This is super promising. People are so quick to say "steampunk!"

[MOC] CCBS Matoran/Turaga with Mata Heads
SpiderSpaceman replied to mysteriouspi's topic in LEGO Action Figures
Best part mutilation ever. Like this is a lego cutting I approve of. I don't approve of much lego cutting, but this had to be done. -
DC Superheroes 2016 - Rumors and Discussion
SpiderSpaceman replied to just2good's topic in LEGO Licensed
Shoot! I'm getting behind on my Super Heroes "sensible completionism" (all sets/ figures that can be gotten short of being a lucky convention-goer, and not freaking out if I miss a basic non-exclusive figure polybag) - D2C Seeeeeeets! Helicarrier and Tumbler, now Adam West Batcave? (I do want the latter much, much more than the others) Furthermore! A D2C with zero chance of repeated characters! Rich building technique goodness! Fully developed for display, packed with details - I love D2C. Goodbye, hesitation I felt at buying Jokerland last week.- 8,446 replies

REVIEW: 71010 LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 14
SpiderSpaceman replied to WhiteFang's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Mind blown. Also I keep forgetting to say, I love the bat motif on the guitar. I don't think I'd caught that it was there until the official pictures and bios a week or two ago. I want that accessory for my fright knights batlord. Dibs on that sigfig -
REVIEW: 71010 LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 14
SpiderSpaceman replied to WhiteFang's topic in Special LEGO Themes
WhiteFang, is the top of the scientist's head topper authentically like a minifig head? If so, can we see a picture of it with, say, a baseball cap or disco hair? Thanks for the review! -
LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 14 Rumors and Discussion
SpiderSpaceman replied to Robert8's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Do we know if the tiger girl's tail is the same one from the 1st Simpsons series, and if it's striped? Are there any known back prints or alt faces? Basically Robert8's comment is the answer to this -
As long as we can build castles while we talk it out.
-
Fingers crossed for zero steampunkery. I've wanted castle space for years. I'm not crazy about the ninjago clone aspect - with so much focus on individual characters. I'd rather something like space and castle have been, with nameless combatants. Anyway, if it doesn't scratch my itch I'll just keep MOCing things, but I'm hoping for some really cool parts and design aesthetic outta this, like ninjago has provided.

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 14 Rumors and Discussion
SpiderSpaceman replied to Robert8's topic in Special LEGO Themes
I use that for every guy That's a good strategy. I don't know if they would have thought of it. yeah I think this one's not intended to be a costume, however, it is by virtue of being a minifigure, shaped in a way that that's what it necessarily looks like (outside of the guy's terror). I think a plant pot base would have gone a long way. -

The Future of Ninjago
SpiderSpaceman replied to Master_Data's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Why not do pirates? And just give them the same amount of inspired twists of style and anachronism as the other ninjago factions? I know in the show there was a pirate-y couple of episodes, because I'd heard talk and hoped a proper pirate faction had been developed, just to find that it was using plain, pre-designed regular pirates. -
You beat me. Rampage is my hope for the midway property.

Scooby-Doo 2015 Rumours & Discussion
SpiderSpaceman replied to TheLazyChicken's topic in LEGO Licensed
These are the same figure actually. Oh but there is the halloween series with a 2nd CMF witch on the way.- 1,699 replies
-
Oh I wasn't aware but I'll take your word for it. But some themes seem to shuffle between license holders pretty quickly (marvel and cars both jumped from megabloks to lego, tmnt jumped from mega to lego and back, spongebob lego to mega, jurassic park kreo to lego, doctor who, scooby doo...), and since this is warner bros distributed and I know they want heavy representation and variety, I think they'd want to get Looney Tunes in whenever it flips, even if it's a little bit later.
-
Yeah, I want Flash really badly to be in it. And maybe a Road Runner/Wile E pack with an Acme crate, meep meep? Definitely the Tazmanian Devil. (My disinterest in Disney Infinity has always chiefly been because it's not Looney Tunes Infinity.) And the Doctor Who and Scooby Doo would certainly be excellent, but I'm happy enough having the physical figures. The Doctor and his companion, Velma, will certainly get a spot of honor on my desk one way or the other, but baby tardis and baby mystery machine would be too good to pass up. I'm trying to decide whether I want all, none, just the one's in my theme (DC) and the ones I don't have (Witch, Marty)... In any case I hope it does well but not well enough to make them complacent or think they can get away with those prices. (I thought it was generally thought that skylanders, while well designed and well made, make an absurdly greedy profit per figure, like the materials and the tech were not actually that high. I may be totally wrong, and that's just the haters.) I dunno though, I guess Lego's pricing makes sense if it's a $5 figure, a $3 model, and twice $3 of tech. I think I agree with anyone who thinks that the exclusively RFId route and adherence to Tt gameplay (while you can play 150 characters included in several games that play just the same) is just settling for good enough. Grabbing up star power instead of reaching for the stars. I'd be lying if I said I have little interest in Gimli on a hoverboard , but also I really coulda gone for a game with classic themes, really deluxe diverse original figures (touching on old theme archetypes), remakes of some iconic figures, a small smattering of star power, with some visual recognition/customization features, and real building focus. On the one hand the "this game will stay compatible with figures released throughout the life of the theme" is admirable, but on the other it makes me think they are NEVER going to innovate/evolve. (well, I guess that the first game can stay compatible with the figures even if there turns out to be a future game that tackles a different gameplay style with them) The whole "fun pack" assortment seems to be accidentally listed under ZEUS FUN PACK on amazon - if you click on the picture for a bigger view, the assortment title is up in the top right. I was hoping that was a reason to expect the greek god, but it looks like it might just have been a code name, because the starter pack says ZEUS STARTER PACK. At least we have a ninja with lightning powers.

Oh yeah, like on Takadox? That'd be welcome.

I don't think anybody's entry will rise to the level of that magnificent tiki robo ape dude on the frontpage, but I'm looking forward to being proved wrong

This is actually not right either. the Glowkies use the color "Real Minty Blue-ish".
