LEGO Illustrator Dan Veesenmeyer at San Diego Comic Con 2016

July 7, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO news has been fairly quiet so far for San Diego Comic Con 2016 but here’s something that might be of interest to you if you’re attending. LEGO illustrator Dan Veesenmeyer will be attending the event in a couple of weeks and can be found at Artist Alley #EE-21. If that name sounds familiar, you’ve probably seen his work in the LEGO Club Magazines, LEGO Marvel’s Avengers video game, as well as an upcoming book for kids called How to Draw LEGO Ninjago.

Dan will be selling prints and doing commissions (first come, first served) for SDCC attendee throughout the weekend. The prints will start at $10 each and are signed and numbered while inked LEGO minifigure sketches start at $40. Kids will also be able to get free head sketches during the event. So if you have some time, swing by Dan’s booth and check out what he has to offer.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2017 Mighty Micros Sets Revealed

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Mighty Micros Wolverine vs. Magneto

Just a short while ago, LEGO officially revealed the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2017 Mighty Micros sets. Like with the DC wave, there will be three sets for Marvel as well and will be displayed at San Diego Comic Con 2016 next month. As seen above, we have Wolverine vs. Magneto. Wolverine has a X-Wing Mighty Micro while the Magneto minifigure looks kind of like Onslaught with black head piece with white eyes.

Next up we also have Iron Man vs. Thanos. This is the first time we have Thanos in a traditional minifigure form, albeit a tiny version, and he comes with an Infinity Gauntlet Mighty Micro with the Infinity Gems. The Iron Man minifigure has the classic Armor Model 4 suit.

Finally we have Spider-Man vs. Scorpion. Spider-Man makes another appearance in a Mighty Micros set with a slightly different head printing and this time he has the Spider-Mobile.

LEGO Super Heroes Mighty Micros: DC Comics Superman vs. Bizarro (76068)

LEGO has announced that they will be continuing the LEGO Super Heroes Mighty Micros line in 2017 and today they have shown off a sneak peek at some of the sets that will be coming next year.

The first set, shown above, is Superman vs. Bizarro (76068). This is the first time that the Bizarro minifigure has been in a widely available set and not the San Diego Comic Con exclusive.

Next is Wonder Woman vs. Doomsday (76070) in which Wonder Woman gets an Invisible Plane Mighty Micro made up of lots of clear pieces. Also Doomsday now becomes an official minifigure although he is the chibi version.

Last up is Batman vs. Killer Moth (76069). This version of Batman is the chibi version of the Adam West classic Batman which includes the retro Batcopter.

LEGO has hashtagged their post with #SDCC so we can probably expect to see these in person at San Diego Comic Con next month.

June 28, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

San Diego Comic Con 2016 is only a short few weeks away and everyone’s been patiently waiting for LEGO do some reveals of their own. Earlier today, LEGO revealed one of the many brick-built statues that will be displayed at the convention which is LEGO Ninjago’s Jay in his new outfit from the current wave of LEGO Ninjago sets. It was stated that it took builders 345 hours to create the 64,148 piece statue.

I will be at SDCC 2016 all five days to report on anything LEGO related. There’s nothing available yet on the program schedule as it is still a little too early but stay tuned.

Rumored San Diego Comic 2016 Exclusive LEGO Minifigures

June 23, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 9 Comments

San Diego Comic Con 2016 is just around the corner and speculation has been going on about which LEGO minifigures will be given away this year. Earlier today, Sir Gareth over on Eurobricks has revealed that they are Captain America (Steve Rogers) for Marvel and the Atom for DC.

This version of Captain America is the recently controversial Hydra agent version of the character. As for the Atom, it will be from Ray Palmer from the CW’s Arrow/Flash series and the Legends of Tomorrow series. This will be the third character featured from the Arrowverse as the Green Arrow was given away back in 2013 and Arsenal from last year.

Of course, none of this is confirmed yet until they are revealed, hopefully soon, as exclusives from other companies have already been announced. Stay tuned as more details for LEGO in SDCC 2016 are released.
