July 26, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

On the last day of San Diego Comic Con 2016, there was a LEGO Dimensions roundtable session with members of the press and I was invited to attend. TT Games Game Directors James Mcloughlin and Arthur Parsons were on hand to answer questions about the LEGO Dimensions Year 2 content which has some exciting new stuff for it. We only had a limited time with each person so there wasn’t that much time to cover every single question that you guys posted but I did manage to sneak a few in. Both interviews were around 17 minutes long so if you have some time, feel free to check it out.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes SDCC 2016 Steve Rogers Captain America Minifigure Review

July 25, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

This past Friday and Sunday at San Diego Comic Con 2016, LEGO gave attendees a chance to win the exclusive LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Steve Rogers Captain America minifigure. In order to have a chance, people in the front stood in line for at least 2 1/2 hours and they tap the iPad provided to see if they won and the prize was given at the spot. The giveaways were also done on social media for those who weren’t able to attend.

Like with the DC Comics Super Heroes Atom and other previous exclusive minifigures from SDCC, Captain America comes in a clamshell case. The insert has a nice dark blue background with the SDCC 2016 logo on the bottom left alongside the Marvel logo. The back has some advertisement for the LEGO Marvel’s Avengers video game.

As for Captain America minifigure itself, this variant is based on the recently released Captain America: Steve Rogers #1. He has an all-new outfit that is still prodomiently his usual blue, red, and white. There is the star on the middle of the chest and some red and white stripes below it. He also has some belt printing that goes around the back. There Cap also has a star in the middle of the back. The legs continue with the printing of the suit as well as some boot printing on the front. The head appears to be new with him wearing his mask. There’s also some detailing on the chin area to give it some definition. Captain … Continue

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2016 Atom Minifigure Review

July 24, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

At the first day of San Diego Comic Con 2016 this past Thursday, LEGO did their first exclusive minifigure giveaway with the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Atom. The paper backing is only a single flat sheet unlike last year where you could fold it up to show a scene. In the bottom left corner, you have some printing that signifies that this particular minifigure is from SDCC 2016. There is also the Legends of Tomorrow logo next to the SDCC logo.

As for the minifigure itself, Atom is very detailed throughout. The torso of the A.T.O.M. exosuit has printing the red and blue of the suit as well as some silver. The legs continue with the same type of printing. Atom has a double-sided head with a confident expression on one side and an angry expression on the other. There is also some printing on the head for the chinstrap and blue over the eyes for the visor. Finally, he has a blue helmet to complete his look.

It is very rare that a San Diego Comic Con exclusive minifigure have accessories but Atom also includes a 4×4 plate with four studs. The plate also includes a chipset printing with Palmer Technologies in the middle.

Overall, the SDCC 2016 LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Atom is a very good looking minifigure and is highly detailed. The 4×4 plate was unexpected when it was first revealed but it is a nice addition. The only way to get this exclusive minifigure was to have atteneded San Diego … Continue

LEGO 2017 Rumored Sets and Themes (FALSE)

July 24, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 15 Comments

I’m finally done with San Diego Comic Con 2016 and I’ve had time to check my emails and I see quite a few of you have sent me some stuff regarding some rumored LEGO 2017 sets. Apparently, there are reports of an Italian catalog which shows some of the LEGO sets that might be coming out next year. Again, nothing is confirmed until LEGO officially announces them and anything can change between now and 2017 so these are strictly rumors in my book.

The new Power Rangers movie will be hitting the big screen next year and it appears that there will be sets based on it.

Furthermore, Cars 3 will be in theaters next year as well and it looks like there will be a few sets to go along with it.

Next are some sets based on the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales with sets ranging from 75990-75993. This marks the return of the POTC theme which has done fairly well in the past.

In the LEGO City theme, it looks like there’s something called LEGO Sports with a set called Football/Soccer Goalie Practice (61004).

The LEGO Collectible Minifigures will be returning again and this time, they will have purple packaging.

Finally, for The LEGO Batman Movie, it looks like we’re finally getting a bigfig version of Bane.

Update: It is confirmed that all the information above is false and none of the themes listed are true.
