In the teaser video, Sam is shown with hair so I hope the set comes with hair as well. In fact, I want all three characters to have both their hair and helmets, but I bet they will cheap out for the 'girl'. Please let tron have his tron face and not an unprinted head. -
Note that Tron/Rinzler has two disks on his back, but I suspect the bottom disk is just a regular 2x2 round plate. I thought they would use those ring weapons found in the Black Panther sets, but I'm ok if the 2x2 tile is printed nicely. Now, if Quorra had her car, then it'll seem less weird than having her just hanging out on the light cycle grid. Then the set will be similar to this one:
-
Got it. Just put a 2x2 plate on the edge of the round plate next to the hinge side because that has the most room. Then wedge your thumb into the space next to the 2x2 plate and basically try to get the 2x2 plate off. The round plate should come off with it. Thanks!
-
Do you suggest I leverage it out from the edge or the center hole? Did you use any tools?

For the few LEGO Pod sets, can the round plate behind the cover be easily removed? That is, is it glued on or is it just snapped in? I think the 1x2 plate on the right side of the pod glued on but I'm not sure about the round plate since it can wiggle a bit. But maybe it's glued to another piece that fastens it to the cover.

I found the info I needed from here: https://www.coleka.com/en/lego/lego-brickheadz_r580 and other sources to make this list: 40 - Han Solo 39 - Chewbacca 38 - Gamora 37 - Star Lord 36 - Thanos 35 - Iron Man MK50 34 - Mrs Claus 33- Mr Claus 32 - Turkey 31 - Witch 30 - Easter Bunny 29 - Valentine's Bee 27 & 28 - Boba Fett & Han Solo in Carbonite 26 - Kylo Ren 25 - Rey 24 - Cyborg 23 - Aquaman 22 - Wonder Woman 21 - The Flash 20 - Captain Phasma 19 - Finn 18 - Master Wu 17 - Lloyd 15 & 16 - Spider-Man & Venom 13 & 14 - Supergirl & Martian Manhunter 12 - Beast 11 - Belle 10 - Captain Armando Salazar 09 - Captain Jack Sparrow 08 - The Hulk 07 - Black Widow 06 - Iron Man 05 - Captain America 04 - The Joker 03 - Robin 02 - Batgirl 01 - Batman XX - Black Panther & Doctor Strange XX - Iron Man & Captain America XX - Batman & The Joker XX - Superman & Wonder Woman So the four SDCC brickheadz-preview double sets are not included in the numbering system, but the 3 following SDCC double sets are. It just seems so weird that LEGO would make the release number so prominent on the packaging and yet offer no online/offline way to look at the collection. If you go to the LEGO brickheadz site, it'll just show the latest 8 sets with DC and Star Wars. Won't the general public wonder why they can never find release 13 - 16 and 27 - 28? Why even make the SDCC sets a part of the same release numbering system if almost no one can get them?
-
Is there a listing or database of Brickheadz that uses the release number in the lower-right corner of the boxes? I'm not talking about the normal LEGO set number. For example, the season bee set has a release number of 29. There were some releases that didn't have this release number so I wanted to see if these sets are skipped or included in the numbering order.

I'm not sure if we know the bag color of this series, but I would love the plate have some way to indicate the series that it is for, either by color (ideally matching bag color) and/or a print (like batman series 2 or brickheadz). For my current CFM display, I add plates under the black baseplate that closely matches the color of that series. This way, if I ever take out a figure from the display or mix up figure from different series, I have an easy way to quickly return each figure back to its series. I don't think they have repeat the same bag color yet for the main CMF series, but for the sub-series (the licensed ones) and repeats, they can just put a logo or number there. I know you hate the logo but you can either turn the plate around or bricklink a ton of the generic black ones.

I've collected all the sets but am waiting to get a console to finally play them. Regarding the emulated arcade games in the midway pack, are the originally multi-player games, like gauntlet, limited to one or possibly two players? If so, then if I want to have 3-4 players, then I'm limited to the season 2 battle arenas?

Actually, I prefer the updated faces. I suppose it helps tell a better narrative. But the big joke in the Detective Office set is that the wanted poster shows the classic face that all the minifigures have. And wouldn't it be funny if all the heads are dual-sided with the classic faces on one side for purists?

What do you mean 'ninjago is everywhere'? It's not as if there are ninjago police, fire, and construction sets. For city-focused builders, ninjago sets have some useful design elements: More variety of city clothing (yellow-skin compatible!) and characters City-related builds The same can be said of the first LEGO movie, where we got nicely designed ice cream and sanitation vehicles and many interesting city characters. And I have incorporated the 'future' police vehicles into my city... kind of like bladerunner or minority report. Not much from the LEGO Batman movie, unless you're interested in police-related items. LEGO should use their midway license (from LEGO Dimensions, rip) and create a video arcade or put some arcade cabinets in the back room of a store. I have fond memories of visiting a local italian knick-knack shop after school to play their arcade games in the back room. Kids these days won't really know what an arcade is. Heck, they may not even know what a see-saw is. But these throwbacks should appeal to the AFOL.

Not sure if this is a good strategy, but I usually buy full-price items like the modulars on VIP 2x days and use the points later for other sets when they are discounted. But sometimes LEGO may force my hand like with the detective's office, where they offered the companion flower cart set and the holidays already drained me of any non-modular sets to buy. I think that this is the only time LEGO has released a companion set to a modular building before. Didn't we at one point tried to use this set to forecast an upcoming building? Didn't work. :)

In regards to the fear of a clone maker releasing a set based purely on pre-release info, has that even happened in the past? They can probably reverse engineer smaller sets based just on just photos, but a modular building would be pretty hard. Of course, I'm not counting the inside-job possibility, where the clone maker can obtain parts or even the instruction booklets from manufacturing. Too bad the price of modular buildings don't usually go down over time. At most you would time your purchase to coincide with other promotions like double points and promotional sets.
