\"\"<\/a>Teen Titans Go! is one of Cartoon Network\u2019s most popular shows right now.\u00a0 It has to be because nearly every time I turn on the TV, that show is on.\u00a0 I\u2019ve never been a big fan of Teen Titans, both the original cartoon and this new one, but I\u2019m sure the new one is popular with kids thanks to its irreverent humor.\u00a0 And now you can relive the adventures of the wacky super hero teens with the Teen Titans Go! Team Pack and Fun Pack for LEGO Dimensions.\u00a0 It\u2019s available for nearly all current game consoles, but reviewed on Wii U here.<\/p>\n

LEGO Dimensions is essentially like Skylanders, except you build and play with LEGOs instead.\u00a0 I even wrote a big article about it a while back that you can read<\/strong><\/a>. \u00a0 I’ve been lucky enough to be able to review most of the LEGO Dimensions packs, as WB Games has sent them to me for review purposes, including these, which I’m very thankful for. The Teen Titans Go! Team Pack comes with two playable characters and two vehicles.\u00a0 The game gives you instructions on how to put together the vehicles once the characters are placed on the pedestal.\u00a0 The Team Pack comes with Beast Boy and Raven, and two vehicles: the T-Car and Raven\u2019s Spellbook.\u00a0 Here\u2019s a bigger shot of the package:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When you play as Beast Boy, his attacks change his limbs into various animals, like bat wings, tentacles, and he can even charge as a dog.\u00a0 He can also fly by turning into a bird, and when he swims, he turns into a shark.\u00a0 He can also throw his banana like a boomerang.\u00a0 Raven can fly, too, but she can also fire dark blasts of energy.\u00a0 The T-Car is just a regular vehicle, but if you hold down a button, it can jump.\u00a0 When my brother and I were building these, we thought the T on the front of the car looked more like Squidward\u2019s nose.\u00a0 Raven\u2019s Spellbook also acts like a vehicle in the game, as you can sit on it and ride around.\u00a0 While riding on the book, you can hold down a button to make a cute little pony come out and you can control it remotely.\u00a0 Not sure what that\u2019s all about, but I imagine it\u2019s a reference to the cartoon show that I don\u2019t watch.\u00a0 One neat thing about the actual spellbook you build is that it has a hinge so you can open and close it.\u00a0 Although it can\u2019t do that with the lightning bolt sticking out of it.\u00a0 Like other LEGO Dimensions vehicles, you can spend studs to rebuild and upgrade them into new things.\u00a0 Here\u2019s a picture of the figures all built and out of the box.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Fun Pack is sold separately and includes Starfire and the Titan Robot.\u00a0 Not sure if they\u2019ll make a Robin or Cyborg set for Teen Titans Go!\u00a0 There is already a Robin included in the LEGO Batman Movie set, and there was a DC Comics set with Cyborg, but I don\u2019t know if they\u2019ll work with the Teen Titans Go stuff or not.\u00a0 Anyway, here\u2019s a shot of the Fun Pack box.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Starfire can also fly and shoot out blasts of energy, but she can also fire a charged laser as well.\u00a0 You can ride on the Titan Robot and it can hover, but not fly.\u00a0 But it can shoot out a laser.\u00a0 Between the robot and the spellbook, the Teen Titans Go sets probably feature some of the tallest figures in the game.\u00a0 Here are the Fun Pack bunch all built and out of the box.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You unlock a few things with the Team Pack and Fun Pack.\u00a0 One new thing you get is a full length episode of Teen Titans Go!, which explains how the crew got into the LEGO world in the first place.\u00a0 Half of it is animated like the show and the other half is CG like the LEGO cartoons.\u00a0 It\u2019s really just there to promote the new packs, but it\u2019s still cute and I\u2019m sure fans will love it.\u00a0 You also unlock a new Adventure World and Battle Arena.\u00a0 I like it when LEGO Dimensions does a cartoon world because they make everything in it cel-shaded with bright colors, so it really looks like the show.\u00a0 You\u2019ll explore the Titans\u2019 T-shaped tower, all around Jump City, and a few other locations I don\u2019t know because I don\u2019t watch the cartoon.\u00a0 Like other adventure hub worlds, you can spend studs to build structures and take on missions and requests.\u00a0 It\u2019ll be a treat for Teen Titans Go! fans for sure.<\/p>\n

Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kids love superheroes and Teen Titans Go!, so they\u2019ll probably like this, too.\u00a0 LEGO Dimensions is rated E-10 with ESRB descriptors of Cartoon Violence and Crude Humor. If you\u2019re OK with your kids watching the show, they\u2019ll definitely be OK with this game, too.\u00a0 While I would recommend most LEGO games to all ages, I think LEGO Dimensions is best for older kids.\u00a0 One, the things you build are pretty complicated sometimes, so they would need to be experienced LEGO handlers.\u00a0 And like other LEGO toys, the sets are pretty expensive so kids would need to know how to keep up with and take care of their toys, as the game is useless without them.\u00a0 And plus using the pedestal is not very intuitive.\u00a0 Also don\u2019t forget the whole choking hazard thing with small LEGOs!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
