It seems quite likely that Sonic will be joining the lineup, but we will know for sure on Thursday.When it comes to rings, you don't get in Gollum's way. Unless you're the new guy on the block! Find out who's headed to Lego Dimensions this Thursday.
Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
It's been rumored for a while that Sonic might be coming to Lego Dimensions. Yesterday the Lego team posted a new trailer, which had an interesting description:

- Mission Impossible
- The A-Team

Gotta say, Sonic doesn't look too bad as a minifigure!

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
Dimensions is cool, but I'm honestly more excited about the possibility of this leading to official Sonic Lego sets.
Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
In such an event, it will have been nice knowing my disposable income. Calling hours for my bank account balance will be held on the date of release of such possible Lego sets.Frieza2000 wrote:.....possibility of this leading to official Sonic Lego sets.

Who needs Sonic in Project X Zone when he can hang out with Mr.T and Sloth?

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
This is both likely and highly UNlikely at the same time. Portal, The Wizard of Oz, and Midway all have a presence in Dimensions, but no proper LEGO sets--not even as internet-backed fan-voted LEGO Ideas single sets like Doctor Who and Ghostbusters.Frieza2000 wrote:Dimensions is cool, but I'm honestly more excited about the possibility of this leading to official Sonic Lego sets.
Not that it wouldn't be really awesome or anything!

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
Does Traveller's Tales still develop Lego games? This could be the first time in 19 years they made a game with Sonic in it. Neat!

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
Yeah, they develop all the LEGO games, and WB Games publishes them (and forces them to develop DLC/season passes).Dr. BUGMAN wrote:Does Traveller's Tales still develop Lego games?

So, these were just posted to Twitter..

Sonic looks great, even comes with a ring. I hope we get some official Lego sets in the future.

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
Apparently that tweet was deleted?
Plenty of people grabbed it already, though.

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
Since the ring can obviously be held in a Lego hand as-is, I can only think of one reason why they'd attach a dot to it like that.
So they can have 'floating' rings in official Sonic Lego sets!

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
The trailer dropped for Sonic in Dimensions, and WOW IT'S WAY MORE THAN I COULD HAVE HOPED. Being a Level Pack was the best possible outcome.

Gauntlet is a hella obscure thing to throw in. Do kids even know what Gauntlet is? I mean, it's clear they're aware of their very broad audience, but, huh!
Now I'm wondering what that top down racer is. Can't be micro machines, surely

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
I'm guessing it's from the Midway Arcade Level Pack, like with Gauntlet; one of that pack's features was playing LEGO-fied versions of classic arcade games like Rampage.
Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
I actually think this was the most interesting reveal of the night. A 3d Sonic game where you can explore, and aren't confined to one straight path, and don't rely on boosting.
Being able to play as Sonic and enter the worlds of The Simpsons, Adventure Time and Ghostbusters sounds crazy fun.

Chris will finally be able to make Sonichu Lego collages with a little yellow acrylic paint and welfare money.

Actually Sonic's "ring" is a flotation device. It's an existing part that has always had that stud. It's also been used in green as greebling for Lex Luthor's kryptonite blaster.

You can now have Aquaman, Krusty the clown and Shadow the hedgehog working together in the same scene. Because you wanted it.
Also, Big the cat is still alive after his last appearance in... what, Sonic Heroes?

I have no idea if this is real or not, but I applaud whoever came up with it.

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
The whole story.
Most interesting bit: 16-bit Sonic 2's Mecha Sonic seems to have been officially named Robo Sonic. Maybe this'll finally put to rest that incorrect "fact" that he's named Silver Sonic like 8-Bit Sonic 2.
My favorite bits: Tails' StF Workshop! I always liked that logo the most! And Knuckles swiping that firearm from Shadow. Also SA1/Prince reference. hahaha

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
Am I the only one who feels rather...put-off by the odd lack of ACTUAL Sonic music for the Genesis-era areas? They got the proper music for everything else, what was stopping them from being able to use all of it?

Re: Possible Sonic Lego Dimensions Cross Over
Masato Nakamura strikes again, I reckon. I was expecting Flickies' Island and R music, myself--y'know, some acknowledgement of Traveller's Tales history with the series. Would've been preferable to the store brand renditions, at any rate.
