. The important facts:

The latest LEGO Dimensions trailer introduces the crime-stopping trio, Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup, as they lend their dynamic powers to the game in LEGO form for the upcoming Team and Fun Packs. With these new packs, players will be able to build the sugar-coated, Chemical X superheroes and launch them into the LEGO Dimensions Multiverse to save the day. In the game, players can fly around and use ultra-super powers to fight crime and battle the forces of evil, visit the exclusive Adventure World to unlock iconic locations like Pokey Oaks elementary, Rainbow Land, and Professor Utonium's lab, and also go head-to-head in the Battle Arena for endless fun! The LEGO Dimensions Powerpuff Girls Team Pack and Fun Pack will be available on Sept. 12, 2017.

They appear to be using new dialogue rather than stock dialogue from the (terrible) reboot. Seems to be a plus. Second I get that team pack I am rebuilding that smartphone into the old style phone from the original PPG. The fact they make reference to the line "fighting crime and the forces of evil" (something that I don't believe has occurred in this reboot seeing as their is any barely any crime fighting) gives me hope that this will be based more on the original/good series.

Okay... Can we get some classics themes for this game eventually LEGO? Like Powerpuff Girls is good and all, especially since from what I read it isn't based off of the awful reboot, but I do not understand why we haven't gotten a BIONICLE pack since that's aparently a well loved theme of LEGO's. Also a Classic Space Theme pack, and Knight's Kingdom 1 and 2 packs would be cool to see in the future. But that's just my two cents.

It's unsurprising that the game focuses on current themes and popular licensed properties. The market for nostalgic Lego fans is tiny compared to the market for packs based on current themes or classic and modern movies and TV series. Newly licensed franchises in particular have the benefit of attracting fans of those franchises who might not have otherwise been interested in buying a Lego video game or standard Lego sets.

 

I mean, as much as I would have loved to get Bionicle packs (along with other original themes like Elves or Nexo Knights), if the actual 2015–2016 Bionicle sets weren't successful enough to sustain the theme it's silly to think Dimensions packs would have enjoyed greater success.
