And I think an even better choice than having platform exclusives would be bringing previously platform-exclusive characters to LEGO Dimensions. It would be great for the game to be able to say it's the one game in which one can have, say, Mario, Sackboy, and Master Chief all together.

;)

If anyone can do that, it's LEGO. It's definitely more possible than it ever has been now you can play Mario on an Apple product. 

I, too, would love to see a few more characters released from existing franchises. I think LEGODalekbuster523 may also have something to say about that.

Yeah, I want to see more characters from Doctor Who, The Simpsons, Jurassic Park/World and Harry Potter. Especially Doctor Who - the franchise with the most new character potential.

Surly every franchise has new character potential? Portal and Midway Arcade are the only ones that seem unlikely. 

Also I wouldn't say Doctor Who has the most as its characters simply aren't as iconic as say Velma, Marge or Dumbledore. That being said I wouldn't complain if it got new packs. :P

I definitely think Elves has potential for LEGO Dimensions. Possibly also DC Superhero Girls, though they already have three different versions of the DC universe already

I think DC girls would be completely different from the other DC themes as it would be set in a school, which could be a really cool setting. Also it be fun to turn all the existing DC characters into their high school counterpart. :P

Not every franchise. Back to the Future only has Marty and Doc (both who have already been released; nobody will want to play Biff and Jennifer), E.T. only really has E.T. himself that's that appealing as a minifigure...

Doctor Who on the other hand still has many iconic characters who still haven't been released - and yes, they are DEFINITELY as iconic as Velma from Scooby Doo. The Autons, Sontarans, Silurians, Ice Warriors, Sea Devils, Silence and Zygons are all iconic Doctor Who monsters everybody has heard of that still haven't been released as minifigures. As for other characters: Missy/the Master, Strax, Madam Vastra, Jenny, Clara, Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart, Rose Tyler, Captain Jack Harkness, Sarah Jane Smith...the list could go on forever. I don't know anyone who wouldn't play as any of those characters. Of course, next year there's the new companion Bill too - and they'd be missing a trick if they don't release her as an NFC figure next year.

I just watched the entire Creature From the Black Lagoon trilogy over the holidays, and now I'd really love to see Universal Monsters become part of Dimensions. Though I guess there might be too much overlap with Scooby-Doo.

I wonder how much longer it's gonna take for LEGO and Mattel to realize that LEGO Masters of The universe would be a match made in Heaven...

 

 

Never. Mattel is not only one of Lego's biggest competitors but wholly owns Mega Bloks. Skeletor and He-Man are already represented in Mega Bloks' "Kubros" series of buildable figurines, and if they ever decide to make any sorts of buildable playsets you can be sure that that will likewise be done under the Mega Bloks brand.

Good Lord, you're right...  For some reason I thought Mega Bloks was owned by Hasbro...

Such a shame... :(

Peter Pan Goes Wrong Level Pack:

Minifigure - Jonathan (Peter Pan costume)

Vehicle - Pirate Ship

Gadget - Peter's Shadow

Level - 'Level That Goes Wrong', based on the BBC adaptation of the play Peter Pan Goes Wrong. As part of its commitment to community theatre, the BBC has commissioned The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society, an amateur dramatics group, to recreate the JM Barrie classic as part of their festive programming. Peter Pan flies through the air, Captain Hook and his pirates set adrift in the lagoon, and Tinkerbell is due to light up the stage in a stunning electrical costume... what can possibly go wrong?! 

Adventure World - A giant theatre with audience, stage, various sets and props to walk through based on both Peter Pan Goes Wrong and Mischief Theatre's other shows. Quests from various members of the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society - including Max, Trevor, Lucy and Robert.

Well they're perfectly fine with having 3 different versions of DC characters and 2 sets of Ghostbusters, so Universal Monsters wouldn't be that much of a problem.

Commander Keen Level Pack

I haven't heard of any of them (and I'm Irish, so surly regions were Doctor Who is less popular will have no clue who they are), the only Doctor Who characters I know have been released already. I do think they should make a companion playable somehow. Hey look I'm a huge fan of Scooby-Doo sometimes I think everyone knows who Scrappy, Thorn and The Creeper are but sometimes are fan bases can blind us. ;)

Creature From The Black Lagoon was parodied in Friends before so maybe. :P

How can you have only heard of the Doctor, Daleks and Cybermen? Most people have at least heard of Missy/The Master as well.

Dude! Jazz Jackrabbit would surely work!

We can dream. Both underused/forgotten IPs that the developers could potentially be used in Lego Dimensions to help publicize them.

Nope. Gotta go with soupperson. I have heard of multiple doctors, multiple companions, daleks, and cybermen. Never heard of Missy/The Master until we played through the Dr. Who level and saw the representation of her there. Even my son who does watch Dr. Who wasn't familiar with her. (He is self-admittedly not any kind of expert, though. He has only seen a few seasons thus far.)

So, unless they do a Fun Pack with a companion, I would have to agree that Dr. Who is pretty much tapped out for relevant characters.

For the topic at hand, my wish is for a Booster Gold Fun Pack with a buildable Skeets. (Scale would be wrong, but I can live with that.) Or a team pack with BB. Ah, we can dream at least ...

I've never heard of casual viewers who haven't heard of Missy/The Master before. S/he's the Moriarty to the Doctor's Sherlock and is one of the first classic series villains the new series brought back. The character's been in the series since 1971 and was reintroduced in 2007! S/he's even appeared three times since then (2009/10, 2014, 2015)! 

I can guarantee LEGO that if they sold a Team Pack with Missy/The Master, Clara, the Master's TARDIS and Clara's TARDIS it would be a huge success - and if I were to be wrong, I'd eat a hundred socks.

Minecraft Team Pack: Includes Steve and Alex for the characters. Then for the equipment you get the Ender dragon and a Wither.

Mad Max Level Pack: Includes Mad Max, The Pursuit Special(his car), and a motorcycle. A classic car chase, featuring some generic villains not paying homage to any specific movie.

Jason Bourne Level Pack: includes Jason Bourne and a computer to give you some abilities, and a flying drone. In the level you avoid the police and roam around while trying to complete some objectives.

Pacific Rim Fun Pack: Raleigh Becket and a red Jaegar

I don't know about minecraft, since it's all about building stuff, they would have to add a whole new mode to the game. Jason Bourne would be pretty cool though.

I cant see Ronald ever appearing in Dimensions given LEGO probably wouldn't want to associate themselves so closely with a company that is seen as public enemy #1 in the war against childhood obesity...

Plus I dont know how much Ronald is being used in their ads these days (especially in countries like Australia where advertising junk food to children is more highly regulated these days)

Well, it's not like Lego doesn't partner with McDonalds at all anymore—we're getting a Lego Batman Movie promotion in February. But in general I'd be skeptical of any sort of advertising mascot appearing in Lego Dimensions. It'd be super weird to have, say, the GEICO gecko or the M&Ms characters show up in a completely unrelated video game, even one that features so many crossovers with pop-culture IPs.

McDonalds and child obesity is a non-issue. It's not their fault if kids have too many McDonald's. They don't force children to eat their products. I could easily see them giving Ronald McDonald NFC minifigures as part of their annual Monopoly prize draw.

For those suggesting figs based on the DC Comics TV shows (Flash, Arrow, Gotham etc) I suspect those might be a bit darker and less kid-appropriate than the comics and movies that the DC stuff we got so far in Dimensions is based on.

Except they included Star Labs in the game from the Flash TV show. So I don't think they are impossible to include
