  1. Wow, he just ate up our instant gratification material mindset and used it to his disadvantage. What a waste of time. I hope whatever other set is supposed to come out at this price point is better than what he concocted. EDIT: Just saw the Captain Nemo's post after posting mine. My bad. Ignore this post.
  2. 15 bucks at most. Hopefully. :O
  3. Man, it looks really cool; even better that its a cheap set <3 Even owning it, minifig Bane isn't cutting it for me. Looking forward to this one.
  4. Saw the new Dr. Strange trailer, pretty cool to see that their "WiFi Password" is an actual sticker in the set.
  5. The guy who posted the original concept for the big Ghostbusters Firehouse onto Lego Ideas is the same guy who Lego hired to make a lot of the background bat-vehicle models (including the Bat themes Pirate Ship). He has an account on NeoGAF and when asked about the possibility of these models becoming real sets he said that he doesn't deal directly with LEGO but these models will most likely stay as just little funny easter eggs in the movie. Which is sad because a lot of those models are great. :/
  6. Picked up on a few references towards the end when Batman flies away and transforms the Batmobile into the Batplane Billboard reading: ""Its a bird its a plane, no its just a plane. Non stop daily flights to metropolis." Billboard in the far back reading "Got Meat?" "Lazlo's" A reference to Professor Pyg. Now thats pretty obscure too. Oh and a model resembling the recent Bat Buggy from the Ra's al Ghul set appears in the Batcave scene too.

  8. Haha, the culturally insensitive part had me laughing. Hopefully in the Batman minifig series, but if we don't get it there its essentially the new CMF 16 "Three Amigos" guy with a bat cowl Another great part was the cameo of the "Comic Con Batsuit"from the 2012(?) SDCC
  9. Well, that one was more TDK Christian Bale inspired. It was good for what it was personally. Anyway, here's to hoping for a Harley Quinn variant with the cheerleader's piece in black and red. We got the jester hat version, cheerleader hair in red and blue, and now this terrible swirly piece... but not the most obvious red and black cheerleader hair.
  10. Yeah, they printed the vest to carry down into the hips. Need to see clearer pics to judge it fully but as of now I think that its a nice touch.
  11. Yeah, if anyone isn't following that thread now is a good time to do so. Also, liking the packaging for these Blockheadz.
  12. WHOA! $50. Also, that Harley Quinn shows us that the villains from that one movie photo we got are most likely the versions we'll be getting in the set. (Sadly) I'm not a big fan of a lot of those villain variants (looking at you DeVito Penguin and Billy Dee Two Face) But that Clayface and big fig Bane look promising. :thumbup:
  13. I think thats just what happens when you print flesh onto a purple color.
  14. Whoa! Kabuki twins definitely caught me off guard! Loving the build of Joker's car as it looks very Suicide Squad-ish. I really want that Harley Quinn bat piece. Its so PERFECT! I also love how the Joker's torso and legs look like Heath Ledger's Joker with the pinstripes. I'm so putting the current Joker head and hair on the torso and legs for the all time best Joker fig ever when it comes out. Also 1966 Batgirl for the win!!! Lego didn't do us dirty!
  15. I thought it was Carrie Kelley too until you said they're doing Dick's origin here. Maybe they'll still have a bunch of Robins for comedic support or something. That Joker really is strange but he looks like the Beware the Batman version a little bit and Batgirl looks Animated Series inspired.
  16. Is that Carrie Kelly Robin?!?! Thats a HUGE deal if we get it in physical form! I still feel like purist versions of her work better somehow though Joker looks a bit like the Beware the Batman version and Batgirl looks very Animated Series inspired. When they said this movie is just one long easter egg they were seriously right!
  17. Absolutely, I'll tag you when I get around to making the Kraven fig. Thanks again man. :) And as for Hyperion, its pretty much the same situation as Kraven. The original fig is great but because of Bricks and Pieces not having all parts of a figure available at a time and all they have is Hyperion's torso, I'm looking for a way to MOC up the whole fig of him. I actually really like the whole fig as is but they don't sell all the parts on B&P leaving me essentially with a legless fig. Thanks for the yellow cape idea btw, I'll definitely be using that. And as for legs I've been browsing around but idk yet. Maybe plain red or maybe Deadshot's. Hopefully I'll find a better pair soon.
  18. Ah ok, thanks. I was dreading that they were solely going to be available online. And here are some of the clearest pics of the Dr. Strange figs thus far btw: Dr. Strange: https://www.flickr.c...in/photostream/ Baron Mordo: https://www.flickr.c...ro/28339813891/ The Ancient One: https://www.flickr.c...in/photostream/ Credit to BrickHero over on Flickr :) Mood's head is PERFECT for unmasked Black Panther in case anyone was having doubts. (And so is Dr. Strange's head for Kraven)
  19. Thanks for the info man. And yeah I think it would work better with the fur but yours is really great and shows that it doesn't detract from the overall look without it. :) Also, if I may bother the thread one more time. ;) I am also struggling with Hyperion... Ordered his torso on B&P and have his head and hair from other figs, but does anyone know any better substitutes for his cape and legs?
  20. They have a whole section now on S@H called "Online Only" and they list their selection of exclusive sets online. Weird though since they have some Nexo Knights sets that have been seen and available for purchase in the wild in places like Walmart and Target. That said, I know the Ras al Ghul set is not at Lego Stores but is it available online and in the brick and mortar store its exclusive to like Walmart as well or is it just online?
  21. Cool to see Cheetah using the Tiger Lady CMF hairpiece as expected in the poster but a little strange that its the EXACT SAME with yellow ears. Of course this is nothing to go by since as we know artists of these promo pieces take creative liberties a lot of the time but all of it is interesting to see none the less.
  22. I recently bought Kraven's torso from lego's Bricks & Pieces site but I have no idea how to complete it (well... kind of) I will be using Dr. Strange's head for him as well as a regular black widows peak hairpiece and dark brown pants. That said... does anyone have a good idea for what to use for his fur collar/neckpiece? I've seen people use the CMF Hun's cape but I don't have it. EDIT: Or should I just have the figure be standard and without the fur?
  23. Ooh, didn't look at the Nexo Knights book pieces; they would work well as decoration around the upcoming Sanctum Sanctorum. Also forgot to pick up some Lego Friends watermelon pieces as well as a few other things. Not bad though because I expect most of the things I missed to be there for another time, maybe place another order around Christmas. Anyway, my order says "Cancelled" but that'll change just like it did last time. Hopefully a little bit faster than last time though. :P
  24. Exactly! It would have been the perfect time to use it. The figure is nothing special, but I do like the computer chip piece. This. The figs really are lacking this year. I never get the figs no matter what because to spend $100+ on a plastic figure is ridiculous, but its still nice to know that they look nice.
