Rumored San Diego Comic 2016 Exclusive LEGO Minifigures

June 23, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 9 Comments

San Diego Comic Con 2016 is just around the corner and speculation has been going on about which LEGO minifigures will be given away this year. Earlier today, Sir Gareth over on Eurobricks has revealed that they are Captain America (Steve Rogers) for Marvel and the Atom for DC.

This version of Captain America is the recently controversial Hydra agent version of the character. As for the Atom, it will be from Ray Palmer from the CW’s Arrow/Flash series and the Legends of Tomorrow series. This will be the third character featured from the Arrowverse as the Green Arrow was given away back in 2013 and Arsenal from last year.

Of course, none of this is confirmed yet until they are revealed, hopefully soon, as exclusives from other companies have already been announced. Stay tuned as more details for LEGO in SDCC 2016 are released.

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes – Justice League Gotham City Breakout Pre-Order on Amazon

April 14, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

For those who have been waiting for it, the upcoming LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes – Justice League: Gotham City Breakout is now available for pre-order on Amazon. We also have a release date of June 21 for the movie. As you can see, the movie also comes with the exclusive Nightwing LEGO minifigure which is the blue version of the character.

Batman faces his greatest challenge yet: VACATION! The caped crusader reluctantly agrees to let Batgirl and Nightwing take him on a long overdue vacation from crimefighting, while Superman and the Justice League watch over Gotham City. Neither operation goes as planned when Batman’s vacation is cut short by dangers from his past and invaders from the center of the earth, and Superman and the other Leaguers quickly realize just how much Batman usually has his hands full with the villains of Gotham.

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Character Encyclopedia Book Review

April 11, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

A week ago, DK’s latest edition of a LEGO Character Encyclopedia was released with the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Character Encyclopedia. This 208 page book details a lot of the sets and minfigures that have been released since 2006 up until the winter 2016 sets. One of the main features of the book is the exclusive minifigure that is included which I’ll get to later.

The LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Character Encyclopedia starts off with the table of contents which is somewhat useful but to an extent. I felt that it’s more useful when searching for a set or minifigure by year, if you know it, since there is no index in the back of the book which I think would be a much better help when searching for a particular item.

For each set or minifigure, there are lots of information on the page like the description and spotlights various area to give even more info. Also there’s a small section what the book calls “vital stats” which includes details such as owner, used for, and gear for sets and likes, dislikes, friends, foes, skills, and gear for minifigures. Below that, it also gives details of the set names, numbers, and the year it was released. As I mentioned before, the encyclopedia is updated to the current wave of LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes sets including the Mighty Micros.

After that, you have a couple of interviews with LEGO Model Designer John Cuppage and Senior Graphic Designer Adam Corbally. At the end … Continue

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Batman Classic TV Series – Mr. Freeze (30603) Review

April 6, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 10 Comments

At the beginning of the month, LEGO released a new LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes – Batman Classic TV Series Mr. Freeze (30603) polybag as part of a promotion at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home. You can get him with purchases of $75 or more and it is supposed to be a small extension to the Batman Classic TV Series Batcave (76052).

The polybag features the Mr. Freeze character in the 1966 Classic Batman TV series portrayed by Otto Preminger. The face printing is perfect down to the long red eyebrows and wrinkles.

His cooling suit is a light blue color with upper part of the torso having printing for the temperature controls of the suit. There’s also some printing of the freeze collar that continues on the back although I wish there was an actual piece for that.

He also wears a cold pack with two tanks that connects with the trans-clear piece around the neck. Another detail is the knob to turn the air on and off. Finally, we have the blue Freeze Gun that connects to the air pack using a whip piece.

Overall, the Batman Classic TV Series Mr. Freeze (30602) is a very nice 16 piece polybag. It will be available until April 15, while supplies last so we’ll see if it will be fairly rare or not in the future since it requires $75 purchases to get it.

If you picked up the Batman Classic TV Series Batcave (76052), Mr. Freeze does look very nice standing alongside … Continue
