San Diego Comic Con 2020 Officially Cancelled

April 18, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

You may have seen the big pop culture announcement yesterday but in case you didn’t, it was announced that San Diego Comic Con 2020 has been officially cancelled. It’s not too surprising as businesses still aren’t ready to be opened and probably won’t be for some time due to the COVID-19 situation.

As for the LEGO exclusives that were planned for the event, nobody knows what will happen to them since everyone had to switch strategies. It is possible that LEGO puts them on the Reward Center as a raffle but that would be somewhat unfair for the attendees who were supposed to be there as it was an exclusive thing to them. Either way, we’ll see what LEGO does with the products they had planned for SDCC, if anything.

The last few weeks have been an unprecedented time. Since it is becoming apparent that COVID-19 restrictions will not be a short-term matter, we have made the sad decision to cancel Comic-Con for the first time in its 50-year history.

LEGO is looking for members from the AFOL community to join in a beta tester group for a new project they are working on over at Tongal. There’s no details of what this project is about and an NDA is required. The best test starts today and will run until June 19.

Beta testing can be done remotely from your home and will run over an 8-week period, from April 15th to June 19th. We estimate this will take about an hour of your time each week for 8 consecutive weeks. However, you are welcome to explore and engage with this project as much as you like.

To join our beta group, you must be 18 years of age or older. In order to get an inside look at this exciting project, we’ll ask that you sign an NDA and our Terms of Service as well as attend a one-hour onboarding livestream with our team to learn more about the tools you’ll have at your disposal for providing feedback.
