  1. There’s also the fact that other websites such as Reddit are echo chambers and in said echo chambers Clones are supposedly the coolest thing ever. Thus pressuring newcomers into buying more and more clone sets so they get lots and lots of upvotes. Believe me. It feels good to get upvotes. Speaking from personal experience, it gives you a sense of power and validation. But it’s hard to actually come up with and post stuff that kicks off into popularity at times. That’s why so many people are peer-pressured into buying and showing off their clone sets. Because clone bros upvote like sheep whenever a clone is shown. This increases Clone sales and ends up putting us, nothing more than clone enthusiasts who prefer other factions, in the position we are now. (personally I put the effort into making memes, I never repost other people’s work (except on leaks)) On a lighter note. Who are the top 5 DC villains you’d like Lego to make who haven’t been done before? 1) Parallax 2) Cyborg Superman 3) Circe 4) Grail 5) Atrocitus
  2. Arkham Asylum? More like Arkham Abysmal from the sound of it.
  3. All this talk about Lego OCs has made me realise, that the fact that we’re getting both a millennium falcon polybag and a Buildable B1 battle droid means we’re finally going to be able to recreate the Kaiju Battldroid fight from Droid Tales. I would love a modernised Jek figure. Jedi Bob, Rowan Freemaker and Jek-14 team up would be legendary. Not even the First Spinjitzu Master could compete with such forces of creation. Here’s hoping for RTG S2.
  4. I don’t care if Rebuild the Galaxy wins. I just need the Clone Bros to lose.
  5. No, there are at least 2 potential new helmet pieces. (P1 Clone Pilot and Bacara) Also K2S0 and the Death Trooper helmet (and perhaps ventress’s lightsabers) must have taken up quite a bit of budget to bring back, either that or they’re new moulds. And if Dedra is in the U-Wing, maybe she’ll have a hair dual-moulded cap? For the record. I’m in no way defending this terrible year.
  6. I was going to mention it, since it’s the set news that brought me out of exile, I’m just glad that it isn’t another clone set. My bet is that the Duros is Jedi Cad Bane. And the build is either Dev’s A-Tie or a Tiny Turbo Tank. Ok Lego. You can show me the Tie Defender now. It’s not funny anymore. That’s a terrible figure count. I guess they can amp up the droid count by adding Droideka, spider droid or crab droid side builds. Clone Bros complaining about this when they know damn well they’re going to buy 50 MTTs and 200 BPs minute 1 anyway. Welp it looks like I’m not buying the 327th BP then. I have very little interest in the MTT whatsoever and I find no point in amassing a legion without a Commander. Also I tire of massive AT RTs. More money to go watch Superman I guess. Maybe I’ll even spend it on the Daily Bugle. Arkham has lost me completely now.
  7. GUYS Wow. I’ve only been gone a week. But it’s nice to be wanted. I was planning on maintaining radio silence until we finally got some good set news, but I’ll guess the confirmation of RTG set instead of another clone set will have to do. Though I did get kidnapped by the brotherhood of Turtle on Wednesday who attempted to sacrifice me to allow Turtle’s return. Luckily the Justice Society of Kamino came to my rescue (more on that later) It’s great to be back. May the Jonkling continue. I think it’s a decent casting. My personal fancast was Luke Evans. But hopefully James Gunn has the balls to cast Danny Devito as the Guardians. It would be more acceptable if it led to Kyle Rayner and Jessica Cruz being buddy cops in Season 2 or 3. But yeah, I’m prepared for John to steal Kyle’s storyline, again. Soooooo, we’re getting Cyborg Spider-Man before Cyborg Superman. And Arkham and the Batmobile appear to be Schumacher based. Alright. I’ve seen enough. I reckon this’ll do very nicely.
  8. One of them is an unknown ship. The other is another buildable droid.
  9. We also know it’s a ship of some kind. I’m expecting it to be either a Y-Wing, A-Wing, Imperial Shuttle or Skyhopper. Something bland that’s been done before basically.
  10. What if on August 1st Lego said:”Turbo Tank, what a joke.” And instead decided to make another Buildable Glup Shitto?
  11. Guys! I know what the January 2026 DC wave will have! Green Lantern Mech: Hal Jordan, John Stewart and Red Lantern Sinestro Wonder Woman mech: Wonder Woman, Supergirl and Andrew Tate Green Lantern Corps minifigure pack: Guy Gardner, G’nort, Sonarik Natu Green vs Red Lantern Battlepack: Kyle Rayner, Jessica Cruz, Bd’g, Bleez, Rankorr and Dextarr. DC CMF Series 2 Arkham Expansion: Man, Jonkler, Bin, Oswald Gobblec**k, Turtle, Paul and Woman. Minifigure scale Nightwing’s butt (£99.99): Nightwing and Wally West (awooga eyes) Source: My friend’s wife’s boyfriend who works at Lego waste disposal told me in a dream. So it must be true!!!
  12. What if after seeing the success and hype from the Superman trailer Lego said “Arkham D2C, what a joke,” and replaces it with a Hall of Justice modular and all employees wear a superman costume in James Gunn’s honour?
  13. No. No. No. It’s the DC theme that gets the stupid decisions. Not marvel.
  14. This is B2EM0 erasure!!! I will not stand for it!
  15. Season 2? Wouldn’t it be funny if it turned out there was a universe before Bob’s. And survivors from that universe called Galen and Mara showed up in season 2.
  16. Nah. Arkham Asylum is obviously included in the Tower of Fate.
  17. @Clone OPatra permission to initiate Aslume: 2025 edition? What’s left? The Schumacher Batcave?!!!!! Even Jonkler can’t get sets now.
  18. I too want Superman to do so well in the box office and merch sales that Lego has a “oh megabluck” moment. And then course corrects so hard that it makes the transition from Thor: The Dark World to Thor: Ragnarok look like child’s play
  19. Personally, the only Disney projects I didn’t like in some form were Mando S3 and Acolyte. I enjoyed TROS and TLJ as their own movies. Though they aren’t as great when placed next to everything else. But there are still fans to all those projects who deserve sets. I’m guessing you’re a Nerdrotic and Critical Drinker consumer. It’s a choice. I’ll give you that. But SW is not dead. People said it was dead after TPM, yet it’s still here. It still delivers on great scenes and TV shows every now and then. (Andor) And are we going to ignore that Disney has absolutely cooked in the Videogame department? There’s also a lot of hype for Andor S2, with not even a trailer so far. In fact I’d say it’s comparable to Obi-wan’s hype. Finally. This argument about bastardisation is surprising coming from you. I could argue that Zack Snyder bastardised Jerry Siegel’s creation, Superman, and Bob Kane and Bill Finger’s Batman. But do you treat them as such? No. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Mark my words. The Andor U-Wing will fly, fly like a bee, off shelves.
  20. I know I’m probably beating a dead horse at this point with the imperial sets… but I’ve recently been playing Jedi Survivor and want sets so badly. And empire seems to be the best bet of circumventing Lego’s stupid no direct tie-in play-sets policy. So here are two sets that’ll make me a very happy Tanalorian. (TANALORR IS MINE!!!) Imperial Forces Battlepack (£19.99): Scout Trooper, Scout Trooper Commander, Stormtrooper Commander and, a Imperial Jump-trooper. The commander minifigs would use a new pauldron piece made out of the new rubber cape material. Builds are: an imperial checkpoint, E-WEB turret and a DT sentry droid. (Spare pistols for scouts also included) Imperial Patrol Gunship (£59.99): Purge Trooper, Jump Trooper, Jump Trooper Commander, Stormtrooper, Scout Trooper and Ahsoka Tano (Rebels) The Jump Trooper Commander is distinguished by a white and Orange dual moulded left arm with imperial cog arm printing on orange shoulder, I’d buy 2 gunships and 4 BPs in a heartbeat. Lego! Make these sets and my bank account is yours!!! Stuff that’d go very nicely with what’s above: Tie Defender (£54.99): Grand Admiral Thrawn, Captain Pellaeon, Tie Baron and either a Death Trooper or Stormtrooper. ITT (£64.99): Stormtrooper Commander, Stormtrooper, Imperial Combat Driver, Lieutenant Lyste, Sabine Wren and Ezra Bridger. Partisan Z-95 (£34.99): Luthen Rael, Benthic Two Tubes and a partisan rebel. B-Wing (£49.99): General Calarissian, Gina Moonsong/ Pilot, Crix Madine and Mon Mothma.
  21. So the Daredevil: Born Again trailer dropped. I’m cautiously optimistic. But I remember the Secret Invasion trailer looking good as well. I hope he gets a spot in Marvel CMF S3 if it ever happens.
  22. It would be acceptable. That way I wouldn’t be missing out on anything. You’re 100% right. I completely agree with you here. OT is the bedrock of SW. Without it, nothing else can exist. Kids need to be able to buy the main cast at any time for an affordable price. Or at least Han, Luke, Leia and Chewie. Armies are great for us AFOLs. But you need the main characters, not just named clones and random Jedi, to keep the theme alive and accessible to new fans. Mando-verse Tie Defender set releasing at the same time as that to combat each other would go so hard. (Also I’m pretty sure they’ll show up in M&G as Thrawn has a stockpile of Tie Defenders ready to go thanks to Morgan Elsbeth’s factory. As teased by ToTE.) This is exactly how it should work. With vehicles like imperial shuttles and tie fighters providing leeway between Mando-verse and OT.
  23. Simple: I hope armoured Obi-Wan doesn’t remain exclusive to the V-19. Probably my favourite Obi-Wan design, but I do not care for the V-19 at all. (I’ve also already bought the ARC-170 as well)
  24. Exactly. That’s why it’s the only clone set this summer I’m hyped for.
