E3 brought a lot of new information regarding the new Lego Dimensions packs that will be available for Year 2! With the addition of an all new pack, mixed with 16 new franchises we have a lot to look forward to! Here is everything we’ve put together from the live streams about what new packs are coming and when. Nothing is officially confirmed beyond what we’ve seen listed on Amazon but we are taking clues from the live streams and chats to put this info together. WE’VE UPDATED THIS LIST! VISIT US HERE TO GET THE LATEST INFO! Each story pack will focus on new levels and experiences that will allow you to replay the stories of some of your favorite movies. Each pack is said to contain six full levels of gameplay that will retell the plot of the movie franchises. The story packs will include a new dressing for your portal, allowing you to remove the old round blue and grey portal and replace it with something specifically themed for the franchise. You’ll also get a new minifigure and vehicle!
The packs will retail for $49.99! Ghostbusters (2016) – Wave 2.1 (Sept 2016 Release) Minifigure: Abby Yates – Unlocks all Ghostbusters as playable characters. Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them – Wave 2.2 (Nov 2016 Release) Lego Batman Movie – Wave 2.3 (Jan 2017 Release) Minifigure: Lego Movie Batman Level packs will function the same way they did in Year 1 but with twice the goodness.

You've probably heard of LEGO Dimensions, LEGO's take on the games with toys craze. It hits stores on September 27, and features blocky renditions of characters from The Lord of the Rings (Gimli, Legolas), DC Comics (Wonder Woman, Cyborg), Back To The Future (Marty McFly), and LEGO's own LEGO Movie (Bad Cop, Unikitty), among others. Between the Starter Pack and numerous Fun Packs (a character with a vehicle or gadget), Level Packs (character with a vehicle, a gadget, and an in-game level), and Team Packs (two characters and two vehicles), LEGO Dimensions will have 17 unique packages available at launch. Just how much will all of that run you, if you're the type that has to have it all? The grand total comes to $334.85. And that's without tax. Obviously there's no need to go all in like that. Everything you need to play the game comes in comes in the $100 LEGO Dimensions Starter Pack, which has a pretty great starting lineup in the form of Batman, Gandalf, and Wyldstyle. For comparison, Activision's Skylanders hit store shelves in October of 2011 with around $230 worth of gear, between the starter set, triple character packs, and characters that were only sold individually.
Nintendo's first wave of Amiibo debuted with twelve figures at $13 each for a total of $156. Of course, hundreds of dollars worth of amiibo and Skylanders figures have been released since launch.
