We all saw a teaser a few months ago. Now we have an official minifigure picture. I am not sure if this is a licensed figure or not. Since we are getting a movie, I guess it should be considered as such. 🙂
This was posted over on the Lego facbook page this morning.

EDIT: I missed one. Gimli has a new head as well. 🙁 I just went and picked one up. I will add pics later.
I picked up all of the starter Pack, Fun Packs and Team Packs from wave one that fit the following criteria.
Were not Chima or Ninjago
Were not Jurasic Park
Were Licensed
I thought that they may be unique
I picked up some of these from Amazon, some from Best Buy and Some from Toys R Us.
I also picked up the Starter Pack with Batman, WyldStyle and Gandalf. All in all, I picked up 12 figures including the ones that come in the Starter pack. I also picked up quite a few vehicles, but I do not have time to look at those today.
Of the 12 figures that I looked at in Wave on, my original prediction was pretty close. I was wrong on a few points as follows.
Gandalf is sporting a new head
WildStyle is not new
Bad Cop is not new
So we ended up with 7 new or different licensed figures in Wave 1.
The six shown above, plus the guard from Jurassic Park.
As expected, Portal is a unique figure. This one is 29.99 on Amazon.
Scooby has a new head with his tongue sticking out. The New figures is on the left in all cases for comparison. This set is 24.99 on Amazon.
The next two figures are from the Starter Pack. This is the most exspensive item that I purchased at 99 on Amazon.
Batman has a mix up pf previously released parts. He has a closed cowl and a differnet head than the figure that already has this body.
Gandalf was very difficult to tell. They gave him a new face.
Which you can clearly see here.
here is a better picture for those in denial!
Legolas also received a new face that makes this figure unique. This one is 14.99 on Amazon.
The witch is new. The wizard of Oz set is 14.99 on Amazon.
Here are the non unique figures that I picked up today.
Marty is sort of Unique if you count the Guitar, but all of these are identical to the prior figures that were already released in other sets.
I stopped by Toys R Us today and the shelves were still full at 3:00 PM.
I also snapped a picture of the display that they had at Toys R us. The one at Walmart had a TV in it as well.
Here are the Team, Fun and Level packs that I picked up.
Finally, her is the back of both of the boxs from the Starter Pack.
Here is my original post of all of the unique figures in the Lego Dimenions sets. I had to update a few items, but it is still holding up pretty well.

I have never quite figures out what I should do with these. I originally picked these up on a trip to Toys R Us several years back. My initial thought was to make them part of one of the minifigure displays that I was working on at the time.
At one point, I though about making one of these puzzle games out of Legos that would allow you to move around all of the pieces until you had the picture in the proper place. I also thought about doing a program that did this on the phone with these images also.
But, I ended up putting them all together on one large display that I just put with my minifigure displays. The set consists of Two Pirates of the Caribbean cases, two Star Wars cases and two Indiana Jones Cases.
In looking these up today, I noticed that I am missing the Harry Potter Case. I am not sure why I did not see this one earlier. So I just picked one of those up.
This one is a little harder to find. I am not sure why, but it is the hardest one to find. I did find one over on Amazon for $45. If you are looking for this one, you may need to look at a used one or on eBay.

This is my Lego Indiana Jones Minifigure Collection. This collection started on a whim one day in 2009. I was mostly just collecting Lego Star Wars MISB sets. MISB = Mint in Sealed Box Sets and Lego Star Wars minifigures at that time. I had started coming to terms with the fact that I may want to start just collecting minifigures and I had started to build display cases to display the minifigures in.
The friday night in question, I had gone to Play Poker with some of my friends. We play ones a month with a $20 buy in and 3rd place gets $20, 2nd place gets $30 and the rest goes to the winner. That night, the post was $240 and the winner took home $180 and it was me!!!!. I woke up the next morning and I had to do some shopping at Target and as is usual, I decided to check out the Lego Isle. While in the Isle, I came across the Lego Indiana Jones Temple of Doom Set, and it was on sale.
Now this set had all sorts of things going in its favor to be going home with me that day.
I had just won at poker and had money burning a hole in my pocket.
The set was on sale
The set had a small guage train track piece in it that I wanted to see
The set had the Mola Ram figure in it which at the time was pretty detailed
It was September or October and I had run out os Star Wars sets to purchase for the year and I was waiting for the next wave to be released in January.
So I picked it up for I believe $69.99. I brought it home and pulled out the minifigures and said those are sweet. I then promptly built a small display case for these figures and set them on a shelf. I felt that I was finished with Indiana Jones at that time.
I then went to work over the next few days and I would come home and I would look at the figures next to my Star Wars figures and I would then go to Bricklink and look at the other ones that I was missing. And I would say I do not want those any ways. This happened a few times until I finally started picking up a few other sets and then I ultimately finished it off buy buying sets off of eBay and Bricklink. This was a difficult one to complete because you basically had to find new figures and make sure that no one have mixed up the parts. Too many close parts to look at.
Here is a full list of all of the Indiana Jones Figures here.
So, if you are looking for a licensed theme to start collection, this one is relatively cheap to get into. The full set of these figures will only set you back about $250 bucks.
I checked on ebay and they have quite a few Mola Ram figures for about $20 bucks here.
My collection is missing one figure that I did not know about until today. If you look at the Skeleton in my collection. He has Silver Armor and it appears that lego also make a Pearl Light Gray version on another set. 🙁 Off to Bricklink I will go. It has to be complete. Right?
These two figures will also need to be added to the price guide in time. I have about 100 to add right now. 🙂
I will be adding a video to this post shortly.
Please like my Facebook page to see more of these collections.
TT Games has confirmed that they have a three year plan to add more content to Lego Dimensions. So the good news is that it is not going anywhere soon!
I recently posted all of the unique figures that are coming in the packs here.
“And there’s no end in sight – developer TT Games is currently planning to support Dimensions with new add-ons until at least 2018.
“We have a three year plan at the moment and we’ve got no intention of stopping there,” associate producer Mark Warburton told Eurogamer during an interview conducted at EGX.
“We’ve created the technology to the degree that we’re happy it meets our needs for the future. We’ve created the toy pad so that it shouldn’t need to be updated. And we can just create new level and character packs to keep expanding that.”
I am starting to see more of these over on eBay so we should see a bunch of review for these shortly.
I most excited about this set with the GhostBusters Slimer and StayPuft.

I have said this before. My first love is Lego minifigures, but these Lego promotional bricks are just super collectible and also easier to display. All the same size, stackable etc.
I laughed pretty hard when I saw this brick on eBay and I thought it I would really like the ones with a D and an O! At least I thought it was Funny. This seemed a little un Lego at first, but it appear that they have a whole campaign around the Big E!
I was able to find 2 more of these on eBay, but that was it? I cannot find it anywhere else. I am going to have to get myself one of these.
I have not been able to find this brick on Bricklink or in the promobricks catalog.
The Big E appears to be a State Fair for 6 New England States all at once. You can read a little more about it here if you are interested.
I found two other things that were kind of interesting tonight. Spending way too much time trying to learn more about the Lego Dimensions that will be released this weekend!
This Lego Promotional NBA Polybag.
And 2. that Amazon is discounting its Prime Membership by 33% today. If you want or plan to get this, this is a good deal.

If you are like me, you buy a lot of Lego and Lego sets.
I use Amazon Prime for the free shipping and the Free Movies. I find that it is nice to pick out my lego sets and just have them arrive two days later. They also have free storage now as well, but I have not been using that yet. You can look at the offer here. It says that the $33 dollars discount will be applied at checkout. If you are looking at getting this anyways, this is a good deal.
In my opinion, the free shipping convenience with Christmas coming up makes this worth it. This promotion has to do with their new show Transparent which just one 5 emmys. I have not even heard about this show, but I will at least give the first show a try. 🙂
I looked over the language and it appears that you can still take advantage of this offer if you are an existing Amazon Prime member as well if you do the following.
Buy yourself a gift subscription
Stop your Auto Renew on your account
Use the gift subscription to renew when you are due up
