LEGO Dimensions still hasn’t released a number of previously-announced packs, including content based on The Powerpuff Girls. Despite the lack of updates since the initial news was shared several months ago, Warner Bros. and TT Games haven’t ditched their original plans.
First details about upcoming LEGO Dimensions packs based on The Powerpuff Girls were made known when Cartoon Network announced its 2017-18 lineup this week. Two different products are planned. Along with a Team Pack, a new Fun Pack is lined up as well.
The Team Pack will Blossom and Bubbles minifigures while the Fun Pack has Buttercup. Both let players fly around in the Townsville Hub, featuring Pokey Oaks elementary, City Hall, Rainbow Land, the Pickle Museum, and Professor Utonium’s lab.
A release date for The Powerpuff Girls packs wasn’t mentioned. However, it looks like new LEGO Dimensions packs will begin to ship in May.
