Mixels[]
LEGO has had a larger and larger presence at Comic-Con every year, showcasing their newest sets, putting them up for sale, and having contests. Every year, there are several free giveaways, usually a promotional brick, keychain, or minifigure.
2013 (Series 1)
2014 (Series 4)
2015 (Series 7)
As a result, the Mixels franchise has appeared at the convention in big ways.
In 2013, the first sets of Flain, Seismo, and Volectro were shown, as well as the theme being officially announced. Also, a free information sheet was given out. The sheet has images of the three announced at the event.
In 2014, Series 4 was announced, and the first sets of Nurp-Naut, Burnard, and Globert were shown. Series 3 sets, to be released the next month, were also displayed.
In 2015, Mixels was not scheduled for any reveals, but the first sets of Kuffs, Camillot, and Jamzy from Series 7 were unexpectedly shown.
In 2016, Mixels did not make any known appearances at the convention.
Mission Statement[]
