THELEGOBATMAN

Oh, I missed have missed that one! You're right then. I meant spoilers, not discussion of the series. I already said that I think we shouldn't discuss the media itself.

Look, I understand it all. I just don't know where the drama came from since literally nothing was spoiled today. It was just general talk, yet it felt like something actually had happened on this forum today.

I agree that we shouldn't discuss the series itself, but some people are getting so dramatic lmao

Nothing was spoiled today. Unless you're talking about this in general.

Seeing as it's the CMF after all, I'm expecting the mould to: A) be much smaller than Bumpy B) be held in a minfigure's hand

Benatar just arrived, time to start building I'll probably build it over the course of 3 days to get the most fun out of it.

We've seen the crocodile, now it's time for Throg

There is literally no rumour like that. Unless you can provide a reliable source of course.

Even easier to fix, why didn't they just use a different colour on the torso since it was also a new print? And it would be more accurate in sand green. Such a weird move Lego...

Thanks to Instagram I just notice that the colours of Boba's chest plate and helmet / jetpack don't match How did this even happen, that's just lazy or... I don't even know...

It's already confirmed we'll have 3 sets for The Batman, but that's the only confirmed one. If we don't get sets for Black Adam I'll go do violence to Lego myself.

That gives me hope that they'll actually start making sets for ALL DC movies (unless they're R rated). For example no Shazam! sets in 2019 was unacceptable.

Well I suppose same can be said about the UCS Star Destroyer.

Oh I will I absolutely agree, this and the Bugle are by far the best Marvel sets ever made (or at least my favourites).

I've just ordered Benatar, it should arrive on Thursday. I am so insanely excited

This literally changes nothing. When replying to me you've written "it only takes one person to make a mistake", which is an assumption. But originally you've written "It took 1 employee" and "It was a mistake", which is a fact. You've literally pointed out my mistake and then done the exact same thing. This doesn't seem to be going anywhere, I'll just drop it.

I'll elaborate on that, cause that's not what I meant. I didn't expect the Gunship, to be honest I expected The Mandalorian sets. They couldn't have done anything, as you've said it's not like they'd change their plans. The point is, it was disappointing nevertheless. The catalogue was their fault, so the reveal was also their fault. Or maybe just stop nitpicking when I didn't elaborate on what I meant. That's like... the opposite of what you've actually said: "It didn’t take 20,000 LEGO employees to approve this. It took 1 employee…"

I've literally just written how I think this catalogue stuff went down and suddenly out of nowhere people become passive-agressive like my assumptions personally offended them Well now it's you making assumptions. If you don't work at Lego yourself, how do you know it was one person's fault? Your guess is as good as mine. "How different would the narrative be the morning after LEGO CON, if those leaks had never happened?." That doesn't matter, at all. The "leak" (or however you wanna call it) had happened, so the "reveal" on Lego Con sucked. Simple as that.

The first one is an assumption, I don't work at Lego. But would you really expect a huge company like Lego, with over 20 thousand employees, to let one person make a decision like this? I'm not sure what you mean by the second question tbh. Of course they can update online versions, but the main purpose of this catalogue is to send paper versions of those to retailers, which give them out so people buy more sets. Seeing as they are catalogues for products which release from June 1st, it's only logical that they send at least some of those before June 1st.

Why would they make catalogue pages for those sets in the first place then? A lot of people had to approve those, it's not like a single person decided "alright, let's use those sets in the new catalog." They are catalogues for 2HY, which is June 1st to December 31st. Obviously they have to release not a day later than June 1st.

It's really hard to choose a favourite. The set itself? Probably Chamber of Secrets. Considering the value and how much we get for a certain price? Probably Polyjuice Potion Mistake. The least is obvious - Fluffy set. The build is laughably bad. Minifgures are the least unique from the whole wave.

To be fair the catalog wasn't a mistake. They release a catalog twice a year - one on January 1st, the other on June 1st. That means that someone from Lego not only approved to market those sets in the catalog, but also hired multiple designers to make those pages for the catalog. Then even more people had to approve it again, and release that catalog. Then on June 1st it just had to release. That means that they approved and accepted the fact that those sets were marketed in their catalog.

Same for me. I really like the new ones, and I understand why everyone thinks they are a huge upgrade - but I loved how goofy and colorful the ones from the 1st movie were. But I'll judge them properly when we see them in motion.

I absolutely agree, Thorin's headpiece puts Wanda's one to shame.

Or maybe they just didn't get the concept art for Presidential Loki? Why do people draw conclusions so quickly lol.
