    [MOC] Iron

    Churchill replied to DwalinF's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi

    The headlight and the shape in the front add to the locomotive look. Great job!

    Good work. Always a fan of an A-wing MOC!

    Those are some great shots. You did a good job with the water effects.

    Thanks for the well done review. It just makes sense that the Joker himself would be the first one to use Robin's sticker in a new "creative" way.

    I'm currently building the set, and my opinion has changed favorably now that I'm building it. The atomic pile section in particular was very well designed, and a larger build than I thought it was going to be. I feel that I got my money's worth, but that's just my opinion. I do think that there is way too much negativity in the DC forums. Considering that Batman originally went away, every new set we get is amazing. Complaining about this price, that set, the lack of this minifigure or in general "what's Lego going to do for me next?" makes me feel like the age and maturity levels on these forums has slipped a lot.

    I have to agree, though I won't pass. Hopefully the three "sections" will be modular and we can switch sides for the poles. I think the overall color scheme should have been darker, and I don't think they pulled the reactor off as well as I'd hoped. It's a first day buy for me. Then to wait out the over the top exaggerated nostalgia and look forward to the next wave.

    Batman's head glows in the dark. When the cowl is on, the eyes glow.

    Clash of the Heroes is a great little set. I think part to the appeal is the armor variant, and the glow in the dark eyes.. But the way, DC is selling the Killer Croc action figure from TAS with a Baby Doll figure. Who knows? Maybe DC likes her enough that we will see her.

    I like that we're getting a shield with WW. And use of the cockpit piece is interesting.

    I just finished building it; I found it at a TRU in the U.S. I guess I see the gap but it's so small that if I hadn't heard about it, I might not have noticed it. I suppose if Customer Service acknowledged that it is a real error then it is. Seems to me though that this is a non issue. Minimal gap. I wouldn't let it dissuade anyone from picking it up now.

    I've been thinking for a long time that many under 18 folks have joined the forums. It's almost painful to read some of the threads anymore. The DC and Marvel rumors threads come to mind. Sometimes it feels like I'm listening to a bunch of pre-teens trying to prove they know more than each other about everything. I don't post very often.... I just don't feel like it's worth posting to hear myself talk or just boost my post count. I wish others could show the same restraint.

    Two of my daughters are building this as we speak. I agree the design is a lot smaller than I would have liked, but they're loving it. No question the figures are the real draw here. And at 6 and almost five years old they're doimg a good job building so far. At least for the 4-6 range in my house, this set is a home run. Thanks for the great review, Mostlytechnic!

    I've been reading Batman, Detective Comics, and Batman Eternal. I'm not a big fan of Greg Capullo's faces- they all look the same to me. I'm enjoying Eternal, but won't really be able to grasp it all until I can read it in a trade. I really wanted to like the new Harley Quinn, but I don't like what they've done with her. Especially that her skin is now dyed white permanently! I read it though, but started New Suicide Squad for a little bit of a different take on Harley. I think she was so much better pre- New 52. I loved Geoff Johns' run on Aquaman. I hope that Aquaman will get some much needed respect in the next few years.

    I agree Robianco. This thread is completely different from how these used to run. I was following this mostly for availability of the sets, but now that I have them, this thread is a waste of time. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to some Reviewer's Acadamy reviews of these sets to see what folks really think about them.

    I like the Christo so much better, and it's not just the uniform. The facial expression captures his personality so much better.

    For anyone who pre-ordered from Game Stop, was the Plastic Man figure listed in the confirmation email? Also, I have an XBox 360. How do the DLCs work? can you download any and all of them if you're willing to pay for them? Thanks!

    I'm getting a little tired of all the Batman bashing. Some of us love Batman and welcome it all. I firmly believe that without Batman, and the popularity of Batman, we wouldn't be getting ANY superheroes. No Batman, no Hawkman. No Batman, no Cyborg. No Green Lantern, let alone Green Arrow. Get over it.

    Now THIS is an Aquaman design I can get behind! Outrageous!

    I think that the degree of moderation is fine. I've been on for a few years, so I know who the moderators are and really have never had any problems with them. If anything, I'd like to see more moderating. Specifically, I'd like to see the age restrictions better enforced, and I'd like to see the terse few word posts reigned in. I don't post that often, and try to post only when I really have something to add. I find it annoying that member's post counts soar based on short useless posts. Maybe based on what I said above about people driving their post counts up, I'd like to see some merit given for longevity, as long as there is a minimum amount of participation. Ten short posts a day doesn't define participation. I'm on EB several times a day in the forums, looking at reviews, etc. I just don't feel the need to "hear myself talk" by posting constantly. Thank you so much to all of the moderators, reviewers, spies and members for making Eurobricks work. It's a nice place to go sometimes when the real world can be so stressful.

    Mr Toxic from Detective Comics would be a perfect use for the Infearno head piece. Not well known- but it would be an easy fig for Lego to make from existing parts.

    Heck I'd be happy to get those posters but I haven't figured out how. I'm relieved about the exclusive. I light pick it up in the aftermarket later, but I don't feel it's essential.
  22. Churchill
    Well, I can pass on that. That's a relief.
  23. Churchill
    That interior is just incredible. I was already sold on this but just..... Wow.
  24. Churchill
    Oh yeah, I'm good with this. I love the new utility belt on Batman.

    I'd like to get a better look at that grapnel gun. I've built a working one with the new firing guns, but there's a heck of a lot of string hanging off.
