Just like last year, LEGO is giving fans around the world an opportunity to win some of the highly coveted exclusive sets and minifigures that are being given away/sold at San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) 2015.
“Never tell me the odds!”
This year, LEGO have expanded the sets that they’re giving out on Twitter to also include the retail exclusive sets like the Dagobah Mini Build, Superman Action Comics #1 and Throne of Ultron Sets. Last year, they only gave out exclusive minifigs, so it’s definitely a nice gesture from LEGO for those of us who aren’t able to be there at SDCC.
The competition is open to all LEGO fans worldwide, but you will need a Twitter account to join in. To be in the running, all you have to do is Retweet (RT) designated competition tweets from @LEGO_Group during the competition period. Oh, and obviously, you’ll need to follow @LEGO_Group on Twitter as well.
Oh and since you’re on Twitter, why not follow me (@jayong28) while you’re at it 😉
The Twitter competition runs from 12.01 AM 10 July – 4.59 AM 13 July. All times in AEST.
What can you win? A total of 46 prizes will be given away in total. Good news is that the exclusive minifigs are the most numerous, which is a great thing since those are the ones I’m gunning for!
There’ll be two giveaways each day, and on the last day there’s some sort of Bionicle Grand Prize Pack. No idea what that is for now, but I’m guessing it’s all the 2015 Bionicles.
Currently, there are 2 giveaways that are live. Here’s a list of links to the giveaway tweets if you want to enter. Watch this space, I’ll be updating this as the giveaways go live.
UPDATE: Here are the giveaway tweets to win the Sam Wilson Captain America and Throne of Ultron set!

Hi Jay, thanks to your information, I’m entered the contest and win one of the Sam Wilson minifig. It was awesome 🙂
Oh wow really, that’s amazing! Congratulations! I’m so jealous but super glad that one of my readers won it!
Such a bummer I missed these! Just joined Twitter for my website this morning and would have loved a chance to win one of the Superman sets.
You and me both. Luckily it won’t be that difficult to replicate the set!
I would love to own just one of the SDCC minifigs they’ve released over the years.
Me too! If only they weren’t so expensive on Ebay
So THAT’s what the mask looks like. Looks awesome, and highly radioactive. I WANT IT NOW
Haha go and join. I hope you win it!
Well, see, that feeling is the same one for the SDCC Tahu and Inside Tour Gali masks. So, yeah.
But I don’t have Twitter 🙁 I might join later, but not right now, not interested. 🙁
