Reddit user, notmarctadeja, has created the first Iron Man Hall of Armor MOC that I’ve seen using the Iron Man minifigures from last year’s Marvel Super Heroes sets as well as the ones from the newly released Iron Man 3 sets. Although the Hall of Armor has to be small enough to fit the size of the minifigs, it has been very nicely done by the creator using various elements including transparent window pieces.

Last year, we reported there will be a brand new LEGO Minifigures: Character Encyclopedia being released this year but weren’t sure what the exclusive minifigure was. Today, Hong Kong LUG (HKLUG) revealed what this minifigure will be in the DK Book. As you can see in the image above, it will be a Toy Soldier in a red and blue colored uniform with a rifle and a wind-up key.
The LEGO Minifigures: Character Encyclopedia will feature all the minifigures from Series 1 through 10. The book has 208 pages and will retail for $18.99 and will be available May 1, 2013 but you can pre-order it on Amazon
In one of the images from the book, Mr. Gold from Series 10 is also featured. The description for him is as follows:
Somewhere out there is a very special Minifigure called Mr. Gold. Shiny and golden from the top of his hat to the tips of his toes, he never turns up exactly where and when you are looking for him. If you do happen to spot him, it is said that you will be lucky all day long!
Mini Facts
Likes: Being found by accident
Dislikes: Fingerprints on his spotless finish

Mr. Gold was created as an exclusive character to celebrate the 10th series of LEGO Minifigures. He is very rare and the only figure that can’t be found in every case of Minifigure bags.
Our buddies over at YourCreativeFriends have gotten their hands on the new 2013 LEGO DC Universe Man of Steel Superman minifigure and has done a review on it. We’ve already seen images of it before but this is a nice closeup look of the minifigure. The version of Superman is based on the Man of Steel movie starring Henry Cavill and is to be released on June 14th. The minifig will be in 3 sets this year: Superman Metropolis Showdown (76002), Superman: Battle of Smallville (76003), and Superman: Black Zero Escape (76009).
The newly announced LEGO Star Wars UCS Red Five X-wing Starfighter (10240) is now listed on LEGO Shop@Home.

Last year, LEGO had some deals going on for two days including a free exclusive TC-14 minifigure, free poster, and free shipping. If my prediction holds true, LEGO will most likely have a similar promotion during this time. Stay tuned for more details.

Today, The LEGO Group released their annual report for 2012 and it was another successful year for the toy company. With the launch of the 2013 Toy of the Year Friends theme combined with the continued successful themes such as City, Star Wars, and Ninjago, LEGO increased their revenue by a staggering 25% to GBP 2,549 million. This amount almost triples the sales from 5 years ago in 2007 and is the fifth year in a row that the LEGO Group had a revenue growth over 15%.
Key facts from the LEGO Group’s annual report for 2012, which was published today:
• The year’s operating profit increased to GBP 866 million against GBP 660 million in 2011, an increase of 40%.
• The operating margin increased to 34% from 30% in 2011.
• The year’s net profit increased to GBP 611 million against GBP 484 million in 2011.
• The revenue increased by 25% to GBP 2,549 million against GBP 2,181 million in 2011. In local currency (i.e. excluding the impact of foreign exchange changes) revenue increased 20% year over year.
• The net cash generated from operating activities was GBP 680 million against GBP 430 million in 2011.
• In 2012 the Group paid GBP 208 million in corporate income taxes.
The LEGO Group reporting currency is DKK. Conversion from DKK to GBP is based on an annual average currency rate (however conversion of net cash generated from operating activities is based on year-end currency rate) in 2012 and 2011 respectively.
Looking forward to 2013, … Continue
