    True, stand-ins happen often, but a new mold is almost always indicated by a white prototype or head. If there's an older mold, it's unlikely to be replaced by a new one, and thus, the minifigure is a rerealese. Harley's hat turned out to be in the Jokerland set, even when everyone assumed it was a stand-in for the pigtails. It wasn't. Combined with the old prints, it's safe to say that DC has new vehicle builds, but nothing new in the way of figures.

    I don't think any of the figures in the Racers are new. Hulk_Smash saw no new prints, and nothing indicating a new mold.

    I'm sure the supposed Lexcorp will be an open-backed facade like Arkham or the Temple of Airjitzu, I wouldn't expect an enclosed building, because it would need to be a hinged dollhouse if it were.

    That doesn't really belong here.

    Oh, that book sounds very Chimesque. Is there some sort of magical energy force, or does it only refer to physical might?

    I blame the movie for not making sense, not the minifigure! Getting a claw hand is always a bonus, and it's a neat reference, so I'll take it! Now that I have my top 5, I think I'll seek out the Gargoyle (need a complete one), Fly Monster, Specter, Plant Monster, and Skeleton Guy.

    I'm sure the Gargoyle will make it into my top 3 when I finally get a complete one. Since I never got to assemble him fully, though, I'll need to wait. I'm also quite fond of the Spider Lady. She's got quite a presence, and is the better of the two vampire ladies.

    Is it just me or would the S11 Scarecrow go great with the Wacky Witch? Maybe it's the patched-up clothes...

    I'd say it would be very unlikely to get anything directly based on the movie. I think it's been semi-confirmed that LEGO will include characters from the comics to loosely tie in to the movie.

    Wait, how is Square Foot repetitive? He and the Yeti are entirely different cryptids. I do agree that most of the monsters are repetitive, but I appreciate that each one manages to be unique. Putting the Wacky Witch, Banshee, and Monster Scientist against my other witches, ghosts, and scientists clearly illustrates how different they are. Monster Fighters was much less original, although, as I've said before, it went for darker redesigns, while this one went for lighter. I guarantee if these were spread out among the next 14-16 series, people would love them. Putting them all together in one series makes people think it's a waste.

    I third that. Can we not do this next year? Would it kill J2G and co. to keep silent and then give us an info-dump when they're allowed to? I feel like it would make the discussion ten times more productive an d on-topic, not to mention, less maddening.
  12. 8BrickMario
    Well, it's one or the other. Why Firefly, though? Wouldn't Deadshot make so much more sense?
  13. 8BrickMario
    Two words: Subject matter. Never mind the extravagant detail and complex molding. People don't like the themed-ness of this series and the general lack of versatility among the figures.

    Does anyone have favorites? Mine is definitely the Banshee. Such a unique design and she introduces some new things to minifigures as a whole. Her Sand Green probably helps (It's my favorite LEGO color). I'm expecting to see her in the I Love That Minifigure! book, seeing as she's the first to have translucent hair and Light Aqua skin.

    It's between Deadshot and Firefly. Deadshot: J2G thinks so, figure in prelims has white head, and no helmet Firefly: Figure in prelims has jetpack and gun of some kind. Honestly, if Just2good says it's Deadshot and Firefly was just a guess based on the character's equipment, I'm more inclined to think it's Deadshot on a jetpack, as he uses guns and makes sense in a team with Harley. Firefly would seem out of place and require a new mold, which makes me think it's not him.

    Very funny and very creative! That poor minifigure!

    I finally found them in a LEGO store! I found the Monster Scientist, Spider Lady, Wacky Witch, and Gargoyle, but as luck would have it, the box I looked through had zero Banshees. However, when I told an employee, she opened a new box for me, and I got her! Banshee- A fantastic figure. Her colors are great, I love the ghost bottom, and her hair and prints are very well-done. So happy to have someone so sad! Wacky Witch- Another great design. Her hat/hair and everything else about her are great. Also nice to have my first pair of dual-molded minifig legs! Monster Scientist- Another good design that does exactly what it's supposed to. Spider Lady- I like her a lot, but her face seems off to me. She looks chubbier than I thought she did! Her hair and cape are great, though. Gargoyle- Maybe opening the Banshee first was a bad sign. As I opened the Gargoyle's package in the car, it slid off my leg and dumped his head and headpiece into the dark depths of my car! His head was recovered, but his cranium is lost forever. Now I need to buy a new one!

    I'm just hoping the Jokerland torso is a stand-in for a red/blue torso print...I really want a new, different Harley, not a rehash that invalidates the one in Jokerland.

    I saw the September catalog, and thought it was very unfair of LEGO to tease this set as a "new Exclusive!"
  20. 8BrickMario
    I don't see how either J2G of Hulk_Smash could be wrong, but if the prelims show Firefly, he must be there. It seems like LEGO is using these racers as a way to put villains in smaller sets. Bane will be in two sets in the upcoming year, and Catwoman seems like a reissue for those who didn't get her. I'm guessing Batgirl is her racing opponent. I wish the figs were new, though. Perhaps there'll be more racers later, with Two-Face, Scarecrow, and Mr. Freeze. I'm still waiting for a new Scarecrow using the Wacky Witch headgear, but the Racers don't seem like a probable venue for a new design.
  21. 8BrickMario
    Sounds interesting. As long as they don't seem smaller-scale then they'll be great. Thank you for the information!
  22. 8BrickMario
    Oh, I love that! How crazy do the vehicles seem to be?
  23. 8BrickMario
    Catwoman with hair is in the '66 Batcave. It's most likely her 2012 variant.
  24. 8BrickMario
    Oh, that's incredibly disappointing. What does LEGO have against giving Harley a proper brick-built vehicle?
  25. 8BrickMario
    I wouldn't count on two Catwomen in one year. Batwoman would be great, though! I'm really looking forward to these. I love themed vehicles, and if there are new characters (who seem to be full-bodied), then even better! What's Harley's bike like? Is it similar to the one in LB2, or is it smaller? What colors were the bike? Red/Black or Red/Dark Blue?
