LEGO Overwatch Tracer Minifigure Revealed

LEGO Overwatch Tracer

Today must be a LEGO Overwatch kind of day because a short while after I reported on the Winston teaser, the Overwatch social media channels revealed a physical item from the upcoming sets. In the video, Papa Jeff Kaplan is shown building the Tracer minifigure which then comes alive as a stop-motion with Tracer’s voiceover. This is the first time we’ve seen an actual item from the set and Tracer joins a number of characters that are already confirmed to be in the sets including Widowmaker, Reinhardt, Genji, Soldier 76, Mercy, McCree, and Winston. There are reports that there are at least six set (75970-75975) that are coming early next year.

As I mentioned before, we probably won’t be seeing anything coming out of New York Comic Con this week but we’ll most likely see more at Blizzcon in November. Which other characters do you want to see that haven’t been announced yet?

LEGO Overwatch Winston Teaser

LEGO Overwatch Winston

It’s been a while since we talked about LEGO Overwatch but the minisite has been recently updated with a new splash image. This time it shows some bananas and peanut butter with the phrase “Imagination is the essence of discovery” and this means that our beloved Winston will be joining the LEGO Overwatch lineup. This is now the seventh confirmed character for the theme as he joins Widowmaker, Reinhardt, Genji, Soldier 76, Mercy, and McCree who were teased last month at Gamescom 2018. For his figure, I’m guessing LEGO will be using the same gorilla mold that they’ve been using the past few years but I’m interested to see how they will attach his jump pack.

New York Comic Con is this week however LEGO themselves won’t be attending as they’re not listed as one of the exhibitors at the event so we probably won’t see anything coming out of there. The best bet will be at Blizzcon 2018 in November.

Overwatch Sanctuary Map Built with LEGO at Overwatch Fan Festival

As we still patiently wait for the reveal of the LEGO Overwatch sets, one of the big news from the Overwatch Fan Festival a few days ago was D.Va animated short, Shooting Star, but along side that was the reveal of a new Control map, Busan. The only LEGO related thing that has come out from the Overwatch Fan Festival is Sanctuary made out of LEGO bricks. It looks like Blizzard hired someone to create the map but it doesn’t seem like it’ll be part of the initial wave of sets coming out in January.

If we were going to see the LEGO Overwatch sets, it’ll probably be either at PAX West next week or during Blizzcon in November. The thing about Blizzcon is that Blizzard will be doing announcements weeks before the event so they could be revealed even before Blizzcon starts.

LEGO Overwatch Gamescom 2018 Teaser

LEGO Overwatch

LEGO has revealed the first teaser for the LEGO Overwatch theme which will be announced at Gamescom 2018. The teaser some of heroes that we can expect as minifigures including Widowmaker, Reinhardt, Genji, Soldier 76, Mercy, and McCree. In addition, some of the stages shown are Watchpoint Gibraltar, Hanamura, and Dorado so we can probably expect those as the buildable sets. Stay tuned as we’ll most likely be seeing something tomorrow.

LEGO at Overwatch Fan Festival Next Week

LEGO Overwatch

The last update I did about the LEGO Overwatch theme was that LEGO has launched a minisite for the theme but it looks like we may see something physical as soon as next week. The Overwatch Fan Festival is held in Seoul, South Korea from August 22-23 and LEGO will be on hand at the event. Considering that this is a pretty big event and we know that LEGO Overwatch sets are coming, it wouldn’t be too surprising if LEGO will be announcing something or giving a sneak peek there. Stay tuned as I’ll report anything of interest from the Overwatch Fan Festival starting on Wednesday.

LEGO Overwatch Minisite Launched

LEGO Overwatch

Back in May, Activision Blizzard shocked the community and announced that they will be teaming up with LEGO to produce some LEGO Overwatch sets. Other than that announcement, there hasn’t been any news about it until today. LEGO has already set up a minisite for the theme with the caption, “Let’s get this moving! LEGO Overwatch – Coming Soon”

If you’re familiar with Overwatch, you would know that quote is from Tracer when pushing the payload. The background also shows a faded image of a setting. It’s hard to tell what it is but to me it looks like the Numbani stage. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

There’s still no word on when LEGO Overwatch will be coming out but it looks like it’ll be sometime in 2019 because of the copyright at the bottom of the image. Whenever it is, I’m extremely looking forward to seeing and building the sets.
