LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2015 Arsenal Minifigure Giveaway

July 24, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 10 Comments

Earlier this week, I wanted your guys’ opinion on what kind of giveaway I should do for the San Diego Comic Con 2015 exclusive minifigures that I have. It looks like there’s an overwhelming response that you guys want three separate giveaways so that’s what I’ll do. I’ll make each giveaway a seperate post using the Rafflecopter app and each giveaway will last about a week.

The first giveaway is for the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Arsenal Minifigure. Like I said before, these giveaways are worldwide so those who weren’t able to attend SDCC can have a chance to win as well.

The ways to qualify for the giveaway are stated in the Rafflecopter app below. While you’re at The Brick Fan Facebook Page, feel free to like, share, and comment on this contest post. The Twitter and Google+ entries are optional but they do give more entries for following my other social media outlets.

This particular giveaway will end on 7/31/15 at 11:59:59pm. After that, I’ll update this post again with the winner’s name and I’ll contact them directly.

Good luck everyone!

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes The Joker Bumper Car (30303) Polybag Review

July 22, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

One of the best LEGO polybags in 2015 in my opinion has to be the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes The Joker Bumper Car (30303). We first heard about it back in December but there’s been an issue of it being publicly available for purchase. First it was on Toys R Us’ website but then it was taken down then there were rumors or it showing up at Target but that never happened, to my knowledge. As of this point, the only places I’ve heard of the polybag being available, besides eBay or BrickLink, was during the Daily Mail promotion, at a select few Toys R Us stores, and currently at LEGOLAND parks. It contains 47 pieces and normally retails for $3.99.

Minifigure

The only minifigure in the polybag is Joker himself. This version of the Joker has been in three previous sets so it isn’t that hard to find him but this polybag is easily the cheapest way to get him in a set. He wears his iconic purple suit with a green vest on the inside. He has a double-sided white face paint with a sinister smirk on one side and evil grin on the other. To finish his look, he has his green hair. THe Joker’s accessory is a pie.

Build

The bumper car build is pretty simple but is easily recognizable. It uses some clever SNOT building techniques to create the bumper areas. What’s nice is that it also has some wheels … Continue

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2015 Action Comics #1 Superman Review

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2015 Exclusive Action Comics #1 Superman

This past Thursday, it was technically the first day of San Diego Comic 2015 and as a tradition, many people got in lines for various things but mainly panels and exclusives. LEGO again this year released a few exclusives for sale at the convention and the first day was for the limited edition LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Action Comics #1 Superman. This was a highly sought after set when it was first announced back in June.

The set recreates Joe Shuster’s 1938 iconic cover which features Superman’s first comic book cover. The LEGO set itself contains 145 pieces and retailed for $40. Some people like to keep the set sealed to preserve its “value” while for me, I opened it, and provided readers with the building instructions since there was many who were interested in building their own.

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2015 Exclusive Action Comics #1 Superman Building Instructions

July 12, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 20 Comments

I few days ago at San Diego Comic Con 2015, a very good friend by the name of Ryan surprised me with one of the exclusive LEGO sets that were sold, the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Action Comics #1 Superman. I’m very grateful because I wasn’t able to pick up the set Thursday morning. Here I’m doing something that LEGO collectors and reseller will probably hate but people who weren’t able to get the set at SDCC or general LEGO fans will appreciate. I’ve opened the set and have provided every with instructions on how to build your own version of Action Comics #1.

Included with the instructions are the parts list so you can BrickLink the parts you need. Most of the parts are pretty common but there are some that have just been released and pretty rare at this time including the yellow 1×1 plate with clip 6071270, the yellow 6L bar 6109813, the dark green modified brick with curved top 6100223, and the front grill 6021687. The only brand new piece is the dark green roof 6135573 so you may have to find a substitute until that piece is more widely available. Superman is the same one we’ve had before. You can check out the full review of the set here.

Below are the images of the steps to create the set but if it’s too small, head on over to my Flickr album and you can check out larger images of them.

Update: After many, many, many requests, I have … Continue

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2015 Exclusive Arsenal Minifigure Review

July 10, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 9 Comments

On the first day of San Diego Comic Con 2015, LEGO did a raffle for the first exclusive minifigure for this year, the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Arsenal, aka Roy Harper, from the hit television series Arrow. The packaging is the same clamshell plastic that has been used the last few years. The cardboard shows a nice dark background of a city and the words “San Diego Comic Con International 2015 Exclusive” on the bottom left corner. The back of the cardboard doesn’t have any special details except the usual legal wording.

For the Arsenal minifigure itself, the torso has some very nice dark red print on both the front and back of the jacket. There are some harness buckles on the left and right of the torso as well as a buckle around the waist. The back of the torso shows his quiver filled with arrows. The legs are black with more buckles on each of the legs. Arsenal wears a red mask and to much of many people, he does include a double-sided head with an angry expression on the other. He also wears a red hood that’s a similar mold to the green ones we’ve seen before. Finally, his accessory is the black bow.

Overall, the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Arsenal is a pretty cool minifigure, especially to Arrow fans. Unfortunately for fans who aren’t able to attend SDCC, the only way to get this minifigure, at this time, is through the secondary market and from looking at eBay, they’re … Continue

LEGO Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Batmobile Revealed

June 30, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Batmobile

One of the anticipated movies that will be shown off at San Diego Comic Con 2015 will be Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and today The Wall Street Journal has revealed one of the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes sets that will be released in conjunction with the movie next year, the Batmobile. The set will have 306 pieces and retail for $29.99. It also includes a new Batman minifigure as well as two un-named characters while the Batmobile itself will contain some stud shooters. There will also be another vehicle with the set. So for $30, you get a Batmobile, another vehicle, and three minifigures including a new Batman outfit. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me!

The article also states that the Batmobile will be available on January 1st so we can probably expect it by late December. The set will be on display next week at SDCC and I’ll have some close-up shots of it when it revealed to the public. Thanks to everyone who wrote in about it.

SDCC 2015 LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Mini-Build

It looks like all the San Diego Comic Con 2015 LEGO exclusive sets have been revealed and there are now official box art images of the sets. What we didn’t know about the LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Mini-Build is that there will also be a R2-D2 minifigure included in the set. Although it’s not a new version, it’s nice that one is included. If there’s more sets to be revealed, I’ll add it on to this post.

On another note, I believe there’s still one more exclusive minifigure to be revealed because it was noted on a previous article that the drawings would be held from Thursday through Saturday. The LEGO Marvel Super Heroes All New Captain America (Sam Wilson) and LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Arsenal have already been revealed.
