If there was any question of whether or not LEGO was serious about “winning” San Diego Comic Con 2014, that question has been answered by the latest LEGO SDCC 2014 news! When word broke that the plot of the LEGO Batman 3 video game had to do with Batman going into space and dealing with Sinestro and the various Lantern Corps, it seemed like only a matter of time until a LEGO Green Lantern minifigure made his debut. That time… is now! Coming to stores in 2015–LEGO Green Lantern vs. Sinestro 76025!

It feels like (and it legitimately might be) every time I post an image or article about an upcoming LEGO DC Super Heroes set, someone messages me or replies with “When are we gonna get a LEGO Green Lantern minifigure!” My response to that question has always been “I don’t know!”, but that all changed this afternoon.

Because, for the first time, I actually do know–the first-ever Green Lantern LEGO Minifigure is coming in January 2015! And with that, LEGO has won the 2014 Comic Con (or at least, that’s how I feel at this moment in time).

With the release of this LEGO Hal Jordan Green Lantern minifigure, the core seven members of the LEGO Justice League is now finally complete! And given Green Lantern’s awesome cameos in The LEGO Movie, I have a feeling that this Green Lantern LEGO figure will even be in-demand by a lot of LEGO fans who don’t even like comic book characters usually!

Sinestro is easily my favorite DC Comics supervillain (and one of my favorite villains from any story, period), so I am ecstatic to see a LEGO Sinestro minifigure make its debut! Sinestro alone puts this set right at the top of my LEGO January 2015 wish list! I love his translucent yellow “fear” construct ax, and Sinestro’s moustache looks super-funny in LEGO form.

One of the weirdest-looking LEGO Batman minifigures yet will also come with this set. If I hadn’t seen the artwork for the LEGO Batman 3 video game, I would have no idea that this was a Space Batman LEGO Minifigure, but that’s what it is. I like my Arctic Batman minifigure better at the moment, but I’m sure I’ll love this version of Batman after I play through LEGO Batman 3 this fall!

The Winter 2015 LEGO Batman Green Lantern vs. Sinestro 76025 set is the second 2015 LEGO set to be announced, as LEGO earlier officially announced the 2015 LEGO Star Wars Rebels Wookie Gunship. That set was sort of neat and all, but I think it will be pretty unanimously agreed-upon that this set absolutely blows LEGO Wookie Gunship out of the water (or air, as the case may be)!

The 76025 LEGO Batman Green Lantern vs. Sinestro set is part of the LEGO Winter 2015 DC Superheores wave of sets, and should hit stores in late December 2014/early 2015 for a retail price of $19.99. I’ll continue to post photos and announcements throughout the year as the rest of the LEGO 2015 sets are announced, and you can ‘Like’ Bricks and Bloks on Facebook to have news and images sent right to your Facebook Newsfeed!

How do you like the second LEGO 2015 set announced, LEGO collectors? Does this LEGO Batman 3 set with Green Lantern and Sinestro have you counting down the days until 2015, or do the first-ever LEGO Green and Yellow Lanterns fail to get your blood pumping?
