Re: Lego DC 2012...
With all the transparent green pieces that was my first thought too
I've sometimes removed the cockpit, modded it slightly and chucked Riddler in there for a different display.
I'm sure they'll do GL, they already made the minifigure from the film.

Yea. I had no idea it was a giveaway at SDCC and NYCC, or I would have parked my ass at the LEGO booth until I had one

TRU online is having a BOGO sale throughout the week. Ended up getting the batcave for half price!

Oh no, I've gotten the custom bug again I found an easy one. Take this head:
And put it on a Lex Luthor body and you've got a nice and easy Black Mask!

Amazon just got the Batcave back in stock again at $70

Re: Lego DC 2012...
Finished the Batcave today and was looking up the Fun House set on Lego only to find it gone from the site. Is that normal for an item to disapear like that?

Re: Lego DC 2012...
TRU has revealed the "final" boxart for the Lego Avengers sets. Including the bad guys who are hard to make out. They look like some Asgardian robots or something...
https://www.brickset.com/news/article/?ID=2607
EDIT: Found the Lego Marvel thread and posted it there too, but I figured it'd be interesting to see for the DC fans as well.
I'm guessing if they do any TDKR sets, maybe they'll show up towards the Fall? Or perhaps as a business decision they just don't want to announce them as they may hurt the release/sales of the CURRENT and upcoming products.

Re: Lego DC 2012...
Other than the LEGO store nearby, nowhere that I've looked has kept any of the sets but the larger figures in stock for long. Any TDKR sets will sell, regardless of what's currently on the market.
I haven't seen any of the magnets yet, but a LEGO store clerk told me those were coming along with keychains

Re: Lego DC 2012...
Hahaha! Silly eBay scalpers.
Here you go:

Be careful with the magnets. LEGO now typically glues the pieces together, making them actual... magnets. Not minifigs with swappable parts.
I don't think I'll ever buy any LEGO from TRU. The exclusives like the Y-Wing can be had from my LEGO store at regular retail with points, with the coupons they mail me, or online when they run their occasional free shipping specials. The Batcave at TRU is $20 over retail. Ridiculous.

Re: Lego DC 2012...
Yeah, I don't know why they bother with the magnets when they basically ruin figure doing so. Gimme more sets over those anyday.
Yeah, TRU's prices are nuts. I only bought the funhouse from them last week because of the BOGO 1/2 sale. So I got two and sold the second on Amazon to not only make up the difference but basically get my set for just over $20
But the Batcave is so over priced that you can't really do anything but break even on that thing with a BOGO sale. $2-5 is really the max on being able to get a sale there make any sense, not $20 more

Re: Lego DC 2012...
The magnets used to be great i've got the original Batan ones and the Harry Potter ones (last before they glued them to bricks)

Re: Lego DC 2012...
Does anyone know if the original Batman Lego magnets were actual mini figures or were they like the new ones and not actual figures?

Re: Lego DC 2012...
I've got all of the original sets both past and present, but have passed on the updated Batwing/Joker and Batmobile/Two-face so far. I don't really collect variants is my reasoning. But looking closely at the new Batwing box today at Wal-Mart, it became apparent that the vehicle is at least 40% smaller this time around. Can anyone confirm or refute? I'll buy it if it really is that different.

Re: Lego DC 2012...
All of the sets are totally different, even if similarly themed. Which sucks because I'm in the oppposite boat. I missed all of the originals but have all the new ones.

Re: Lego DC 2012...
Yeah the newer Batplane and helicopter are quite a bit smaller. Standing the newer one on the tale next to the original, its just over half the length. The Two-Face set is quite a bit cooler than the original, imo. It actually comes with a small building instead of just a guard rail. But, like the Batplane the Batmobile is quite a bit smaller. I also think the new Two-Face truck has cooler features.

Re: Lego DC 2012...
I just hate the new Two-face colors. I just love the black and white look so the orange and purple isn't my first choice. But dang those original set prices are insane. Well, the BIN prices are anyway. What ever happened to AUCTIONS on ebay?
