DC Superheroes 2016 - Rumors and Discussion

Yeah, the snowplow looks cool.And by the way I meant V1 of the Super Heroes (2012-present day) theme, should've made that much clearer. -

Really excited to get V1 of Bane (have TDKR one) finally after 5 years. In such a cheap set as well. The rest I don't really care about as I have them all, but a duplicate of Catwoman will be nice. Still think a Reverse Flash would be better for a set, but that's just me being a fan-boy. Also, I know this is off topic, but I'd like to take this time to send my condolences and wishes to all those affected by the Paris Attacks. Such a tragic event caused by such a needless reason. The terrorists will pay for what they've done. #PrayForParis -

Okay, I've compiled an album of the 4 DC set images released today (76053, 76061, 76062, 76063), as well as the 3 Marvel ones (76064, 76065, 76066), so if you don't want to go scouting around on the internet and over to BrickAlliance then PM me and I'll send you a link to the 7 pics. -

Thanks for telling us! Is it me, or does that Robin look like he has the 2006/08 head? -

Perhaps not, but if Winter Soldier here says they are on the internet then surely he's found them and will know where to find them -

Maybe Deadshot will haev a helmet and look like the one from the Suicide Squad pack from LB3, with a Floyd Lawton head beneath. -

I think people have seen them but they can't release them for us to see, ESPECIALLY here. BrickAlliance (on Instagram) like Sir Gareth said above seems to be a good source for releasing images, and he posted a box art image of 76053 just today, but he's said he will remove it today as well though. If you want a permanent copy of the image I'd get over there fast! I have a copy of the image for anyone who misses out. -

I wonder how much the Batman Begins and Heath Ledger Joker will be worth in say 2 years from now (assuming it retires this year or next summer). -

I don't see why racer prelims haven't been released. They feature 2 characters that haven't been seen since 2012 and feature Captain Cold and The Flash, two figures only available in mildly expensive/expensive sets. I'd like to see the other half of the Batmobile set, hopefully it's pretty cool. -

Wow the box art actually kinda makes the image pop out a bit more. Sorry to sound greedy but has anyone seen box art of 76052 (the presumed 66' Batcave) or any of the racers' box arts? -

Might I ask how you saw it? And thanks for the info -
DC Superheroes 2016 - Rumors and Discussion
Deathstroke77 replied to just2good's topic in LEGO Licensed
When? I saw the prelim photos, but I didn't see any box art (like with the DC banner at the top and images of characetrs at bottom). -

Wait we had prelim box art for 76053? -

If that is genuinely going to appear in a set then I'm giving up with LEGO. The figures were so cool this year, if they intend to release THAT then they haven't just dropped down a mark, they've dropped down god damn Everest. Some of the 06' figures were better quality/print. I have faith in LEGO that they will release another amazing wave, but the sheer amount of these figures worries me. -

The sets are interesting, but even in November all 3 sets haven't been FULLY revealed -

Well this is most boring isn't it. No news at all really and we are now in mid-November (I class 10-20th mid-November). This time last year I believe we had a full set of prelims, possibly official box art. We've had a few rumours, a leaked prelim and description and 2 set images. Not much really -

I don't know. Perhaps somebody got their hands on one and duplicated them. Anyway like 8BrickMario said if these aren't real then tank god, if they are, then LEGO really need to buck up their ideas. Kids don't care, but LEGO collectors like us who pay attention to detail... This would be unacceptable. Looking back at the £12 BvS set, it seems like we won't get a stubble face. It's a real shame as I've wanted a stubble face Batman for a while now, and Zur-En Arrk will never be released in a set. This would have been a prime oppurtunity to get us some stubble face action. Even if it was just 1 set I'd be fine with it. -

All these figures are most definitely fakes (if we are talking a finished product), customs or from cheap brands such as Decool or SY (again, if we are talking finished products). The lack of back printing, re-used torso's and poorly painted wings do not fit with LEGO's current style, they won't just reverse back to old prints like that and use such a bad wing piece. Compare that to the two we got this year. It is incredibly un-detailed, and you can see the poor paint around the edges of the lines. They can not be finished products. There is on one front I will digress; these are prototype figures. Nurse Joker has the makings of a great fig, but lacks back printing and the proper hairpiece, introduced with Black Widow. However it could be a prototype, as they may not have finished the torso print, nor done the hair to a good standard. The same goes for the supposed Batman Beyond figure. The fig is fine apart from the torso and wings. The torso could have been just a quick re-print to see how the colours go and the wings a quick paint job to see if that goes ok. That's could be why they are all old prints and pieces as seen by dates, they could just simply be re-used pieces for a prototype. Like with the Joker figure you'd need a Heath Ledger face, hence the face there. -

Anyway, the set looks cool, even from the prelim. The Bat-Pod kinda thing looks pretty darn amazing, and Harley's cycle is pretty neat too, and Deadshot's bazooka looks like it's a stud shooter from where I'm sitting, which is a nice feature as well. Harley also appears to have pigtails (I think???), but obviously this is a prelim so that can all change. This is very good value for a set if it turns out to be £25 like we expect. Also gives those who didn't get a shot at the Bat-Pod sweepstakes in June a Bat-Pod of their own, just a bit smaller and less detailed. -

OMG. I think I just went to heaven. A BAT-POD!!!! (kinda) And err... Are we sure that's Deadshot?... -

I hope they are gone, they're just needless pieces which makes parts of the build unstable (because of the need for the super jumper' use), and it occassionally messes up parts of the legs too. I think LEGO should scrap the super jumper completely. -

Deathstroke77 replied to just2good's topic in LEGO Licensed
It's an... ok set IMO. The Batwing looks okay, but I'm not too sure about the grey on it. And against that tiddly helicopter?! Either way it has nice figs, but nothing at all special other than that. I'm still wondering what the £30 set will look like, but it's kinda bad from LEGO when people want the £12 set almost as much as the big set of the wave, which seems REALLY overpriced to me. Really hoping the March releases will deliver, especially 76053, that's the set I want most from the TRU description. -

I still think LEGO need to take their eyes off the comics and towards big franchises like the DCCU which they are finally doing properly. The Arkham games are very popular, and it is stupid they arent trying to do anything based off those. The CW shows are getting huge successes, mainly The Flash. LEGO are really missing the trick here with these kind of things, kids are starting to get interested in these types of things (at least the CW shows), they should really swerve into that kind of thing rather than a constant stream of comic based sets. We should get 2 waves; The Winter Wave should focus on stuff like the DCCU and so on, then the Summer Wave should roll out the Justice League and comic based sets. -

Though it looks convincing, duplicates of figures from brands such as SY and Decool are beginning to really resemble LEGO's figures. LEGO needs to do something about these fake brands, some of my friends who've wanted rare figures such as Deadpool and the old Scarecrow have all been drawn into cheap duplicates that have ultimately broken after a few days. LEGO will start receiving complaints soon that 'their figures' are fragile when they are coming from rip-offs like the two I mention above
