The minifigures look really good. Can anyone more familiar with DnD remind me what each one is supposed to be? I can't find the original list.- 313 replies

Batman (DC Superheroes) 2024 - Rumors & Discussion

Plus Lock-Up for villains, then Montoya, Bullock, and Summer for supporting characters. They aren't likely, but the Orient Express has a torso which looks like Summer if anyone cared enough to make her. -
Batman (DC Superheroes) 2024 - Rumors & Discussion
SoupOrFishOil replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
I think Wonder Woman would be more likely to be the extra alongside a DCEU Batman if they did release a Batmobile. She shared much more significant screentime alongside Batman, the movies she was in were more appropriate for general audiences than most of (all of?) Harley's, and Gal's WW was a phenomenon with the first movie. Wondy's only downside is that, unlike Harley, she is a non-Batman character. But it's not going to happen anyway. At least I think it's more likely that we get UCS versions of the Batmobiles from BTAS, Batman 66, Batman Forever, the BAT, and possibly even Batman & Robin's Batblade before they revisit the DCEU. People need some distance to become nostalgic for that version, if they ever do. And they can always rerelease the Tumbler with minimal changes again rather than do something new. :P -

Batman (DC Superheroes) 2024 - Rumors & Discussion
SoupOrFishOil replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
Has anyone found or made a list of all of the character silhouettes in the skyline? In this picture I see Robin, Batgirl, Alfred, Riddler, Clayface, Catwoman, Mr. Freeze, Summer Gleeson, Penguin, Gordon, Montoya, Bullock, Two-Face, Scarecrow, Ra's Al Ghul, Harley, Ivy, Condiment King, Clock King, Joker, Bane, Killer Croc. Arkham (and possibly other?) buildings are covered, but elsewhere it looks like Mad Hatter, Baby Doll, a third figure (I think someone said Lock-Up?) are all in there. Is there anyone I'm missing? I'd imagine that Man-Bat is probably here somewhere. And Phantasm should be since the survey leak indicated she was going to be a minifigure. It makes sense that she would be referenced in the set somewhere. Also: hopefully Mr. Freeze's silhouette is an indication that the minifigure in the Batmobile will have an accurate dome. I really don't like the spherical helmet for him. -

Not just that set. The Ninjago City (plus a few Monkie Kid) sets have a number of stylized urban buildings at a playscale. Not everything which is in the art set would be included obviously, but those type of sets are really good at including a number of locations at a pretty good level of detail. As for exactly what that would include I don't know. But I think the GCPD, Wayne Enterprises, and Joker's Amusement Park would be good choices for the "meat" of the set, and then they could fill in with a few more minor locations (A hideout for Ivy, Mr. Freeze's lab, a diamond shop, a radio station, Veronica Vreeland's apartment, etc.). I get that the art set offers something unique though and that they have at least two large sets like what I have described out already, so a third Batman one might split the market. (But I think BTAS would offer something more unique from Ninjago and MK than they do from each other, so hey.) And then obviously there wasn't a very high budget for the minifigures, given that we only got four of them, and Catwoman's arms really should have been dual-molded. I'm also glad that this set allows them to incorporate the red sky and police blimps from the show. Those either woudn't be included in a play set, or would be referenced in a way which would probably be silly. -

I like it. A Ninjago City styled set would have been cooler, but this is neat. Only a few cons: There are too many stickers. This is basically an Art set, and something about stickers in an art set doesn't seem right to me. I don't like the tiles with the characters on them. The gray silhouettes on white tiles looks a little tacky to me. I don't really get what they were going for. BTAS was unique for using black backgrounds for its animation cels rather than white, so not only do they look silly but they actually feel against the design language of the show, and by extension, the rest of the set. If they had given each character a few colors (even black and gray!) like the Batman one I think that would look better.... edit: backgrounds are light gray. Still though, they seem too light. I sort of agree that the studded sky with smooth buildings doesn't feel quite right, but it doesn't bother me that much either. The studs' shadows do help recreate some of the gradient that the sky had in the show. Minifigures could have been slightly higher quality...I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for Joker to get his shoes printed or Catwoman to have dual molded arms. It would have also been nice to get Robin or Two-Face or somebody. But hopefully we get more BTAS sets after the Batmobile. The Joker minifigure is actually pretty good I think. And I quite like the face--I think that this is one of the best Joker faces we have ever had. (Though he would look better with a yellow border around his eyes as others have said). I'm not sure why people are saying it looks more like TNBA Joker--that version didn't even have lipstick, and his teeth weren't nearly as discolored. BTAS Joker does often have dark shadows around his eyes in certain shots. Harley's cork gun is a cool reference to Mad Love. Her face is printed on a red head--I hope the printing shows up okay on the final figure. Batman's cape is two-toned! I hope that's in the Batmobile set. I've wanted that for a long time. The Catwoman minifigure is only okay. Not sure if I'll get this set, but if Joker is available elsewhere I'd be happy if she stays exclusive. -

Wolverine's mask works pretty well as a purist solution for Hawkgirl. It's flame yellowish orange below, but now that his mask comes in yellow it can even help cut down on the (absurd) amount of colors the first Hawkgirl figure had. A more accurate mold, and getting it in gold, would be great though! (This figure is only mostly purist--my TLBM Poison Ivy's torso was destroyed, so I ordered an extra while it was still going for reasonable prices on BL and removed the printing from an extra arm. Then the head is just Hermione's with a bit of the white margin from some sticker sheet over the eyes.) -

So the Rebirth Batgirl figure is confirmed then? Not that the figure is that bad (I quite like the torso) and she could be improved with some dual molded legs, but it is based on probably Barbara's worst costume ever. (And probably the worst Batgirl costume full stop, except for maybe the Bette Kane version.) The Joker in the set is probably from the 4+ Batmobile at least, and I do like that figure. I didn't want to buy that set, so if there are some nice bits in the 4+ Batcave that one is still on my radar. Not too upset about classic versions of Harley and Mr. Freeze coming in the same set. And a BTAS Batmobile was a given. The price is disappointing. I would have also liked at the very least Two-Face, but was also hoping for Robin, Poison Ivy, and Phantasm. Ah well. Honestly I might be most excited for the Bat-Mech. Those small sets are fun sometimes, though I don't expect Batman's to be as good as War Machine or Boba Fett's. (I also wonder if this explains why Marvel only got two this wave? And with Batman that probably means all three super hero mechs this year will be black/very dark gray....) I don't expect this set to have a Batman figure based on BTAS/Batman Returns, but I just hope that it isn't the 4+ black suit.... edit: as I think about it, the $15 Marvel mechs the last couple of years do usually have exclusive figures. And when this year's Venom mech didn't, they threw in a bonus figure. So probably the Batman is an exclusive variant or there is a 4+ Joker for him to brutalize with it. :P But I'm guessing its a new Batman since the Batcave and Batmobile both have their figures listed already. I guess I should just be happy that this sounds a little better than last year, if only because we get Harley and Mr. Freeze AND a cheap mech set. So cool. :P -

Assuming we get Mr. Freeze (and I am disappointed by them using the orb instead of a dome), Two-Face in a black and white suit is the only BTAS variant I really want. But an affordable Catwoman (heh), Poison Ivy, Killer Croc, and (finally a) Mad Hatter would all be exciting. We'll see. Anything would be better than last year's minifigures. And I'm always up for a cool Batmobile, even if I wish that we could get more than just that and the Batwing. -

Oh yeah, it's completely unlikely. But his costume is just a welding mask and a gray jumpsuit, so he isn't tricky to make a custom of anyway. -
