  1. Hopefully, it'll just turn out that somebody in Lego's IT updated or changed something (or unplugged the wrong thing), and everybody had gone home for the weekend before they realised that anything was wrong. It'll be interesting if this problem gets fixed tomorrow, when (presumably) everyone will be back at work.
  2. I emailed yesterday, and just got a reply from them: I’m sorry that you’re having problems with LEGO® Digital Designer (LDD). No matter what the specific problem is, usually it helps if you update your QuickTime program to the latest version. If LDD gives you an error message saying you’re not connected to the Internet – even when you are – this may be caused by a firewall blocking LEGO Digital Designer from accessing the Internet. Try changing your firewall settings, or turn off the firewall and try again. The following things can help: •Check http://ldd.lego.com in a web browser •Allow HTTP protocol on port 80 through firewall settings •Make sure the following sites are added to “Allowed Sites” in firewall settings: ◦ldd.lego.com ◦171.20.33.11 ◦assets.lego.com ◦cache.lego.com If you’ve tried that and it didn’t work, please uninstall the LDD program and install again from LEGO.com/LDD So if they are bringing out a new version of LDD, they're not saying so yet. And no mention of why so many people are suddenly affected by it. Hmm....
  3. The Twelfth Doctor / Grand Moff Tarkin hairpiece.
  4. That hairpiece is perfect! It might be better in the darker grey, but the shape is a much better fit regardless.
  5. Does anyone else think we might be getting two waves of Infinity Wars sets, ala Star Wars? With TFA and RO, there was an initial wave tied to the film's release which didn't have any real spoilers, and then a later wave. Might Marvel be doing the same thing, to avoid any Giant-Man-esque spoilers? Four sets for a winter/spring 2018 release, and then more sets for the summer? It would explain Delta's "At least four" comment...
  6. Doctor Strange: Great print which captures his movie and comic look brilliantly, his cool cape, and that hairpiece with white streaks. Also (although not pictured) those transparent dish pieces for his magic: outstanding. Dick Grayson: despite being something of a joke ever since the '66 TV show, TLBM made him fun and sincere, and his minifig sums him up perfectly. I actually prefer the CMF Dick (with the robins on his jumper) rather than the tuxedo, but, as the Eleventh Doctor would say, "bowties are cool".
  7. Delta isn't saying "This is every set in 2018". The very fact that there (may) be less Avengers sets than expected might mean we can expect a BP set (and Ant-Man 2 in summer, hopefully), with most of the Avengers and Guardians in the Infinity Wars sets, but BP (and maybe Ant-Man) NOT in IW sets but in their own sets. If it frees up minifig slots for as many new or improved IW characters as possible, I'm all for it. And for all we know, there may well be a retailer exclusive, or (fingers crossed) a D2C. Infinity War is a big deal for Marvel. I'm sure they will want to cash in on all their popular characters.
  8. Wow, that looks amazing! The gauntlets are a nice touch. I don't know if it's based on any particular version of Solomon (I mostly remember him from Justice League Unlimited), but he looks very recognisable! I think maybe the skin should have been a lighter shade of gray, but the hair and face are very well done!
  9. Storm: iconic Marvel character, that unique cape that just works perfectly for her, and an African female face for custom figures which was way, way overdue. Armoured Batman: Because what DC fan doesn't love "The Dark Knight Returns"? Which reminds me, I must get the Mutant Leader fig in a diorama with this guy...
  10. I'm sure the Doctor Strange set last year had the same issue: it was supposed to be out around Sept / Oct, closer to the movie's release, but shops had the set in stock with the rest of the summer wave around June, but weren't supposed to sell it yet. Some shops didn't know (or care), and sold it early. So I'm guessing the Ragnarok sets were made with the rest of the summer wave, but August is the release date.
  11. No free-roam New York? That's a shame, although I'm sure the game will be awesome regardless. I wonder if we'll get a set with Spidey 2099, same way we got space-suit Batman in the Green Lantern set.
  12. I wish it had Jason Momoa's arm tattoos, but that's mostly because I want to make a purist Ronon Dex from Stargate. I'm sure it'll look better when we get proper pictures.
  13. I like that the Flash has the ability to throw his lightning, like in the TV show, although I'm not sure why Aquaman had the same ability. Does this Aquaman had water magic, like Aqualad in Young Justice?
  14. It's a great Easter egg, and an awesome build. Glad to see they included all three astronauts: Michael Collins too often gets forgotten about. I assume he's the one next to the moon diarama, rather than standing on it.
  15. Could it be the Easter Bunny Batsuit? We've seen it as a torch, but I don't think it's been released anywhere as a real minifig yet. I don't know if Lego's ever had a torch or keyring which wasn't also a minifig.
  16. I sure hope so. Wikipedia lists no less than 26 different characters so far confirmed for the movie, and there may be more yet to be announced (Black Panther, Ant-Man, Wasp, and Thanos's servants, for example). "Age of Ultron" got 6 sets with less than 20 characters. I shudder to think how many sets we'll need to do "Infinity War" justice.
  17. Hopefully it'll sell well, and we'll get more WW sets to tie-in with future DC movies, once Lego sees that female superheroes can be popular too. Just nice to see she isn't flying the plane!
  18. After not getting any sets for solo Thor films before, I'm not complaining. Thor has a good supporting cast, and it's nice that we're getting more characters than if they'd done a single cheaper set like Ant-Man or Doctor Strange. Would have liked the Warriors Three and Odin too, but you can't have everything.
  19. It's her latest comic book outfit, google "post Convergence" if you want to know more. I love the new head. Would they make a new print just for a book, when the old WW head has been so over-used? Maybe we're getting a civilian Diana Prince (without the printed tiara) in this winter's Justice League sets?!
  20. That's the four featured on the prelim box art shown at Toy Fair last month. Does this mean the art wasn't final because of a last minute change?
  21. ... And it's already out of stock in the UK. Cool idea, although I wish it came with more than two backdrops; just the street scene from the box and the shot of the Gotham Energy building which we saw in the first trailer which gave us our first look at the villains. I would have liked maybe the GCPD, Arkham Asylum, the Batcave, maybe a sewer or abandoned warehouse, although maybe you're supposed to use the camera rig with your existing sets.
  22. Oh, I so hope you're right! Harry Potter theme, Fantastic Beasts 2, or both?
  23. Does anyone else think we might be getting an Adam Strange fig in the future? There's a Rocketeer in the new CMF series with a helmet and raygun that would be perfect for him. I know we won't get him this year, what with TLBM and JL, but might he be in a Justice League Action set next year? I know new moulds in the CMF sometimes hints at upcoming figs (i.e. Tiger Woman / '66 Catwoman).
  24. Maybe, but we know there's a new book with exclusive minifig coming in May, and no-one said where the John Stewart fig was going to be released. It could well be an upcoming DVD release; they tend to make figures that the fans want, but which don't figure into Lego's upcoming sets. I'm thinking blue Nightwing and Trickster, to name a few. With Lego Batman Movie sets taking up most of DC's space this year, and Justice League movie sets later, there's no comics-based sets, so comic-book WW and GL variants are ideal wallet bait. Or it's an awesome custom. But I hope not.
