New LEGO 2020: Two new Accessory Packs scheduled for March 1, 2020

Among the novelties expected for March XNUMX, we already know that it will be possible to afford the LEGO Marvel sets 76163 Venom Crawler (413 pieces - 29.99 €) and 76162 Black Widow's Helicopter Chase (271 pieces - 29.99 €) which we are currently talking about on Brick Heroes, but two new small packs of themed accessories which will be sold 12.99 € each are also already online.

These sets repeat the principle of those already marketed, with a plastic bubble in the shape of a minifig which serves as a container, like the references 40343 Spider-Man and the Museum Break-In et 40345 Mars Exploration Minifigure Pack always available.

For what it's worth, I think LEGO could try to limit the use of plastic for packaging, especially for a company that never shies away from reminding us of its green and eco-friendly ambitions.

40373 Fairground Accessory Set

The reference 40373 Fairground Accessory Set will allow us to obtain four minifigs that will accompany a small attraction to build. The young girl will be exclusive to this box with her unique face and her t-shirt with a unicorn. To buy to eventually expand a funfair diorama.

The Ninjago reference 40374 Golden Zane Accessory Set will allow its side to obtain a Golden zane new and exclusive to this set, a Nindroid and two Overlord Warriors, all accompanied by a micro-crawler and some accessories. I await the opinion of fans of the Ninjago universe on this product and its content.

Medieval Blacksmith by Namirob

As promised, LEGO has just announced the result of the second phase of evaluation 2019 and the two selected LEGO Ideas projects are Medieval Blacksmith by Namirob and Winnie the Pooh (Winnie the Pooh) by benlouisa.

I won't hide from you that I am a little disappointed with the selection made by the members of the team in charge of the evaluation of the competing projects, but I think that some of you will not be of the same opinion with d 'on the one hand, a set that should appeal to nostalgic fans of the universe Castle and on the other, something to delight those who appreciate everything related to the world of Disney cartoons.

Project anatomy by Stephanix, who was on borrowed time up to now, is definitely rejected like the 8 other projects of this review phase.

While waiting for the official versions of these two new projects to arrive on the shelves, we still have to find out what LEGO has done with projects already validated in the past: The Pirate Bay, 123 Sesame Street et Playable LEGO Piano.

lego vip spend your points on a lottery ticket

LEGO is constantly trying to adapt its VIP program to respond to the dissatisfaction of those who were happy to settle for the "before" program. As it is no longer possible to use points directly from the basket of the official online store or in a LEGO Store without first generating a coupon via the dedicated interface, the manufacturer has recently made sure to differentiate the vouchers. valid only in physical stores and those usable online by changing the pictograms. It was about time, many people confused the two types of coupons.

And since it is above all about trying to encourage customers to use their points for something other than a reduction on the amount of their order, LEGO also offers to redeem points for wallpapers, coloring pages to download or more or less successful posters. The technique is not new, many loyalty programs use the same strings to minimize the financial impact of their starting offer on their sales.

Even stronger, LEGO is going there at the moment of a lottery with a minifig of Shazam, initially offered during the Comic Con in San Diego in 2012, to be won. To participate, you need to buy tickets which are billed to you 50 VIP points or approximately 0.34 €. You can buy up to 15 tickets for 750 points or € 5 to increase your chances of winning the minifigure in play. Everything is good to try to get members of the VIP program to spend their points other than in exchange for 'a small discount on their purchases ...

To buy tickets and participate in the raffle, it's at this address that it happens.
