July 15, 20169 yr They are going to be at comic con but will be available to all in 2017. A new branch from the Lego tree? Funko pop anyone? Lol

The Cubedudes back in 2010 were sold as one set together (not 4).
July 16, 20169 yr Man these are UGGGGLLLLYYY! No thanks. Big time pass on me both as an investment and as a collector. Just like Pokemon Go, I just don't get the funko pop craze either. This bubble will "pop" in a few years and all these will be worthless. Then there will be all this useless funko pop figurines valued at 0 floating in the great pacific garbage patch. Regardless.... I also see this as another case where Lego is kind of losing their edge. While, we can champion the Disney Castle, and to some degree the Big Ben, Lego has been pretty stale on new and exciting ideas this year.
July 16, 20169 yr At least there's a 97% chance the Mega Bloks variety will be printed and NOT STICKERS.
July 16, 20169 yr I think they look more like Nanoblock, which has been putting out these buildable Super Heros for years. In case you don't know, Nanoblock is a Japanese smaller version of construction toys. Kind of fun if you don't have big hands.
July 16, 20169 yr So, there IS an upside. They could've looked worse. Wow! Those are way worse. Glad Lego didn't go with that Nanoblock look!

I'm 40 years old, an Army officer, a medical provider, and I have subscriptions for Star Wars Smugglers Bounty, Marvel Collectors Corps, and DC Universe subscription boxes. I'm not sure what the heck is wrong with me.

That is what I love about this year instead of having to spend time deciding what to get Lego makes it for me by making bad sets.
July 18, 20169 yr Green Arrow I don't mind since he showed up in Darkseid Invasion. I would like a classic version of the Atom, but I don't recognize that costume. Is it new 52 or something else? Edit - just saw that's the Arrow TV series version of the character. Good choice for an exclusive minifig. Nothing I really want. Edited July 18, 20169 yr by zskid00

Is it new52 or something else? Green Arrow will be a giveaway during the LEGO Dimensions panel on Sunday. Audience members will be given him when they enter the room. (Of course, the one year I'm not going to SDCC, because I normally go on Sunday, and would have definitely hit this panel). I agree - I'd love to have a classic Atom. This version is from the CW "Arrowverse" - it has appeared in Arrow, The Flash, and DC's Legends of Tomorrow.

July 21, 20169 yr Where do you guys think the price for these minifigs will settle at in the next couple of days? I have a feeling since there are only 2 minifigs, the numbers should be higher and therefore price could settle around $100...before going up again...don't know though

July 22, 20169 yr Hmmmmm... I think maybe if a Minecraft mommy and a FUNKO daddy loved each other very much.... That might be the result.
July 23, 20169 yr Go Ashley!http://io9.gizmodo.com/the-real-ahsoka-tano-wore-an-ahsoka-dress-made-out-of-l-1784124639
