    Brick Bank's, I believe. I think this theme is shaping up to be one of my favorite in-house themes. While several of the sets fail to appeal to me (Merlok's library especially, it's too basic), many of them do. I admire the creativity around this theme, and I'm sure it will be a hit with kids. Which. you know, is kinda the point, guys. I like the character designs and all the new molds. We've needed a better boo piece ever since the original one was made. Overall, I eagerly look forward to this theme. It's a lot of fun, and I appreciate the designers that made it a reality. Also, if you're listening, please give us a real Merlok figure in the future!

    I hope they don't end the theme when one block is possible. That would be rather unfair to those who missed out on the earlier buildings. I have the GE up, but not the Cinema, and my Emporium has been cannibalized for parts. I do hope the theme goes on for a few more years, because owning a complete block would be so great!

    Where's the designer video when we need it?

    The pentagonal crest is a 3-D tile that attaches to the studs of the shield piece.

    Unfortunately, the mouths need to be opened manually. The domes are on click-hinges, and not attacked to a mechanism as far as I can see.

    That hairpiece is lovely. I hope LEGO uses it frequently.

    It's just the editing process, the stands are removed in the final photos. But the hand-portals should be included.

    It's probably not a movie figure. But it's not like LEGO's smaller-scale movies have had minor characters as the exclusive minifigures... There is a new one already announced, isn't there? I still think he's a poly, though.

    I'm just glad that there have been a solid amount of fictional characters in each series since 10, which was awful, because the only non-civilians were Medusa and the Warrior Woman. I'm anxious to get a full list.

    Oh, that's perfect. Now I'm totally going to have that one rampaging around NYC when the HQ set comes out!

    The Lightning Lad cube should be showing up around November/December. I'll need to add room for Cosmic Boy on my display plate now...He definitely looks like a TRU poly like Rocket or Electro. The only new printed parts are his torso and legs. (AntiMatter dishes are reused here.) I don't think he's iconic enough to be a buyer's bonus at S@H.

    The "stamp" is actually the "1x1 tile w/pin" that debuted in the Friends sets: But it's totally new in gold!

    I think it's an awful tease for LEGO to design a great figure, but to cop out and make it a hologram and thus not make it physical. I'd appreciate the real Merlok though.

    Look at the Crooks Island. There's a BURP with a corner.
  15. 8BrickMario
    Warning duly heeded. I'm usually the guy who forgets to save pics.

    I'd prefer a sea serpent to more dragons. Ninjago and Elves are busy exhausting the idea. Dwarves would be cool, especially since they only showed up in FE, but these weapons seem like they need a maker.
  17. 8BrickMario
    The Prison Island is really cool. I need it (Can you say "Harley-Balloon"?). The main cell is a little odd, but it's the most unique prison I've seen. Why did we need a new BURP?
  18. 8BrickMario
    Yeah, those pics are nothing new. But they're still great!
  19. 8BrickMario
    They're touched up, but not totally rendered. I bet it was a lighting bug, perhaps due to the box art.
  20. 8BrickMario
    Very interesting. There's a lot you could build onto Axl's armor. I guess this confirms the whole plume debate. Still weird how her hair matches, though,
  21. 8BrickMario
    Minor correction. Those are Prince of Persia claws, not Wolverine's. I don't think adding another floor really helps the bank. It just looks copy-pasted like the picture. I'm fine with the size reduction, because I really appreciate the interior details. Not everyone will be doing anything with the interior, but I like it.
  22. 8BrickMario
    It's preliminary. S@H photos are plagued by mistakes, like Gorilla Grodd.
  23. 8BrickMario
    His right, yes. Under the brown plate w/clip.
  24. 8BrickMario
    No, from what I gather, the Castle fans refuse to consider this as a Castle theme at all. Because they don't like it, it seems that it's not allowed in the same circles.
  25. 8BrickMario
    Look at his arm. EDIT: Just noticed that the cheeses on toothy are a bow tie. That's sorta cute! Having looked again, I think I might skip the Castle tribe. There's nothing wrong with them, but they don't interest me. From Series 7, I'll get: Trumpsy Tapsy Busto And from 8, Hydrant Skull Pirate Treasure Crab Mr. Toothy Chair guy Dentist I'm just glad there are no retreaded tribes here.
