LEGO Marvel Super Heroes SDCC 2015 Exclusive All New Captain America (Sam Wilson) Review

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes SDCC 2015 All New Captain America (Sam Wilson)

In my second review of the San Diego Comic Con 2015 LEGO exclusives, I have in hand the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes All New Captain America (Sam Wilson) minifigure. This version of Captain America is based on the new Marvel Secret Wars event where Sam Wilson, formerly the Falcon, has taken the reigns of Captain America.

Like with the other SDCC LEGO exclusive minifigures, Captain America is packaged in the small clamshell with a piece of cardboard to show the background. The background itself has the Secret Wars logo with some meteors falling with the red, white, and blue. The bottom left corner does show “San Diego Comic Con International 2015 Exclusive” so this minifigure might not show up in future sets.

The Sam Wilson Captain America minifigure has some great printing throughout and there are many small details that make the minifigure a definite pick up. The torso is mostly blue with the white star and wings. The lower area of the torso has some red to round out the colors of the flag. The belt buckle is one of the details that stand out for me. The legs are blue and red with the red part being the boots that are half printed on the front, side, and back. The head is mostly white representing the mask Sam wears with some red goggles. One nice thing to note is that he has a double-sided head with a smiling expression on one side and a stern look on the other. The hair is the slick … Continue

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2015 Exclusive Arsenal Minifigure Review

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes SDCC 2015 Arsenal

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

Official LEGO San Diego Comic Con 2015 Schedule

July 6, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

Earlier today, LEGO tweeted out their official schedule for San Diego Comic Con 2015 including details for the retail exclusives as well as the the exclusive minifigure drawings including the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes All New Captain America (Sam Wilson) and LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Arsenal.

They have also listed out the schedule for their product reveals during the convention. On Thursday, July 9th, LEGO will be revealing the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Batmobile. On Friday, they’ll be revealing a LEGO Ninjago set. I’m guessing it’ll be the direct-to-consumer Ninjago Temple (70751). Finally, for their big finale on Saturday, July 11th, there will be a LEGO Star Wars reveal. We already know that the LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Buildable Battle Figures Stormtrooper will be shown off there but hopefully there will be more sets displayed as well.

LEGO SDCC 2015 Exclusives Schedule

SDCC 2015 LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Mini-Build

If you’re attending San Diego Comic Con next week and want to get in on the LEGO exclusives, FBTB has given some more details about the drawings, more specifically the days in which the exclusives are sold. We already knew that there will be drawings for the three exclusive sets but we now know that you can’t purchase all of them in one day like previous years.

For this year, each set will only be available a particular day so if you want to get all three sets, you’ll have to stand in line each day to enter the raffles. Sunday is a wildcard day as they will be doing a drawing for all tickets that haven’t been redeemed from Thursday to Saturday. If you were hoping to get the LEGO exclusives on Preview Night, you’re out of luck because nothing will be sold or given away on that day.

Thursday: LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Action Comics #1 Superman™
Friday: LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Throne of Ultron™
Saturday: LEGO Star Wars™ Dagobah™ Mini-Build
Sunday: There will be a drawing for tickets that have not been redeemed on this day

Nothing will be sold or given away on Wednesday, Preview Night.
