Love your Prof Binns! And Madame Maxine is the head of the Female French school...

Every once in a while, I manage to hit the local TRU at the same time a Lego rep is there and I've talked to him about them. As far as he knows, they are just sent back to a warehouse (can't remember where...) and stored. Seems odd, but that's what he stated when pulling out the Vikings set-up and hooking up the new (then) Undersea set display. They're not for me as the glue is too globby for my tastes - plus, I couldn't take them apart and redo!

Welcome to EB!

The Dwarves Mine for $80.? Is that in Euros?! :-D And yes, to the poster that saw it for $29. Yes - You should have picked it up! That was an incredible price! It was (and will be again) a great set IMO.

After I (and mine) check it out from cover-to-cover, I send it off to the neighbor kids... Looking forward to seeing the catalogue and figuring out the seemingly complex opening. :-D

Really nice!! Great buildings and action!

Wouldn't they have to do some sort of extended-cape for a trenchcoat? I can't see a trenchcoat being printed on the minifig... I don't think that face is perfect, but I'd really, really, really appreciate it if The Commish appeared in 3-D form. I'm imagining more smallish rectangular glasses ala Batman Begins.

Hurrm. Rorschach in Lego form? No Way. Never happen.

$31.00 ? That doesn't seem too bad... Might have to utilize one of $5. OFF coupons from BM. ;-)

Whoo-hoo! I snagged the Skeleton Prison Carriage and Crossbow Attack. I figure the Crossbow Attack was essentially free after the coupon...

Welcome aboard!

That's really nice. But, who'd cut a hole in their floor for a Lego Jungle Pit?!? :-D

Yeah - all the Press and somebody-who-knows-somebodies who aren't collecting them and simply throwing theirs up on Ebay... :-/ (jealous :-D ) Can't say that I wouldn't do the same, but I really can't believe some folks are paying hundreds of $$$ for them.

I'm an Iron Fan myself and even I'd have to say that Lego Iron Man is a longshot. Bats has all the publicity, set ideas (Batcave, etc), and vehicles. It would go the way of Spidey - cool figs, but no lasting power IMO. Now an Lego IM game? That would be awesome and prob sell!!

Just what is "steampunk"? I've seen folks use that nomenclature. Is it really popular enough to support a line? I'm still hoping for History.

Me too! Me too!! X-D Nice job! *y*

Nice!! I like the idea of these, as it gives folks a decent choice of extra pieces without the stuff you don't want. I'll go for the roof and maybe door/ window packs, but the wheels are definitely a "no buy" for me.

Especially with the exposed engine!

Hey! That's great! I love hearing (reading) little snippets of info like this. My wife used to work in Disney in FL and she told many interesting trade secrets... ;-) Why couldn't there have been an advertisement for toy design in my local paper when I was 17... :'-(

There will probably be thugs (black/ white, purple, and blue tops) and police as playable characters as well. Maybe an Arkham Guard? Thanks for the help Batbrick! My Black Mask...

I agree with most if not all of the names already given. A hope that I have is that Lego will eventually re-release the Gilderoy (and others...) face in flesh when coming up with new sets. They did 2 versions...the one shown in the above link from GoF and one with a shiny-looking eyes and mouth from the OotP movie.

That $39.99 price for the Jungle Cutter seems low...I hope it stays that way! X-D

Evil Elves? *n* I bet they're introduced as friends to humans and dwarves...with the new light and dark greens and browns as color schemes we've been getting recently. How about a new faction of Evil to go along with the elves - Goblins. Not sure what the face would look like, but they could easily be counterparts to the dwarves and utilize the short legs.

I have a Custom Black Mask MF ready to be shown off. X-D Having trouble... Can someone LMK how to attach pics within the reply field? I've browsed, found a pic, then hit "add this attachment", but then nothing happens...
