LEGO Stranger Things at San Diego Comic Con sees designer signing and long lines
The LEGO Group has been celebrating Stranger Things at San Diego Comic Con with a designer signing and a very limited minifigure.
LEGO Stranger Things launched this year with 75810 The Upside Down and with San Diego Comic Con being the perfect place to connect with fans of the series, the LEGO Group has been pushing the new exclusive set at the event. Beyond the Brick is at the event covering all of the LEGO goings-on.
Senior Model Designer Justin Ramsden has been signing for fans at the show, appearing at the LEGO booth on both Friday and Saturday.
An exclusive LEGO Stranger Things minifigure, Barb, has been available at the event. To get the minifigure, fans had to join a line that lasted for hours in order to potentially get one – a piece of software would then select at random whether each person would receive a free minifigure or not.
