Would love to see it made in real bricks. Lovely stuff.

I like the guy, sneaking up behind the tree. He looks suspicious..! The build itself looks sturdy and very well mixed in with the landscape.

Terrific sets, with lots of originality and energy between them. Hopefully they'll be here sooner rather than later.

The interiors are stunning.

As has already been said, I think the movie tie-ins for Iron Man 3 were not received well and this might have warned Lego off of releasing movie sets. Bear in mind, Disney constantly promote their own cartoons, so that is pretty much free promo for the attached Lego sets. I think Avengers Assemble is god-awful, but it's also an episodic cartoon staring mostly popular characters, and this means Lego can make sets based off of it and have the free promotion to boot. This way, with no spoilers for various films, we don't end up with another flamethrower-golf-cart fiasco. The new waves of DC sets, predominantly based from the imagination of designers, are where Marvel sets might get to at some point. But for now I think TLG designers will stick to the modern source material, and that means cartoons.

Very ricket-y, and lovely to boot..!

It looks like Wyldstyle does get an actual collar piece around the neck, which is quite awesome in itself.

It's very well done..! I like the olive use.

There's a definite 'wrecked' feeling about the whole thing.

Swiftsure-class Diplomatic Shuttle by TenorPenny, on Flickr Swiftsure-class Diplomatic Shuttle by TenorPenny, on Flickr Swiftsure-class Diplomatic Shuttle by TenorPenny, on Flickr Decked out white, the universal colour of peace and neutrality, the Swiftsure is used in times of war by the great Solar Navies to ferry important diplomats and personnel from place to place, with all organised military forces having agreed to never attack such a shuttle, on pain of court martial. Two ion engines make the shuttle as quick as it's namesake, whilst the roomy interior has room for a head of state and their entire retinue to travel in comfort and style. The Swiftsure's reputation has been tarnished just once, when the Italian Fascist League stole one, loaded it with explosives and managed to get close enough to the Earth defensive net to destroy half of the New Washington solar platform, with significant loss of life. Ever since, the Swiftsure computer cores have been upgraded to carry layers and layers of code, in order to confirm and double confirm identifies of the crew and people on board. Crew: 2 pilots, 1 comm-tech. Engines: 2 Rolls Royce 'Whirlwind' Nacelles. Weapons: *PROHIBITED* Computer Core: Hakumi Positronics X7

It's very cute whilst remaining a clever, adult-orientated build. Nicely done..!

I particularly like the stables. Really well done..!

Very well put together. I imagine it swishes well..!

Very malevolent.

Very true to the subject material..!

Indeed, looks terribly well done and dangerous, to boot.

The Batman sets seem to, below the real heavy hitters, have three figures. Newer Marvel/DC sets seem to go for 2 heroes and 1 villain. I think two big villains in one set, like the wishes for Joker and Croc in one set, is purely aspirational.

Staggering, indeed..!

I like the white one most. Delicate and deadly..!

Tell your daughter I'll try harder on the candy-type details next time..!

The Starscorn. by skapunkplaything, on Flickr Yaguchi-class Siege Cruiser by skapunkplaything, on Flickr Yaguchi-class Siege Cruiser by skapunkplaything, on Flickr The Yaguchi is a Japanese-made cruiser designed to master the galactic battlefield. At over 400m in length, the ship is armed with several conventional ship-to-ship weapons able to outgun most capital ships. The real sting in it's tail comes from the Starscorn-class Siege Cannon, a dual-barrelled, fixed-fire rail cannon which, when charged and in adequate range can punch through the armour of the most hardy opposition ships and stations. In a synchronous orbit, the cannon can even precision target planetary opposition with devastating effect. Although deadly and dangerous, the Yaguchi (roughly translated to 'Arrow Mouth') is very expensive to purchase and maintain. It's many weapons require tonnes of ammunition and fuel to operate for an extended period. It also requires outside protection from enemy snubfighters and bombers, armed with only nominal AA weaponry. Length: 404m Crew: 200, including marinces. Role: Siege, ship-to-ship, battleship escort. Armament: 2 x Dual STS Cannons 2 x Armour-Piercing Plasma Cannons 2 x 'Longshot' Frag Cannons. 2 x AA-Ion turrets 1 x 'Starscorn' Siege Cannon, fixed.

Great bridge, and wonderfully swooshable.

Very Blacktron..! True to theme. Well done.

The colour scheme is superb.

SyncTech FG-10 Missile Frigate by skapunkplaything, on Flickr SyncTech FG-10 Missile Frigate by skapunkplaything, on Flickr SyncTech FG-10 Missile Frigate by skapunkplaything, on Flickr SyncTech FG-10 Missile Frigate by skapunkplaything, on Flickr Sometimes, a navy wants a rugged, old-fashioned capital ship which dish out punishment and take even more. The newer navies and militaries consider this view quite out of date, and the FG-10 is a successful product of this modern warfare. SyncTech, a Sweedish-Korean company, produced the vessel for their respective navies, but it has been produced under licence for several other states, and the idea copied by even more. A true stand-off weapon, the ship is minimally armed for conventional ship-to-ship (STS) and anti-fighter warfare. It's main potency comes from the four cruise missile launchers, able to fire in serial or in sequence, at other ships, at space platforms or planets. Although slow enough to be destroyed by specialised point defence cannons, the FG-10 is able to destroy much without having to get into cannon range at all. At close-range, the Frigate is no match for a ship as small as the BB-22, but with proper escort and intelligent use, it can be used as an anti-capital ship threat, as well as to destroy space platforms and assault entire planets. Length: 220m Crew: 74. Armament: 4 x fast tracking ion turrets, 2 x Quad STS flak cannon. 2 x dual Sorsvig-class Cruise Missile batteries. Limited ammunition. Computer: Siemens Y2-modular.
