Good. I never hated the Snyderverse, but I do dislike the Snyder cult :laugh_hard: Seeing them crumble is very satisfying after the torture they subjected us to with the annoying Snydercut campaign. Or should I say, campain!

Still, sucks to live in a world where the DCEU got quite a few sets while it‘s still unclear if we will ever see anything based on the DCU.

I don't think it's nice to enjoy seeing people who loved something that got taken away from them be annoyed, WB really did Zack,Henry and Ben dirty and there was lots of studio meddling going on, James Gunn has a very big Ego, always wants himself front and center on everything, I really think he wants The Batman 2 gone, he wants Colin to play a character no one cares about called Sgt Rock, that might be a way of stopping Matt from using Colin for Part 2

I liked the Superman sneak peek until Superman was crying in agony from his Dog hurting him, it just feels like a humiliation ritual, it was all good until then

The Start of The DCU is very questionable besides Superman and Batman, Where's Wonder Woman, Justice League, Flash (I know the movie done terrible so maybe thats why they wont make another one)

All these side projects with characters like Booster Gold,Waller,Sgt Rock, it's not a good business decision, we are getting a Clayface movie before Batman ffs

We'll see in July anyway, if Superman fails then it might be a good thing because WB will sell DC to someone else, WB might be more stupid than Disney, they have no idea what to do with DC

I think Universal should get DC

Turns out the Arkham Asylum is 300€, and the 400€ price was a mistake. We might actually be so back with this set. :moar:

In a way I'm kinda let down cause in my eyes, less price=less build size and figures, hopefully it still has 10 or more figures

But at least it fits with the piece count

I hope it comes with a GCPD car or Patient Transport

Not really, because the piece count has remained the same.

The problem with the 400€ price was that the set didn't even have 3000 pieces, so it'd be a really bad deal. With a 300€ price point though, it's much more fair.

Now to see what this set is actually based on. I will die happy if it's a generic comic-inspired one, and might actually end up buying it—provided it looks good enough.

I could see the side build being a Micro Batwing similar to quinjet in tower or a GCPD transporter. I wonder if they’ll do a GWP as well, my guess would be a GCPD car with Gordon or something

Comic is great too

The 2012 Arkham still holds up today but sadly it's so thin on the sides

Now we're wishing for too much lol, we'll never get a cool GWP like a GCPD car, or a GWP at all for that matter, last GWP we got was the 1989 Batmobile

Honestly I'd be ok if this was the last ever set of the theme, go out with a bang, I would like an updated Bane from TDKR and a Bat-Pod though

A UCS Battinson Mobile would be cool too

I have a bad feeling that 300$ isn't the final price, Jango's Slave I was originally 240$ and The Shire was 200 or 240$, the info on price from leakers usually changes near release

Could become 350 or 370$ knowing how greedy Lego is now

I imagine there'll be quite a few of large prison cell bars door frame insert parts.

You were literally doing that on the star wars thread, let's be fair and say  if you want to shit on the Accolyte which I enjoyed then don't be surprised when other people will shit on things you enjoy.

The Jan set numbers got leaked, looks like it’s 12 sets (3 being 4+). 1 is 18+ the rest range from 6-10+. Most will likely be Marvel but with Doomsday coming mid year they’ll probably save a few Marvel sets to release around then. I’d guess a mech and Batmobile for DC

Supergirl vs Lobo Or Green Lantern vs sinistro would be a fun one to get 

If they do a new Batmobile it’ll probably be Batman and Robin or Pattinson

Instructions unclear, are we dunking on Acolyte again? (You can't ignore the difference of people here saying they're glad snyder fans are "melting down" versus just saying Acolyte was bad or whatever. Saying a project is terrible is one thing, saying you're happy the fans of the project are upset is another. There's a difference between opinion and Schadenfreude.)

 

To get back on topic, the PPP for Arkham should be a good thing, but I refuse to believe that DC's actually putting out a good set. My money's still on a microscale one with the figures being, like, Batman and Jonkler.

Don’t do that. 
Don’t kill my hope. 
 

The new price and the 2026 list has me hopeful, the latter for nothing else if not some smaller wins, like the Superman mech and TDK Two-Face this year.

Not a chance. That's an absurdly good PPP, it has to be microscale or something.

Frankly, the ratio isn't even that good. It's fair, if anything; it's just that with the recent price increases we forgot how good we had it with some ratios in the past.

It's also absolutely not a microscale set. Those have much better PPP ratios; some examples: 4210 pcs for 300€ (B:TAS Gotham), 2750 pcs for 200€ (Diagon Alley), 6020 pcs for 470€ (old Hogwarts), 2660 pcs for 170€ (new Hogwarts).

Remember when the leakers said this set is going to be amazing when we first found out about its existence? What if they were actually right, and it's just a fantastic set without any loopholes? One can hope.

The piece count for Arkham is IMO not enough to do a modular version of the kind of building that Arkham is. But then again I thought the same about the X-Mansion, and the result shows that yes you can do it at this piece count, it just won't look good. So I'm kind of expecting the same here: a building with architecture that's supposed to be imposing but which really looks tiny and cramped compared to everything else (except the X-Mansion I guess).

In my defence. I have nothing against normal Snyder fans. I myself enjoyed MoS and WW quite wholeheartedly despite their flaws.

It’s just the most vocal group of them who display Eobard Thawne levels of pettiness toward James Gunn and the new DCU despite Superman not releasing yet. That group, rightfully dubbed “Snydercult,” are who it’s both hilarious and disturbing to watch get in a tizzy for no good reason and reveal themselves not to be comic fans in the slightest despite claiming to be so and that Gunn isn’t.

I actually was thinking about this the other day.

If Lego wants to capitalise on the Superman hype, they could do a Guy Gardner mech vs General Zod in January 2026. Since that’s where both GL and Superman now overlap in the character and villain department. (Guy was also in House of Braniac, albeit a background role so they could also do Braniac)

It’s X-Mansion priced. Therefore we can expect 9-10 characters. I am definitely ruling out Robin now.

One of my favourite examples will always be that Snydercult guy with a Darkseid profile pic, asking what the New Gods were when that movie idea was still around :laugh_hard:

That PPR is suspiciously good… I’m still not getting my hopes up until we hear more details. DC has burned us enough lately.

I think it's funny everyone here saying how suspiciously good this slightly worse than the standard PPP is. Says a lot about how low expectations are

Little bit humourous, I perhaps may have laughed.

I think it's funny how personal people take these Superhero cinematic universes when the best of any of them is like a seven out of ten.

September 9th is the rumoured release date. Hope we get a mini figure list by June 

I can definitely see it being x mansion or sanctum size with 10-12 figures. 
I just hope on rebrickable we can combine 2 to get a bigger one like the 3 floor moc upgrades for the x mansion

It’s Lego. You can always combine two to make a bigger one. It’s just a question of how easily you can combine two to make a bigger one. 😝

This set needed to be DC’s Daily Bugle or Avengers Tower, and I fear it’s going to be DC’s X-Mansion (fine, but kind of underwhelming for what it could’ve been). I would rather pay 400 or 500 and get way more. It’s not like I have to budget for other DC sets anyways.

We'll see. I'd love to be proven wrong. A solid Arkham set with Batman, Robin, Nightwing, Harleen, two guards, and 6-9 inmates could start to turn it around.

Sure, it's just that at this point a minifig scale set with a fair PPP in DC is "absurdly good" in my mind.

Pretty sure there was nothing wrong with what I said, I think we could all agree WB doesn't deserve to have the DC IP anymore 

Also I really hope Arkham is not another Skyline lmao

Do you mean UCS or playscale ? if playscale then I highly doubt we'd get another Pattinson mobile until 2027 if that movie ever gets made

I was thinking potentially playscale just because the forever and Batman and Robin Batmobiles are pretty similar. Plus can the world handle 2 bat nipples being sold at the same time. Only other one is Batfleck but I can’t see them touching the DCEU for awhile. But it does make more sense to wait the year for the movie to potentially hopefully release
