will release on Wii U, PlayStation 3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One:

A small sample of packs available in 2015 include the Back to the Future Level Pack with a LEGO Marty McFly minifigure, a Lego Ninjago Team Pack with Kai and Cole minifigures, three Ninjago Fun Packs with Jay, Nya and Zane minifigures, two DC Comics Fun Packs with Wonder Woman and Cyborg minifigures, three The Lord of the Rings Fun Packs with Lego Gollum, Lego Gimli and Lego Legolas minifigures, four The Lego Movie Fun packs with Emmet, Bad Cop, Benny and Unikitty characters, and a The Wizard of Oz Fun Pack with a Lego Wicked Witch of the West minifigure.

Additional packs to round out the 2015 assortment will be announced in the months leading to launch. Further waves of expansion packs will be released regularly following the launch of the game and into 2016.

Future expansion pack purchases will continue to work with the Starter Pack, even in the fall of next year. No compatibility chart necessary.

The game's Starter Pack contains a copy of the game, the Lego Toy Pad (for interacting with the NFC toys), three minifigures (Batman, Gandalf from Lord of the Rings, Wyldstyle from The Lego Movie), some bricks and a Lego Batmobile vehicle. The game launches on September 29th.

Wizard of Oz figures is pretty cool and pretty damn random.

So I guess they'll probably get Harry Potter and Jurassic Park down the line?

No to Star Wars though I guess, that's going to be Disney Infinity.

Here's a leaked trailer:

I enjoy the LEGO games, but I don't think I can afford to get into another NFC toy series. For serious collectors, the costs are prohibitive.

They might get Star Wars too, the Lego Dimensions and Disney Infinity figurines are different enough that I don't think they will compete with one another.

no.  it is lego equilant of skylanders..

I wonder if their will be any other big NFC, toys-to-life games. We not have Skylanders for Activision, Disney Infinity from Disney, Amiibo from Nintendo and now Lego Dimensions from Warner Bros. I assume EA and Ubisoft want to get in on the action but I can't think of any ways they could implement it.

Activision and Skylanders got the ball rolling and Disney/Nintendo/Lego have to brand recognition and huge lineup of characters to make it work but EA/Ubisoft don't so I can't really see them taking off.

I don't think Disney will allow it. 

Star Wars Disney Infinity is going to be a huge thing basically on its own and will be the trump card of Disney Infinity 3 with The Force Awakens releasing this holiday. 

Still there are plenty of IP for LEGO to get. Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, Ghostbusters, Simpsons (!), more DC characters, etc.
