NY Toy Fair 2013

Finally we get a bunch of new Lego news from the New York Toy Fair! There's a lot, so I'm not (obviously) going to put all the pictures of the sets on here but I'll put a few of my favorites (✰) on instead. So today we have Galaxy Squad, Star Wars, Games, Lord of the Rings, Castle, and The Lone Ranger (updates) (since, on this blog, I'm focusing mainly on sets with minifigures I will be not be including Hero Factory and Friends, click them for links to the pages with them). Let's start with Galaxy Squad, there was really only one whole new set shown, that was 70706 Crater Creeper, however the rest of 70708 Hive Crawler is now shown.
70706 Crater Creeper $19.99
70708 Hive Crawler $69.99 ✰
Now we have Star Wars (click for link to alternate images)! Lots of new stuff today, so let's get to it!
75015 Corporate Alliance Tank Droid $19.99
75017 Duel on Geonosis $39.99 ✰
75018 JEK-14's Stealth Starfighter $69.99
75019 AT-TE $89.99

75021 Republic Gunship $119.99
75022 Mandalorian Speeder $24.99
75023 2013 Advent Calendar $39.99
Since the Games are kind of hard to distinguish I'll have a link to all of them on Toy Ark here.
Lord of the Rings has four new sets that look quite nice:
79005 The Wizard Battle  $12.99
79006 The Council of Elrond $29.99
79007 Battle at the Black Gate $59.99
79008 Pirate Ship Ambush $99.99 ✰
We also have the the new 2013 (constantly recurring) Castle theme! Only one set here that we didn't get a very good look at from the German Toy Fair so I thought I'd post the new image of:
70400 Forest Ambush!

These sets all look really great, I'll be covering Legends of Chima tomorrow. This is the Lego Spy, out. Now here are a few of my favorites (✰):
✰ The Hive Crawler from Galaxy Squad looks great, the wheels on the bottom make the legs move in a bug-like manner and shoots the included bug larvae eggs out of the back where the crack and release the creature!

✰ Duel of Geonosis has some nice pieces, a Yoda (with new head), Count Dooku, and a brand new minifigure for Poggle the Lesser!

✰ The new Lord of the Rings Pirate Ship Ambush comes with a large, fully detailed ship, ghost minifigures, and some great sails!

✰ Colby City Duel's sheriff office is very large and well detailed, with a cannon to top it all off! It's other building, the bank, has an exploding wall and nice design!
