As tired as I am of DC Super Heroes being approximately 96% Batman, I will say that I'd like a new Batboat. We've had two new Batmobiles, two new Batplanes, two new Batcycles, and yet Batman's current naval strength remains pitiful. That little scuba thingy just doesn't cut it.

Wasn't there some kinda Batboat in the Aquaman/Mr. Freeze set not too long ago?

No, that was the Batblade, built for traversing ice and snow.

The only actual Batboat was 7780, and that was along the lines of a hovercraft. I'd like to see a sleek speedboat similar to the one Aldrich Killen drives in 76006.

And yes, a new Killer Croc figure of any size would be nice. Toss in a standard Lego crocodile as a pet for him.

Kinda…

Still need a better Batwatercraft though.

But Lego Batman 2 officially calls it the Batboat. If they are making another though, I agree with the Aldrich Killian boat route

Yes, but the video game Batboat doesn't have the skis on the bottom. Besides, it makes more sense if the Batblade was included in a Mr. Freeze set.

I'm sensing a pattern with the SDCC Marvel figures, it seems to be a Spider-Man variant and a female from the comics, my predictions are

Spider-Man:

2099

Miles Morales

Superior

Bombastic Bag-Man

Comic Female:

Scarlet Witch

Wasp

Emma Frost

Invisible Woman (Preview Fig)

I hope this is not the case though

I would hope we'll see a Wasp figure in a set around the time Ant-Man comes out. I know they skipped the last few standalone movies for set tie-ins, but I feel like Ant-Man will get something since it's a new property (for films, anyway). That said I don't know for sure that Wasp will be in the Ant-Man film, but I can't imagine how they could leave her out entirely.

News for the "Superman vs Batman" movie sets. http://www.manofstee...an-in-may-2016/

Yeah, that's what we'd heard from some of the toy fair recaps. I'm not real bothered by it, personally. If the MoS, Bat vs. Bane, and to an extent the Iron Man 3 sets are any real indication it's that Lego does better with comic/cartoon tie-ins than movie ones. At least in my opinion.

There was someone here who had a "friend" who was a Lego designer confirm that we're gettin Hal Jordan next year

Yeah, I also have a "friend" who "works at Lego" who says we're getting a 5000 piece D2C Justice League Watchtower with Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl, Cyborg, Shazam, and 8 other minfigs. :tongue:

I take the rumors with a grain of salt when they don't come from somewhere like All About Bricks with a serious track record of being right. We were supposedly gonna see GL this year according to some other rumor but that seems unlikely.

Yeah, and I have a "friend" who says we're getting Avengers Tower, the X-Mansion, and Dr. Doom's castle. Each will come with no less than ten minifigures and a macrofigure and retail for under $100.

Also, I checked and it turns out the vehicle in the Mr. Freeze/Aquaman set is indeed officially called the Batboat. Nevertheless, I'd still enjoy another version.

They were joking. I can't tell if you are joking as well, Rinzler.

Please remember, people, that sarcasm doesn't translate well in printed form. It especially confuses members who either speak English as a second language or who skim the posts without reading their full content. So be responsible with sarcasm.

That's why I included the " :tongue: ." Also the whole second half of my post.

I'm not asking for you to feel sorry for them. I'm asking that you follow my advice. Let's not make this a thing. It's been a long day.

I hadn't realized that other suits of Spiderman had appeared in the cartoon. I really don't see why Marvel/TLG couldn't have included at least Iron Spider in one set, then. TLG, at least, realizes that they have to use variants to sell Batman, why not Spiderman?

I would be over-the-moon if we got any Green Lantern. I'm more than a little disappointed that we may have to wait another year.

I'm a little disappointed that it's not Kyle Rayner, but life's life. Though I agree with Cornelius, any Green Lantern would be welcome, so long as they don't give him a car!

Kyle Rayner seemed pretty unlikely from the start, given he's easily the least used of all the human Green Lanterns. But, with one Green Lantern comes all the others in purist custom. GL body, Robin or Nightwing mask, black spiky hair and ouila! Kyle Rayner!

Oh don;'t get me wrong, I knew he was unlikely from the start. I just wish we got him because I'm a fan, though your solution sounds very practical and the MCW thread will be a good place for me to just breath and see the figures I know Lego will never make. I just can't wait until the Steamroller comes out, then I can finally have a purist Batgirl.
