Batman and Super Angry Kitty Attack (70817) Revealed at SDCC 2014

July 25, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Last week, we reported there will be a new The LEGO Movie set coming out in January 2015. Today at San Diego Comic Con 2014, LEGO officially announced the Batman and Super Angry Kitty Attack (70817). By releasing this set next year, it makes me think there will be more sets in the wave and not just having a fairly small set by itself.

Unfortunately, the box does have the LEGO watermark on it so I can’t post pictures of it. It will consist of 115 pieces and retail for $9.99. The set is pretty much what you see above on the right. You get Batman with a new clenched teeth expression and a grappling gun, a very Angry Kitty, a Skeletron, and a Micro Manager.

July 23, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

In addition to the bombshell that was reported while I was away from my computer, The Hollywood Reporter has revealed one of the new LEGO The Hobbit sets that is due out later this year, The Lonely Mountain (79018). The set consists of 866 pieces and has five minifigures: Bilbo Baggins, Balin, Dwalin, Fili, and Kili as well as Smaug the dragon. The set will retail for $129.99 and will be based on The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. Like with many sets that have been recently revealed, The Lonely Mountain will be displayed at San Diego Comic Con 2014 for attendees to get a closer look at.

First Look at LEGO Batman of Zur-En-Arrh Exclusive Minifigure for SDCC 2014

July 22, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

USA Today has revealed what the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Batman of Zur-En-Arrh exclusive minifigure will look like for San Diego Comic Con 2014. He does indeed look like the teaser image from back in May. Like last year, the minifigures will come in a plastic clamshell with a cardboard backing. There will be 1,750 of these given away this week to lucky attendees.

Zur-En-Arrh Batman Revealed as Exclusive Minifigure at SDCC 2014

July 22, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

FBTB has just dropped one of the biggest bombshells for LEGO at San Diego Comic Con 2014. Ace has revealed that LEGO will be giving away the DC Comics Zur-En-Arrh Batman as one of their exclusive minifigures. Although there are no images at this time, the outfit will probably look similar to the one picture above. Zur-En-Arrh will probably be given away either Friday or Saturday and The Collector on the day that’s left over. This will probably be one of the most sought for minifigures this year at SDCC. Check out the details of the giveaway process here.

If you’re not familiar with Batman of Zur-En-Arrh, he was first introduced by France Herron as an alien named Tlano from the planet Zur-En-Arrh. Later on in Grant Morrison’s version, he was brought back as Bruce Wayne’s backup personality in case Batman was mindwiped or driven to insanity.

Update: Back in May, LEGO released an image (see below) promoting LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. Batman is shown standing in front of different suits and also pictured was the Zur-En-Arrh outfit which could be the one that will be given out at SDCC. Thanks to Dave for the reminder.

July 22, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Complex has revealed the exclusive LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Classic TV series Batmobile that will be sold at San Diego Comic Con 2014. Since this year marks the 75th anniversary of Batman, LEGO has created this little beauty for SDCC and Batman fans will no doubt be wanting to get their hands on this little set. It has all the details of the ’66 Batmobile including the front part of the car and the tail fins as well. The only thing that missing is the Batman logo on the side of the car but we can’t expect everything little detail in this already cool little set. The Batmobile has 152 pieces and will be sold for $39.99 like the other exclusive sets. It also includes the Batman and Robin minifigures in their classic outfits as well, which unfortunately are the same ones from the Juniors sets. Thanks to Chris for the heads up.

July 22, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO has sent out a press release giving all the details on what will be going on at the LEGO booth (#2829) at San Diego Comic Con 2014 from more exclusive reveals to statues that you can take pictures with. For the first time, attendees will have access to a free build area but this year, they can take their creations home. There are also some details on which exclusive minifigures will be given out on which days. If you aren’t able to attend SDCC 2014, you will have a chance to win the minifigures by following LEGO on Twitter. Read the the full press release below my summary.

LEGO Star Wars

The celebrate 15 years of LEGO Star Wars, LEGO will be showcasing every LEGO Star Wars minifigure ever created which is over 600 in total. There will also be a remote-controlled life-size model of LEGO Chopper from Star Wars Rebels.

More Details of SDCC 2014 Exclusive LEGO Minifigure Giveaway Process

July 21, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Ace over at FBTB has now confirmed a majority of the details on how LEGO will be giving away their exclusive minifigures at San Diego Comic Con 2014. We knew of some of the details a few days ago such as the staff using an iPad for the ticketing process and attendees entering once a day.

The giveaways start at 12:30pm in the Sails Pavilion. There will be multiple iPads stations so the you can choose which one you want to test your luck on. If you are a winner, you will be going to another line to claim whatever prize that day is for. If you’re not a winner, you can try again the next day. There will be about 1,750 of each minifigure given out each day which is a lot more than last year so your chances of winning are a lot higher. Children’s badges don’t have barcodes so you will need a parent to be there with them. Both the parent and child can enter too with the parent’s badge scanned twice.

After seeing these details, I’m even more satisfied with the changes from last year. Since there are 1,750 minifigures given away each day, everyone’s chances just got higher. People (scalpers) who put it on the aftermarket probably won’t be getting much for them and they’re probably be more affordable for people who can’t attend SDCC. So I guess all the changes is almost a win-win situation for everybody.
