DC Superheroes 2016 - Rumors and Discussion

[Captain Britain]

Not sure if I missed this being posted but it looks like it gives us a much clearer look at the box (the original one I saw was quite small / blurry?).

Thank you! Scarecrow's face is interesting-perhaps more gleefully evil on the other side?

No worries! Was on minifigurepriceguide (to give credit to whoever posted it originally!). Not sure about Scarecrows face close up - looks like he has frowning eyes though. Killer Moth looks like a mask over an orange head maybe? Plus a new bats is always cool!

[8BrickMario]

Accidental repost. Hmm...what to say? Oh! I like Killer Moth now. I think the detailed helmet is a good thing, as it actually resembles his namesake. Gas Mask Batman looks promising, and is necessary for the Bat's prepared nature to be represented.

Nice!

Why couldn't they call it his Hazbat suit.... Instead just boring Gas Mask Batman

Anyone else thinking "Are you my mummy?"

I was hoping for Hazbat suit too haha. Glad we've finally seen it all a bit closer up anyway. Although still not sold on that Batcopter.. that's getting moved on straight away!!

How long has Ronan the Accuser been Blue Beetle?

[Captain Britain]

How long has Ronan the Accuser been Blue Beetle?

Only on weekends.. and he makes sure it's somewhere out of town

How long has Ronan the Accuser been Blue Beetle?

Ever since Bruce Wayne got fed up on Batman so wore antlers and became a villain. Then got bored so became a cop, whose truck was attacked by the villainous Doc Ock to steal his valuables. So fed up once more. He got mad, so stole a serum to allow a specialised armour with the world's heaviest backpack, which had the ability to shrink. He got beat tho, so finally chose to shave off his hair and become Lex Luthor

Makes sense. Did Ann Nocenti write it?

[N_Cat]

So does Blue Beetle have a new piece specifically designed to fit around (Marvel) Beetle's wings? That's cool. I still can't really make out any details on Scarecrow or Batman, but I'm sure they look nice.

[psqidexslizer248]

Does it bother anyone else that Moth's wings are trans orange instead of solid orange?

[Falconfan1414]

A YouTube channel has a all of the dc figures gives us the best look at red hood croc and scarecrow

[8BrickMario]

DC figs at the end! Scarecrow and Beetle look great! And Moth's wings seem to be solid here.

[Captain Nemo]

They look better overall up close. Still iffy on Killer Moth's non-game design. I just hope it's a scenario where like the orange and purple Two-Face, I hate it in pictures, but love in person.

Did they reuse General Hux's face for Captain Boomerang? Hope not...that would be lazy.

[Deathstroke77]

Won't let me see the video. Can you provide the address of the web page rather than embedding the video for me?

[8BrickMario]

I tried to, but it embedded automatically.

[psqidexslizer248]

I absolutely love that Killer Croc, those earlier photos did not do him Justice. He is easily my second favorite figure of this wave.

Moth's wings don't look nearly as translucent as I thought they would, which is good. Even though they're not solid orange, it's hard to tell the difference.

Blue Beetle on the other hand, looks worse now I've seen him better. That extra armor piece is just too big around the neck and looks ridiculous Imo.

The one that really stands out for me is Captain Boomerang. I don't care if that face is reuse, it's perfect for him (reminds me of his look from Assault on Arkham). The printing is absolutely perfect too. He is definitely my favorite figure from this wave.

I'm so surprised.

Actually, I think Scarecrow's face looks rather Arkham-ish. I'm not crazy about the random patch on the forehead, but I still think he's a worthy successor to the Arkham one, and definitely looks more like his namesake.

I thought I liked the basic Moth from the games, but I do have to say that it looked like nothing. This version is taken from the days of detail in the comics which make him look vaguely mothlike.

[Darth Lurtz]

The video also confirms that the Mighty Micros figures have back printing.

[Ultron]

Still not a fan of that killer croc...blue beetle is awesome though! Favorite fig of the wave

Thanks! Red Hood looks great. Will definitely be putting my red hood piece over his head for a better AK design.

[psqidexslizer248]

Not sure if anyone noticed this yet, but the box art for the Croc set is in the background.

[Deathstroke77]

Yea, I noticed that, just wish it was the full thing. I'm definitely much more hyped for 76055 than previously seeing the minifigures, but I'm not too keen on Croc still. Would've much preferred him in dark green.
