Le LEGO Store Calendar (US) from June 2013 is available and it gives us an interesting information: The polybag 5001623 Jor-El will therefore be an exclusive product offered through the LEGO Shop from June 1 to 25, 2013.

If we refer to the conditions mentioned on this document, the minifigure will be offered from $ 75 (55 € with us a priori ...) without condition of range.

June seems to be (logically) the month dedicated to Superman (Man of Steel) with a t-shirt, a model "Monthly Mini Build"representing Superman and an operation of which we do not yet know all the details aimed at creating a little buzz on the LEGO Shop facebook page.

Some had cried out a little too quickly fake regarding the polybag of Jor-El (Reference 5001623) seen on eBay, but LEGO has just confirmed the existence of this minifigure by uploading an official visual of this character.

No information, however, as to the mode of distribution of this polybag.

It's a safe bet that it will be available through a future promotional operation on the LEGO Shop or in stores.

Vu on eBay, this new polybag containing the minifig of Jor-El, Superman's father, in a Man of Steel version (LEGO Reference 5001623).

The minifigure is superb, no doubt about it. No information for the moment on the mode of distribution of this polybag in the LEGO network, and unless this minifig is missing from your collection to the point of not recovering, better to wait to know the extent of its availability to come rather than spending the 40 € requested by the seller ...

The marketing mechanics around The Yoda Chronicles are slowly getting started: A 3-episode mini-series soon to be broadcast on Cartoon Network, web episodes posted regularly on the official website dedicated to the LEGO Star Wars range, a set announced for the second half of 2013 (75018 Jek-14's Stealth Starfighter), a book dedicated to the mini-saga accompanied by an exclusive minifigure planned for summer 2013 (see this article) and now a mini-event organized by Toys R Us in the USA during which it will be possible to build a mini version of the Jek-14's Stealth Starfighter in store.

This is not a polybag, but an event that will take place in stores on May 4 and which will allow customers to assemble this apparently very successful mini-ship on site and leave with it.

No information for the moment on the possibility of participating in the event in the brand's stores in France. Instructions for reproducing this mini-ship will likely be available soon.

The info was communicated by starstreak007 which offers a photo of the panel announcing the operation on his flickr gallery.

The polybag of the May 4th promotion (May the fourth ...) is already on sale on Bricklink ...

For a little over 13 € (not counting the shipping costs), you can get this Han Solo minifigure before everyone else in an original outfit.

You can also wait a few weeks, order from the LEGO Shop on May 4th a LEGO Star Wars set, the 10240 Red Five X-Wing Starfighter  for example, and get this sachet for free. Up to you...

I specify that seller, located in the Czech Republic, is serious and reliable: I have had the opportunity to order from him on several occasions and have never been disappointed.
