This is quick edit I made to make it look bigger and fit my frontpage on Brick Heroes, lol I added the grey minifigs as a background to the official picture which was published on Variety. Just to be sure there is no misunderstanding here.

Polish catalogue said also LAUNCHING IN MAY proof here : http://www.brickheroes.com/2011/09/nouveautes-2012-action-figures-en-images/ W sprzedazy od MAJA

No problem with that, after all, I run french language blogs, and they are obviously not so popular in english speaking areas, which is logical.... About the press releases, they were meant to promote the partnership starting in 2012 between DC/Marvel and LEGO, I still believe that they will start to promote the range officially in January, but that the sets launching will be coordinated with some movie/tv/whatever events during 1st quarter

Would be strange that they release them with so big delay between countries, but still possible under Warner Bros pressure because of their media plans including movies/cartoons, etc...

Double Face is french translation for Two-Face. That charater is called like this here, in comics, movies, etc.....

Well, thanks for the "Random French Blog", blog who brought you those pics in this case Whatever you can say about it, the catalogue page says launching in MAY, as it was also said in the page with the action figures, but nobody even dared to translate that wording "W sprzedeazy od MAJA"...... Then if LEGO press release says January you are welcome to wait from that date and see if it becomes available I like Eurobricks, but sometimes it makes me really sad to read comments like this...... edit : added the pic on the random french bog that states clearly "launching in may" Actually I might use this for a good blog subtitle : "BRICK HEROES : A random french blog", sounds nice to me

Don't forget that this is a small part of the total range. More will come...

Flick Fire missile IS the key feature of LEGO range ahaha, one guy found out it's cool to have missiles, and now they put them everywhere. Expect them in girls range also ;-)

It is not a typo, document I have states that this part of the Superheroes range will launch only in May 2012. A good reason could be that the Marvel part of the range will be available in january, which I don't believe so because I would have some intel about that, or that my part of the world is planned as May, a few monthes after US for example. But I can confirm it is not a typo. Sorry for the poor english, doing my best

You're welcome.... they are very early preliminary, everything is even drawn and not really a picture of some early versions of sets.

Hello, you guys should stop what you are doing now and take five minutes to come visit me at http://www.brickheroes.com for some fresh news about DC Superheroes range (& pics). Confirmed is launching in may 2012 at least in some european countries, confirmed also video game LEGO Superheroes for June 2012.

Well the official press release states "...Through the multi-year agreement starting as of January 1st, 2012..." I believe sales will tell over the time

Mirandir said that back in the old days before this big wave of pics

I Guess they were simply not there, otherwise this well trained photographer would have taken them, no doubt about it......

there you go : http://www.hothbricks.com/2011/09/planet-sets-2012-les-premieres-photos/

I always find amazing how some people here can draw so many conclusions over blurry pics of non definitive and subject to change new sets... Over analysis is really funny but as said before, all those pics are just a very early view of what we might get next year.... About 6212, I love this set and I just think that a revamp should bring some bright ideas and improvements, not just a new box.....

Agree with that, but just disappointed, maybe I was expecting something else, some different colors, some less blocky cockpit, some different mecanism for the wings.... In the end I suppose there are not so many ways to produce a decent X-Wing taking in consideration technical issues, pieces limitations, and price/pieces ratio

I got them also on hoth bricks, and i saved them if someone need them, just ask me

I fully agree with this. In the end, if everybody waits for some nice rebate, the same story like with 10179 will happen. People will never stop waiting until LEGO will withdraw this set from catalogue, then they will freak out and buy it for triple price on BL or eBay..... Great review, nice pics

Actually this typo has been found by a forum member on HFR, I credit him in my post on Hoth Bricks. I just made a clear view of this really stupid mistake from LEGO, showing that the mistake was not only done on the press kit images, but was also present on Brickworld displayed 10221 model.

Well after some thinking, this Hoth Set is a cool starter for a young kid looking for a nice playset. Then it can grow with Hoth BP , some AT-AT, Snowspeeder, and other Hoth based sets to make a nice battlezone. For grown up collectors, this set is just useless, vene for some diorama, as the walls and the global structure is just made for play not display With this LEGO will find some new young fans looking for much more playability (Which is very limited on some sets)

No worries about that, tons of us did not receive confimration yet for a morning order (Europe Time). Anyway if they forget the minifig, a simple call should help to get it. But usually, they do not forget this kind of item, even if not on the final invoice.....

blogged on Hoth Bricks too, I love your midi-scale Mocs, somtehnig cartoonish there, very nice

very nice work, there is a real idea behind this MOC about making it look like the real one ;-) the wings are awesome blogged on hothbricks.fr

Or maybe people are so pissed with 7931, that LEGO decided to calm them down with some better model, proposed as alternate, but much better tant the T-6 itself......
