LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 16 (71013) Box Distribution

July 17, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

As you probably saw from yesterday’s post about the LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 16 (71013) being available in stores, there are some new details about them. It seems that there are reports the street date for them is possibly tomorrow, July 18. There is also a box breakdown of the minifigure distribution from CM4Sci on Eurobricks:

5 per box

Banana Guy
Arabian Knight
Spy

4 per box

Serenader
Imp
Hiker
Rogue
Dog Show Judge
Spooky Boy

3 per box

Babysitter
Pirate
Cyborg
Ice Queen
Penguin
Kickboxer
Wildlife Photographer

If you’re searching for some of the more highly sought-after minifigures like the Babysitter, Penguin Guy, or the Wildlife Photographer, you might have a harder time finding them since they only come three in a box. However, a popular one like the Banana Guy should be plentiful. I’ll have my “feel guide” for the Series 16 Collectible Minifigures up in a day or so stay tuned if you’re waiting for it.

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 16 (71013) Already Being Sold?

July 16, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 17 Comments

It appears that the LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 16 (71013) has starting to hit some stores like Toy R Us as well as some LEGO Stores. Considering that there has been any official news or announcements on this latest wave from LEGO, it’s interesting to see them being sold so early since they were scheduled for a September release. LEGO sleuth CM4Sci has been doing some phone calling and has found out that:

They want the Disney series to come back in September so it can be sold alongside the Disney castle, so they pushed Series 16 up.

I’m not sure if this is legitimate from LEGO but remember we do have the general release of the LEGO Disney Castle (71040) on September 1 while VIPs can get it from August 17-31. If you’ve been waiting for Series 16 to come out, you may want to check around because they might be already out in the wild and you might get lucky. Let us know in the comments if you did indeed find them available for purchase in stores.

I’m not sure where the image above came from as I linked it from Eurobricks, so let me know so I can give credit.

LEGO Dimensions Green Arrow (71342) E3 Promo

Remember a few months ago, when it was revealed that the LEGO Dimensions Green Arrow (71342) polybag was given out at E3 2016? It looks like that the same polybag will be given out at San Diego Comic Con next week during the LEGO Dimensions panel on Sunday, July 24. Attendees will be given the Green Arrow polybag upon entry to the panel as a “thank you” for attending the panel. Hopefully there aren’t people that just go there to get the polybag and leave right after but I’m pretty sure there will be.

Be among the first to see a new trailer, new characters, and game features in this unparalleled mash-up game experience.

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2016 Wonder Woman

The Wall Street Journal has revealed another LEGO brick-built statue that will be displayed at San Diego Comic Con 2016 with a life-size version of Wonder Woman. The statue stands over 6’1″ and it contains 22,736 pieces and weighs 138 pounds. It took 99 hours to design and 218 hours to build it from bottom to top. It will be displayed on the outer rim of the LEGO booth (2829) where attendees are able to take pictures of it. It’s not that surprising that this character was chosen to become a statue considering that it is Wonder Woman’s 75th anniversary and DC will be celebrating it throughout the convention.

The statue will be one of many that will be displayed at the LEGO booth at SDCC which also includes LEGO Ninjago Jay. Check out the video below of a time-lapse build of the Wonder Woman statue.
