It’s the weirdest thing. My kids are LEGO fiends, but they don’t play this game at all:
They’ll play the other LEGO video games, but not LEGO Dimensions. The oldest prefers Disney Infinity and the youngest mostly just noodles along with one game or another and never advances on the story. Honestly, my wife is more likely to define our purchases of new Dimensions stuff at this point. Go figure, huh?
A*Team. Gremlins. GOONIES. HARRY POTTER. ADVENTURE TIME!!!!

I’m so getting this pack.
I still need to pick up Ghostbusters and the Midway pack for the current rev too…
Wait, I missed:
Mission: Impossible, E.T, and SONIC THE HEDGEHOG somehow!
Lego Dimensions is pretty accurately targeted at vacuuming up those sweet, sweet nostalgia dollars from various segments of aging (and perhaps not so aging) adults. Lots of that source material dates back to the 80s or even earlier.

From what I’ve seen, they’re full of stuff (Doc Brown and Marty McFly, the 70s Wonder Woman music cue, Ghost Busters, HAL 9000) that little kids just aren’t gonna get.
