DC Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion

Some really great sets in that range. I love the Scuttler, and it’s a great Batwing, if you can find them. I also just love that egghead set. -

Cartoons are what could help, I think. If only LEGO had been releasing sets during the various Batman/Justice League cartoons.... LEGO is mostly marketing to kids...we get another good, popular Batman/DC cartoon, that might just generally boost sales. The Batman Animated series was absolutely huge in terms of merchandising back in the day, and there’s rumour of an extension/follow up in the works for HBO MAX. Batman is perennially popular for DC, there are always Batman toys (non-LEGO) selling well. DC LEGO just needs to see an updated “brand” to tag on to, at least...my opinion and all that. -

Maybe we'll get the usual "standard" Batman set with the unexpected villain of Black Adam, kind of like how we got the Shazam figure. -

I'd personally love it to be the Bat-Ski from Batman Returns to round out the Batmobile and Batwing sets, that'd be a nice addition. I don't know though...I feel like that's a much less well known/liked vehicle. I remember working in a comic/toy shop around the time that Batman Returns came out. We had a lot of merchandise on sale for the film, and the Kenner Batskiboat was a real shelf-warmer. They really weren't selling, we ended up putting them on massive discount. I wonder if LEGO would think that was a really marketable set. Maybe things have changed since 1992 too.... -

They haven't done an Arkham Asylum in a little while, and those do tend to come around every couple of years. Are we going to get another retooled Arkham? I think 200 bucks would be around the correct price range, compared to the previous iterations. -
These are just terrific. Great work!

...and from my understanding of merchandising around DC properties, that's also a pretty fair reflection of how toy companies other than LEGO have performed. I know that previously Hasbro, Mattel, even DC Direct etc. have reported that whatever DC property they've owned/promoted which involves Batman, the merchandise that includes/focusses on Batman massively outsells all of the other DC characters. Even the really great toy lines around shows like the Batman animated series or the follow up Justice League shows had wave after wave of recycled Batman action figures with maybe the occasional villain or other DC hero thrown in at one per wave along with the 10 Batmen/Robins. But those Batman figures just keep selling, kids keep buying them. -

I guess that’s right. Sorry, I was thinking of the LEGO Batman movie sets Which came under their own theme. Either way though, a light schedule for 2021 might still be reflective of Batman movie sets still to come, now delayed along with the film? I’m trying to be positive... -

It might be worth considering that this is the DC superheroes line. If LEGO plan to also release sets specifically linked to The Batman movie, they might come under a different category. Before the filming delays, any The Batman sets could have been scheduled for 2021 in addition to these sets? -

If this does turn out to be real, it’s certainly great news. I’ll really look forward to having this and the UCS Batmobile sets together. So long as the two sets are complimentary in terms of scale then that’s great. If they went with complimentary as a theme, then it would certainly make sense to have three figures. A repeat of the same three figures doesn’t seem to make sense. So...if you look at the Burton films as companion pieces, maybe Batman, Catwoman and Penguin do make sense? -

I’ll take whatever they come up with. Seriously fantastic design. Ditko was a genius. -

I'm sticking with my original and only two requests/ideas of The Creeper and Deadman. Both are do-able with no new parts, just some printing. Easily my two favourite character designs for DC. However, coming a close third might be Adam Strange. Good call.
