OhmyGod! Is it true? Are we getting 327th Corps clone trooper minifigures? I assume it'll come with Bly, even though it's a battlepack... I don't even care about the builds that'll come with it, though that gelagrub does look like a nice addition Also great to hear about the UT-AT, provided it will have Bacara, aside from the mentioned 21st Nova Corps troopers Finally I'll have all the prominent Clone Commanders Regards, Mitch

Exactly! I have the first Death Star playset from '08 and though I let it get quite dusty, I'm still perfectly satisfied with it, having collected minifigures over the year to fill up the seats at the conference room table, the configuration/scene I'm rather proud of. Also, if it turns out to be a Death Star II-inspired set, it's a definite pass. Regards, Mitch

A thousand dollar Death Star... that had better be one perfect set. But, then, it'll probably also be huge, so 99% pass for me. Regards, Mitch

Oooh, Soundwave! Personally, I'm not that interested in him, but I'm sure he'll be a great build. And, in any case, this'll save me some money and room for the Transformer after that Regards, Mitch

Nice to hear about the Spider-Verse CMF! I hadn't considered that possibility at all, but it actually makes a whole lot of sense. Aside from Spider-UK, Spider-Punk and Spider-Man India(?) I can't specifically recall the many variants showing up in Across The Spider-Verse, but I do remember there were a LOT of them, so I'm sure this'll be good. Also, what's the deal with those Spider-Man/dinosaur sets? I saw some pictures yesterday or something but they seemed 4+ or even DUPLO-y...? Regards, Mitch

I'm very pleased with this new CMF series! So many new molds, it seems! The parrot and wolf look fantastic and those fluffy thingies look very cute My must haves for this series are: Wolfpack Guy Astronaut-type person Steampunk Inventor Regards, Mitch

I can't believe LEGO's finally making a D2C Arkham Asylum! I hope it'll include themed jail cells and some new characters Regards, Mitch

The Hall of Armor looks like an easy pass. If that's really the MkVI armor, great, but I'll get it with the Marvel Logo (I think). Now that there are better pictures out of the Cap 4 set... great figs, as expected, but that's about it. Will probably also pass. Is the Captain America coming in the Marvel Logo still expected/rumored to be a WWII version? Regards, Mitch

I kinda like the look of that plane, and, as far as I can see, the minifigures look okay. Can't tell if Red Hulk has a moustache or not, though Regards, Mitch

Loving that Superman mech! The minifigure is also really great. I've always been a big fan of the Superman-suit design where he only has a yellow belt. No red belt, no red undies under the yellow belt... So I'm very pleased with this minifigure The Tumbler minifigures look decent. Not too sure if I'll get it yet, but it might be nice to have a TDK Two-Face. Regards, Mitch

For me, it's the Brick Bank. I own three modulars (the others being Parisian Restaurant and Detective's Office) and they're all great, of course, but I just love the architecture of the Brick Bank. The interior is very impressive as well, with the grand chandelier. But one of my favorite features is the money in one of the laundry machines at the laundromat Regards, Mitch

Whoohoo! The X-Mansion looks fantastic! I love the functions they selected for the rooms, they're epic. The minifigures look great too. Not perfect, no, but the new characters at least look amazing Not sure how I feel about the GWP... It doesn't really... add anything to the set, in my opinion. That is, the taxi that came with Avengers Tower created some more scene, while this seems more like two variants of a different thing. TAS Cerebro and Fox-Men Cerebro... It's a nice touch, but meh. Regards, Mitch

Yes, finally some pictures! I have to say, i don't entirely agree with the coloring of the mansion But other than that, the set looks amazing! They cheaped out on some of the minifigures, yeah, but the way the build can disassemble and (from what we can see, so far) the rooms look great! About the Marvel Logo set... is that really a WWII Cap? Doesn't exactly look like it... But I guess that was a long shot, in any case. Regards, Mitch

Just picked up the 75091 Flash Speeder at the Deense Bricks Builders convention, for a decent price Regards, Mitch

Ooh, sounds promising! Regards, Mitch

YES! YES! YES! Here's hoping they'll have classic blue & white suits Regards, Mitch

Good to hear, thanks! I would've watched it even if it WAS supposedly connected to the live action movies (by millions of years or not) but I was wondering how they'd fit that in. Not that, as you explained, there's any logic in the timeline of the Bay/Bee movies now And, yeah, the trailers make the movie look very kiddified, but that's actually what kind of drew it to me, from the beginning. Regards, Mitch

Quick question about that; Is Transformers One actually a prequel to the live action movies, or more a new telling of the G1 story? I've yet too see the movie. It just doesn't play at convenient times for me, currently and I also can't find anyone to go with Regards, Mitch

I could see it happening, though. Like... 40-60% chance YESSS!!! Regards, Mitch

I hope the fact that Iceman seems white is due to the color quality of the picture, 'cause I really think he should be a bit more blueish than pure white... The Thunderbolts trailer looked great! I wasn't that interested in this movie before, but I'm intrigued now. Eager to find out where each of the members' allegiance lie (especially Bucky) A LEGO set or two based on the movie would be great, too! Regards, Mitch

How are you people seeing anything in that picture, minifig-wise? Or am I just seeing half of it? What I do see (a corner of the mansion and the Sentinel) look absolutely great The dark orange is a bit unexpected, but will generally still look great with white trimming(?) and a black roof (I assume). Regards, Mitch

Ooohh, that explains things Thanks! Regards, Mitch

Who the heck is this 'Woof' person that's supposed to come with the UCS? I can't find the figure so I have nothing to recognize it by, and Wookieepedia doesn't know the name... Based on the box picture, the barge looks great, and HUGE! According to the latest info, it's 77cm long. Regards, Mitch

Thanks for the tip! I kinda get why they went with the shoulder pad piece, but I think I'll ditch it, when I get the minifigure... Regards, Mitch

The Battle on Titan would actually be a great set. A little bit of rocky ground, a 'Marvel Sparkle Circle' or two for Spider-Man to swing through, maybe those butterflies Dr. Strange conjures and... some pieces of a moon to hurl at Tony? Regards, Mitch
