tl;dr version, it looks something like a free to play LEGO version of Diablo with a dash of Skylanders. You can buy real LEGO minifigures and the packets will include codes that you play as them in-game.
Oh, and there's also LEGO Chima Online (currently in open beta), which is similar but isn't tied into physical LEGO sets as much, is a lot more clunky, and all the characters are furries: https://na.chimaonline.com/
Kinda odd that LEGO is trying again with not one, but two new MMOs so soon after their first one (LEGO Universe) fell flat.
Muzzles56:
this wont last long. i hope.
Momentum:
it will go down like lego universe
tails:
The lego universe developers were moaning in a youtube comment thread, About Funcom making the game out of all of the things they made.
Dread:
Looks kinda neat
