The humble Lego minifig has just turned thirty and it seems appropriate to do something to celebrate his/her birthday. So, without further ado, here are two scenes by Thom, a Lego fanatic that resides in London and apparently has a penchant for non-alcoholic beverages and minifig scenes.
Title picture: the minifig is doing what you think it is doing, streaking, with the local constabulary hot on his heals.

Those of you who’ve seen The Dark Knight probably still have Batman in your systems, so hopefully news on the superhero in LEGO form is enough to sate your batty cravings. Warner Bros. is certainly trying to indulge in your wants by revealing more news about the upcoming LEGO Batman video game.
Today, the company brings word of a new villain, one that Batman fans will be familiar with — Man-Bat. Man-Bat is actually a scientist named Kirk Langstrom, who injected himself with a bat-based serum in order to gain sonar powers and aid his worsening deafness. Obviously, bad results ensue, and he turns into a bat-looking monster that attacks Gotham City. Fun!

Fans of the Lego Technic line will definitely find this new two-seat off-roader to be a worthwhile pursuit, since it is powered by realistic-looking a V8 engine (scaled down, of course). Perfect for kids who are looking forward to grow up and being a mechanical engineer of sorts. Features include an integrated motorized Power Functions to raise and lower its ground clearance, operate the front-mounted winch or turn on the LED headlights. In addition, you will also get the benefit of stylish hydraulic gull-wing doors, opening trunk and hatch, motorized suspension to raise and lower the truck and a working steering system. Watch out for the Lego Technic Off Roader from next month onwards for approximately £90.
