The LEGO Hobbit Comic Con sets are exclusive LEGO sets or minifigures released in conjunction with major comic conventions, such as San Diego and New York Comic-Con. These limited-edition releases often feature unique designs or characters not found in the standard retail sets. Targeted mainly at collectors and convention attendees, these sets provide a distinctive and rare LEGO offering tied to The Hobbit universe.
2014 LEGO Sets
2014 was a very important year for LEGO. With the release of The LEGO Movie at the beginning of the year, LEGO was introduced to a whole new generation and population of LEGO lovers, collectors and investors. In addition to the movie, LEGO celebrated the 15th anniversary of LEGO Star Wars and even more important was the decision to continue the Ninjago theme which was originally slated to be discontinued. 2014 also gave collectors the minifigure-scale Minecraft theme based off the widely popular game. New themes that year included Juniors, The LEGO Movie, Mixels, The Simpsons, Ultra Agents, Fusion and Disney Princess. In addition, we did see a number of discontinued themes such as Galaxy Squad, Lone Ranger and The Lord of The Rings.
