UPDATED! - Three new characters added! - New packaged and loose promotional images have hit the internet.

With news that the San Diego Comic-Con exclusive for 2017 is a BrickHeadz Spiderman/Venom and Supergirl/Martian Manhunter many are reflecting on the entire nature of the convention exclusive. For some the annual hunt for the LEGO convention exclusive is an integral part of the event while for others - mostly those who can't go in person - it is a major speed bump to maintaining a complete collection, and the latest issue of Blocks Magazine has an editorial on it reports Brick Fanatics. It's worth noting that LEGO currently has three BrickHeadz themes - DC, Marvel and Disney - and so far two of the three are being represented at SDCC. Is there room for another or would that triple the ire aimed at LEGO already?
