The CMF looks good. I’m excited to see clearer photos of all of the figures, as well as their accessories. Also, if they ever decide to include anyone other than Batman in Joker in DC sets, then Storm’s hair is perfect for Livewire. Regarding the discussion about preliminary images of the CMF, we have already seen a prelim image before. Unless this was confirmed to be fake and I just did not know, we got a leak of the The LEGO Batman Movie minifigure series in October of 2016 that was a prelim. It included minifigures who were included in the CMF, some who were made but put in sets, and even one who wasn’t made at all, nor in the movie. I’ve attached the image below. If it needs to be removed, please let me know. I’m not sure how it works with almost seven year old leaks.

If it is the E-wing in the third Ahsoka set, hopefully the astromech is the Kenner one.

I believe the set is rumored to come out in late November, and with the way leaks have been recently, it would probably leak in the weeks leading up to its release, if it even leaks at all. I would love to see it sooner, but we’ll probably have to wait until November.

Jay’s Brick Blog has a review up: https://jaysbrickblog.com/reviews/review-lego-75361-spider-tank/ It doesn’t go in-depth into the minifigures, but it’s nice to see someone’s thoughts. Jay did say it feels small for the price, though.

I think the exact words were that the set would not be coming out this year. I’m not sure why LEGO would release it another year, though.

It’s looks like Joey Tribianni’s face from F.R.I.E.N.D.S. to me. Not sure why they’re not using the new Keaton face for any of these sets.

It doesn’t look like a new Han hair piece to me, but definitely a new torso. It’s nice to get the buttoned-up collared shirt that’s specific for this scene when they could have thrown in the regular Han. Speaking of regular Han, technically I think he’s actually ROTJ, since Han in ANH has a V-neck. Also, it looks like Han might have a new face print. His smile is closed-mouth, so it’s either a new print or the one from Solo. Getting Luke with the accurate dark tan hair color is nice, too. EDIT: @web_wex on Instagram (hopefully I’m allowed to say that) has clearer images up of the minifigures. It definitely looks to be the Solo face for Han. I wonder if that will be the norm from now on. The medals look really good, though.

I just tried, and his snout was too long, it wouldn’t allow the helmet to close. Sorry about that.

Vader does have arm printing. FalconFan has some images with him out of the mech.

I forgot these were $16. Weren’t the original Marvel mechs only $8? Twice the price, double the, uh, price, I guess.

The mechs themselves are LEGO’s mechs. If you like them, you’ll like these. If not, these probably won’t be appealing. It’s good to be able to get (relatively) cheap options for these minifigures, though. I’m still not 100% sure about the new Stormtrooper, but Boba looks great. I’ll be intrigued to see how this minifigure affects the insane prices of the other OT Bobas with arm printing.

On set’s page on LEGO.com, the video at the end of all the pictures makes the set better. The functions look cool, especially the guns popping out of the Batmobile. However, $400 is still too much for the Batwall.

“If I had your giant feet, Out there on that beach, Could’ve outrun those birds.”

Apparently it’s going to be a special employee gift for those at Lucasfilm.

*Sigh* You got me. Hopefully I’m not being too optimistic, but I’m sure it’ll look better than just a box. I think the box is just a way for them to include the bat-symbol-shaped window.

Well shoot. Given that the set was originally going to come out last year before the movie was delayed, and that we got a leak of the torso in October, this set was far into production being cancelled. I don’t mean to put words in his mouth, but at the beginning of the month, Ashnflash seemed to think that the set would be releasing sometime this summer, so this must have been a more recent decision. I wonder why they chose now. Unfortunately there’s nothing we can do now but be puzzled and hope on the minuscule chance that the set will see a later release.

My bad, thanks for letting me know. I had thought the mold included the mini doll head. 👍

I think Triton’s hair and beard are new. It looks like they’re one piece together, but hopefully they’re separate from the head, unlike the mini doll.

Bricky.dee.williams on Instagram posted a story saying that even though there has been a lot of new Indiana Jones merch, it doesn’t seem like anyone is allowed to make the Thuggees. This would definitely explain the Temple of Doom’s cancellation.

I hope so. The Mandalorian didn’t get Gideon until the summer wave after season 2 and The Book of Boba Fett didn’t really get Cad Bane or the Pikes, but Kenobi and arguably Andor had the main villains in their sets, so hopefully LEGO is getting better at including them. Given the popularity of Thrawn and the fact that he will seemingly be a more prominent villain, especially as time goes by, I’m sure he’ll come eventually. I just hope they don’t pull a Rex.

I would be very surprised if he did. The Batmobile is very likely Keaton’s, in which case he would be the main Batman in the set. Supergirl and Younger Barry are probably the next most likely, aside from villains. However, I have noticed that the past three most recent Batmobile sets (the Tumbler, Classic ‘66, and The Batman) have all only come with two minifigures. Hopefully since this set is based on The Flash and not a Batman movie, it will break that trend.

Not sure if everyone’s seen them, but based on FluffySky6’s leaks on Reddit, FalconFan has posted new information: 43222: Disney Castle will have 4837 pieces and comes with a variety of princess and prince couples. There will be a set that comes with Peter Pan, Wendy, and Tinkerbell, and is similar in size/piece count to the Up house. There will also be buildable characters of Lumiére and Cogsworth from Beauty and the Beast, and potentially others. Overall, they sound exciting. The castle will be a good way to fill in that princess gap that we have, and it will be cool to see more buildable characters. Hopefully they’ll be the same quality as the leaked Simba.

Great lineup! Werewolf by Night, the X-Men, and Kang are pleasant surprises. I’m excited to see how they look! Hopefully this means Ms. Marvel will be in the set for The Marvels.

This head also has a sort of frown/determined expression, while the JL Flash had smiles on both sides. I’m super excited to be getting more leaks, hopefully we’re not far away from seeing the whole set.

Legolas’s legs from the new Rivendell set could work well for Leia.
