    I was actually just thinking today that I wish Jokerland had more of a 'build' and less play features, but I think the play features would be right up a six-year-old's alley, I'd go with that for sure if he's been eyeing it. Plus, it's the only place a lot of the Teen Titans have shown up!

    I don't think John's THAT odd of a choice, given that there's a whole generation of fans who came up on John Stewart being THE Green Lantern in Justice League and JLU...but yeah, even that was a decade or so back.

    Nice, can't wait to add Stewart to the collection. I wish they'd make some pieces like the transparent armor from Nexo Knights, something that can be worn - would remind me of the old Total Justice action figures from back in the day lol

    For real, maybe it's because I'm old enough to remember when Lego didn't have ANY licenses, I'm always just stoked a minifigure exists, and if it isn't is detailed as I like it to be or doesn't look the way I like, I find half the fun to be customizing it. Maybe that's just me tho.

    It's funny, cause I really, really like the Riddler's suit/body, but the head bothers me due to the off-kilter/center nature of it, but then the older non-hair hats from before look TOO plain to me now - I've been spoiled! lol

    Top middle Scarecrow is my favorite.

    Clayface can get bigger and smaller if he adds more 'mud' to his body, so it's not that I dislike the scale they put him in, but mostly just that I don't want him ALWAYS that big. Plus, I'd like to have him in my Arkham when I build it and he'd never fit at that scale lol Yup, I was thinking about two yellow slopes as well, I just really, really like the printed eyeballs lol Probably gonna work on a Mixel-sized/based one this week as well!

    Does the 1x1 cheese slope (I think that's what I'm thinking of) come in nougat? Cause the eyes are the only piece I think may be too big when Clayface is scaled down. If there's a nougat 1x1 cheese slope though, eyes could be printed on the side of that by us and then a smaller version made. I also wanna make a smaller version with an orange Arkham jumpsuit as a gag

    Could print them out in grayscale? maybe even shrink it a bit before printing?

    Mostly want to pick this up for the red cowl, but will defnitely be throwing a random head/hair on the Tears Of Batman to make another random Joker thug (like I did with Mime )
  11. retrotaco
    Wow, will be entering for sure, prizes like that, worth throwing an entry in!
  12. retrotaco
    Has anyone done any MODs to Clayface to make him a little more bigfig or Mixel sized? He's just soooo massive compared to the minifigs lol
  13. retrotaco
    Aaaaaah they never finished the New52 designs and now we're getting post-Convergence designs my poor little nerd heart can't take it

    My guess would be that they're banking on the familiarity of John over the other GLs (to the general public) will help move units, while AFOLs will pick up a Green Lantern based set no matter which Lanterns are in it? If you don't mind the lack of details the Mighty Micro Flash is a pretty decent Wally West JL Flash

    I love the Green Eyes too - without a domino mask, he looks 'depowered' without the green eyes IMO
  16. retrotaco
    Yessss hopefully this means we'll see some more Lanterns soon! I wish we could have a new hair mold with him, preferably something to look more close-cropped or trimmed, like John has sometimes and Falcon had in the MCU, but I'll be popping it off and making him bald anyway haha EDIT: It's expected, since this is a bonus fig, but the non-dual molded legs are meh. Oh well, at least he'll blend in better with Hal's legs lol

    Did Anarky ever make the list of 'B-C Level Villains Not Mentioned"? Was looking at his classic costume and Arkham Universe costumes and both would make pretty cool minifigs IMO. Sidenote, I LOVE that Batsignal, Polka Dot Man and the Batsignal will definitely get me to snag that set.

    There's definitely a precedent for children's movies being based on unabashed horror, see; all the fairy tales the Disney movies are based off of
  19. retrotaco
    Yeah, I'm just trying to stay happy lol - before all the sets/CMFs got released I assumed it'd take a small fortune to get a bunch of Arkham suits and GCPD...but at least the CMFs helped with Arkham suits and female GCPD officers!
  20. retrotaco
    Eh, $12.99 isn't too bad, you do get three minifigs and some random pieces, that's not too much more than 3 CMFs :/

    The Brickheadz do absolutely nothing for me, so that'll help my wallet out very much lol

    I feel like we, as Mixel fans, need to continue to create our own custom tribes...if for no other reason than Lego might steal our ideas and bring Mixels back! I'm going thru the paaaaiin-staking process of organizing my entire Lego collection for the first time in like 20 years, but once I'm done with that I've got a few tribe ideas I wanna get crackin on...

    How have I forgotten her, that costume would be soooooo good. The DC Superheroes Thread stays pretty active, and I think there's one for the Superfriends line as well :)

    Green Lantern, Sinestro and Deadshot don't bother me too much cause at least they got printing, they don't look as plain. I'd love to see legs with blue-jean printing on top and brown on the bottom, since Man-Bat is usually shown barefoot (I'd also love to see his arm and head pieces in white so there can be Kirk Langstrom and a Man-Bat army but that's another day's discussion lol) I'm shocked there isn't a green/blue combo yet we could use for Martian Manhunter, any of the CMF's or Dimensions minifigs have the green top/blue bottom dual molded legs? Same with Captain Cold, light blue top/white bottom seems like a combo that would have popped up by now :/
