10230 Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 How many of these will there be. This looks like it will get quite expensive to get them all. Who cares about the game - but $15 per minifig... Quote
legodelorean Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Man, these look great. I'm going crazy over the BTTF packs. $29.99 is pretty steep for Marty, the mini Delorean and the hover board. Wait, did I just hear myself correctly? A hover board?? Did I say a hover board?? It's got a freakin' hover board?!?!?! Sweet!!! 1 Quote
fuzzy_bricks Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) Some new licenses announced, not sure what they're planning on for Midway Arcade. http://www.thebrickfan.com/new-licenses-announced-for-lego-dimensions-including-ghostbusters-and-midway-arcade/ Curious to see how they make the portal recognize the different builds.

fuzzy_bricks Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 So after reading this article, it looks like you don't actually have to build the different models, and doing so without going through the in-game process of changing the model, will not change it on screen.http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-06-02-lego-dimensions Quote
inversion Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I will tell you a secret. You can keep the bricks in the bag and just use the plate with the chip. 1 Quote
jay4e Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) I will tell you a secret. You can keep the bricks in the bag and just use the plate with the chip. Could have potential for semi-part out. pull out the chips and sell them in packs to people who just want to play the game. then sell all the models and minifigs. Edited June 4, 2015 by jay4e 1 Quote
fuzzy_bricks Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I will tell you a secret. You can keep the bricks in the bag and just use the plate with the chip. Sure, this was pretty much a given for the minifigs, but I was wondering if the buildable models would be different. I didn't know if they were going to try and do something similar to the app bricks where different configurations of a few key bricks led to a different model being represented on screen. Quote

I was imagining infinite possibilities Quote
jay4e Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 new portal dimensions trailer this looks interesting, no idea what is going on there but its interesting.... Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 new portal dimensions trailer https://youtu.be/W8X-vLGUPjc this looks interesting, no idea what is going on there but its interesting.... Wow so there are different abilities associated with how the pieces are placed on the portal ? Now that is new. On the other portal based games, the figures are placed on the portal and you basically forget about them as you use the characters to play the game. This is going to be an expensive fall 1 Quote
Locutus001 Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 I'm very much disappointed that LEGO Star Wars will not be part of this...Another grate idea that partly founders on the greed of big companies... Quote
Quacs Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 I'm very much disappointed that LEGO Star Wars will not be part of this...Another grate idea that partly founders on the greed of big companies... Wouldn't that be a direct competitor to Infinity? Quote
Locutus001 Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Wouldn't that be a direct competitor to Infinity?Yes that's why I said: great idea that partly founders on the greed of big companies.From a financial point of view (from Disney) I totally can understand why they wouldn't want that... but that doesn't change the fact that it dashes the idea behind LEGO dimensions (a little bit).Let's be honest: Dimensions is about playing it with whatever LEGO Character you love! And one of the most popular (if not THE most popular) themes is LEGO Star Wars. Of course I'd love to run through dimensions with Darth Vader or Yoda etc. My own interest in LEGO has been rekindled because of the LEGO Star Wars theme. Also it is arguable how much it really would hurt Disney Infinity, as these are two different worlds and two different games. I mean if I want to play LEGO characters I go for LEGO dimensions and if I want to play these 3D characters I play Disney infinity.Personally I don't think it would probably not hurt Disney that much.

TheOrcKing Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Looks like Peter Venkman will get the hair he deserves just like Emmett Brown did. Also the signature "No Ghost" patch dons the arm making this more of the complete character than the one in the Ecto-1 set. Quote
thoroakenfelder Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 I want to play just the Doctor Who levels, and I can see buying a bunch of those Dalek/Cyberman packs. Oh LEGO, you win. 1 Quote

Alpinemaps Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 I took a ton of photos today at the Dimensions demo. Will post soon. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Photos from the Dimensions demo area.It was a small hotel ballroom. They had about 10 stations set up where you play different levels. There was someone working each station to help you figure things out.They had most of the add-on packs on display (didn't see Joker or Harley). They had an area set up where you could pre-order the game, and if you did, you got a free t-shirt (which was pretty cool, and very hard to resist). There was a small coffee/soda bar. They had the different commercials/shorts running on a big screen up front. And then they had these different "bubbles" set up with physical models of the different realms from the game.Most notably, to me, were a Hill Valley set up, with a Chima warrior driving the Mystery Machine through the thunder storm and crossing the lighting line to get back to the future. The Yellow Brick Road with Oz, and, biggest of all to me, was the Kwik-E-Mart, with a minifigure scale Tardis in front!Enjoy the pics. 3 Quote
