    Hyperion, over at Marvel.

    Easy there champ. We're getting Civil War sets.

    Of course there's going to be an exclusive Marvel figure. Marvel may not be at SDCC, but LEGO will be, and they're the ones that give them out.

    That's because the Ant-Man set is movie-based. The studio has the right to set street dates.

    Congrats! Really excited about this one; it was my hand-down favorite of the review. Day one purchase for me.

    Huh. Maybe it's just me, but the vast majority of children being of below-average intelligence doesn't seem like a very common-sense conclusion. Unless - and I think this is the more likely situation - one simply defines "idiot" as "someone who likes a thing I don't like." At least be honest about it.

    Oh, and I don't know if anyone else has pointed this out yet, but four new DC keychains have started turning up in LBR stores: Supergirl, the Flash, Green Lantern, and Martian Manhunter.

    I am curious about your statistical methodology.

    June in Europe, August in North America.

    So, in the video, Tim said it's already in production... Might this hit the shelves within the next few months? There's certainly precedent for it; if I recall correctly both Birds and the Research Institute were released just two months after the announcement.

    Well, next year is the 50th anniversary of the show... I smell an opportunity.
  12. tafkatb
    You mean like... this?

    Joe West's Business Beanie! Yes!

    The Ant-Man set was originally scheduled for a June 1st release in the US but might be delayed a couple weeks due to the stability issue that needed to be corrected. Everything else is slated for August in the US, but June in Europe.

    Interesting. At my store they can barely stay on the shelves - the P1 especially, but there have been times when all four of the individual cars have been sold out.

    September 4th. Set numbers, piece counts, prices, and generic code names have been revealed, which honestly is more than I'd have expected at this point. We'll probably get more specifics come Comic Con.
  17. tafkatb
    Yeah, I'd say Bricklink 'em. They're going for less than five bucks each, so if those are the only ones you really want, you're unlikely to find a steep enough discount on the set to make it a better deal.

    I ...actually quite like the Utility Shuttle now that I've seen more pictures. May be my second favorite behind the Starter Set. I'd have preferred if it had a mechanical arm like its 2011 counterpart, but then again that set only had seating for one astronaut.

    Yeah, I'd say an Aja-style Hawkguy is at the top of my want list for minifigures - so much so that I would be entirely willing to shell out for it if it came out as a Comic-Con exclusive. For Widow's hair in Civil War sets, though, I kind of expect them to keep using the new mold from the AoU sets. It's a brand-new piece so I imagine they'll want to keep getting use out of it. (Wouldn't be surprised to see it turn up in City or Creator sets next year too since it's appropriately generic enough.) I tried putting the older hairpiece on the new figure; it looked okay but I definitely prefer the new piece.

    I think Hoskins from the JW sets might work for Pym.
  21. tafkatb
    Well hey, there's a first time for everything! Yeah, we have no proof yet, but just because the previous series didn't have them doesn't necessarily mean the next one won't, any more than the lack of two-tone arms prior to the first Simpsons series would have meant they wouldn't show up there.
  22. tafkatb
    City Square should be up on S@H on June 1st - though it should start showing up in stores this week.
  23. tafkatb
    The first one came out in January of 2012, nearly two years after Grand Emporium, so by that logic I would think a second set would come out in 2017, if at all.
  24. tafkatb
    In the US at least, official release date for the summer Creator wave is August 1st, so I expect them to start turning up here mid-July. Don't know about Europe though. Whoops, I lied. US release date is actually next week!
