    Why is Marvel trying to anger as many nerds as possible? Their reboots are awful compared to the well-defined continuity everyone loves, and seemingly trying to attract as much controversy as they can to get sales. I'm sure LEGO won't reflect on it, though.

    Here's the image of rejected models: The Jet, the really cool (pun not intended) Freeze vehicle, and the precursor to both the Drill Tank and the Tremor Track. As you can see, WW's jet doesn't look too great, since layered trans-clear loses the effect, but the gray they tried to break it up with doesn't help.

    They've done sketch models with all clear bricks, but it didn't look too good, since clear on clear looks bad. I'm assuming this one will include the obvious new Wonder Woman and Cheetah.

    Well, that sounds good, then. The Marvel theme seems to like larger mini-jointed figures like Groot and the Sentinel, so I'm sure that the Hulkbuster will be similar. Although that doesn't make my expectations very high.

    I found a picture of the set! Great, isn't it?

    Don't believe it yet. He is hinting at something on the DC topic, too, but I can't be sure if it's serious. How did you get these pieces of info?
  7. 8BrickMario
    Well said. His reviews are great and very good for looks at the new parts, but people have elevated them to an unnecessary legendary status, which sort of prevents anyone else from making reviews of the CMFs. All in good time.

    I don't understand you. Are you hiding some potential information? Come on, tell us! No one else will know...oh, wait. Well, depending on LEGO's awareness, we may not have to wait long for the rest of the next wave to be leaked. Perhaps we won't be guessing or hoping for long.

    It's the ghostly Witch-king design from The Hobbit with the spiked crown. It's a small set (around $12) with the Witch-king, Galadriel, and Elrond, with a small wall section from Dol Guldur.

    There is one? I thought Marvel was shutting down the FF franchise due to conflict with the Fox movies.

    I wonder why some of the characters got the bursting-out-of-the-comic background, and the others are screenshots. Those images used by the last batch (with Harley and Catwoman) looked like CGIs used on the Characters pages of the minisites. Why don't the rest have them?
  12. 8BrickMario
    It is the zipline piece, most recently seen in Spinlyn's Cavern and Battle for Ninjago City.

    Billy Batson, Shazam!'s alter ego, who transforms into him.

    Oh, no, I wasn't criticizing. It's fine to not like her design, since it does stray from her namesake. The uniqueness of the design made me want her as a minifigure, and the perfection of the game design makes me want her in a set! I was just wondering about the pigtails, since they seem rather thin at the base. Perhaps the closeness to the rest of the hair would negate a stability issue. I don't think it could be rubberized with the multicolored nature, though. I also realized that if they do make her, her hip joint won't be printed in the middle like the image shows, since only the top part can be printed. And Joker is the perennial villain and almost obligated to be in any wave Bats appears in (that is, all of them), but I imagine a slight printing change or new suit like the 2012 vs. Steam Roller designs.

    I like how whimsical it looks, and after the appalling prices of the recent WV sets, this is a nice step down. I like Mrs. Claus for her new hair color and dress, but the torso and head are mildly disappointing. Although, these kinds of sets rarely use new prints. The sleigh is excellent, and the reindeer are cute as well. The toy machine is a humorous touch, but the small size doesn't bug me too much. I would have wanted a red-nosed reindeer, and a new torso and face for the Mrs. (she needs glasses). The columns at the door and the candy canes are brilliant.
  16. 8BrickMario
    Manta and Grodd look really good. All these reveals with an indeterminate release date make it harder to wait, though!
  17. 8BrickMario
    I'm just an irrational fan of the character (and I can appreciate both designs), but if she does appear with the Joker, how would they make him new? The least family-friendly version he'll ever get is Heath Ledger, his New 52 design would never make it to any LEGO medium. Perhaps the Tropical outfit that appears in each game? The two problems with this Harley's possibility of appearing in a set are the hairpiece (stability of the pigtails and black ties) and context. Still hoping...
  18. 8BrickMario
    Ah, good. I'm glad that Harley, and presumably others, get their classic variants as well. Perhaps they'll be "outfits" like Doc Ock and Pepper Potts/Rescue in LEGO Marvel, instead of separate slots. I don't think I like the floppy hat on Harley, though.
  19. 8BrickMario
    We only have one Catwoman and Harley in this theme. The older Batman theme had a variant of each there. I was thinking there's a slim possibility since the theme has't yet gone away from LEGO Batman. But if these do appear, it may be as secondary villians, and not the main antagonists of the sets.
  20. 8BrickMario
    I noticed the new spring-missile piece and the new Orc hair. It's good that the transparent shots aren't the only option.
  21. 8BrickMario
    There are three fantastical/unnatural characters in the series. A Greco-Roman goddess is certainly a mythical entity, the Spooky Girl is a horror-based concept, and the Genie Girl is obviously from fairy tales. And technically, the Princess's labeling marks her as fantasy, too.
  22. 8BrickMario
    Does anyone think these new versions of Catwoman and Harley are plausible for physical release? Both of them require a new mould, but since the game is putting focus on the New 52 designs of the villains now, these could be possible in the actual sets. Since the general consensus is that the new Wonder Woman and Cheetah will most likely appear in a set, that would mean that at least one new villain would be based off of the new designs, so more could be as well. I'm also wondering, because I will make it no secret that I desperately want that Harley to be a minifigure! It's probably the most unique redesign in the reboot, and TT (and possibly LEGO) really nailed the design. The shift to the League makes me curious, though, as to where these two could appear. But Batman is probably still dominant in the theme, so who knows? Please, LEGO, please!
  23. 8BrickMario
    Besides the confirmed sequel, these other LEGO movies are most likely not in the same continuity and universe as this one. It doesn't have anything to do with next year's sets, at any rate.
  24. 8BrickMario
    I am glad about the names. Glowkies should be great, but since they've done a spider in the Wiztastics, what nocturnal-themed monsters could be next? And this tribe will have two useful rare colors: Dark Blue and White Glow! Orbitonz sounds interesting. I'm sure an alien-based one will be a member, and perhaps a satellite-inspired Mixel? But why more Infernites?
  25. 8BrickMario
    When I mentioned the idea earlier, I was wishing for something good. Not something phenomenal, since New 52 Harley Quinn is in the game, and looks perfect! It's possible!
