That Spider-man looks like a simplified Spider-Man 1602.

did the bootleggers get the scoop on the new Toys R Us bricktober batmans? https://www.thebrickfan.com/the-lego-batman-movie-bricktober-2017-set-revealed/

Didn't the bootleggers already release those? I remember at least Ancient Roman Batman

OMG now Lego is copying bootleggers!!! (joking)

These are all designs from the movie or accompanying books so I think Lego got there first.

Of course for the sake of a bit of fun, the Baturion was released first by a bootlegger, then by a customiser and then by Lego. Mind blown.

we did get the Bunny too, as well as the Money suit, but the money suit one was white and not green.

This is amusing.

And, the TRON we needed but never got:

Its a shame they didn't upscale the F&F stuff a little more. 

The Kazi x-agents stuff I pretty much a TRON analog, all of it is pretty awesome. The upside also being that it all looks to be printed.

I have ordered a small set, the one that looks most like a lightcycle with the blue haired character.

Hey Peppermint, weren't you asking about terracotta warriors awhile ago?

[Peppermint_M]

So perfect! Yes, I want those sort of things, TLG has not really made much related to Chinese culture and I want those for a MOC. I'm hoping the price is good, so I can have a few.

[Jedi-Bendu]

Received BO KATAN from Star Wars yesterday. Great that there's another fig TLG never made after last years Darth Nihilus.

They are up already and pretty much at the normal price:

Cool! Now I just need to decide on a sensible number of figures to buy... I can't quite manage emperor worthy numbers.

TLBM figs from the end of the movie. The sources say there will be no figs from this scene as real lego figs, so these bootlegs may be your chance?

I bought those golden Nexo Knights posted a while back.  They're pretty nice, decent quality.

Love the Nexo Knights.

I think that the violet/star sapphire bat is supposed to be Batgirl, just a suspicion. 

I think I have a need for the Darkest Knight.

Those He-Man figs look very off. Too bad because i like the motu designs.  Does somebody spot something interesting on one of these figs that can help to make a new custom superhero for instance? Mer-Man his headpiece will work for a force ghost wolverine  or a frozen one by iceman

I was excited to see He-Man but you are right the designs are bad. Tri-Klops doesn't even have three eyes.

Could be useful for pieces, from there add some extra parts and a some face swaps. 

As much as I love to see the full range of Bat Lanterns, I'm not sure if buying extras just for those rings is worth it overall.  

[Peppermint_M]

There is also a possibility that sellers might start doing actual Lantern Corps figures, or a set of lanterns and rings.

I think Tri-clops' armor  can be use to make Samurai from The Super Friends

Has anyone tried getting bootleg capes. Are they the same terrible material that the bootleg minifigs use?

I hope so. I missed out on St Walker and Atrocitous from when they were issued before.
