LEGO Dimensions Wave 2: Gremlins

As it is obvious that many of you buy the LEGO Dimensions expansion packs only for the exclusive minifigs they contain without really taking an interest in the game itself, here is a first look at the two license-based minifigs. The gremlins : Gizmo on the left and a Gremlin bottom right.

These two characters are not part of the next wave of expansion packs, they will be available later, probably in a Team Pack or a Level Pack.

These two minifigs make a cameo appearance in the video uploaded by NintendoLife.
