PS3 Starter Pack

The PS3 Starter Pack 71170 is the entry point into LEGO Dimensions on PlayStation 3, combining 268 pieces with 3 minifigures and the Toy Pad that links them to the video game. Unlike a standard building set, the centrepiece here is a piece of playable hardware rather than a display model. Light bluish grey, black, dark blue and trans-light blue run through both the vehicle and the Toy Pad itself.

Description

A building set that plugs into a video game

LEGO Dimensions works by combining physical building with a video game: finished minifigures and vehicles are placed on the included Toy Pad, which makes them controllable inside the game. The PS3 Starter Pack includes everything needed to get going, the Toy Pad itself, 3 minifigures drawn from different franchises, and one vehicle, adding up to 268 pieces in total. That mix of hardware accessory and building set sets it apart from a standard theme set such as City or Star Wars, where the only outcome is a model to display.

Three minifigures, three franchises

A Starter Pack's 3 minifigures typically come from different licensed properties, one of the defining features of LEGO Dimensions compared with single-theme sets. Each figure carries its own in-game abilities when placed on the Toy Pad, while still working as a standalone minifigure for anyone who wants to build and display it without the game. For collectors interested in mixing franchises within one collection, the Starter Pack offers a compact way to bring several different characters together in a single set.

Parts and colours behind the Toy Pad

A large share of the 94 different part types goes into the Toy Pad itself, built from several interlocking base plates in light bluish grey, black and trans-light blue. Dark blue and the remaining colours appear mostly on the included vehicle. That functional, hardware-oriented colour choice sets the set apart from a typical play scene, and makes the parts list on this page particularly useful for anyone looking to repair or extend their Toy Pad.

Who the Starter Pack is for

The PS3 Starter Pack is aimed primarily at PlayStation 3 owners who want to combine building with video game elements. Without the console and game, the minifigures and vehicle can still be built and displayed like any other set, but the Toy Pad's full functionality only comes into play alongside the game itself. For minifigure collectors, the set remains worthwhile on its own, since it brings 3 different characters together regardless of the gaming side.
