Set instructions 4000034 The LEGO System House offered to the participants of the different sessions of the LEGO Inside Tour 2019 are now online at LEGO and we therefore discover the contents of this exclusive box: it is a reproduction of the System House, a Billund building inaugurated in 1958 and then modified in 1961 with the addition of a floor.

These premises served as a rear base for the various employees in charge of the group's international commercial activities and during the inauguration of the premises, the sales representatives from the different geographical areas were on the roof alongside the flag of the country they represented.

In the box, ten minifigs and enough to assemble the building with an interior composed of a few offices. As a bonus, a unique 3D printed part bearing the reference 6286866 which is used on the drawing board, which can be replaced by a set of more classic parts as indicated in the instructions (see below).

As usual, if you haven't taken part in the LEGO Inside Tour and you absolutely want to add this box to your collection, you will need to skip by eBay ou bricklink and prepare to shell out a few hundred dollars.

On social networks, the Chinese police announces, after an investigation launched in October 2018, that they intervened on April 23 in the premises of the company Junlong Toys which produces and distributes the LEPIN brand.

Three warehouses located in Shantou and Shenzhen were raided and more than 90 production molds, more than 200.000 packages, nearly 630.000 finished products with a market value of nearly 200.000.000 Yuan (about 27 million euros). been seized. Several suspects were arrested, including a certain Li who would be the operations manager.

Chinese police, who welcome and extol the "determination of the security organs to crack down on infringements of intellectual property rights"is not stingy in photos of what was seized at the scene of the intervention.

Simple media operation to please LEGO, which is currently making large investments in the country or a real desire to dismantle the networks of counterfeit LEGO products, the future will tell us what impact this police operation will have on the market concerned.

Below, all the photos uploaded by the Chinese police, including reproductions of very recent The LEGO Movie 2 product packaging, Captain Marvel minifigs, different types of molds and many employees who have just lost their work.

After Dijon, we now know that at least two other LEGO Certified Stores will soon open their doors in France.

The Percassi company, which manages these stores under a LEGO license, is in fact recruiting staff for these two stores.

The Toulouse store will be located in the Blagnac shopping center and the Rosny-sous-Bois store will take over the premises of the Rosny 2 shopping center.

As with the Dijon store, these spaces will have a different promotional calendar from that of the "official" LEGO Stores and the VIP card will not be accepted at the checkout. Percassi will probably launch a loyalty program specific to this network of stores.

If you want to try the adventure and become a store manager, you can apply here for the Blagnac store et there for that of Rosny-sous-Bois.

Another LEGO exhibition as there are dozens of them every year in France? Not quite.

If you want to combine your passion for LEGO and your desires for contemporary art, the international exhibition LE6BRICK which will take place from February 8 to 25 in the premises of 6b (6-10 quai de Seine - 93200 Saint-Denis) is made for you.

Many artists, all united by the plastic brick but active in very varied fields, will make you discover their very personal approach to the LEGO universe: The three photographers Aphofol, Elbreco et Stuck In Plastic, Cole blaq (MOCs), LEGO TO THE PARTY (Street Art), Rick james brick (LEGO compatible caps), Neb Lal (LEGO-based sneakers), Flesh Doll (Mosaics), Jan Vorman (the bricks in the walls, that's him) as well as the jewelry designers Miss Alma et Hint Lab.

If you like LEGOs, you probably already know some of them and you have already discovered their work through a flickr gallery or an Instagram account.

The artists present will obviously exhibit their creations but they will also give of their person with many thematic workshops which will allow you to initiate yourself to their respective disciplines. The program of planned activities is available at this address.

Everyone should find their account in this event which brings together many talents. Special mention as far as I am concerned for Hint Lab, a company founded by two French designers whose concept really appeals to me, which manufactures jewelry compatible with LEGO bricks which does not necessarily become too caricatural objects. Discover their creations on the brand's Etsy store.
