  1. I picked up 2 more Mirkwood Elf Army sets and another Dol Guldur Ambush.
  2. We really can't fault Lego for not making The Hobbit sets 100% accurate. With brand new films like this, licensees have the disadvantage of having a very limited amount of material to draw from (mostly concept/production art, photos, and occasional bits of footage). Of course The Lord of the Rings sets were "better" in that regard, since the films were 10 years old by that point. For what they are, the new DoS sets are fantastic (apart from the lack of Smaug).
  3. Whoah!! I haven't seen the Wampa Cave on shelves in ages. Nice score!
  4. Great to see that the Chewbacca minifigure features a brand-new mold! I love that he's a lot taller now.
  5. Dr. Cogg, I'll send you a PM with answers to your questions, to avoid unnecessary spoilers in this thread.
  6. Probably my favorite set of the bunch! Can't wait for it!
  7. Looks like they're just placeholder images. Nothing too exciting.
  8. Picked up another Mirkwood Spiders set from Target. At about 45% off, I couldn't resist!
  9. What you're actually saying here is that you'd rather have the Mountain Troll than the Fell Beast. I think you meant that the other way 'round. Anyhow, I'm very much in agreement with everyone here. Eowyn, Faramir, Galadriel, Witch King and Gondorian Soldier are must haves. Someone mentioned once that an Old Bilbo minifigure would be a great exclusive in a DK LotR/Hobbit book, and I'd have to agree.
  10. Nice!! The sets actually look even better than I imagined. I'm very excited that several of the characters appear to be based on their non-Ultimate Spider-Man incarnations.
  11. The microfighters look amazing! I can't wait to get my hands on those.
  12. Wow, Azog and the white warg look fantastic!!! Can't wait to pick up these sets.
  13. Getting really worried that we won't get a 3rd LOTR wave.
  14. Bad Robot tweeted this earlier today: https://twitter.com/bad_robot/status/401077191087095808 Pretty exciting!!!
  15. I'm pretty sure the same mold is being used, but with different printing.
  16. I was rather lukewarm about this wave when we first heard about it, but it turned out fantastic! As others have said, the sheer amount if army building potential means I'll be buying multiples of several sets. I also love the fact that there are so many small-ish sets. Most of the sets in this wave look to be under $30.
  17. The sets turned out even better than I imagined! I'm sure these are going to be an absolute hit.
  18. .....or just pay the $7.99 a month. It's really not that much.
  19. I'm sure the original plan was for a May release, but the recent changes to the writing team necessitated that it be pushed back. I'm fine with that. I'd rather they take the time they need to polish the script than rush it. Bring on December 2015!!!!
  20. Very excited about this news!!! Hopefully they turn out some really great quality stuff. I was hoping for a Daredevil film, but a TV show offers so much more potential (if it's done right). Bring on 2015!!
  21. The new trailer is just too cool!!! Can't wait for December!!
  22. I can't believe the level of detail that minifigures have these days! They look fantastic, but part of me hopes we've reached the apex of hyper-detailed minifigures. Adding arm prints to the Rebel pilot minifigure would almost be too much.
  23. Awesome!!! As fun as the movie looks, I think my favorite part is the way they've pulled off the "stop motion Brickfilm" look. It's perfect!
  24. I received an order of the Series 4 planets from Amazon Spain the other day, and noticed that they are shrinkwrapped! Very interesting...
  25. Thanks for sharing! I hope we get an Aladdin-themed set at some point.
