The lava enemies are apparently golem-like monsters. I just hope they're different from the ones in Power Miners.
-
Why not? Evil jesters are often associated with magic. Figure packs seem nice. Would they be like the Chima Tribe Packs? EDIT: Since one of the heroes is called Macy, would it be too much to hope for a proper LEGO mace, instead of the flail they've been using?
-
Actually, LEGO said on Facebook that this set does not indicate any future re-releases.
-
That's what the "Ultimate" sets seem to be. I'm all for a female knight. Before, every female was a peasant or a damsel in distress. Now we have a female lava monster and a female knight!
-
You do realize that they are completely separate builds that can be placed anywhere, right? Or are you being sarcastic?
-
What's wrong with a female knight? She'll probably still wear a helmet... My guess is that this will have something to do with magical technology, to justify the fantastical side of the theme.
-
It's orange and blue, so they're spending money to make a new version of the hat! Honestly, I understand the disappointment, but I didn't really like the previous Toy Shop set. There is practically no interior to the actual shop, which I felt needed more focus. I had it dismantled shortly after building it. I'd like to know why LEGO is doing this instead of making a totally new design. The only thing I can think of is that this is a sendoff to the theme.

DC Superheroes 2016 - Rumors and Discussion
8BrickMario replied to just2good's topic in LEGO Licensed
It could just as well be red/blue Harley, especially if Deadshot's with her. Red/blue Harley is used for the Suicide Squad comics, while red/black is used for the Harley Quinn series. If she's with Deadshot, it's most likely the Squad version.- 8,446 replies

I think LEGO is doing this to have something new in the Castle theme. 2013's line was incrediby stale, trying to combine the historical Kingdoms with the Fantasy Era while trying to make it feel "classic". However, if they had redone either of the previous themes, people would complain about lack of originality. This is guaranteed to be new, and LEGO's banking on it to be successful as a franchise. Next time they try pure Castle. it may have a new twist or focus on new elements.
-
I'd give anything for the horror Studios sets to be remade with identical figs, so I see your point. However, since this is the first set being remade, I feel a sense of circular closure here. I wouldn't be surprised to see the end of the WV theme after this set.
-
I really like how they've updated it. The best changes are the jack-in-the-box and the female caroler! I also like the new colors and more recent pieces. I feel like the WV theme is slowing down. After this, there may be no more sets, or if there are, they'll all be rereleases. Perhaps LEGO wants to invest more time in the Fairground theme now? As for modulars, a rereleased GG or CC doesn't seem like it would come close to the original design. The newer ones have a lot of focus on furnishing, so they would be much smaller in size if they were updated. My only question: Why? Was this set insanely popular? Is it some sort of anniversary release?
-
I'd love it if Jestro introduced a new jester hat mold, perhaps with three or four points? Both the jester hat and the classic hood are fine, but I'd really like updated versions of both parts.

DC Superheroes 2016 - Rumors and Discussion
8BrickMario replied to just2good's topic in LEGO Licensed
There is absolutely zero evidence that Killer Croc will be in the set. That was just a wishful idea. Since J2G ruled out Moth/Firelfly, it's most certainly Harley and Deadshot.- 8,446 replies

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 15 Rumors and Discussion

Not to mention repetitive astronauts/troopers. But we know S15 is the unthemed series of the year. -

"I want X, so it should be in the sets" creates clutter. We don't have much information yet, so perhaps we should hold off on posting until we learn more.- 8,446 replies

DC Superheroes 2016 - Rumors and Discussion
8BrickMario replied to just2good's topic in LEGO Licensed
This is all we know: There's a '66 Batman set with Catwoman in it (no confirmation for the other figures). Harley Quinn appears to be the main villain of the Cycle Chase (pigtails piece has been hinted at multiple times by J2G, she's the only character who would use it). Otherwise, we know nothing else. I think maybe we should go quiet until prelims or other news comes out, because right now, it's a bunch of redundant speculation and confusion.- 8,446 replies

White Tiger's not purist. It uses an altered Aurra Sing head. The mouth was removed and the eyes were painted over. The Plant Monster looks great as a henchman costume!

Can someone please rename this thread to "Nexo Knights 2016" now that we know the name?

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 14 Rumors and Discussion
8BrickMario replied to Robert8's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Yeah, well I exaggerated a bit. Still nothing. The new Target just put out their two boxes' worth of Simpsons S2, so that means they probably won't put out S14 until December! -
Sci-fi Castle sets? Awesome. A JESTER VILLAIN? Shut up and take my money! Also nice to know that one of the three villains is female (and fire-based, it seems). I wonder if they're planning to franchise this theme? It certainly seems like it.

DC Superheroes 2016 - Rumors and Discussion
8BrickMario replied to just2good's topic in LEGO Licensed
Okay: May we please have at least one clear-cut answer from J2G? Here we go. Are Firefly or Killer Moth in the Cycle Chase set? If one is, be obnoxiously mysterious. If not, please just say so! I hate this endless confusion and speculation. What happened to the good old days when news was news and there was no need to be so covert about early information?- 8,446 replies

Most likely comic-book Squad Harley, and hopefully not Joker.- 8,446 replies

I'd prefer minifigures, but minidolls to supplement the sets and provide conflict are fine by me! -

I think it's possible to get Joy in this series, since the Zombie Businessman hair looks like a good fit.- 4,155 replies

I just realized that the Zombie Businessman hair would work for Joy! Wait, does that mean she's already in the works?
