Almost all the Black Friday ads for 2016 are here and we can now compile a master list of all the awesome savings you can expect to find as your adventure out and brave the crowds. Toys R Us is our favorite this year for its wide selection of discounts but Best Buy’s less than descriptive Black Friday ad may prove to offer some great deals once they’ve been posted. We are seeing a ton of deals on Starter Packs, mostly around $39.99, so use this opportunity to grab a Supergirl if you don’t already have her! If you’re looking for your chance at a Green Arrow figure, you’re in luck! Purchase any Lego Dimensions product at Game Stop on Black Friday and grab a free Green Arrow figure! You could even double down and get both Super Girl AND Green Arrow for only $39.99! Starter Packs: $50 Off ($39.99) Toys R Us is offering up a bunch of great Lego Dimensions Black Friday Sales! These sales represent a sort of combined “best of” from their previous sales.
Some great prices, especially for anyone searching for the exclusive Jay from Year 1 and Marceline for Year 2! Starter Packs: $50 Off ($29.99 – $39.99) Level Packs & Team Packs: 50% Off ($12.49 – $14.99) Fun Packs: $3 for $20 ($6.66 Ea.) Walmart’s Lego Dimensions Black Friday Sales are a little lighter than Toys R Us but not by much. They’re combining the two similarly priced packs into one sale, and offering up the Starter Pack for a nice cheap price across all platforms! Level & Team Packs: $14.00 Best Buy’s Lego Dimension Black Friday Sales are a little cryptic in their ad. They promise up to 55% off the various packs, but don’t give a break down on what deals they will be offering for which pack. They small info button at the top of the deal does mention that it will be a minimum savings of 33% but thats all we got. Story, Level, Team & Fun Packs: 33% – 55% off Sidenote: Your Gamer’s Club Unlocked discount cannot be stacked during this time.
Once we get the official word on the prices, time some time to do some apples to apples comparison of past sales and see if it’s better to wait for the next Best Buy Lego Dimensions sale where you can use that extra 20%. Target’s Lego Dinensions Black Friday Sales are less than impressive this year, matching some of the other retailers cheap starter pack (that we’ve already seen plenty this year). Fun Packs, Level Packs, Story Packs: Down to $10.00 Note: the image says all three pack types are on sale. If Story Packs are actually $10, though, this deal will be insane. It’s almost hard to believe. It’s most likely Fun Packs will be $10, and the other two pack types will be at an unspecified price. Want More Lego Dimensions News?

Have you entered our latest giveaway?Lego has said it is reversing its policy on bulk purchases and will no longer ask customers what they want to use the bricks for.
The U-turn follows a recent controversy involving Chinese artist Ai Weiwei.In October last year, Ai accused Lego of censorship when it refused to sell its bricks directly to him.The company said its policy was to reject requests if it believed the bricks would be used to make a political statement.Ai is known for his criticism of the Chinese government as well as for being one of the world's leading contemporary artists. He wanted the bricks for an artwork on political dissidents. The artist ended up using "fake" bricks donated to him by the public for an exhibition in Melbourne, Australia.Ai appeared to react to Lego's decision on Wednesday by posting a picture on Instagram of a young boy sticking bricks onto his face, accompanied by a grinning emoji caption. When Lego first refused to sell a bulk order of plastic bricks to Ai Weiwei in September, he's thought to have kept the news to himself. But a few weeks later, the announcement that a new Legoland theme park would open in Shanghai led the artist to reveal Lego's decision to stay away from projects that had a "political agenda".
It was a surprising decision by Lego. After all, Ai Weiwei had used Lego before. He created a series of portraits of political dissidents that appeared at an exhibition in Alcatraz prison in 2014. Back in October, the artist tied Lego's financial interests in China with its decision to refuse his order. His accusation has some merit: KIRKBI, the private Danish company that owns the Lego brand also owns a significant amount of shares in Merlin Entertainment, the British company that operates Legolands around the world.China is Lego's fastest growing market and the company wouldn't want to irritate Beijing. However, as Lego might attest, few would want to battle the feisty Ai Weiwei. In a statement posted on its website on Tuesday, Lego said it used to ask customers ordering bulk purchases for the "thematic purpose" of their project, as it did not want to "actively support or endorse specific agendas"."However, those guidelines could result in misunderstandings or be perceived as inconsistent, and the Lego Group has therefore adjusted the guidelines for sales of Lego bricks in very large quantities," it said.
