At the Singapore launch they have some custom made base for every Brickheadz, looks like a great add-on.

Original announcement:

Preordering the full 12 sets will get you the free special stand.

If anyone got a hold of that, care to share the build?

A fellow AFOL posted the parts list for the free display gallery (which was designed here). Looks like there's a lot of big white parts!

^ Thanks for that @Recce - I'm not sure that's the whole parts list though, there must be some round flat pieces that go directly under the yellow circles at the front of each base. Sorry, I don't know the official names for these parts...

1/2 Circle Plate 4 x 8 isn't highlighted in the inventory list. you'll need 56 of these :)

Yah, think they missed out quite a number of 1/4 and 1/2 circle plates.

@efencer Thanks for the instructions! Does anyone have the instructions for the smaller individual bases?

Hmm.. leagless guy in the instructions makes me wonder if one of the next BrickHeadz is like that..

Quite possibly, but could it just be referring to Belle? Or do you know something we don't (as usual!).

Oops, legless*

I didn't think of Belle.. makes sense. Never mind.

Out of interest, how long do you think the first series of Brickheadz will be in the shops for?

I've so far got six of them and will slowly be getting the rest, but don't want it to be too slow and miss some.

Do you think they will be around for a year? Six months? Just a few weeks?

I'm just a little concerned given how quickly the CMFs sometimes disappear and how quickly the last Mixels went too.

I was hoping these would be a one series per year thing- very expensive times ahead otherwise!

I'd both love and hate that.

No way I wait another year for new ones. I'm guessing there'll be one more wave later this year.

The bad thing, however, is that these take up a D2C slot so we could have gotten another Disney set or another Fairground set instead of Brick Headz.

I'm hoping not more than once per year. Brickset.com seems to have become brickheadzset.com for the past month, most of the reviews and interviews have focussed on them.

You are doing Lego God's work

^^I've been told that Series 2 is not until 2018. If these are to remain a Lego exclusive item that would probably make sense.

blogzilly

I have a question regarding the nature of exclusives like the San Diego Brickheadz. I've been searching around the web for instructions or parts lists or whatever to try and build those myself. Hard to find. Is that the way it usually goes down with stuff like that? Does LEGO ever provide those kinds of things?

Drmnez

In my experience, you just have to find people that have then and are willing to provide there instructions/part lists. I will tell you that those bh exclusives do have some exclusive parts

VorpalRyu

Of the Marvel SDCC ones, all of them have a few printed parts unique to each figure, plus with Captain America & Iron Man, there are six parts in colours unique to that set.

blogzilly

Yeah I figured that I would have to wing it a bit...thanks for the info.

ricecake

Thanks to @efencer and @Recce I have built the display stands on Mecabricks:

Are you talking about this one?

If so, you can click on the "Inventory" tab, which will give you options to download as CSV or Bricklink XML.

Turns out brick heads sit quite comfortably in the Porsche.

I ended up grabbing some Brickheadz at a local Wal-Mart since they were down to $2.50. Didn't think I'd like em, but honestly they are kinda cute. Dang! Now I gotta grab the others!
