Lego BrickHeadz 2018 - Rumors & Discussion

Recommended Posts

Any chance we may hear of any other BrickHeadz sets for this year? Particularly, I'm wondering if Lego would want to throw their hat into the ring with the theme for the Christmas release of Mary Poppins Returns

So according to @Azani 41624 and 41625 are mickey and minny mouse brickheadz each selling for 10$

Ah, interesting. These Disney BrickHeadz are starting to interest me more than other franchises covered by the theme, maybe save for those upcoming Doc and Marty sets.

I think Brickheadz are a great way to do many more Doctors Lego couldn't do because of the ideas set being pretty small... I would LOVE to get a Tenth Doctor in Lego form! But then again Jodie is probably more likely as she is the current Doctor

Yeah, due to the cheaper price of Brickheadz compared to other sets they could also get away with some of the less popular Doctors too.

Is there a listing or database of Brickheadz that uses the release number in the lower-right corner of the boxes? I'm not talking about the normal LEGO set number. For example, the season bee set has a release number of 29.

There were some releases that didn't have this release number so I wanted to see if these sets are skipped or included in the numbering order.

I found the info I needed from here: https://www.coleka.com/en/lego/lego-brickheadz_r580 and other sources to make this list:

40 - Han Solo
39 - Chewbacca
38 - Gamora
37 - Star Lord
36 - Thanos
35 - Iron Man MK50
34 - Mrs Claus
33- Mr Claus
32 - Turkey
31 - Witch
30 - Easter Bunny
29 - Valentine's Bee
27 & 28 - Boba Fett & Han Solo in Carbonite
26 - Kylo Ren
25 - Rey
24 - Cyborg
23 - Aquaman
22 - Wonder Woman
21 - The Flash
20 - Captain Phasma
19 - Finn
18 - Master Wu
17 - Lloyd
15 & 16 - Spider-Man & Venom
13 & 14 - Supergirl & Martian Manhunter
12 - Beast
11 - Belle
10 - Captain Armando Salazar
09 - Captain Jack Sparrow
08 - The Hulk
07 - Black Widow
06 - Iron Man
05 - Captain America
04 - The Joker
03 - Robin
02 - Batgirl
01 - Batman
XX - Black Panther & Doctor Strange
XX - Iron Man & Captain America
XX - Batman & The Joker
XX - Superman & Wonder Woman

So the four SDCC brickheadz-preview double sets are not included in the numbering system, but the 3 following SDCC double sets are. It just seems so weird that LEGO would make the release number so prominent on the packaging and yet offer no online/offline way to look at the collection. If you go to the LEGO brickheadz site, it'll just show the latest 8 sets with DC and Star Wars. Won't the general public wonder why they can never find release 13 - 16 and 27 - 28? Why even make the SDCC sets a part of the same release numbering system if almost no one can get them?

The general public doesn't even notice. They look at what they see in the store and buy it or not. The numbering is for collectors that either buy the sets second-hand to be complete, rebrick them or just leave them out, but knowing what they are.

My list goes up to 40 ;)

The ridiculously quick mothballing/retirement of Phasma (20) and the general convention exclusives farce that leaves all but the most persistent collectors frustrated (god I wish I didn't love Frozen Han 28), has left a bit of a bad taste. Suspect I'm not the only one who has lost interest in the line purely as a result of TLG's questionable marketing decisions.

This should have been like Funko Pops, using smaller or more obscure licenses. Back to the Future Brickheadz are a start in the right direction, but it feels like too little too late.

I really wish Lego would take a different approach to convention exclusives. Choosing the truly excellent and highly desirable Boba/Han for SDCC and then releasing lackluster Brickheadz like Finn and Phasma as general releases was infuriating for fans and probably a stupid business decision, given how well Boba/Han would have sold at retail.

Exclusives are a fact of life and we all have to deal with them. But it would nice if Lego could limit them to either special packaging or minimally "enhanced" versions of existing builds that are reasonably easy to replicate for those who can't attend the shows or afford the exclusives at aftermarket prices.

The Han/Luke Detention Block Rescue was a great example of an exclusive done right. Wish Lego would follow that model moving forward.

Just so y'all know, I was mistaken about the relevant licnese/subtheme behind 41613. It's not a JWFK kit, despite the fact that it's releasing in April; it'll be connected to a differing IP. Looks like the codename for 41614 threw me off.

Doctor Who to tie-in with the first female Doctor?

No, sorry. :)

I can't say what it is at the moment, but it's another IP that we've never seen a Brickheadz tie-in for, and one that I frankly never expected.

Something we've seen before in LEGO Dimensions perhaps?

Actually, as bizarre as it is, no. :) It's been in LEGO, though.

No further comment on this one until TLG announces it.

Hmm, interesting. Should we expect an announcement soon?

Hey, it would be really cool if it turned out to be Indiana Jones. :purrr:

Oh this makes me excited! I’d love for it to be a crazy choice like Avatar or Friends. Please don’t be something lame like The Big Bang Theory :hmpf_bad:

Well that's stupid. Doctor Who is the one that would make the most sense, with the first female Doctor.

My guess is that it'll be something milked from LEGO's existing relationship with Disney. From that, they already got Marvel and Star Wars, so only major thing left is the core disney animation IP. So perhaps something like Mickey Mouse or characters from The Incredibles.
