New Lego Monsters are coming

[Monsterfink]

Reports out of the UK Toyfair state a new monster-centric Lego line is coming this year but reports are mixed as to wether this is a Universal Monster official line or a line inspired by the famous monsters called Lego Monster Hunters. Either way I'll be buying them....and the Lego Hulk.

I would say going by the Frankenstein look, it is not licensed but still kinda cool.

Uh-oh!  Does that mean these are "garage" Legos!??

[Monsterfink]

Latest news is it is original takes on the monsters under the "Monster Fighters" line

I don't care if they're licensed; that wolfman is cool.

Some more info on this line........................

Right now the 2012 Toyfair is happening in London, England. While the domestic convention won't happen for about three more weeks there's still the promise of exciting news coming from this convention across the pond.

Not a lot has come out thus far, but the biggest players right now are LEGO revealing their planned sets for Marvel, Lord of the Rings, and the more appropriate "Monster Fighters series".  The series focuses on a group of Ghostbuster-esque "Monster Fighters" going head-to-head against some of the classic (but not offically Universal) monsters!

The list of confirmed sets includes Werewolf, Frankenstein monster with the Doctor, Dracula with his bride, Swamp Monster, Mummy with skeletal horse, and a Ghost train.

Each set will include a different "Monster Fighter" going up against said monsters.

I have 2 different LEGO Frankensteins, and a vampire that looks like that one, but Oooooooh- that Wolfman is fantastic!
I hope they market that LEGO Wolfie!

That werewolf is pretty cool. But not as cool as this wolfman...



Just saying...

[werewolfwoman]

ooh cool,  i have a little collection of block werewolf/wolfman figures and would love to add another wolfie to the lot

The Mini Figs they released in blind packs over the last year looked better than these new ones.
