LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Video Game Walmart Pre-order Bonus Revealed

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Video Game Walmart Pre-order - Iron Patriot

GoNintendo has revealed that Walmart is also having a pre-order bonus for the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video game due out this October and as you can see in the image above, it will be the Iron Patriot minifigure and the Gun Mounting System (30168). There’s no pre-order information on the Walmarticon as of now though. As we reported yesterday, Gamestop will be having a Spider-Man key chain as their bonus. Everyone would be hoping that Gamestop would be the retailer to have an exclusive minifigure as the pre-order bonus but now we know that Walmart stores will be doing that.

GoNintendo also notes that Amazon will have a $10 games credit when you purchase from them.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Video Game Gamestop Pre-order Bonus Revealed

Gamestop

Gamestopicon has revealed what their pre-order bonus will be for the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video game. As you can see, it will be a Spider-Man key chain. You can already pick up the Spider-man key chain Shop@Homeicon but we’re not sure if this will be a different variant since there are no images of it as of this time. This is a little different and disappointing “bonus” since there were exclusive polybag minifigures in other LEGO video games in the past and this time, we only get an already released key chain that you can pretty much buy in stores. Amazon is also having a pre-order on the Marvel Super Heroes video game but hasn’t announced any exclusive bonuses yet. Will this news from Gamestop affect your purchasing decision on the game if you’re deciding to pre-order?

Update: Gamestop has included an image of the Spider-Man key chain and it is confirmed that it will be the same one as the one sold in LEGO stores.

If you are a Gamestop PowerUp Rewards member and you pre-order the game, you will also get a code to download exclusive content that has extra characters, vehicles, and races. Examples of the charafcters are Spider-Man Symbiote, Hawkeye, Thanos, and more. Quantities for this bonus are extremely limited.
