More The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017) Rumors

October 13, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

We already know there will be a line of The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017) which will have 20 minifigures in the wave but there’s some new information coming out of Eurobricks for them. Delta Customs has stated there will be 7 different Batsuits, 10 villains, and 3 neutral characters.

If you watched the SDCC trailer, there were a lot of Batsuits that were shown in less than 10 seconds so any of them could be one of the minifigures in the set and maybe even some that weren’t even shown in the trailer. As for the villains, we’ve already seen plenty of them in the sets that have been revealed so far but director Chris McKay has stated that the Rogues Gallery will be filled out in LEGO so there’s plenty of villains to choose from. As for the neutral characters, that could be just anyone’s guess.

The LEGO Batman Movie Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522) Polybag Found

**Image has been removed by LEGO’s request.**

It looks like the news today will be geared more for The LEGO Batman Movie. First up is a new polybag found by the folks over at PromoBricks called Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522). The polybag features a standard Batman minifigure with the new utility belt piece along with some sort of device.

If you’re not familiar with the Phantom Zone, it is a realm in the DC Universe used to imprison criminals. This makes the Batman in the Phantom Zone polybag much more interesting and makes you curious of how the Phantom Zone figures into the movie.

This polybag was found on eBay so there’s no information on where or when it will be distributed. I’m hoping that it’ll be a GWP at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home.

LEGO has officially announced the newest LEGO ideas set with the The Beatles Yellow Submarine (21306) which is based on the 1968 animated film. The 550 piece set will retail for $59.99/£49.99/€59.99 and will be available on November 1. The set will have minifigures of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr as well as Jeremy. I’m sure a lot of AFOLs will appreciate the set as The Beatles are one of the most popular bands in music history. Check out the official description of the Yellow Submarine (21306) below.

Take a surreal trip under the seas in the LEGO® version of the Yellow Submarine from the iconic 1968 animated musical fantasy film inspired by The Beatles. Ideal for display or role-play fun, the Yellow Submarine features loads of cool, authentic details including a cockpit for the included minifigures of John, Paul, George and Ringo.

Kevin Szeto’s motivation for creating the Yellow Submarine

“As an amateur musician and songwriter, I have always been drawn to the music of The Beatles. The creation of the Yellow Submarine model was really my way of showing my affection for The Beatles, as well as trying to pay a small tribute to The Beatles phenomenon. The Yellow Submarine is bright, fun, and colourful, which also made it a good subject to translate into LEGO form”, Kevin said as he shared his motivations for building the Yellow Submarine.

Justin Ramsden’s (LEGO designer) motivations were also very much centred around his love for the iconic band, as he was given

David Pagano from Paganomation and David Pickett from Brick 101 will be releasing a new book from No Starch Press called The LEGO Animation Book: Make Your Own LEGO Movies! This book will give you an introduction on how to bring your builds to life with stop-motion animation.

The book will elaborate more with their own dedicated chapters as you go.

The next chapter solely talks about how to animate a LEGO minifigure.

The rest of the chapters go into more depth on various subject matters like creating your set, the ideal equipment to use for LEGO stop-motion videos, how to convey your … Continue
