I swear they’re laughing at us. I’m convinced that the only thing that can save this theme that has a non-zero chance of happening is Absolute Batman sets Quote
hvader Posted June 12 Posted June 12 That feeling when you’re both a Lego Marvel and DC fan, and while you’re on cloud nine about the Marvel wave, you look at DC and realize you’re only getting Batmobiles again for another year… Quote

Lego DC is getting 2 Batmobiles. Lego Marvel is getting 0 Batmobiles. Lego DC wins again! Lego Marvel fans are in tears right now. Quote
Rwbricks Posted June 12 Posted June 12 Star Wars gets great, long awaited stuff. Marvel gets great, long awaited stuff. DC gets a minifigure other than Batman. Quote

Every single LEGO DC decision for the past 5 years has been exclusively because of your feedback. Well that's fair enough, you win some and you lose some Quote
CloneCommando99 Posted June 13 Posted June 13 Good news! With an Aaron Pierre face likely being made for Star Wars Starfighter sets and the newly rumoured Lasher body…. We can make a custom GL 2011 style John Stewart! Aren’t the designers considerate? /s 12 hours ago, Rwbricks said: DC gets a minifigure other than Batman. TBF.

Can't let the fans have a non-batman hero. 4 hours ago, Renny The Spaceman said: Not necessarily, maybe Copper Batman drives the duck now Clearly it's penguin stuffed into a batman suit.

The head is the Kazuda Xiono/Bruce wayne head in that glow-in-the-dark color they use because they seem to think penguin can do that) Quote

They paid Lucasfilm a visit and demanded his character be turned into a droid or alien, so there was 0 chance for any actual faceprint of his in the first place. They don’t mess around.

Seems like a logical next step for this theme. Quote

After all, having to include a cockpit that can fit a minifigure makes it more difficult to design a Batmobile. 5 hours ago, BrickBob Studpants said: Nahhhh, they went way further than that.

They actually have Aaron Pierre locked up in the basement of the lego house. If he can't complete filming, they'll have to cut him from the movie, so there's no chance of a minifigure being created that could be used for a non-batman DC character. Quote

I am taking a chance on pre-ordering the game through Amazon I like the idea as you can cancel via amazon if it releases through EB Quote

In 2028, every Lego DC set will just be an empty box with stock images of Lego Batman plaster all over them. Quote

Like the 1977 star wars Early Bird certificate package but instead of promising to mail you a batmobile they promise to come to your house and take one away. Quote

Clone OPatra Posted June 16 Posted June 16 I was wracking my brain as to how LEGO could end up claiming they'd made something Superman related so WB could include LEGO as a list of merchandising partners for Supes again. There it is. Brickheadz. Quote

Clearly, the way they'll do it is by making the Arkham Knight Batmobile superman branded. It won't actually include superman, or have anything in the set referencing him, but the boxart will have a small superman logo in the corner. 1 hour ago, Lionbear8 said: I was thinking with the batmobiles they should releaee mini art portraits of each bat mobile lol The year is 2028. We're getting one batman set. It's a mosiac that can be either the tumbler, 1989 batmobile, or pattmobile. Quote
CloneCommando99 Posted June 17 Posted June 17 (edited) Nooooooo! Brickheadz Jonkler strikes again! He’s Brickheadized Superman before he can get an actual set. Honestly, it’s nice we’re getting something nonBatman, just wish it had been a normal set though. But why can’t we get World’s Finest normal sets? It’s literally the most fun and toyetic current Batman run behind Absolute Batman. And there are Batmobiles and everything in there! Edited June 17 by CloneCommando99 Quote

Well Warner Bros won't even exist by 2027, so we'll see what happens. This one can count as a Supergirl tie in anyway. 2 hours ago, CloneCommando99 said: But why can’t we get World’s Finest normal sets Because F us that's why.

CloneCommando99 Posted June 22 Posted June 22 (edited) Damn, I guess Lego isn’t making as much stuff for other DC characters as isn’t really releasing anything targeted towards kids right now or in the near future…. Oh wait. (Ignore Creature Commandos) I know it likely won’t happen but Lego should really release Hero Character packs next year for both Marvel and DC. It would help a lot with lightening the Doomsday/ Secret Wars character load as well as cheaply enabling Lego to try and see if other characters are in demand. Thunderbolts, X-Men, Justice Gang, DC Superpowers, all the different GLs who have leading parts, Mr Miracle, Starfire, etc… Edited June 22 by CloneCommando99 Quote
