Here's a Look at Dr. Who in LEGO Dimensions

LEGO Peter Capaldi is pretty great but I'd be way more into this if it was IN THE LOOP Peter Capaldi.

Oh absolutely.

LEGO Peter Capaldi is pretty great but I'd be way more into this if it was In the Loop Peter Capaldi.

For reference:

Or my personal favourite from The Thick of It (show that spawned In The Loop:

In The Loop Peter Capaldi isn't that different, really.

the thick of it peter capaldi is even better

Dammit, I don't want to get suckered into this, but they're making it real hard not to.

In before the "His name isn't Doctor Who, and Doctor is never abbreviated!!!" corrections.

Finally, I can have the Doctor run around through time with Doc Brown.

I can only dream that Lego would secure the rights for Bill & Ted, then I could have multiple time travelers using multiple phone booths.

Things like this make me want to play Lego Dimensions but I don't know if I want to be suckered into one of those "toys-to-life" games all the cool kids are talking about. I'm torn.

Same here, I am loving everything I see but I'm not planning on spending money on tiny lego dudes.

The one about the fucking space hairdresser and the cowboy. He's got a tinfoil pal and a pedal bin. His father's a robot and he's fucking fucked his sister. Lego. They're all made of fucking lego.

Batman and Gandalf in the T.A.R.D.I.S. Sold.

But what about WHO Dr., Peter Capaldi?

Well, looks like I need to buy this game now.

What is Homer doing in an Aperture test chamber?

What about the possiblitly of playing as the more superior Jack Harkness?

Ok, you got me lego dimensions. I'd play the hell out of a lego doctor who game.

This reminds of old show dead ringer

Great to see Doctor Who being used for something.

Ditto. I want to buy this, but it's a lot of money. I've played and enjoyed Skylanders and Disney Infinity(I wasn't the purchaser on those, except for a couple figures that I liked). From what I've seen Lego Dimensions is even more expensive than those, but Batman, Portal, Back to the Future, Doctor Who...I want them all.

Even if this thing makes 0 dollars, the fact that Lego Men in Tom Baker's image exist kind of makes the whole enterprise worthwhile. Seriously, what the hell is going on? And who's next? Oh Christ, Looney Tunes is next.

I don't think anyone could top that show without Capaldi.

The Thick of It is the best comedy of the last 15 years. Discuss.

I can't wrap my head around this game, this is some Tumblr level of crossover. If it weren't for the fact it's a skylanders clone I'd be all over this.

If the Doctor manages to explain things where all this lego stuff actually fits within Doctor Who continuity, I will laugh my ass off.

Yeah. Him and Doc Brown. Someone on the dev team was thinking right.

The Thick of It, in my Giant Bomb? Alex, you're alright.

Dalek voices always makes me happy. Could've used some Delia Derbyshire music though.

Also:

Great, now I super wanna play this and won't, because it's a toys to life game.

This trailer made me go from "whatever" to "oh shit!" to "oh, right..." faster than I could have ever imagined.

Unless children have gotten way more into Doctor Who overnight (or always have been way more into it than I was ever aware), the fact that they've made a starter pack out of this franchise, makes LEGO Dimensions seem squarely targeted at (also) not-kids in a surprising way.

If this is the only starter pack, or at least the biggest one (that portal looks big), this is... strange.

@snail: well it is a kids show. Its probably not big with kids in the states, but in the UK and Australia its mostly targeted at the children's demographic
