  1. Thanks! Your best bet is telling them to hold it for you!
  2. It can't be him. He's a starter character like Wyldstyle and Batman, who don't seem to be there.
  3. I believe it's just the top of the box that was posted earlier but under a certain filter (which really helps discern colors ) and straightened out.
  4. True, and I honestly do hope it holds more LEGO Simpsons.
  5. Didn't that one appear in M-Tron and Space Police?
  6. I was considering the fact that I don't think Snake will be in any other sets, but honestly I didn't know about 10240. Though, that did appear in others the following years. But thanks!
  7. Thanks for all the feedback you guys! I agree, but so many people were complaining about how The Simpsons House should have included the most common versions (mostly because the eyes or whatever), so I think LEGO played it safe and just included the normal versions. It makes sense, since Series 1 is gone forever, and the common versions were in there, and this set is bound to be in stock for a very long time like the Death Star. I never really agreed when people were complaining about the alternate eye prints personally, but I guess this is a good business choice based on previous feedback.
  8. Alright, so I usually do quick photo reviews when I get new sets. That's what I'll do here, but there's quite a few photos, so I thought I might as well make its own review thread. So, I got the Kwik-E-Mart by paying just2much on an early eBay copy. I think it's worth it, as this week I'm gonna be super busy, so I was able to build it Saturday and stuff. Here's my video review, I think it's one of my best: Well, let's get onto this photo review. The set is $200 USD with a little over 2100 pieces. The official release is April 15th for VIP members, May 1st for everyone else at LEGO Stores. And, if you want full size pictures, check out my Flickr by clicking here. The minifigures included are great. You get three exclusive minifigures (one being a completely exclusive character- the first time LEGO has ever put an exclusive mould in a Direct to Consumer set), and you get three of the series most popular characters in their normal attire for those who missed out on the first Simpsons minifigures series. The Kwik-E-Mart's exterior is loaded with lots of sticker details. The only printed detail you'll see in the exterior is the dial pad in the phone booth, which has appeared in some other licensed themes since last year. ( ^^^ right here is there the store can be opened- a simple Technic pin and receiver keeps it in place and allows for opening and closing) The roof of the store includes the garden shown in the Paul McCartney episode. The roof can be slided out/in once you open it with the hinge part. Here's a look at the store with the roof removed. The floors are a nice sand blue color, coming with 8x16 thin plates: And, for the interior, from the view of the store opened with the hinges at the back that I mentioned earlier: The left front corner, which includes some arcade machines of Bonestorm and Great White Hunter, an amazingly done Buzz cola soda machine, juice machine, the checkout counter, ect: The right front corner, with food aisles, freezers, and a frozen Jasper sticker: The back left corner, which includes some nice coffee kettle builds, the donut tray, hotdogs, ect: The right back corner, which has a door leading to a very small hallway that only has a mouse and cheese in it. The hallway leads to the employees only door in the back, and it's very hard to get in the door way (not that there's anything to do inside there): Also included is Clancy's copcar, which fits three figures: Here's a look at the piece list in the instructions, click on each to be lead to an enlarged version of the pic: Also included are some awesome printed pieces, and two unprinted coffee cups! Honestly, I think this set is perfect. The price is fantastic, and has a great PPP ratio. They really went above and beyond by including Snake in this set. I honestly think it's better than the Simpsons House in terms of accuracy and the value here- so many cool pieces printed and in exclusive colors. So, that's my quick picture review. Hope you guys enjoyed, and I'd love to hear your thoughts!
  9. Well, here's a review! This was one of my hardest reviews to execute- I had to keep it under fifteen minutes. But I'm so proud of the outcome! I think its one of my best. I know I usually do picture review here, and I will... except in its own thread, as I took twenty or so pics.
  10. Correct, but LEGO Dimensions Wizard of Oz stuff is based on the 1939 film by MGM (you can tell this by the logo with the MGM owned Ruby Slippers and how the small clip mirrored the movie). So, they did have to pay a nominal fee for licensing.
  11. So, I spent two days analyzing the top of that darn box... I can't be wrong about Chell, right?! Who else can it be?! AM I CRAZY!?! AM I?!!?! AHHHHHHHHHH
  12. Where is that picture from?
  13. A few... I didn't see the harpon before, but that supposedly comes in some UA sets. Two of the minifigures are exclusive, the dino is exclusive, and the frame on the motorcycle is exclusive in the blue.
  14. It's smart. Batman is arguably the most popular DC character. Makes sense to make him a starter character on the covering and stuff.
  15. Definitely. If they couldn't they wouldn't have made unique bases. The bases are printed so that you know what figure it reads when you take the minifigure apart or whatever.
  16. I did eBay this time. Thanks for the nice feedback.
  17. Yeah, you can see Bart and Homer if you squint on top of the box!
  18. Thanks for all the positive feedback! Unfortunately, I do not.
  19. The picture is definitely fake. It wasn't posted on any official sites in my understanding. Plus, it wouldn't be very smart in terms of marketing to put a completely new hashtag that differs from the one every other teaser is using. And, notice how they didn't have an official Ghostbusters character reveal today... they only teaser posters all had their characters revealed. However, I'm confident they're in the game.
  20. Great review Chris! I also got my hands on a JW set! It's the T. Rex Tracker set! Overall, this set is pretty good! I like the T. Rex the best, but the vehicle is a nice dino transporter. I wish there was a little more to the build of the set, though the vehicle does its job, and it's nice that the pen/holding area can be removed. Maybe some shrubery or something would have made the set feel more like a value to me, as the price doesn't totally satisfy me.
  21. That's what I think. That we'll see a LEGO Wizard of Oz set, branded as a Dimensions set, coming with the stand incentive.
  22. They just had info from the Reddit post I made.
