LEGO® DREAMZzz will introduce an extensive cast of new characters who we’ll join in their animated adventures and who will also be transformed into magical minifigures and figures in the upcoming sets. Each of the main characters have a Dream Land alter ego and will be joined by various Dreamlings. The heroes must unite to take on the Nightmare King and his Grimspawn. You’ll be seeing many of these faces and plenty more in the coming weeks and months. So let’s meet the LEGO DREAMZzz characters.

Mateo – a visionary artist that lacks confidence

A creative genius and Izzie’s older brother, Mateo (a.k.a Teo) is a talented artist who loves designing his own superhero comic books. His favourite thing to draw is Z-Blob, a cool character he created. Although he sometimes lacks confidence in his own abilities, he has a big heart and is always prepared to help his friends. Luckily, he has a trusty sidekick in the form of Z-Blob, who’s brought to life in the dream world!

Izzie – A free spirit that lacks focus

A natural comedian and Mateo’s little sister, Izzie is an energetic goofball who’s confident, curious and adventurous. Her great intuition and kindness make her a great friend to the other dreams, but her tendency to act without thinking sometimes puts them in danger. She looks up to Mateo, is best friends with Nova and loves plushies, anime and – more surprisingly – scary monsters (because she wants to hug the stuffing out of them!).

Zoey – a rocking musician that lacks trust

The new girl at Francine Wooley Middle School and Mrs. Castillo’s neighbour, Zoey is brave, daring and confident in her own abilities. She’s a talented musician who enjoys marching to the beat of her drum but sometimes struggles to be a good team player because she likes to do things solo. In the dream world, she’s known as the mysterious Dream Bandit and uses her magic clock relic to alter time and help innocent dream creatures and misplaced dreamers.

Cooper – a master builder that lacks imagination

Cooper (more commonly known as Coop) lives across the street from Mateo and Izzie and is Logan’s best friend. Level-headed and logical, he’s savvy with tech and thrives off solving puzzles. He also loves cars and awesome vehicles 0 he wants to dream craft them. His eagerness to make others happy makes him popular at school, but also means he’s sometimes taken advantage of.

Logan – a star athlete that is limited creatively

A star athlete and avid gamer, Logan is a competitive thrill-seeker who’s very confident in his own abilities. He’s best friends with Cooper and has a secret crush on Zoey – he thinks everything she does is badass! Logan may not be as creative as the other dream chasers, but his bravery and quick-thinking make him an important member of the team.

Mr. Oz – a stellar scientist with unfulfilled potential

Mr. Oswald (more often referred to as Mr. Oz or simply Oz) is the kids’ high school science teacher at the Night Bureau. Kind-hearted but a little disorganised, his mind is brimming with knowledge of both worlds. In the dream world he becomes his most creative, laid-back self while his scientific side manifests as Albert – a hyper intelligent space-faring chimpanzee!

Mrs. Castillo

An eccentric and wise old lady, Mrs. Castillo runs a popular food truck that offers an ever-changing menu. She has a habit of serving cryptic advice alongside the orders and, once you get the hang of decoding it, you’ll realise that she’s one of the wisest characters around, even though she’s rather forgetful! In the dream world, you’ll find Mrs. C popping up frequently as a traveller with a fantastical caravan full of wondrous trinkets.

Z-Blob

Z-Blob is Mateo’s lovable, goo-based, shape-shifting artistic creation who’s brought to life in the dream world. Adventurous, loyal and always hungry, he has lots of love to give and is very curious when it comes to the other sidekicks and animals. He has the rare ability to exist in both worlds, making him an awesome companion. Mateo likes to transform Z-Blob into warriors and vehicles to help save sleeping children from the Nightmare.

Albert

When they enter the dream world, Mr. Oz’s type-A, engineering focused side manifests as a space-faring chimpanzee called Albert. Refined and elegant, he is Mr. Oz’s constant champion in the dream world and – although he can be a little impatient and short-tempered – he proves very popular with the kids. Izzie constantly wants to hug him, Cooper wants to talk to him about cool vehicles and he gets along well with Mateo, who reminds him of a young Oz.

Bunchu

A plushie bunny that’s based on her favourite anime series, Bunchu is transformed from a fluffy rabbit toy into a ferocious beat in the dream world. Izzie rides him into battle to save captive dreamers from the Nightmare King and, although he cannot speak, he’s very emotive and full of energy. He may be a little out of control at times, but he’s totally adorable.

Zian

Zian is a giant cat-owl hybrid who Zoey befriends in the dream world and rides to and from her cavern in the fantasy realm. He’s loyal and protective of Zoey, but also has a real soft spot for Izzie, who obviously wants to hug him tight. His silhouette is often patrolling the skies of the dream realms and he’s always on the lookout for valuable dream artifacts to steal. He’s also always ready to swoop in and save dreamers in distress!

The Nightmare King & The Grimspawn

Every hero needs a villainous foe and there is none scarier than the Nightmare King and his Grimions. The tyrannical Nightmare King has his sights fixed firmly on the Dream World and those who are fighting to protect the creativity of dreams. The Nightmare King is joined by the Night Hunter and the Grimspawn.
