80107 Chinese New Year Spring Lantern Festival

The two sets offered by LEGO for the Chinese New Year 2021 are now online on the official store. We therefore discover the public prices that will be charged in France, Belgium and Switzerland for these two boxes, the inventory of which consists of many unpublished pieces so far in specific colors so far already makes some fans salivate.

Once again, all the hazy theories concerning the difficulty for LEGO to offer new parts or existing parts in new colors are undermined by these boxes which prove that the manufacturer knows how to put the package on certain ranges when he decides, in any case more than on others.

Note that the set 80106 Story of Nian is displayed at 79.99 € in Belgium and the set 80107 Spring Lantern Festival It is announced for its part at 109.99 €.

These two boxes are announced for January 10, 2021 and with a little luck I would have told you about these nice sets by then on the occasion of "Review ".

Official LEGO Star Wars Magazine - November 2019

The latest issue of the official LEGO Star Wars magazine is currently very coveted because it allows to obtain a minifigure that is ultimately not so easy to obtain: This month, the publisher Blue Ocean allows us for 5.99 € d '' add a minifigure of Luke Skywalker in Bespin outfit to our collections without having to invest in the set 75222 Betrayal at Cloud City marketed in 2018 at the public price of 349.99 € and already withdrawn from the LEGO catalog or in the set 75294 Bespin Duel, a reference initially planned for Comic Con in San Diego and sold only at LEGO in the USA following the cancellation of the convention.

The minifigure is original enough to justify trying to find a copy of this issue of the magazine at your newsagents, but many outlets are obviously already out of stock. Same observation at journals.fr where availability will only have been effective for a few minutes.

Luke "Bespin" Skywalker

Do not take into account the two facial expressions presented on the bag, the head provided is the one also delivered in the sets 75222 Betrayal at Cloud City et 75294 Bespin Duel. In the pages of the magazine, we learn that the next issue scheduled for December 9 will allow us to obtain a 33-piece micro version of Obi-Wan Kenobi's Jedi Interceptor. It's less sexy than the minifigure provided this month, but it's new.

I went to my tobacconist this morning and took everything he had on the shelf, four copies of the current issue. I keep one for myself and I put the other three into play, all you have to do is post a comment on the article before November 20 at 23:59 p.m. to participate in the draw. I tried to contact the publisher for a few more copies, but got no response.

Update : The winners of the three copies put into play:

LEGO 10276 Colosseum

This is the Italian version of the official online store which sticks to it and it is logical: the manufacturer communicates a date for the announcement of the largest set ever marketed by LEGO with more than 9000 pieces, the reference 10276 Colosseum.

No visual from the product itself on this teaser, but I think almost everyone has already seen the photos of the box which are actively circulating on the usual channels.

See you on Friday at 15:00 p.m. for the official announcement of this very large box which should be available for Black Friday 2020.
