file ldraw is also available for download for those interested: x-wing_attack_mode.ldr.
The court decision has fallen: Ice-Watch, a Belgian brand of trendy watches, will have to change the packaging of its products in Belgium.
The court ruled in favor of LEGO, which defended the idea that the craze aroused by Belgian watches is partly due to their packaging, which strongly resembles a block of LEGO.
I am not going to say the opposite, it would be necessary to be in bad faith ....
Ice-Watch is also subject to a fine of € 10.000 per day in the event of the sale of watches in this deceptive packaging from the service of the judgment. (thanks to antp on HFR)
All collectors of LEGO Star Wars sets will tell you, we are close to overdosing with all the droids that LEGO provides us and comes in all the sauces: Battle Droid Pilot, Battle Droid Security, Battle Droid Commander, Rocket Battle Droid, and obviously Battle Droid at all...
For this 11th box of the Advent Calendar, LEGO brings us the Battle Droid Pilot from the set 7929 The Battle of Naboo released in 2011 (19 € at Amazon) and which for the price allows you to get 8 Battle droids, 2 Battle Droids Pilots And two Gungans including Jar Jar Binks.
I'm disappointed, LEGO could have at least winked at collectors with a red-clad Battle Christmas Droid ...
You know my aversion to bad reviews, I don't hide it. What I expect from a review is not so much the often subjective opinion of the person who makes this presentation of a set from all angles or a string of notes each more stupid than the other, that a presentation in order of the contents of this set.
Finally, I tell myself that I prefer more and more the reviews of a new style that abound on Youtube: The reviews in pictures, without comments or unnecessary blah on the second page of the instruction booklet or on the beauty Le Corbusienne of the edge of the box.
artist, best known for its successful MOCs but sold at a high price, offers us here two excellent quality video reviews of the sets 6863 Batwing Battle Over Gotham City et 6858 Catwoman Catcycle City Chase.
The background music is annoying, but you can mute the sound and enjoy these superb photos expertly put on video so as not to miss any of the new releases to come and get an idea of the content of these sets which promise to be simply exceptional.
