Fantastic Beasts story pack was leaked the old-fashioned way... from the new Argos catalogue. Also, this confirms the UK price for story packs is £40, which is pretty neat considering that the level packs are £30.

no it isn't

 

 

If you were to buy everything in Lego Dimensions what's the total cost by now?

Considering that the level packs (which contain only one level in-game, a minifig and two mini-builds) are £30 over here, a tenner more for five extra in-game levels and a stylish new build for the toypad isn't that bad of a deal tbh.

Moved this to the Modern LEGO Games subforum as it's obviously just the go-to topic for all discussion of this game and having it buried way back in LEGO News is cumbersome.

Welp, time for more footage of the Sonic stuff:

 

 

Stuff of note:

  • There's a custom intro a-la Sonic 1 (it's a bit cut off in that vid, here's the best vid we've got of it), and interestingly enough Sonic Team's credited in part for it. Maybe Sonic Team's been more involved in this level pack than we first thought?
  • Sonic's HUD in the top left-hand corner of the screen literally has 1UP monitors representing the health hearts. 
  • Sonic also does his classic "oh I've been hit" pose when hit by a badnik in the stage. 
  • At 1:50 there's a hidden area in one of the loops with an animal capsule in it. Probably contains a minikit at a guess.
  • 2:25: "You will go through all years of sonic" - Pretty sure they don't mean literally everything, but they namedrop Chaos, Mecha Sonic and Metal Sonic as being in the level. Also they mention that it's gonna be roughly 6 stages in total, which makes sense considering the length of other level packs.
  • At 2:55 Sonic doesn't just break up into pieces like everyone else in the game when they die: he falls off the screen a-la the classics. 
  • At 3:19 when Sonic gets in the Tornado, he doesn't pilot it - he stands on the wing and Tails pilots it for you. Amazing.
  • Neat lil' detail: When being sprung about on the springs, all the other characters flail about - except Sonic, who'll flail for a second and then move into his normal bouncing-off-spring pose from the classics. It's the little things that count.
  • 3:36: They confirm that you collect the seven chaos emeralds through the level pack, and by the looks of it Super Sonic has a lot more sparkly effects around him than that last clip.
  • 3:50: There's a giant special stage ring at the end of the act that they mention will take you to a special stage. Sadly they don't show the special stage, but it's neat to know that we're getting 'em.

That's all the stuff I noticed, and oh boy November 18th can't come soon enough.

oh hey, just2good said some details about the now-cancelled year thre-

What I heard Year 3 was going to be bigger than year 2 - there was going to be a new peripheral (a collaboration between TT Games, LEGO, and PhotonX) that would've wiped out all other toys to life competition, allowing any character and vehicle you want in the game. No idea how that would have worked. Well, it won't happen now unfortunately.

 

welp

PhotonX? Never heard of them...

...hang on...

So, they do a lot of R&D stuff about 3D scanning. Sounds interesting, but if it was implemented into LEGO Dimensions there'd probably be a lot of limitations with it (e.g. it probably wouldn't be compatible with "old" LEGO bricks/pieces/prints/minifigs).

Vehicles, in my mind, would be physically impossible to scan in.

 

So yeah, that last wave sounds like a pipe dream.
