Why is it only became known now then? When image first surfaced nobody said it was a retail exclusive. -

since when is Doctor Strange a retail exclusive? It's just coming out later than the rest of the summer wave, but it's not an exclusive. -

So Lego Batman Movie minifigure series is confirmed after all! Nice, hope this series will provide us with unique and cool version of Bat suits, not sure if it'll include other characters. -
Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion

Wow this designer has done some fantastic work on all his sets, and considering he only worked in Lego for 1 year, he is a new celebrity designer in Lego! Considering that in my opinion Airport Battle and Bridge Battle are 2 of the best Superhero sets( both Marvel & DC) , I expect great sets from him in 2017. "Guardians 2" biggest set? Hmm... -

Wow 110$ for Rebel Frigate? Lego really gone too far with this price! Only 5 minifigures and not that interesting build for this price? The price is too much, for this set. Sadly I might have to skip this set. -
Spider-Man Homecoming will definitely get 2 or 3 sets, Thor Ragnarok might go Dr Strange route and get 1 medium sized set. Guardians 2 sets are a sure thing! Hopefully we'll get more than 3 sets original movie had.

Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion

Just got Ghost Rider/Hobgoblin set and it's awesome! Minifigures of both Hobgoblin and GR are highly detailed and true to their comic book versions, the builds are good, and even "filler " street corner doesn't look unnecessary , something that usually happens to side builds. New web piece for Spidey is very usefull, and trans clear holder is great addition to superhero line( Iron Man looks great with those! ). This year in particular Lego has been killing it in Marvel superheroes theme( shame same can't be said about DC) : Airport battle, Bridge battle, Ghost Rider. Hope they continue this trend in 2017 ! -

Now that's a nice set! A lot of cool new pieces, neat build and awesome minifigures. Love that Doctor Strange has new head, knowing how much Lego loves reusing old heads I was sure they will reuse Tony Starks head. Mordo and Ancient One look good as well. So overall a great year for Marvel Superheroes theme: Airport Battle, Bridge, Tanker Takedown and now Doctor Strange set! -

Wow this bridge is awesome! Great job, Brooklyn Bridge is now complete ! Really nice combination of 4 bridges, unfortunately I will be able to buy only 1 for now, maybe second when it goes on sale. But anyway looking for further updates of the bridge. Keep up the good work! -
Book of Monsters is definitely Monstrox, probably cursed by Merlock. I mean if you read BoM it's heavily hinted at. Back to the topic, I hope in next season BoM finally ditches Jestro and gets a new "owner" , so new bad guy means new monsters like water or tree based seen in the Book itself.

Yeah, I noticed that too. She look very plain, I wonder if Jyn even has torso printing under poncho piece? -

2 of Bridge Battle sets make great full Brooklyn Bridge! Plus some money can be saved by selling extra minifigures. Win-win situation. -

The minifigures of Rogue One sets are phenomenal! Much better than that poster Lego released a while ago. Tank troopers and Deathtroopers are outstanding, Shoretroopers- not so much. Also Lego Really put all their eggs in 1 basket by putting all main good guys minifigure in U-Wing set, sure some other rebels are in other set , but still strange move by Lego. As for the builds themselves they're ok, Tank is a must buy set for me. AT-ST is a big improvement over 2007 one, so I'm considering getting it, the rest of the sets don't interest me that much. Overall builds wise Rogue One sets are worse that TFA initiall wave, minifigure wise on par with TFA. -

Wasn't it Toys r us exclusive? -
Here you go. He looks really stupid without his mask, especially with that typical bad guy goatee. Edit: Sorry couldnt upload image

Just got General Magmar's Siege a Machine set and it's pretty good. The minifigure selection is excellent ( Flama and Magmar stand out), and build itself is good. Siege machine looks batter in full battle mode so it doesn't look impressive in ground mode. The functions are good, and Clays robot horse is great addition. Overall you get a good value for your money.

This A-wing pilot is definitely a cool minifigure, but why isn't he included in Vaders TIE Advanced set? He would fit perfectly in that set and add another much needed minifigure. -

not sure it's fair to ask this question before summer sets are released, so I can't say since I don't own any summer sets yet. So Airport Battle is my favorite set. -
LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors

I completely agree with some points people made in posts above. Since last year price per piece ratio in SW sets has been far off. I somewhat understand why they overpriced TFA set( hype for return of SW), but trend of overpricing is continuing the n 2016. First half of the year sets with 2 exceptions was pretty fair priced, but the same can't be said about summer sets. Vaders Tie- 20$ overpriced, CTT -20$ , Rex's At-Te-20$. Encounter on Jakku isn't that overpriced, but builds size doesn't justify price. X-wing is still overpriced, but price is the same as 2015 set-ok. Only Freemakers sets are great value, both being lower than 10 cents per piece. The amount of minifigs in sets also pretty bad:3 biggest sets Vaders Tie, CTT, Rex's At-Te have too little minifigs. 90$ Vader set should at least have 1 more minifig like Zeb( who only ever appeared in 1 set), CTT should at least add 2 more Clone troopers, At-Te should also add 2 more minifigs and clones helmets. The rest of summer sets have fair amount of minifigs in them. -
What Marvel/DC Characters Will NEVER Get Minifigures?
benderisgreat replied to Suspsy's topic in LEGO Licensed
I'm going to state the obvious: more x-men and F4. Marvel isn't interested in promoting these characters anymore. -

Thanks for the pics! Hobgoblin is my favorite Spidey villain ( those who grew up watching 90s Spider-Man cartoon will understand), and his minifigure is awesome! Head printing is especially spot on, torso is highly detailed, that's the most I could have wished from this minifigure. His glider looks cool, even though it seems much bulkier than Green Goblins in Bridge set. Overall can't wait for June 1st to order this set from Amazon .
