It's a digital-only MOC. So It's quite impossible to really build it. Parts don't exist at all in some cases... you'd have to 3D print and / or paint them. Also, the laws of physics (gravity, for example) don't exist in digital programs. It may be structurally unsound, or have bricks that don't fit together in real life like they do digitally.

I mean I make digital mocs and the only one of those that really rings true for me is the colour one ( of course it can a hard to know how fragile a build is without building it).

Things I’d like to see sets based off:

1) Young Justice

2) GL comics (Geoff Johns run specifically)

3) Justice League vs Godzilla. (The mechs in that are awesome)

4) Forever Evil. (Minifig packs. One JL hero, their JLA equivalent and their Earth 3 counterpart.)

 

I'd love young justice but sake of variety I'll list 4 different things.

1) Green Lantern the Animated series 

2) Dark knights of Steel ( not Dark knights:Metal they are very different things and Dark Knights:Metal kinda sucked)

3) DCAMU (Detective Comics Animated movie universe)

4) Wayne Family Adventures

Second thing. I can't stand guys who can fly. even worse... laser eyes which can shoot laser beams. Guy can fly to space and back in seconds. What would Joker do with guy like that? SO childish!

There's an excellent comic where Joker comes to gotham and superman just completely lays into how dumb the character concept can be, serving both to demolish Joker's "game" and prevent him from returning to metropolis in-universe, and critically shredding some of the edgier, substanceless interpretations of joker out-of-universe. It's a great read, you should pick it up.

How could we get instructions for this Batcave? 

Ask the creator.

So are you saying we don't have those parts in those colours for example? I think that guy says in the video, that he was involved whole process. How batcave was build and so on...

(for example, brown bats)

Yeah... that's Ashnflash, a youtuber. He's cool, but whether or not he had input on this MOC means nothing in respect to replicating the build IRL.

I don't get why GL isn't more popular. Not just in lego but in general. I know the Ryan Reynolds film was pretty bad, but how does it nuke out an entire segment of the universe?

Wayne Family Adventures feels like a good opportunity for an 18+ diorama, something to try and draw in those webtoon readers who wouldn't otherwise buy lego. I know it's supposed to be massively popular- it's the only webtoon I've ever read, at least.

Sounds like your issue isn’t actually with Superman. The real problem is that Batman is really lame and they need to come up with even lamer villains for him to stand a chance.

Then third thing. Those numbers tell how excited  I am from them. For example Pat-Pod. VERY little because! IT IS NOT MINIFIGURE SCALE. Simple as that. 

That book is as old as the film and has a lot of great stuff in but also a lot of things we could have had and won't ever get.

I'm guessing that you are not familiar with the World's Finest title then. Or any more recent incidents of Batman gaining powers. Or any of the super powered residents of Gotham City.

Not that long ago you were telling us how we should be excited for the Batpod. It just seems ridiculous next your 5% excitement level.

You know this, I know this, everyone else including the turtle knows this. But he's getting it again and is 100% excited for it, then he'll have it twice and be 200% excited. 205% if he's thinking about the Batpod at the same time.

LEGO BATMAN MOVIE 2 CONFIRMED BABY! LET'S GO!

 

in terms of anything actually attempting to relate to on-topic (not that I think we should go back, it's just probably wise to sprinkle a bit in), my guess for 2025 remains that it'll be 1~3 superman sets with a couple comic-based batman sets and a D2C BTASmobile.

I know right. GL is arguably has the best mythos out of all of DC’s franchises. And thanks to the unlimited possibilities of GL constructs it probably has the most set potential, behind Batman of course.

No Evil Shall Escape my Sight

Thanks for the recap. I haven’t been keeping up with Turtle lore.

Huh. I forgot about Luigi’s pizzeria. It’s been so long. But yes, I think we can all agree that we are all cautiously optimistic for Turtle’s character next season. Especially with what the writer’s have been setting up the last few weeks.

Bring on the villain arc!

theres no bat fam members save for selina whos having a romance with him based off of photos, should be good.

Loving the look of Caped Crusader. I'd love to get those versions of Catwoman, Harley Quinn and Clayface in minifigure form. Hopefully we get something out of it even if its just another Batmobile.

I NEED that catwoman in minifigure form! Harley would have to have a new piece for her jester hat, which is fantastic news for me, I can finally make an accurate minifigure of one of my favorite dc characters!

Ashnflashs's friend made the batcave, i dont know how much ashnflash did to help design it but I doubt he has the instructions for it, I am following the OG creator on instagram and hes never released any instructions for his MOCs.

Hey turtle, mind listing a few batman rogues? At least 10.

Don't do that, it's a dick move trying to get people to prove that they're 'real fans'. It's like that Name every clone meme.

But to hypocritically prove I can:

1 : The Cavalier 

2 : The Ten Eyed Man

3 : The Book Worm

4 : Owlman

5 : Dracula

6 : Gotham Girl

7 : the Music Meister

8 : Punchline 

9 : Spellbinder

10 : Captain Clown

I meant it as turtle saying someone like say, poison ivy to show that batman has super powered unrealistic rogues since he loves too talk about how much better batman is for being less nonsensical then superman and the rest of the JL

 

Also isnt gotham girl a bat family member?

for fun, ill list some nobodies (some of whom lego has made so i guess they arent too niche)

1: Maxie Zeus 

2: Nocturna

3: Nightslayer

4: Carmine Falcone

5: Punch & Jewelee (technically two different people but they are so often paired together that it wouldnt make sense to have them as multiple characters)

6: Tiger moth

7: Dragonfly 

8: Silken Spider

9: The Mannequin 

10: Roxy Rocket

 

Yeah its snobby to name niche superfluous nobodies, but it also gives them some deserved attention. (And i know maxie isnt very niche, and neither is carmine but i think they're still pretty underrepresented)

3 : The Book Worm

Ah yes, The Book Worm. The guy who, in his debut episode of Batman '66, had Commissioner Gordon shot by a sniper and pushed off a newly-opened bridge to his death in front of millions of Gotham TV viewers. Or did he?

(I'm surprised the network censors of the  1960's let that happen, even if it was explained away in the next ten minutes as a fake shooting and a Gordon lookalike who just dived into the water)

This is only topped by the time the Joker rigged a slot machine to two electric chairs to broil Batman and Robin alive.... only for when it reached jackpot needed to turn the Dynamic Duo into the Gruesome Twosome, Gotham City lost power in a blackout. Yes, that happened.

Are we sure Batman doesn’t secretly have super powers? This seems very suspicious.

[legoturtle]

Well in my LEGO Batman universe...

Brickheadz:

41588: The Joker (The BOSS of all the bosses)

TLBM:

1. Joker (replica)
2. Riddler
3. Penguin
4. Scaregrow
5. Bane
6. Two-Face
7. Calculator
8. Calendar Man
9. Red Hood
10. Eraser
11. Orca
12. March Harriet
13. Clock King

So in my LEGO Batman universe, Brickheadz Joker is the Boss. And all those other 13 ... YES! Unlucky number work for the BIG boss. They all form "Purple-13" (mafia) of super criminals. Their BASE is Jokerland. A BIG amusement park full of clowns and small bosses like Eraser or Red Hood. Bigger bosses like Two-Face or Scarecrow run drug and gun business... well to ne honest "poison gas" business is run by scarecrow.

Regular Mafia families like Falcone, Maroni, Sullivan, Skeever... have formed an alliance against "Purple-13". They have to. Otherwise they won't survive.
