I don't get the concept of Lego Rock Band. So the animation is Lego. Everything else is the same, right? You can't Lego-ize a song. Unless you're getting songs on it that you can't get otherwise (like Rock Band AC/DC), which hopefully you can also download to your console, what's the point?
I think that the point is that you can customize the experience while playing the same songs. Now you can do Star Wars Rock Band, Star Trek Rock Band... all kinds of different skins until you find one you like.
