Thanks, Tenor!

Wow! A bunch of comments already - thanks, guys! Oky, always been a fan of your Zurg-mobile (http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=418191). Oky and SI, I completely agree with you - too blocky in the rear. Limited by parts collection at the moment, but I'm hoping the future Super Heroes sets will rectify that problem. I'll take your advice, and hopefully improve the model in the future. Sok, thanks so much for the compliments! Really appreciate that you noticed the PS work. It's a great tool! Also, appreciate the notice about the contest, but I wasn't a Eurobricks member by October 24 - contest rules. That's okay, though. I'd rather someone who really wanted the exclusive figures got them. Hopefully, I'll get them in official sets - can't imagine TLG would only use those beautiful decals for exclusives.

Hey, Willybob, First, thanks for breaking the news on a number of Lego Super Hero tidbits - much appreciated. Second, to answer your question, I don't think the idea of Arkham as a set comes from anywhere except speculation. However, AA as a new set is logical based on: 1. TLG previously made an Arkham set, and a lot of the preliminary pics we've seen are based on previous Batman sets. 2. idea that, along with maybe a GCPD set, the Asylum is the most popular Batman location next to the batcave/Wayne Manor, thanks in large part due to the "Arkham ..." video games. 3. a lot of the sets revealed are Batman-based. 4. Because Batman sells, WB would put pressure on TLG to create another Batman-themed set, one that incorporates the other characters we've seen via the exclusives and press release - ie: GL, Harley Quinn, and Riddler (hopefully with a green bowler hat, like Penguin's custom minifigure).

Hey, viewers, Been a longtime "lurker" of Eurobricks, but never posted. Thought I should start by giving thanks to everyone (Hickley, the Penguin, etc.) who's posted their on MOC's, which have undoubtedly influenced my own in one form or anther. Wanted to try and return the favor, and share one of my own MOC's. Hopefully my composition can influence one of you, and lead on to something better. Here's my future Batmobile, custom Batman Beyond minifigure, Jokerz gang (watch Batman Beyond) member minifigures, and Ace the bathound minifigures. Hope you like the "action features." They're always the most fun I have with a any Lego model. Regards, Phantasm

You can probably get one in TDKR sets that'll come out Spring/Summer. If the batman minifigure you're interested in is anything like the promo Superman, it will be even better than the exclusive figure. For example, the Supes in the preliminary set pic has red boots, while the exclusive(NYCC) does not.
