  1. The Scarecrow set should be waiting for me at home after I finish work, can't wait to get building! Yep love that Juniors set. I really want the Lex from that set but can't seem to find him for single sale anywhere yet so may just pick the set up as a whole and sell the rest of it or keep it back for some spare parts! I can't imagine buying Lex by himself would save me a huge amount compared to what I'd get with buying the whole set. Got a couple of those fountains to shift too!
  2. I love this gives a great lighthearted feel to it all. Just looked at the other pictures on your Flickr of this MOC. Spidey was a great addition and you nailed it using his alternate head to give some expression to him, but the bit that made me laugh the most was the guy getting caught out sitting on the toilet! Love the Ultron sentry sending some post whilst it's all going on around him too. Thanks for sharing, loads of bits to look at on this!
  3. Couldn't agree more. I admit I buy minifigures a lot more than I buy parts, but when I was first getting into it all eBay was my main source, until I discovered Bricklink and took the plunge. Would never look back! Way cheaper than being scalped on eBay or potentially getting a dodgy fake (the places seems to be rammed with them now!) and 9 times out of 10, Bricklink has been way cheaper for me to get the rarer bits I need, not to mention much easier too. Like you say, it's full of Lego loving nerds who seem to be spot on with what they supply!
  4. Most likely bet would be the Eye of Agamotto - it's the same as what he's wearing round his neck. Looks a little diff from what we've seen in pics of Doctor Strange released already but we've seen how some artwork can differ from what we've seen on screen etc.
  5. Awesome! Thanks J2G. Love that logo.. will love the set even more though obviously! Can't wait for a pic. Brace yourself.. snippets are coming!
  6. Definitely! Both cars/karts whatever they are called suit the characters down to the ground and stand out compared to the rest. For me anyway! Haha don't worry I get your Flash nerdism! I've just had the Flashpoint graphic novel delivered, just need to get through World War Hulk first!
  7. Love / Hate! Like everyone else I like the option of being able to leave them off but I tend to apply most of them (Giant Man would suck without any stickers for example!). I don't tend to be too bad at putting them on but it does take me an absolute age sometimes. My eyesight can be a bit blurry when I don't wear my glasses and they tend to stay in my car so I don't forget them so sometimes I get caught out and it takes me extra long!
  8. That was my favourite Mighty Micros set out of all of them.. !
  9. This set has been discontinued but Smyths Toys might be your best bet in store. Would save you going to the likes of eBay where they'll be marked up.
  10. I actually really want to see that haha. Sorry to hear you got a bad figure though, did you contact Lego direct? I'm assuming they'll send the correct one out for you to save you bag feeling again.
  11. Haha I know the feeling! Me and my other half are saving now and getting everything straight so we can get a place but whilst there's still some 'disposable' money that can be spent it's Lego Lego Lego :). Amazing work on the 4 bridges, all looks fantastic. Do you have plans on how you're going to moc it more?
  12. Argos need to update their website! Got to wait until August to get this even though it'll be in hand! Maybe I'll sneak it out early .
  13. Looking forward to it arriving - love those Blue Beetle and Killer Moth figs!
  14. 76054 Scarecrow Harvest of Fear, 76056 Rescue from Ra's al Ghul, Cap America, Black Widow, Bats, Supes, Poe, Finn and Rey keyrings (damn you BB8 for being sold out!) aaand got 2 free fountains. Not sure if I'll keep one yet, probably not.
  15. Doh! Thought I'd finished my Lego spending for this month but ended up ordering the Scarecrow set and the Ra's set.. although my other half has paid for the Ra's set and will be put aside for my birthday. Chipping away at these new sets... love them all!
  16. Yeah he's definitely a cool addition! Wish we got a BvS Alfred as I really liked him. Just had a refund from cancelling my car finance that I didn't expect... REAAAAAAAAALLY want to go get the new Scarecrow set!
  17. I can't remember if it was confirmed or not but I thought someone said a good few pages back that the hair was unfortunately the same piece (not colour - but type) as we got with Magneto, Doc Brown, Joker etc? I wonder if it'll be the exact same one they used with Ra's al Ghul? I thought Supe's hair looked good though!
  18. Glad to see you liked it overall! I agree with your cons, mainly the stickers and fragile part. The amount of times part of the Wayne Manor build fell apart or came loose when I was trying to build it annoyed me but I wasn't sure if it was because I was being heavy handed or because the surface I was building on wasn't a table for example. I feared sticking the helipad stickers on too! The worse sticker for me was the bat turn lever one on the car out of all of them! Who's your favourite fig out of the lot? Mine has to be Bats.. I love that printed cowl! Joker is a strong second for sure then probably Riddler for my third.
  19. Ouch! But amazing at the same time! Cheers for the pics - I like the mech even more now!
  20. Me too! I liked it from the off, it's getting a lot of stick though. The bridge was my main purchase for sure over the 2 but when I couldn't see it in the shop I was ready to grab the Doc Ock mech until out the corner of my eye I spotted the last one up on the top shelf! Looking forward to seeing that big bridge moc.
  21. Don't mention Smyths.. the closest one to me currently is an hour away on the train up into London! That said though they are building one next to my work (literally.. I can walk there in 2 minutes max!) which should be open by the end of the year.. love it! But I'll be broke haha. Apologies.. off topic. Have you picked up anymore of the new sets yet? So tempted to pick up Doc Ock mech but think I should wait until next month after getting the 2 sets the other day.
  22. Haha that's true. Getting these now instead of August makes up for not getting Target cubes!
  23. Sadly not :( don't know why the release dates are different.
