My dream is to one day, in the near future, go to the San Diego Comic Con (SDCC). Always lots of cool stuff there. Amazing costumes. Cool people. Rubbing elbows with celebrities. And product announcements.
This year is no exception. Lego is showing off some stuff that will be coming in the newly licensed Lord of the Rings line; more specifically geared towards The Hobbit.
The Lego Group has a truly unique offering this year; a Lego Build a Bilbo promotion. You are given part of a Bilbo Baggins minifg, and a map. You must then hunt down the other pieces to build your very own Lego Bilbo! Love it!
To learn more, and see pictures of Bilbo, head over to FBTB.net.
If one of my readers could snag one for me, I’d love you forever. And ever!
I am an Adult Fan of LEGO (AFOL) and an active member of the Michigan LEGO User Group (MichLUG). I have loved LEGO for as long as I can remember. I am currently working on the following models:
– UCS Millenium Falcon
– Emmett’s Apartment Building
– Gringott’s Bank
It sounded like a great booth this year. I’m in San Diego but didn’t go. I’ve only been once but it was over a decade ago. I don’t know if I want to deal with the crowds, but I know it’s a lot of fun.
I’d love to go next year. Seems like Lego has a bigger and better presence every year, and they had so many sweet #SDCC exclusive minifigs.
