  1. I wonder if we will get Falcon in his film appearance rather than the cartoon one. Or if he is the third minifig in the smaller Avengers one. As to why no Thor 2 sets, I bet it was something along the lines of, "We can only make x amount of sets for each license per year. We have a lot of properties to work with, so which of these best lends themselves as LEGO products that the target consumers will want to purchase?" Without a doubt, Spider-man, Avengers and X-men were top of the list. Guardians of The Galaxy, will probably be a large spaceship set (which fits with the above requirements) and the first over $100 Marvel set I believe. I would have loved to have seen a Rainbow Bridge set though. I wonder if LEGO couldn't find any suitable set material from the film, plus the release time of the film is not in line with normal set waves.
  2. I think it looks great personally and I can't wait to see it. I had anticipated it to be the best of the phase 2 films.
  3. After everything, it is hard for me to take CUUSOO seriously now.
  4. The Helicarrier will appear in it? Another missed chance for that set, it is looking like TLG only has 1 small WS set planned.
  5. How is the popularity dropping off, any sales numbers to prove this? The way I see it, TLM has nothing to do with keeping CMF alive as a line, it is just promotion for the film, nothing more nothing less. S13 could be a questionable business choice, but seems more like exploration into a new territory. Often new ideas or concepts are tried by companies. S14 is based on a product based on a product (like S12, so LEGO IP). Funcom said the plan is every time a new CMF series comes out, they will come with codes for in game redemption. That would get complicated if CMF started having licenses across multiple IP's. The only one this applies to so far would be S13. S12 and S14 will contain various minifigs from multiple themes, not based on a singular IP.
  6. I don't think that is a new one (in a new color), it is just the lighting.
  7. An amazing amount of fantastic entries to chose from! 12. Bat Camper by Dr. Spock (1 vote) 27. Surf Van by Plate (1 vote) 29. Funicular Railway by eurotrash (1 vote) 34. Blacktron Camper by Leewan (1 vote) 60. Pencil Sharpener by Orsenway (1 vote) 76. Star Camper 3000 by Oky (1 vote) 112. Invisible Camper by Dr. Spock (1 vote) 147. Shield VW by ultron32 (1 vote) 169. Steampunk Airship by nemoona (1 vote)
  8. I agree, this is good if you don't have any Pirate sets (at all), it's a decent starter pack with some interesting parts. But if you have been following the Pirates theme, then this is not very interesting. Series 14 should provide some excellent pirate minfigs though.
  9. It is more likely to balance the sets between DC and Marvel out. That would bring the total number of Marvel sets to 18, and DC 16 (2012-2014). I can see 2 more DC sets later in 2014.
  10. Thanks for those descriptions. The Spider-helicopter does sound like the one in the game, a VTOL. I only hope we get a better Spider-man fig (doubt it). Why 3 USM sets and no ASM 2 sets? I also wonder if the plane in the Joker set is the Batwing from Arkham Origins? I hope the black suit Batman is a new print.
  11. Were any figs visible? Or any pictures from TLM sets?
  12. I think he is based on his ASM 2 appearance.The hairpiece is a perfect match for the character. The USM Peter doesn't have hair like that. Daredevil has one of the best designs IMHO, I would love to get him as a real fig. We need a CMF Superheroes theme.
  13. That little Batman set looks great, easily the best $13 Superhero set yet. I hope we get a Batman with the Arkham Origins design. That would be perfect.
  14. Nice find, those make the sets sound much better. I am most interested in the Ice Cream Machine and Castle Cavalry sets.
  15. You can see a glimpse of him here. He is a robot cowboy it looks like. So I am guessing that set will be a Western one, similar to what was shown in the trailer.
  16. Unfortunately German site Werst has them listed liked this: Marvel (The Ultimate Spider-Man) Marvel Set 1 (76014) – $19.99 Marvel Set 2 (76015) – $24.99 Marvel Set 3 (76016) – $48.99 Also the descriptions are pretty definitive for the Ulitamte Goblin and Doc Ock set. The only one left is the smallest and that has a minifig that doesn't sound like anyone from ASM 2. At this point, I am hoping there is a retailer exclusive or summer set for ASM 2 but I am not very optimistic we will get one.
  17. Piranha replied to Piranha's post in a topic in LEGO Licensed
    I could see Ant-Man getting 1-2 sets in 2015, depending on how many Avengers 2 sets TLG decides to make. If LEGO has acquired a license with Fox, I would like to see a set featuring the Adamantium Silver Samurai mech suit from The Wolverine.
  18. I found this on 2ttoys.nl, they have listed the names of the sets: Dutch: LEGO® Movie 70800 Ontsnappings-glider LEGO® Movie 70801 Smeltkamer LEGO® Movie 70802 Achtervolging LEGO® Movie 70803 Dwaas paleis LEGO® Movie 70804 IJsmachine LEGO® Movie 70805 Afvalkraker LEGO® Movie 70806 Kasteelcavalerie LEGO® Movie 70807 MetalBeard's duel LEGO® Movie 70808 Supermotor achtervolging LEGO® Movie 70809 Lord Business schuilplaats Google translate: LEGO ® 70800 Movie escape glider LEGO ® Movie 70801 Melt Room LEGO ® Movie 70802 Pursuit LEGO ® 70803 Fool Movie Palace LEGO ® Movie 70804 Ice Machine LEGO ® Movie 70805 Waste Kraker LEGO ® Movie 70806 Castle Cavalry LEGO ® Movie 70807 Metal Beard's duel LEGO ® Movie 70808 Super Motor pursuit LEGO ® Movie 70809 Lord shelter Business Anyone here speak dutch, that can provide a better translation?
  19. Also, they announced a demo will be available Tuesday ( 10/15) for Xbox, PS3 and PC.
  20. Meh, I would have rather seen Starkiller.
  21. Some more characters were announced at NYCC today, source. Interesting, they confirmed ASM 2 Electro. I hope we get at least one set from the film.
  22. That is a great new version of Nightwing, thanks for sharing.
  23. I was just thinking that too, the lab set sounds like a level in the game. I would prefer game based sets over ones based on the TV series. Was a spider helicopter ever featured in USM? Or was it just something made up for the game? If so, there is a good chance the sets are based on the game. Which in turn is based off many renditions.
  24. I would expand that to the entire theme, including DC. It looks like there will only be 7 Marvel sets next year, 1 X-men, 1 GotG plus those mentioned earlier. If the license has terms for equal sets between DC/Marvel, the extra set next year would make up for the missing one this year. The other 2 DC sets would then be either summer, or retailer exclusives. I again think TLG is following a 2 year cycle with D2C sets, with one coming next in 2015. I don't think the X-mansion is likely at all. LEGO does not like to include large amounts of exclusive characters in D2C sets. Even the Death Star, the one with the most figs for a exclusive only had a handful of new characters included. I also think the X-mansion would be too similar to the Arkham set on shelves and they would want to make the D2C for Marvel something different.
