I doubt it, it's highly unlikely any LEGO employee would go to Eurobricks for set ideas and if they were going to they had like 4 years before we all snapped to do so, the only way fans would influence LEGO is if it started rippling out onto more general places like YouTube and social media as fans for LEGO Clones or Lord of the rings did for ages before they came back. It was simply never up to us, there are forces beyond us we can never change, A is A, Luthor is Luthor and LEGO needs a relevant movie to even consider making anything now

Fair, Winston Churchill famously almost destroyed the entire toy industry as he hated the fact no toyline included a figure of him, he was assumed to have finally stopped this quest in 2011 when he got a figure in the Character Options Doctor Who line. It seems it was only a temporary measure if he is influencing LEGO now.

Not a fan of Kallus's theory IDK how you've not got one yet, the Riddler is in so many sets ANY Ways we need to TALK about this! This image shows extreme Dummy abuse occured on the set of the LEGO Movie, this is why the Dummy didn't return for any of the other movies and the production covered it up. WE NEED TO BOYCOTT LEGO

I love him but I dare you to look at that figure in the eyes and tell me you'll be able to sleep soundly tonight. McGann looks like he's had his head put inside of a trash compactor, both Bakers look like someone's exceedingly racist grandma, Pertwee looks like he just saw death, Troughton is rightfully scared of Pertwee, Tennant looks like Lego Draco malfoy, Davison is perpetually doing a :3 face, Hartnell's mouth is wide enough to eat Chatterton whole and Eccleston looks like a fuckboy tik tok influencer who's about to have allegations come out Scarier than anything in Zagreus Anyways I've now got a voice in my head, probably nothing, he tells me he sits insiymy head, does something and then eats bread. Sounds like a wonderful guy Well there is one other potential option, perhaps some type of appropriately themed Dummy, I think I'm partial to that idea for some reason

I guess I can see that for 3/4 of them, especially the first, they don't call him Wokw-a-dot man for nothing. Oh of course, it all makes sense now, you bastard! He placed in Corn-cob specifically to get the Dummy away from the city Uhhhh, There was a Nick Fury in a set recently, right? Samuel L Jackson is certainly a character and he's from the state DC? Yeah that was a long shot, WAIT technically LEGO made a non-batman DC character this year, they had a version of Clock King in the Skyline, he's a Green Arrow villain. On a technicality what has been driving us insane hasn't really been happening

Have the Ghostbusters ever depossessed anyone? Just saying the people who's strat is "shoot ghost with big Lazer" might cause some collateral damage if said ghost is in a person. I relate to Superman because I can also be killed by a rock My god, the spirit of turtle is more evil than any of us could have foreseen, it's made CloneCommando forget about the Demolition Dummy I don't know if he can survive until the new year with Turtle in his head. Can we think of any loopholes to free him?

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Future Series Rumours
Renny The Spaceman replied to r4-g9's topic in Special LEGO Themes
I like one of these a lot -
Such a cool guy, is there any other LEGO character in one the LEGO Batman games, the LEGO Movie, LEGO City Undercover, The LEGO House, LEGO LEGACY and then some. Oh absolutely it wasn't intentional, I have long since come to terms with the fact I think harder about his character than most people who write him, I don't think anyone thinks too hard about including him in anything but far too often in comics the most consistent character work is likely entirely coincidental Hey, if you don't complain while in Slough we can go somewhere nice after. Like Coventry Market

As someone (potentially the only one) who's read all of Abner's comic appearances a good deal of them are flashbacks and through those flashbacks (likely unintentionally) you see his costume change and him get skinnier. Given the state of him physically and mentally in GCPD compared to his first appearance most people assume that the suit he wears there is just, as Bullock says, some Polka dot footy pyjamas. The narrative that makes the most sense to me with all his appearances is he has his initial crime spree, gets caught and never has the same success again, with less money and him spending more time in bars lamenting his failure and not being able to upkeep his original high tech suit and wearing increasingly shoddier ones until his suit doesn't do anything anymore. After that comes his appearance in the widening gyre where he hangs up his suit as through all his criminal activities he just wanted fame and attention and he isn't willing to commit to the more serious state of Gotham's rouges past the silver age. Then at somepoint later GCPD happens where he's now not in a good state and instead of any grand dot based scheme he just tries rob a diamond store likely because he just needs the money. (From there he joins a team of Z Listers, gets hench again, dies, stays dead for the new 52 then rebirth brings him back and now to this day he just makes small cameos in random books showing he's around and seems much happier but that's not relevant) This is my roundabout way of saying I think all the suits are meant to be different (until he's brought back in rebirth and now pretty consistently wears his OG costume bar his most recent one where he's redesigned to resemble the movie slightly more) Oh wow, way more than I remembered. The film was so well made He's unbeatable, by 2062 every single comic book movie will chose to not include any of the source material characters over Mr Polka dot. There will be a Smurfs and Tintin movie where the cast is entirely him. P O L K A

The original cover is pretty great though the Polka dot man for the film has numerous differences a good chunk of them inspired by his brave and the bold appearance; Unlike the other Z-listers they didn't keep him buff His black void eyes are replaced with multicoloured ones with one that make him look like he has pink eye His helmet is shaped completely differently The shirt is lower cut The dots are all the same size and evenly spaced He was given buck teeth In my opinion this was all for the better as while I love his original look and the juxtaposition of hench guy in the world's silliest outfit I think him looking like human Spongebob fits the character really well. Yeah, I remember that image of the concept art, as Polka dot man is my favourite DC character I'll always find it funny that photo showed he was included in a movie over Deadshot, very fun. Was Hush also in that image? I remember there were 3 who we know didn't make the cut. Hush feels like he should have been done before
