Ordered six of the cmf on Lego.com (and some other stuff while using some saved vip points) and got Batman, Cyborg, Cheetah, Bat-mite, and two Jokers. Never ordered cmf online before and was happy I only got a single double as well as Batman which, according to others is rare. Today I managed find a box at Walmart (where they’re $3.44 btw) and got Flash, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Sinestro, and Bumblebee through feeling. Could’ve kept going but only wanted to get six more. So far my favorites are Superman, Flash, Cyborg, and Sinestro. I have to say I’m really impressed with how high quality these figures are even compared to ones in sets. I hope they do a series 2 just for the possibility of Jon Kent Superboy, Zatanna, Red Robin, or Doctor Faye which were my most wanted that didn’t get in. Either way, I can’t wait to complete the set soon enough!

Do we have any more info on that yet? Personally, I’m hoping for a collector’s series BvS Batmobile.

Love this wave! I find it funny how they just threw Shazam into a set with Batman and Riddler just like the first set with Flash. I like the bat cave quite a bit and I think it’s the best one since the original (but I still like that one better because of the turnstile). It has a great minifig selection though I would’ve like Tim Drake in his current suit instead of a repeat of Damian and Kate. Two Face and Catwoman are perfect (especially if you’ve read All-Star Batman) and I like Clayface, but the TLBM one was better. I like the miniature trophy room a lot as well. The Mr. Freeze set is a great throwback to the 2008 one. The Batmobile looks like a perfect rendition of the ‘89 one I just hope it’s not $40. The Batwing set is absolutely fantastic and on of the best DC sets in years. The juniors sets also look better than previous ones and I might get the Arkham one for more prison suits and the Harley head and hairpiece. Was hoping for more new designs from DC Supervillains (namely Red Robin and Deathstroke), but what’re you gonna do? edit: 501st post!

Yeah, I’m not a fan of that fan, but it does have recent comic precedence in Rebirth. Personally, I’d like to get a white/red split torso, but i wouldn’t hate the head and headpiece from the game to put on the TLBM version.

Loved that Christmas special! Definitely one of the best in New-Who. Great MOC! If they made a whole DW Lego line, this would make a great set.

Just bought the Inferno Squad BP as I love the characters in the novel and the game’s story mode. I knew beforehand the heads weren’t accurate, but I’m wondering does anyone know some good options for their heads and hair (including Seyn)? Also a good design for the ID10 droid (although I might just mod the one from the Praetorian guard pack)?

I liked 75973 a lot (despite some flaws) but I haven’t gotten 75975 yet. It really depends on how much you want to spend and which characters you’d rather have first.

I’ll preface this with I’ve been trying to cut down on themes I buy sets for , but I’ll give an honorable mention to Harry Potter as all of those sets look great, but not worth it to me as a non-HP fan. Best Theme: DC Superheroes (Lex’s mech is probably one of my favorite mid-sized sets I’ve ever built) Best Minifigure/Figure: Reverse Flash Best Set: Voltron Worst Theme: Brickheads (Lego should stick to what they do well rather than capitalize on other popular products like Funko) Worst Minifigure/Figure: Pilot Luke (from 75218)(I hate how large the new helmet is and no printed chinstrap is ridiculous) Worst Set: nothing is worse than the First Order AT-ST, But shout out to the Imperial Conveyex Transport for being overpriced AND only including the front car and one middle car. Most Anticipated for 2019: Apocalypseburg, Inferno Squad, and what is hopefully the first of several Overwatch waves.

Ah, I see. I’ve been mostly getting my new set info from Instagram as I’ve been absent from here for a while. Though, I do hope they end up making a new UCS Tantive IV (since I already have 10198).

Good to know! Maybe I’ll get it on sale later this year, but I’m still not in much of a rush as I do have both previous versions.

I kinda fingered it would be farther along that she thought, but she did make it sound like a winter wave for the end of the year rather than a summer wave. IMO we will probably get a second wave, but if the first one doesn’t sell well, then the third is out of the picture. I am hoping it goes that far at least though as, for the most part, I like the sets I’ve built so far. Oh that’s a very good idea! I’ll keep that in mind for when I get that set.

I'm not the biggest fan of either character either, but I want the complete roster, especially if this happens to be the only wave of sets. Personally, I most wanted to get Pharah (my main), but preferred to get all the smaller sets first as I'd rather have more characters and builds than one set that I mainly just want for the figures. Also, for $90, the Watchpoint: Gibraltar set should've at least had one more minifigure even is it was a generic scientist or astronaut. I really think they could've pulled off Genji's face especially considering the scarred Anakin figure and the various Vader heads. I think they could have done something like Metallo's head in Lego DC Supervillains, but it would've likely ended up like Mercy's head. Speaking of which, are there any other good alternative heads for her before I get that set eventually (besides Tallie as I don't have that set and would likely keep her as is if I did get it)?

Didn’t realize the Tantive IV rumor was just speculation. Hope the ISD still happens (even if it was also speculation). Also, since I have the last versions, does anyone think the AT-AP or Droid Gunship are worth buying? They seem as close to direct remakes as I’ve seen in a while. Otherwise I’m only interested in the BPs. Sadly I bet I’m not the only one who feels that way. Hopefully the summer wave is better.

I think it goes without saying that I too hope for the rest of the roster to show up in a wave 2 and beyond. Although, I really hope that we get the rest of the release characters before the any later released characters. Since they keep adding more to the game itself I don’t want to wait several years for all of the original heroes. Also, I hope any rerelease of wave 1 characters have different skins (within reason). I think a large D2C set would be a great thing for this theme. A large section of a popular map with enough characters for two full teams would be a good seller I think.

So I just got 4/6 of the sets (other than Gibraltar and Bastion). I’m generally happy with most of them (but I agree with the Hanzo and Genji flaws (seriously no face print on Genji?), and I haven’t looked back in this thread to see most other opinions, but I really think Reinhardt should’ve had his shield for that price and I don’t know why D.Va can’t hold onto the controls without modification. That seems like a major issue that should’ve been fixed while designing the set. Other than that stuff I really like the builds and think they’ll all look good on display. I’d also like to add that (and I know they’re probably not the best source) but I talked to a Lego Store employee about more possible more sets and she told me that they probably have more sets designed, but they’re waiting to see how this wave sells and if it sells well more sets will be out late this year.
