The main thing it has in common with such sets is its blockiness, and that’s inevitable since it’s based on such a blocky-looking subject in the first place. Perhaps that’s true as far as its sheer size goes, but most Creator sets back then (particularly low-priced ones) were neither this well articulated, nor did they feature as much textural detail or SNOT building. I also disagree of it looking like a $15 Creator set from 2007. Considering that those sets are usually not available anywhere outside the convention itself and tend to cost as much as $40 for an average piece count of 186, a BlizzCon tie-in set being available online at a price of $25 feels downright generous by comparison. In that respect, it’s less analogous to a regular retail set or even a store exclusive, and more to the 2012–2018 SDCC and NYCC exclusive sets. aanchir Octoat 10:37 With regard to the price I think it has a lot less to do with it being “the first set” and more to do with it being a limited release exclusive - specifically one designed to tie in with next month’s BlizzCon event, where I think we will see the theme as a whole being revealed in greater detail.(EDIT: Check out the full line of LEGO Overwatch sets here.)ħ5987 Omnic Bastion comes with 182 pieces and sells for $25.00 USD from the Blizzard Gear Store online until supplies run out. I am personally looking forward to see what else LEGO has planned, based on this first entry in the Overwatch line. But as a limited Blizzard exclusive and the first ever LEGO Overwatch set ever produced, the cost seems more justifiable (even with a few stickers). This set captures the ungainly stance of the character from Overwatch with tremendous accuracy and its heavy armour seems faithful to the game, featuring an excellent combination of tan and sand green panels. (I moved a few pieces around from the arms to get the two shoulder armor plates in the right position, and I removed his head since there is no room for it to descend into the torso–I shoved it under the back of the build to prevent it from tipping backwards.)Īt nearly 14 cents per piece, the set seems a little overpriced if it were a typical LEGO product. Bastion's robotic design is inherently suitable for LEGO and 75974 Bastion looks brilliant in official images. Instructions are not given to transform Bastion into Sentry-mode, so I tried to get the look with as few adjustments as possible. The main model features the robot in his standing Recon-mode, though Bastion has two other modes in the game: Sentry and Tank.

It remains to be seen if and how LEGO will make the character at minifigure scale, but at this small mecha-scale, Bastion works well and can be posed in many different positions. This highly detailed figure features recon-mode Bastion with Ganymede perched on its shoulder, plus a gun and light brick in its head you can press. Bastion stands over 4 inches tall, with Ganymede perched atop his shoulder plate. Overall, the first ever LEGO Overwatch set does not disappoint.
