Today we quickly go around another new polybag available since the beginning of the year: the reference 30455 Batmobile, with a vehicle inspired by the muscle car modified piloted by Batman in the film which will be released in theaters on March 2. The 68-piece bag also serves as a loss leader for the set 76181 Batmobile: The Penguin Chase (29.99 €) also available since the beginning of 2022 with a slightly larger Batmobile in the box.
We are not going to make tons of it, this micro-Batmobile is struggling a little to convince. The lines are there, but the set remains very coarse and will only bring back a few memories to all those who, like me, had Majorette or Hot Wheels toys during their childhood. If we accept that this was the goal sought by LEGO, then this bag does the job rather well.
As with other polybags, the absence of a minifig to accompany the machine to be built significantly reduces the interest of the thing. A Batman figurine would have been welcome in this one, just to give a little punch to this product which is not in principle intended to be offered at LEGO and which is only available for sale at a few retailers.
In short, the packaging is attractive, the content is a little less so and there is nothing to get up at night. The most complete collectors of the LEGO DC Comics range will not be able to ignore this new reference, the others can save their pocket money to afford the more elaborate version of the vehicle available in the set. 76181 Batmobile: The Penguin Chase.
If you want to assemble this Batmobile without going to checkout and using the parts from your bulk, know that the instructions are available for download at LEGO at this address (PDF, 1.06 MB).
This polybag is currently available for sale at JB Spielwaren (€ 3.99), at Brickshop when there is stock (3.99 €) and more expensive but in volume on Bricklink (from 4.99 €). I haven't seen it on the shelves of a French brand yet, it's up to you to tell me if you've come across it in your favorite toy store.
Note: The polybag presented here is as usual put into play. Deadline fixed at February 16 2022 next at 23pm.

We continue today with another new bag that you will have to try to find on the shelves of a toy store or at an online retailer: the LEGO Star Wars reference 30495AT-ST. This polybag of 79 pieces allows you to assemble an AT-ST in Hoth version and this unpretentious bag makes direct reference to the set 75322 Hoth AT-ST (586 pieces - 49.99 €) available since January 1st.
The AT-ST to be assembled here is obviously ultra-simplified but the result obtained is in my opinion very correct considering the subject treated and the limited inventory. The notched parts used for the legs seem to promise greater mobility than that of the large model sold for €49.99, but this is not the case. It is certainly possible to loosely orient the two legs of the machine, but it is almost impossible to find a position that allows it to stand up. Small significant refinement: the cabin rotates 360 °, it is also rather well dressed for a version on this scale.
Even if this AT-ST is not a very exciting model, it remains in my opinion still more pleasing to the eye than those already marketed in bags by LEGO, I am thinking in particular of the two versions delivered with the official LEGO Star magazine Wars, with a classic AT-ST in 2018 then a AT-ST Raider in 2021, or polybag 30054AT-ST of 2011.
Too bad LEGO does not deign to add a minifig in the bag, just to really promote the Hoth theme in the spotlight at the start of the year in the LEGO Star Wars range. The presence of a rebel soldier or an imperial pilot would inevitably change the perception of the product with all those who hesitate to spend their money on these uninteresting mini-models which generally end up at the bottom of a drawer after assembly. As it is, this sachet only deserved to be offered for example for the combined purchase of the three references on the same theme launched in January: 40557 Defense of Hoth, 75320 Snowtrooper Battle Pack,and 75322 Hoth AT-ST.
To try to end on a positive note, this AT-ST can possibly be used in a diorama that implements a forced perspective effect. It is all I have.
Note: The polybag presented here is as usual put into play. Deadline fixed at February 14 2022 next at 23pm.

Today we take a quick tour of the LEGO Marvel polybag 30443 Spider-Man Bridge Battle, a small bag of 45 pieces that allows you to assemble a Mysterio drone and obtain a Spider-Man minifigure along the way. Don't be swayed by the listing No way home on the bag, LEGO specifies elsewhere on the packaging that this product is in fact inspired by the film Spider-Man: Far From Home.
Nothing exclusive in this polybag, the figurine in "Upgraded Suit" is the one also currently delivered in the set 76184 Spider-Man vs. Mysterio's Drone Attack (19.99 €). The character's head is also used on the figure in the set 76185 Spider-Man at the Sanctum Workshop and Zombie Hunter Spidey from the Marvel Studios Collectible Character Series (ref. Lego 71031).
The drone to be assembled is ultimately only a variant of the one seen last year in two copies in the set 76174 Spider-Man's Monster Truck vs. Mysterio : the machine is here equipped with the new Stud Shooters more angular which in my opinion contribute here to give a more "techno" aesthetic to the drone and the round at the back of the hull is replaced by a square piece. Those who would like to avoid spending twenty euros on a set stamped 4+ to obtain this minifig of Spider-Man therefore have the possibility of doing so.
The bag does not escape a mini-sheet of stickers with three stickers to apply, two on the hull of the drone and one for the panel bearing the inscription "Tower Bridge". The small leaflet comes packaged in a cardboard insert, so it will always arrive undamaged. LEGO also provides two Power Blasts whites in the bag, it's always taken.
The real question around this product: how to get this polybag without going through the secondary market and delighting sellers who don't hesitate to remind you that they have access to this product and you don't? This sachet is not in principle intended to be offered on the official store and it is available for resellers who wish to sell it individually or to associate it with one of their promotional offers.
This polybag is currently available in Canada at Toys R Us (4.94 CAD), in Luxembourg at LToys (5.99 €) who sells them on Bricklink or in Germany at JB Spielwaren (3.99 €) when they have stock. I haven't seen it on the shelves of a French brand yet, it's up to you to tell me if you've come across it in your favorite toy store.
Note: The polybag presented here is as usual put into play. Deadline fixed at February 9 2022 next at 23pm.

Another promotional product currently offered at LEGO: the polybag 30562 Monkie Kid's Underwater Journey, a bag of 57 pieces which is currently automatically added to the basket from 40 € of purchase in products in the Monkie Kid and/or Ninjago ranges.
The bag is rather provided with a real staging and many accessories. LEGO also demonstrates here its ability to offer more successful promotional polybags than others when efforts are required. We already knew that the Monkie Kid universe was the object of all attention with often very successful sets and this promotional bag is no exception to the rule with a minifig, two skeletons and many elements that really help to give overall thickness.
The Monkie Kid minifig is obviously not new, it is partly the one already delivered since the beginning of January in the sets 80031 Mei's Dragon Car (39.99 €) and 80033 Evil Macaque's Mech (59.99 €) for the torso, legs and hair with the character's head supplied in several sets in 2020 and 2021.
We also obtain here three specimens of the coral Dark Turquoise which was the heyday of the Friends range in 2019/2020 and which was also present in certain LEGO CITY sets in the universe Ocean Exploration in 2020. Four golden bars, a chest and two crabs complete the underwater scene. Everything is installed on a small support that allows you to present the Monkie Kid's stick on its base.
This polybag probably does not revolutionize the idea of the small LEGO promotional product offered on condition of purchase, but it has solid arguments to put forward to possibly justify a purchase in the Monkie Kid or Ninjago ranges. The content of the bag is coherent, it tells something and it may simply be missing a small transparent display for the Monkie Kid to be presented in suspension with its thruster. The one visible in the photo above is not in the bag, I added it for the example. You have until January 27, 2022 to decide if this compelling polybag is worth spending €40 on the official online store.
Note: The set presented here, provided by LEGO, is as usual involved. Deadline fixed at January 24 2022 next at 23pm.

There will be at least one Spider-Man polybag in 2022 with the reference 30443 Spider-Man Bridge Battle which is a bit pretentiously presented as a derivative of the film No way home currently in theaters, the manufacturer still specifying in a small insert that it is in fact a product inspired by the film Far From Home.
The bag features the minifig of the set 76184 Spider-Man vs. Mysterio's Drone Attack and a variant of the drone already seen in the set 76174 Spider-Man's Monster Truck vs. Mysterio with two of the new Stud Shooters.
We do not yet know when, where and how or for how much this new bag will be available.
