Rumor of the day: LEGO TMNT ...

TMNT for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, obviously.

The current rumor concerns the possibility of a TMNT theme at LEGO. It all starts with a guy (you know the guy who knows a guy who knows ...) on LUGSing (LEGO User Group Singapore) who got the info from a LEGO store employee about the upcoming release (?) of TMNT keyring. 

Several sites are already extrapolating the future release of a range based on the adventures of pizza-eating turtles.

To be credited with this rumor, the fact that a film produced by Michael Bay is scheduled for May 2014 (and not at the end of 2013 as we have read here and there, and this because of budget and scenario problems a bit weak to rewrite), and that the American children's channel Nickelodeon is launching a new animated series on September 29 (see the press release). Note that LEGO has already worked with Nickelodeon in the past on the SpongeBob SquarePants theme (square ...).

But all this is only a rumor relayed by several blogs (Brickultra, Smashing Bricks, Groove Bricks, etc ...) without any real basis and impossible to verify. To be continued, therefore, without getting carried away ...
