    Wizarding World 2024 - Rumors & Discussion

    Sorry to be that guy, but mini-dolls use minifigure hair way more often than minifigures use doll hair. That's been common practice since the beginning of the Friends theme (most men and boys had reused minifig hair) and it just became common over time. Minifigures using doll hair only started to become common in 2023 when Friends did away with rubber hairpieces. But yes, they are completely interchangeable. And the last few years Lego has made an effort to bring their designs more aligned with each other. Now the only major difference most of the time is that mini-doll hair has pinholes on the top. The mini-doll space helmets, however, do not fit minifigures.

    Batman (DC Superheroes) 2024 - Rumors & Discussion

    Kyle was in Lego Batman 3 though. But there is no way he appears next year. Guy Gardner is the only one with a viable shot. If we ever get back to the golden era of this theme and they get over their Lantern allergy I wouldn't put Kyle out of the question. I do think that Star Sapphire, at least, and possibly Jo Mullein and Atrocitus will show up before he does though.

    Batman Brickheadz - equivalent minifigs?

    Yes, many of them have multiple options. It looks like you've done a pretty good job of finding the minifigure counterparts already. Here are a few of my notes: Bronze Age - the three you selected seem right. The bright blue one might be the most accurate not just to the BHz but to the art from the period. Batman 89 - only SH607 and SH899 are based on the 1989 movie. The other Keaton Batman figures are based on the Batman Returns costume. But the BHz is generic enough that it can really represent either. Sometimes the black 2006 minifigure is also listed as a Keaton variant, but that seems to match the suit from the Troika arc in the comics best. (Which, to be fair, was inspired by the Burton films.) Dark Knight - I think you got most of them. There is also BAT024 from the old Batman theme and the SDCC exclusive SH002. Batman vs Superman - As Oky said, this should be SH 217; this figure isn't super accurate, but it is based on the same suit as the one represented by the 8in1. It wouldn't surprise me if Lego decides to revisit this one someday, despite BvS being a complete mess.

    How much are we looking at for another Tumbler. $70 at least? :P A new Two-Face and TDK Joker coming in a retail set is good, at least, I guess. But the last Tumbler was pretty much perfect so this might be a hard sell, especially with current prices. edit: $60 for 429 pieces; not too far off from the BTAS mobile and just seven pieces more than the last Tumbler. We'll see about this. Maybe if it were Bane's and had a bunch of printed pieces, but also I'm excited to see Two-Face in a set again. :P The Superman mech is ridiculous but seeing Superman and Lex again after so long is refreshing. And a 4+ Batmobile for $20...that's much more reasonable than the last one being almost $30 for less pieces than this new one will have. And who knows, maybe it will come with a second figure who is somebody other than Joker. :o
  5. You had me checking the date to see if that was even possible.

    That looks great. Thanks! The ice gun is simple yet effective too. I'll probably steal that.

    Quick question for anyone who has the BTAS Batmobile set and doesn't mind condescending to be sane for a second: I'm curious whether Mr. Freeze's helmet fits on either these pieces. I'm not a big fan of the minifigure as is (I love the BTAS design, but this rendition is just too flat) but I'm hoping that the new helmet will at least allows for some good opportunities for customization. You mean will she get leg printing, a special cape, and anything other than the generic over-the-shoulder hairpiece? :P

    LEGO Videogame Tie-Ins - Rumors & Discussion

    This was a pleasant surprise. I wasn't expecting to see this for months! I agree with pretty much everyone else. It's a neat set, but a weird choice. They must have really wanted the 2-in-1 feature for these two games in particular. The minifigures, new molds, and prints are all really cool. But I'll need to see reviews before forking over that much money for this set.

    Batman (DC Superheroes) 2024 - Rumors & Discussion

    In addition to the RC Batmobile someone mentioned, a couple of the 2013 sets were very loosely inspired by Arkham--well, the one set and a Mr. Freeze minifigure--but the accuracy isn't great. Mr. Freeze doesn't have goggles, and the Arkham facade is really just a passing resemblance to the Asylum in the first game. I don't think it's likely to happen because, beloved as they are, these are video games and Lego is still pretty selective. The Arkham series also isn't exactly what it was 10 years ago. A high budget sequel of sorts releasing this year would make this the reasonable time to do it, but that flopped and the future of the developer is in question. But if BTAS and Ocarina of Time can get sets after 30/25+ years, who knows, maybe someday there will be an Arkham Brickhead or a Batman bust or something. :P

    I still need to see a bit more of this show before I'm sold, but I'm very happy to see Catwoman in her classic purple and green costume. That's a very underrated design which has been forgotten in a lot of modern versions. I'd love to get a minifigure version some day, but I don't expect this show to get sets.

    Very strange. That set was amazing. Versus something like the Sorting Hat which was also in the survey.

    Yeah, Batgirl is an original design. She has the classic batlogo to match Batman and Lego's favorite wig to save money. I think she might have the short cape without scallops too? Weird. And the Kryptonite. Uh, a reference to Superman is better than absolutely no Superman at all ever? Maybe? I don't hate it too much. The LURPs are better than some of the panels the Juniors sets use and there is a good spread of stuff for little kids. (Unlike that overpriced 4+ Batmobile from last year.) The tile on Joker's car is fun too. That has some reuse potential.

    Sonic the Hedgehog - Rumours and Discussion

    Lol, that emerald shrine not including the emerald is kind of hilarious. The sets look good. I like the Badniks. But these are expensive. Tails's new expression being identical to the winking Sonic from last year is bizarre. edit: There's a photo of Shadow and Maria in the large set. That's a wild thing to reference.

    Azrael and Oracle for the Bat-family. We did get Barbara as Batgirl, but if we got Tim Drake as Robin and Red Robin is here I think it's fair. I also think Speedy/Red Arrow doesn't count as someone we got, since he was an SDCC exclusive. Martian Manhunter isn't listed, but Miss Martian I think is better known and more used than a number of characters who are on the list. Not holding my breath for most of these, even with the current state of the theme, a lot of these characters are pretty insignificant. (Lagoon Boy and Aquagirl?) I am sad we never saw a Kid Flash during the heyday of this theme though. A lot of characters can be convincingly made as purist customs, but not him.

    I thought the usual place was r/legoleak now and they aren't there. I completely missed the leak yesterday. :P Instagram is completely unfeasable, unless there is a specific account I don't know about which I'm supposed to be following.
