Comic-Con giveaway, sculptures

Alright, as much as I dislike the exclusive giveaways since most of us will never get them, if you are at Comic-Con I certainly want you to get all four figures. From FBTB, here are the instructions to get a fig.
- Starting at 11:30am everyday, you can visit the booth to get your badge scanned AND pick up a ticket. Badge scanning will last as long as they have tickets. You can only scan your badge once and get only one ticket, thus ensuring that the number of figs falls into the most number of hands as possible.
- You can scan your badge once a day for each figure. Trying to get your badge scanned more than once will throw and error and you will be denied.
- Starting at 3:30pm, visit LEGORaffle.com to see if you’re a winner based on your ticket number. If you have a winning ticket, swing by the booth and pick up your shiny new precious.
- The following list is the schedule of which minifig will be given away on which day, and the quantity of each figure available:
Thursday – Spider-Woman, 350
Friday – Amazing Spider-Man, 350
Saturday – Black Suit Superman, 200
Sunday – Green Arrow, 200
For the rest of us, here are some full images from the LEGO booth of Superman and Iron Man sculptures, and another of the Turtles:





And these three sculptures are outside. I assume these are official LEGO displays, but maybe not.

Mall of America Fan Appreciation Show

If you can't get to Comic-Con, you may be able to get to the Mall of America Fan Appreciation Show Mall of America Fan Appreciation Show. This happened this past weekend - I have no idea how long the models will be on display. There was a large Turtles sculpture built by master builder Dan Steininger, another Turtles sculpture built on the spot with crowd participation, and also some MOCs, including a Bane mask by someone, and a Turtles mosaic and a Batman building by Amanda Fuek.

Turtles, official stuff

Ah, LEGO, I can't stay mad forever. I still think you do us wrong, but I'll relent for now (I know, you were scared there for a bit, weren't you?). Here are some of the official releases and displays related to the Turtles theme. A lot of this is probably review if you read LEGO blogs, but I'd like to put it all in one place.

Lucky NYCC invited guests got an exclusive Pizza slice promo:


Arriving at NYCC, you initially saw some covered signage and an inviting blank LEGO wall:


Eventually the cover was removed and the rumors and speculation were confirmed, it was an official LEGO TMNT theme:


And what about that blank LEGO wall? Attendees could construct small mosaic sections:


As these got added to the wall, an image soon appeared:


Over the course of NYCC, the final picture was revealed:


As you know, LEGO showed off the first set of the line, 79104, Shellraiser Street Chase:


They also showed off the figs:


They also had two giveaways associated with NYCC. Darkdragon scored a black turtle as part of a raffle at the NYCC site:


Ultron32 somehow got three of these and two of the Krang figs that were given out at a nearby LEGO Store:


Since NYCC, photos of two other sets have shown up online. In addition, Brickset two additional sets, Kraang Lab Escape and Shredder's Dragon Bike.

The two other sets with pictures are 79102, Stealth Shell in Pursuit:


and 79103, Turtle Lair Attack:


Okay, that's it for Turtle news for now.
