LEGO first revealed the Star Wars Rancor Pit (75005) at San Diego Comic Con last summer. After building and reviewing Jabba’s Palace, the set felt incomplete without the Rancor Pit under it. Early this year, LEGO released the Pit in the first wave of 2013. The set contains 380 pieces and retails for $59.99, which comes to about $0.16/piece. The box contains one instruction booklet, four numbered bags, and two unnumbered bags.

Flickr user, motayan, is back with more images of sets that are coming out in 2013. This time, they have revealed some new polybags from The Lone Ranger theme. Here you can see the Lone Ranger’s Pump Car (30260) and Tonto’s Campfire (30261). We’re not sure yet of how they will be distributed but there are rumors that it might be in The Sun newspaper promotion over in the UK which means that they won’t be in the US for a while.

If you’ve gotten tired to seeing the teaser images on the LEGO Legends of Chima minisite, the wait is now over. The minisite is now live and it’s pretty good looking. The main thing you’ll see is Laval and Cragger in a looped animation. To the side, there’s a module of featured videos. Under that, you can play the LEGO Legends of Chima: Speedorz online game. On the bottom, you can browse and read up on the Chima sets, watch how to play the Speedorz sets, watch many Chima videos including designer videos, and read more about the world of Chima. Head over to the minisite and check out all it has to offer.
