LEGO San Diego Comic Con 2013 Day 2 Recap

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes SDCC 2013 Exclusive Spider-Man Minifigure

On the second day of the 2013 San Diego Comic Con, it went mostly well at the LEGO booth. The main concern was how the LEGO staff was planning to control the overcrowding issue for the exclusive minifigure giveaway that was stopped abruptly yesterday. The management team figured out one way to deal with the issue was to hold the raffle outside in the West Terrace of the Convention Center. From what it looked like, it was a pretty successful raffle. The only thing that was bad about it was that it was outside and the sun was beaming down on our heads. The line moved pretty quickly and there were two staff members handing out the raffle tickets. After that, you just have to wait until 3:30pm for the LEGO booth to announce the winners. There was also a bonus drawing for the rest of yesterday’s Spider-Woman minifigure. When the winners were announced, I tweeted that I was one of the winners of exclusive The Amazing Spider-Man minifigure! After I calmly picked up my prize, I posted an image on my Instagram account to prove that I was actually a winner. Above is the picture I took after I got back home. In other giveaway news, there another minifigure that was given out to Comic Con attendees. FBTB reported that an Azog minifig was given out somewhere that was not the LEGO booth. We’re still not sure where or how to get Azog as of this time.

Today, LEGO also revealed the new LEGO … Continue

LEGO San Diego Comic Con 2013 Day 1 Recap

LEGO Sign

Day 1 at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con is finally over and I haven’t been this tired in a very long time. Let me do a recap on all things LEGO related today at the Con. The biggest news there was probably the failure of the exclusive Spider-Woman minifigure giveaway. As you may have seen in my earlier post, the LEGO floor staff had to shut down the whole thing 15-20 minutes into the giveaway due to overcrowding. If you’ve been to SDCC before, once there’s any sort of overcrowding, they would be forced to shut down things like this. As a result, there are still some left over raffle tickets left over for Spider-Woman and will be given out tomorrow morning at 11:30 but this time it’s at the West Terrace. At that time, LEGO will also be giving out tickets for the Amazing Spider-Man minifigure as well. At 3:30pm, check if you have a winning ticket on LEGOraffle.com and if you do, head back to the LEGO booth to pick up your precious.

Another thing that I noticed that was a little out of control was the line for the LEGO The Hobbit Micro Scale Bag End and the LEGO Star Wars JEK-14 Mini Stealth Starfighter exclusive sets. People were lining up for the minifigure giveaway when the line was for tickets to get the two sets. This confusion led to a line that snaked a couple of times around the whole booth. There were only a limited amount of each set … Continue

LEGO San Diego Comic Con 2013 Half Day Report

Day 1 so far at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con has been a doozy. The day started off hectic right as we got to enter the exhibit hall. Right when we got in, there was a line to purchase the exclusive The Hobbit Micro Bag End and the Star Wars Mini JEK-14 Star Stealth Starfighter. There were only a limited amount of sets being sold each day and I was fortunate to be able to get the last sets available. The line wrapped around the booth twice and if you weren’t one of the first people in line for the exclusives, you were out of luck. The LEGO CUUSOO Back to the Future DeLorean Time Machine was also available for purchase.

Now to what went bad today at the booth. If you follow my Twitter, you probably saw my update that the staff people stopped the giveaway for the exclusive Spider-Woman minifigure. The crowds so out of control that they had to stop the whole thing altogether. This was very bad planning on the floor staff. There was absolutely no control of the crowd as people were just randomly lining up early and causing congestion. One of the staff members told me that they would have to rethink their strategy for tomorrow’s giveaway.

Update: There will now be two minifigures given away at 11:30am. Let’s see what the LEGO staff has in mind tomorrow or else we’ll have the same exact issue as today.

Not all things went bad at the LEGO booth though. … Continue

LEGO Super Heroes DC Universe – Batman: The Riddler Chase Revealed

LEGO Super Heroes DC Universe - Batman: The Riddler Chase

USA Today has revealed the set that a new LEGO Super Heroes DC Universe set will be unveiled at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con, the Batman: The Riddler Chase. The set will contain 304 pieces and retail for $29.99 and is slated for a January 2014 release. It will feature three minifigures: Batman, the Riddler, and the long awaited Flash minifigure. The vehicles that are in the set are a Batmobile and a green drag racer for the Riddler. LEGO fans will be happy to see that the Flash minifigure will make his first appearance in a Super Heroes set and are that much closer to completing the Justice League.

Update: Some eagle eyes on Brickset and Eurobricks noticed that the Bat symbol on the Batmobile looks a lot like Batgirl’s symbol. Also, if you look closely at the minifigure sitting in the vehicle, it has a lot of yellow which looks similar to Batgirl’s cape. We will soon know what minifigure is in the Batmobile in the next few days.

As the 2013 San Diego Comic Con rolls closer, Marvel is slowly releasing more LEGO variant covers for their upcoming comics.

Here you can see the covers for Wolverine & the X-Men #26, Daredevil #31, and Nova #8. Back in June, we got our first look at the variant covers for X-Men #5, Indestructible Hulk #14, and Hawkeye #15.
