SDCC 12 Exclusive Marvel & DC Universe LEGO Mini Figures

San Diego Comic-Con 2012 Exclusive Marvel & DC Universe LEGO Mini Figures - Shazam (aka Captain Marvel & Venom

Once again LEGO will be at San Diego Comic-Con giving away FREE mini figures!!!! This year, however, it’ll be super hero and villain mini figures from both the Marvel and DC Comics universes! Today (while supplies last) LEGO will be giving away 1,000 mini figures of Marvel’s Phoenix and Venom, and DC’s Shazam (the former Captain Marvel) and Bizarro. All four figures look great, and these are going to FAST!

San Diego Comic-Con 2012 Exclusive Marvel & DC Universe LEGO Mini Figures - Good Phoenix (aka Jean Grey) & Bizarro

I think it’s great LEGO does this every year at SDCC now, but this last bit of news is kind of annoying due to how rare these figures are (and how expensive they will be on the secondary market). According to LEGO, these figures will not be included in any future sets. Now does that mean we won’t ever see a Jean Grey as the Dark Phoenix mini figure down the road? Probably not, but if you do want a “good” Phoenix or a Shazam LEGO mini figure then you’d better get in touch with someone at Comic-Con STAT! Speaking of which, if anyone grabs an extra Shazam/Captain Marvel LEGO mini figure…hook a brother up!
