Just like that and then 2016 Nuremberg Toy Fair has started and there are now some images of the summer wave of LEGO sets. The guys over at PromoBricks and Zusammengebaut are there and they have provided the images for the world to see. There will also be videos as well from both sites later as well as more higher quality images when they are settled in after each day. Again, I’ll keep this post updated as more images are shared. Also if you haven’t checked it out yet, I’ve compiled a list of some of the sets we should be seeing in summer 2016. Images continued after the break. Update: Head over to Zusammengebaut’s ticker to keep up with the updates. I’ll try to find more sources of images. Update 2: There are lots of new images over on PromoBricks’ Facebook Page. Special thanks to Michael for his hard work. Update 3: Zusammengebaut has started uploaded their videos on their YouTube channel. Update 4: It’s day 2 at the toy fair and PromoBricks has continued with their uploads for Mixels, BIONICLE, Ninjago, TECHNIC, Friends, and Disney Princess.
Update 5: FamilyGamerTV has also started sharing some videos from their perspectives. Update 6: An image for the Disney Collectible Minifigures box is now available.

New inventories and partsPosted by Huw, 02 Mar 2017 11:20 LEGO has just published instructions and inventories for the March releases on its customer services portal.
Although I have not checked them all, the inventories appear to be complete and include a couple of interesting new parts which I examine after the break. Review: 75879 Scuderia Ferrari SF16-HPosted by CapnRex101, 01 Mar 2017 16:35View image at flickr Formula One racing cars have been the subject of LEGO products since the 1970s and their design has evolved according to the changing selection of pieces available. 75879 Scuderia Ferrari SF16-H represents the latest model in the series and has been released alongside 75833 Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula One Team. All three vehicles are based on the cars designed for the 2016 season and this Ferrari is accordingly distinct from that found in 75913 F14 T & Scuderia Ferrari Truck. The model is decorated with almost thirty stickers which are laden with advertising and the bodywork is accurately represented using a selection of curved slopes and tiles. In fact, I think this might be the best Formula One car released to date! BrickHeadz available nowPosted by TheBrickPal, 01 Mar 2017 14:00Iron Man

Perhaps the most interesting are four plush minifigures: Batman, Batgirl, Kai and Nya.
They are pretty expensive (£20.00/$24.99), I have to admit, but at 12"/30cm tall they are probably pretty cool!.
