The next playable character to be revealed for LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham is the Prime Earth version of Vibe, Cisco Ramon. He is one of the youngest members of the Justice League of America and has vibrational powers which he acquired when his DNA was rewritten by inter-dimensional forces during Darkseid’s invasion of Earth.
Target stores are in the process of setting up their Christmas section and every year they have different LEGO polybags for stocking stuffers. For this year, one of these polybags is the LEGO Legends of Chima Frax’s Phoenix Flyer (30264).
This polybag was offered as freebies over in the UK and in Europe earlier this year but now we have a chance to purchase it here in the US. There’s no word on pricing at this time but I’ll update this post when I have details. Frax’s Phoenix Flyer (30264) will go for $3.99 each.
Thanks for Chris from Bricks on the Dollar and his follower Mike for the heads up.

The latest playable character revealed for LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham is courtesy of Gamestop is Hush. His real name is Thomas Elliot and was Bruce Wayne’s best friend during their childhood. Later on, he became one of Batman’s greatest enemies. He wants to take revenge by ruining Bruce’s life. Hush’s signature weapons are his dual handguns. There’s just six more days until LEGO Batman 3 is released here in the US!
There are some new details regarding the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Guardians of the Galaxy Rocket Raccoon (5002145) polybag via Mr. Elijah Timms on Eurobricks. The polybag is a Toys R Us exclusive and he mentions that they won’t be available until November 16th and will be sold for $4.99 each. Before it was speculated that it would go with the Guardians of the Galaxy Blu-Ray.
Most likely the shipping box that it came in probably said “Hold until November 16” with the value being at $4.99 each and the employees didn’t know what promo it was with. I’ll try to get more details later this week to see if the Rocket Raccoon will be sold as a stand-alone polybag or packaged with a future promotion.
Update: Jason from The Brick Show has confirmed that the Rocket Raccoon will be a stand-alone polybag at $4.99 each but they won’t be available for purchase until the “strict” 11/16 street date. Below is a picture of the bin they were in while the LEGO rep was putting them out.
