LEGO Dimensions Discussion

[just2good]

Eh, a lot of people are saying Unicorn Girl, but I don't see it. She's such a new character in LEGO it just wouldn't make sense for LEGO to put her in Dimensions with no other original themes besides Ninjago and Chima (just based on our speculation). However, if it was an older CMF, that could be possible. Some people may bring up Homer, Bart, and Krusty... but they're licensed.

What does licensing have to do with anything? It's been confirmed that WB and LEGO roped Fox into the game, and I think the pic makes it very clear that they are Simpsons characters. Picture 34 is quite clear. Yellowish head, teal hair, pink shirt, lime pants-that's definitely Krusty. I don't really think Unicorn Girl either, but it's a tall white blur...who else could it be? There's been no evidence of CMFs in the game at all. Arctic Batman, maybe?

[kevkipo]

These are the ones I could identify.

1. Marty McFly

2. Homer Simpson

3. Bartman

5. Wicked Witch

6. Scooby

7. Shaggy

8. Jay

9. Kai

10. Cole

13. Joker

14. Harley Quinn

15. Unicorn Girl?

16. Superman

17. Aquaman

19. Wonder Woman

20. Cyborg

21. Bart Simpson

22. Cyborg with yellow armor? LB3 Space Suit?

24. Benny

34. Krusty the Clown

42. Lloyd

22. Is defenitely Emmet

Arctic Batman... with orange legs?

[Blondie-Wan]

They just aren't clear enough for me to be sure about any of them. I can't even tell for sure which of them might be any of the nineteen characters we specifically have official confirmation of, let alone most characters for whom we don't even have any other info that they're in the game or not. I will agree on one I think is Bart Simpson, but I just don't know about those others.

22. Is defenitely Emmet

You're right. I meant to type the number 23.

[Master_Data]

I've bolded the ones which have been officially confirmed. For some reason, the lists I've seen so far have completely ignored Bad Cop.

1. Marty Mcfly

2. Homer

3. Scarecrow (Wizard of Oz)?

4. ?

5. Wicked Witch

6. Scooby

7. Shaggy

8. ?

9. Kai

10. Cole

No 11 for some reason

12. Ghostbuster

13. Joker

14. Harley

15. ?

16. Superman

17. Aquaman

18. Tin Man

19. Wonder Woman

20. Cyborg

21. Bart

22. Emmet

23. Bad Cop

24. Benny

25. Jay

26. Nya

27. Zane

28. Gollum

29. Legolas

30. Gimli

31. ?

32. Laval

33. Cragger

34. Krusty

35. Unikitty

36. Eris

37. Unknown licensed character

38. ?

39. ?

40. ?

41. Unknown shorter character

42. Lloyd

Just 25 unknowns. Could we also be getting Doc Brown and Sensei Wu (which would explain the two unknown white silhouettes)?

I could definitely imagine Scooby and Shaggy in a team pack, while Laval and Cragger and Joker and Harley would be logical to round out our selection. I'm still unsure as to which of the remaining figures might give us a level pack. Any thoughts?

Well, we've been told Doctor Who will be part of this, so I'd guess a version of the Doctor would be here, and perhaps an appropriate companion as well, though which companion we would get would probably depend upon which incarnation of the Doctor we'd get.

While I don't profess to know who is likely, I will just add that I'd personally love it if some more LEGO-original characters appeared - Johnny Thunder, say, or Olivia, or Clutch Powers.

Here is one of the relatively few articles I've found so far with information beyond the press release basics we've seen everywhere. It confirms those are indeed Troy Baker, Tom Kane and Elizabeth Banks as Batman, Gandalf and Wyldstyle (yay!) - I think we all figured Baker and Banks were there, but it's nice to have confirmation, and I had no idea about Gandalf before (though now that I know I can't help but remember his Star Wars: The Clone Wars work as I listen to him here).

Also with regard to Batman, there's this intriguing little tidbit:

In a demonstration of "Dimensions" for The Associated Press, the two-player action kicked off with heroes Batman, Gandalf and Wyldstyle being ripped from their respective realms and teleported to Oz to restore an interdimensional gateway. At one point, the Caped Crusader from the "Lego" games crossed paths with the surly Batman of "The Lego Movie."

Batman meets Batman?!

Oh! Now that would be hilarious!

If the rumor's true then I'd assume it'd be the same or similar as the minifigure we're getting in the Ideas set, as that's been the case with many set figures so far. Oh man, it'd be so cool to have the Doctor in it, since that's what I've thought about The LEGO Movie 2 having. He must have a pretty big advantage when it comes to dimension-hopping though...

It'd certainly be interesting to see if TLG intend to do anything with the Clutch Powers characters again; we might finally see a physical release of the main character minifigures.

Wow, if they are intending to mix in the alternate incarnations of characters as well then this might be the best darn LEGO crossover ever, albeit harbored by the lack of Marvel, Star Wars, PIXAR, Disney, Nickelodeon, TMNT and Indiana Jones, but what we have and are likely to have is still great!

Who's betting Speed Racer makes an appearance?

A bit more organized and clear for people who wanna make lists and guesses and wahtnot.

How can you not see Bart, Homer and Krusty there? 6 & 7 may also look like Scooby and Shaggy! 12 also kind of looks like a Ghostbuster. Can anyone spot a Doctor-looking one?

[npgcole]

There's going to be more characters added in 2016, so I'm wondering, does the top of the box include the 2016 characters or just the launch figures?

[Master_Data]

Good point. Maybe the vertical lines represent release dates? 1-7 and 19-33 would come with the initial launch and the other 3 groups would be released incrementally thereafter.

[Blondie-Wan]

Who's betting Speed Racer makes an appearance?

That's one I've been thinking is possible. AFAIK, the rights are still controlled by WB, at least for the movie, and I don't think anyone else is doing anything with the franchise in either construction toys or toys-to-life games, so I imagine it's at least a possibility.

I also wonder whether Avatar: The Last Airbender / The Legend of Korra is a possibility. I'm aware LEGO's ongoing relationship with Nickelodeon is inactive, and that the last Nick-controlled franchises that were once LEGO themes have just recently migrated to other construction toy makers. As far as I'm aware, though, Nickelodeon's properties are licensed separately, and for varying lengths of time; remember, when LEGO's Nickelodeon partnership began, they were doing DUPLO sets for Dora the Explorer. They had that license only a short while before Mega Bloks picked it up, but while MB went off and did their own Dora the Explorer sets, LEGO kept on with Spongebob Squarepants and, briefly, Avatar, so Nick must not just assign all their licenses to a single partner under a blanket agreement (or at least, they didn't then). And I don't think any other construction toy companies are doing anything with Avatar / Korra right now.

Ok... we are going crazy with the characters

We need a better pic of that box ASAP

[Artanis I]

What does licensing have to do with anything? It's been confirmed that WB and LEGO roped Fox into the game, and I think the pic makes it very clear that they are Simpsons characters. Picture 34 is quite clear. Yellowish head, teal hair, pink shirt, lime pants-that's definitely Krusty. I don't really think Unicorn Girl either, but it's a tall white blur...who else could it be? There's been no evidence of CMFs in the game at all. Arctic Batman, maybe?

I think he meant it the other way, that the Simpsons inclusion is an exception to his idea that recent CMFs (unicorn girl) wouldn't be included.

[legofanatic12]

Number 3 is not even Bartman, but it could be a protagonist from Portal.

[Robert8]

New pic (I think...)

[8BrickMario]

Ninjago, Erebor, Tower of Barad-dur, Cloud Cuckoo Land, and Gotham. Cool.

Why is Gotham City in Daylight?

[Robert8]

If Cloud Cuckoo Land will appear, there is no way the CMF's won't be a part of this.

They are Cloud Cuckoo Land's population

[BluePulse]

is anyone else confused by the lack of the number 11 on the picture?

[enkeybo]

It would be weird for LEGO to have a Chell minifigure in this (where's Atlas and P-Body?) but I've been waiting for LEGO Portal sets for forever. Let's keep our fingers crossed and pray that those CUUSOO projects didn't die in vain.

If LEGO does join up with Valve, could we be seeing Half-Life or TF2 products as well?

I also really hope that the speculation around Avatar: The Last Airbender (and Legend of Korra) is true. That franchise deserves a lot more than just two measly sets.

Both of those are rated M by ESRB, and TF2 is pretty darn violent?

[Master_Data]

Not going to happen. Portal is more likely than those two, and I doubt that even that will make it (I don't think that's Chell in the picture).

[VictorFrenchFries]

I'm betting that the ones that are missing are from The Wizard of Oz.

[enkeybo]

Whatever #3 turns out to be, I seriously doubt it being scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz. If you look at him in the trailer, he has BROWN legs, a DARK GREEN torso, and a pointy dark brown hat.

#3 has ORANGE legs, a WHITE torso, and even some light flesh from the look of it.

Whoever it is, it's not Scarecrow.
