LEGO Superheroes 2012 Rumours & Discussion
SoupOrFishOil replied to Hinckley's topic in LEGO Licensed
Those were actually my guesses for TDKR, as I doubt we're getting a whole wave. But with only three sets, chances of getting more villians than just Bane and Catwoman seem slim It is just a prediction though -

Me too, that style suits LEGO much better than animated series, though I still liked that too -

Agreed, but I do find it funny how Batman's smiling and Robin's scowling, a reverse from the original minifigures. Hopefully Robin has a double face though.... -

Bane, Ivy, and Robin as well as a larger Batcave picture Love Ivy's new leaf piece (it's just a vine, but nice touch) and Bane and Robin look nice, with the exception of the latter's hair. At least it'll be exclusive.... -

Yes, considering the first press release said the same thing. They aren't scheduled until the Summer though. -

Good point, I suppose we should find out tomorrow -

Wonderful, and we should have photograhped images tomorrow. But really, no Bruce Wayne? I mean, I wouldn't expect him to be spectacular, but only four minifigures in a $70 set? It had better have a good price:piece ratio then.... -

Understood, but I don't think it is part of Wayne Manor, even though that would make more sense. I think it's possible that it is indeed Bruce's study, but underground for whatever reason, probably so that the environment doesn't clash with the rest of the set. -

Maybe Bruce Wayne answers the phone, slides down through the trapdoor, and emerges as Batman? Could be a somewhat complex playfeature, but I'm sure somebody could come up with a way to make it work. Oh, and they're stalagmites. I only remember that because I think that stalagtites have to hold on "tight" to stay on the celing My point is that maybe it isn't Wayne Manor, but rather a play feature. -

Oh, labels not logos. Yeah, I always thought that there was something LEGO-esque about that show and I wish they'd referenced to it more. -

I don't see it Unless that's it on the black/yellow picture of Batman (which I don't think so)? -

Well, actually, I would consider the stop light and newspapers in the Catwoman set and the Bank in the Two-Face set scenery. Oh, a I would also like to ask you what your classic comic book depiction was like. I mean, if LEGO were to go with your classic depiction (much like Luthor) we could get you somewhere other than behind a desk, if the classic depiction is any different. Agreed I actually wouldn't of minded a $20 Batcave, I mean it could of been somthing like this, a batcomputer, tools, changing machine, small vehicle, and five minifigures. One of the press releases said that there would be a wave based on The Dark Knight Rises in the summer, so chances are there won't be any Marvel sets released at that time. And considering that LEGO never said anything about Green Lantern being released (not that I would count him out), that would mean that there are two minifigures from each subtheme missing from the promised list. So, I conclude that there will be one store exclusive for each subtheme, a Batman (and maybe Green Lantern team-up) to get The Riddler and Harley Quinn (Arkham Asylum?), and a Spiderman set for Spiderman and Ock. Except this is on the other side : Credit to Huw at Brickset.com for this photo From what I can tell, it's the same piece from here: I believe that this is the '89 Burton logo, but I would love to be wrong though as that would be great. They are fairly similar in design though. And about the Avenging Cycle, probably a sticker and blue paint job Edit: Just found this, Superman's double face, much nicer than the front IMO: And the NYCCC Superman Giveaway: I would like to point out that it also says Preview Edition! -

I'm sorry I offended you, I only meant that we've been hearing January from LEGO up until now, where your blog says May, which just seemed to come out of the blue to me, I don't understand where you got it from. That's all. Edit: Now is see the "Lancement en MAI", but if you don't mind, I'm still going with the press releases -

Well, apparantly Red Robin wears a cowl rather than just a mask, so that would be Robin in the batcave, but I really couldn't tell you, I'm basically just repeating what somebody else said. -

Could you please post a picture for the people like me who don't read the comics? But I will take your word for it. Your welcome, and yes I agree. Arkham or the Hall of Justice or something like that, Green Lantern could also be included in either of those. Thank you for posting this, I mean, I knew already but others might not remember. We should go by the press releases and not some somewhat random French blog. Oh, and that reminds me, does anybody know if in France Two-Face is know as (or translated to) Double-Face? If so, that might explain it. -
LEGO Superheroes 2012 Rumours & Discussion

Um, correct. Just Harley and Riddler, no Penguin or Croc. Well, onto my thoughts I suppose: 6858 Batman vs. Catwoman-I do like the look of this set, even though I was saying earlier I thought we might get a batcycle here, I honestly doubted it, as a motorcycle is the most sensible vehicle for Catwoman. I do like the jet pack (except the wings will probably be black while the rest of Batman is dark blue) and props such as the street light and newspapers, which I do hope will change to something other than The News. It seems Batman actually does have a reason to chase Catwoman as she has a crystal of some sort. I'd think it would have a worse price per piece than the last Catwoman set, (which was almost 10 cents per piece) but I'd get it anyway. 6860 Batcave-I didn't own any of the previous Batman sets and the only figure from the line I own is Killer Croc, (and a custom Mr. Freeze) so I don't know the old Batcave personally. But from the images, I didn't like it all that much, I mean, sure there were some great parts such as the spinning vehicle bay, costume change chamber, and entryway, but I thought that parts of it were completly non-sensical and a waste of space. I mean, a bat-signal? Really? and then there were a couple sections where there was next to nothing, and a huge cell. And really, over all, it just didn't feel so much like a cave to me. It might just be the background, but I do see a cave in this one. I like the use of a bat-signal as some sort of lamp or other ornament, the weapon wall, bat computer, and I prefer this prison cell, to some extent, at least it's more compact. The vehicles are also nice, not that we get a very good view of Batman's, but I believe that is a Batcycle, and even though I can't really imagine Bane actually riding a drill (not that I'm very familiar with the character) I love it, it's zany and honestly, made me laugh. I'm not disappointed with the choice of figures (though I do hope Red Robin has a double face because I don't like that expression) I would of like to see Alfred and another minifigure. I mean at either $60 or $70 (I can't remeber which) I'd like to have more than four minifigures, is that too much to ask? 6862 Superman vs. Lex Luthor- No new cake pieces? Okay, of course I'm not serious. If you saw my predictions after rumors came out, this was the only set I was spot on with, $20, Superman, Wonderwoman, and Lex Luthor in a mech. I do like the look of this set, but I can't look at it too much because I'm tempted and probably can't get it, I'll have enough on my hands with just Batman. If I have an extra $20 after Batman, I'll be sure to pick this up. 6863 Batman vs. The Joker- No Harley? No buy. Okay, that's not true, I'll get it anyway. The smaller versions of the Batwing and Helicopter do seem just as good, if not better, than their previous renditions. Joker's helicopter is akward and blocky, (especially those purple pieces in the back) but It's actually more stream-lined than the original, sadly. The batwing, doesn't seem too much improved, but I do like the smaller size and what I can see of the back. I wonder if LEGO would think to use that bat-wing tip introduced with the 2006 line for the wings? 6864 Batman vs. Double Two-Face- Anybody notice something purply about the villains? I mean, Catwoman has purple lipstick and lines on her suit, Lex Luthor's wearing a purple suit of some sort, The Joker's wearing purple (naturally), and we have yet to see a finalized Bane. To me that means that Ivy is the only one we know of not to be wearing purple. Well, Two-Face doesn't disappoint in that sense, but really? I would rather not critisize the people who chose the colorsheme for the original Two-Face, but I will question it because purple and orange are not opposites on the color wheel, and therefore do not fit the idea of conflicting personalities, to me. Anyway, Two-Face's henchmen seem to have different faces (from Joker's henchman too!) which is nice, and with time I might get use to the colorscheme, but the orange half looks too much like a prison jumpsuit. The police officer is nice, it seems he has printing on his hat, and his face seems to have a grey mustache and glasses, could it be James Gordon? The downsized batmobile is nice, but now it looks to fat and not long enough, but that could improve. I applaud the use of a newer cockpit piece and my biggest problem is probably the bat-wing tips (which I think they should of used on the Batwing) are up too high. I like the bank, but already have one for my City, so this probably means that it will end up as part of the Batman display I'm planning for a shelf (unlike Catwoman's extras). The bank seems to have a removable window, which is a nice function. I'm somewhat disappointed that they chose to just redesign some of the sets (particualarly 6863 and 6864) as they don't give us newer vehicles for the characters, just upgraded ones. Anyway, I would get them all if I could, but I'll have to draw the line somewhere with these, and that will probably just be Superman (and all Marvel). After these pictures, I'm left wondering where Harley and Riddler are though, I would hope for another Arkham Asylum or the Hall of Justice or something of that sort where LEGO could sneak Green Lantern in too, because why release an action figure, but not a minifigure? -
Great, seems as if they've added a dueling mode too!

I would think he meant not currently, considering that's just about all customer service is allowed to tell you-what's out now. I'm not european, but if I remember correctly, LEGO denied that Space Police III was going to be released outside of the US, but it was -

I actually prefer Wonder Woman like this because if the legs were, Flesh, in the back it would look as though she is wearing a thong , unless they made her the first minifigure with printing on the back of her legs, which I doubt. And anyway, I already think it's generous that the flesh is printed right up to the side of her hip, I don't have too many collectable minifigures, but I don't think I've see that before. Plus, I'd think red would be a cheaper color to produce than flesh. -

Hey, Joker, Catwoman, Poison Ivy, Wonder Woman, Captain America, Iron Man, and Wolverine backprinting Still don't know about Batman, Superman, and Thor because they wair capes, but here are the others: Hope you enjoyed -
Hello! I'd like to request Mr. Freeze's face, the same one from the Batman theme. I only have one request, and that is that the eyes are white instead of red (as I don't have a color printer). Please and thank you! http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110820114219/lego/images/1/12/3626bpb265.jpg Nevermind, I took care of it
