  1. Hulk with just plain grey legs in the logo borders on comical.
  2. X-Mansion is a get. The other sets from today aren't, I meant the airport I'd probably be interested in if I'd didn't get the initial better version. £280 for the mansion apparently.
  3. Or if they actually included one of the animal they're dressed as.
  4. I think if they'd added black, it would make sense with most of the torsos in series, better than purple or orange.
  5. So the CMFs for 2025 are January: Series 27 May: F1 Series ( can we even call it a CMF? Since the M stands for Minifigures not mCars?) September: unknown. And it's unknown if the Sept series will be licensed, Themed ( like series 14 and 26 and so on) or just a traditional series. The thing is with themed and especially licensed series is that often you either like the theme or licence or you don't. Whereas traditional series tend to have at least something for everyone simply because they have that variety. So whilst I'd like a theme or licence I'm interested in over a generic series, I still think I'd prefer a traditional series overall because a license has a reasonable likelihood of being something I don't care about (and we've already wasted one slot on F1 imo ). So I guess I'm hoping the unknown series is just plain old series 28 unless it's something epic like a classical mythology themed series or a Doctor Who licensed one.
  6. Brilliant likeness
  7. This is great.
  8. On about turtle again? Remember what Kylo Ren said 'Let the past die, ban it if you have to'
  9. I think they were hoping that the new film would push IJ to the forefront of pop culture in a way that it, uhh, didn't.
  10. Everyone ? ..................................... ......... .............. ................................ ............. Anyways I've been doing that for a while actually. I mean the Alfrid/Alfred bit was meant for the LotR thread and was a mistake putting it in the IJ thread but migrating my less serious replies to this less serious thread is intended. ............... ........................ ...................... .............. You wanna talk to her? Yes! Go on Orpheus? Yes? Don't come on too strong Come home with me Who are you? The man who's gonna marry you I'm Orpheus Is he always like this? Yes I'm Eurydice Your name is like a melody A singer, is that what you are? I also play the lyre Oh, a liar, and a player too! I've met too many men like you Oh, no I'm not like that
  11. Welcome to the best part of your lives Go ahead and rest wherever you like I got you, don't worry Circe's got you now Only I stayed outside, but the rest went in Take a seat Let me bring you all something to eat I bet you're tired from the years spent on your feet I got you, don't worry Circe's got you now By the time they ate, it was far too late For inside the meal (Think of your past) She had cast a spell (And your mistakes) They began to squeal (They'll be the last) And grow snouts and tails (Mistakes you'll make) She changed them I got all the power, yeah, I got all the power No, I'm not a player, I'm a puppeteer No, I don't play, I puppeteer, yeah They transformed (This is the price) And it wasn't quick (We pay to live) She turned our men (The world does not) From men to pigs (Tend to forgive) She changed them I got all the power, yeah, I got all the power No, I'm not a player, I'm a puppeteer No, I don't play, I puppeteer, yeah
  12. But you know it too now!? We'll share a cell?
  13. It was Alfrid (not Alfred) that was the greasy advisor in the Hobbit movies. Don't make me tap the sign.
  14. New animated Dick and Jason movie announced.
  15. Venomised Aunt May sounds pretty cool actually.
  16. Green mech wouldn't have to lantern though, it could be Riddler, Killer Croc, Green Arrow, Poison Ivy, Power Ring, Metallo, Martin manhunter, Artemis ( though there are many DC characters called Artemis), Ambush bug, Beast boy, the Top, Swamp thing, Green flame (Fire), Brainiac, B'arzz O'oomm, the Prairie Witch, the Emerald Empress, Count Vertigo, Mirror Master, Matter Eater Lad, Amazing Man, Amazo, Icon's cape's mech, Blight, the Green Gargoyle, Emerald Dragon and so on.
  17. That was a set I wish I got, though TBH I don't hate the sequels but I don't adore them either so I think I'd prefer the similar craft from the Mandalorian season 2 instead for a new release. £85 - 7 minifigs ( Boba with black robes), 4* Stormtroopers, Mortar Stormtrooper, Incinerator stormtrooper ( I know they weren't any incinerator stormies in this scene but TLG doesn't worry about that all the time anyway) For actual sequel sets, a Max's Castle interior set could be cool, give us some of the weird background characters like the Crimson Corsair, Bazine, the Dowutin ( I forget his name), @QuiggoldsPegLeg, and then say old Han, Rey, Chewie, Maz and Fin.
  18. This is brilliant.
  19. I made they were intended as canon when they were made and they are canon now , there was just a slight blip in the middle (where I was was headcanoning them as canon anyway).
  20. It was Absolute cinema. Videyo, Hidden side, are you saying they were before thier time? I get that we're being insane here but let's not go to far. Okay in all seriousness if Zach wanted that to be motivation he should have shown Robin, not just the suit in the background. Knowing how over the top edgy he is he'd probably have just started the film off with Robin 's death. I mean people moan about Luke being done dirty in TLJ but at least there they show you why he's disillusioned and jaded (as apposed to the other continuity where he's Mara Jaded). Zach made Batman betray what he stands more and left the supposed justification in the subtext? ( And my main problem with jaded Luke is why he made a secret map to guide people to his location if he doesn't want to be found? But that's more of a TFA/TLJ schism) Zach said he based BvS off Dark Knight Returns, but other than the aesthetic and the idea of Supes V Bats fight it really doesn't fit. And the aesthetic is pretty hard to see when the movie is so dang dark all the time. I mean Dark Knight returns is literally the comic where batman snaps a gun over his leg and declares them the weapon of the enemy. The reason Superman and Batman fight in the comic is because they're old friends driven apart by ideological differences. In BvS it's because Batman is just out for Clarks blood. I mean is he now on the alt right blaming all the worlds problems on immigrants? (superman) or is he the the world's most gullible detective lapping up what Lex is feeding him. If you took away the batsuit and the name Bruce Wayne, he would not be recognisable as Batman. He isn't even really all that heroic until the after the Martha scene. And knightmare stuff was convoluted sequel bait, does batman have prophetic dreams now? And of course Batman wouldn't need a gun in that situation, he's the goddamn Batman. If you have to show him killing ( which is better avoided) he can do it without a gun. Even the worst animated movie (Batman Ninja) doesn't mess batman up nearly as badly (though the plot is as much of a mess as the Zodd Doomsday thingy's face). Like a mediocre superhero story isn't hard to write but they did even worse and just made a straight up bad one. Okay I could go on but I've moaned about BvS long enough, I think you get my point. If it's bad enough one film can definitely kill a franchise. A lot of people weren't happy with the direction of MoS ( which did at least have a coherent plot) and BvS doubled down on its flaws and though BvS wasn't the final nail in the coffin, it was still time to call the hearse, and imagine it could still have been worse, and then it could've been bad enough to end the synderverse. Also some pointless optimism but we have sometimes gotten fig leaks before set names so there is still the potential possibility that this is from an as of yet unknown Superman film set.
  21. So do we think the Bo/Jango helmet is gonna be a 2 in 1, 2 separate sets or a case of mistaken identity? When did 3 figs and an astromech in a £70 set become best case? Okay it's not worst case, but best case, really?
  22. I gave it a 7. It's a cool looking thing, accurate and but the price and incomplete nature of the scene bring it down. Intended or not Huttslaying is exactly what she did whilst wearing it.
