Starscream759 Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Texture hacking is just putting a recolored version of a character's skin over the same model. This isn't that, these are brand new (potentially fabricated) models, complete with textures. If it were the latter, let's say the Green Arrow textures were put over Legolas' model (using texture hacking) it would look like Legolas, but with Green Arrow's colors, and prints. The texture for Green Arrow's hood would also not register, as Legolas does not have anything around his neck or back. TL;DR: If this was texture hacking, it would look like Legolas (hypothetically) with Green Arrow's colors. These are new (potentially hacked) models. Then again we don't know if they are in the game. I think we'll need more confirmation if it's true. Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 These are fakes, we're not getting them. Quote
Koquillion Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 Assuming (for now) that these photo's are real, I wonder if this is anything to do with the 'missing' expansion pack numbers? All of the packs run in sequence from 71201 to 71241 apart from 71208 and 71224 to 71226 which don't appear. Could be that these were planned characters but they were pulled for some reason? Quote

Likely because they appear in TV shows rated 15 on Amazon. Quote
Ashnflash Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) That would make sense for Green Arrow to be in there so that Legolas isn't the only character that can shoot the arrows. But that Supergirl design is like nothing we've seen.... Also the hearts in the top left are the classic ones which makes me think that they never finished working on these characters Edited March 27, 2016 by Ashnflash Quote
Koquillion Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) Likely because they appear in TV shows rated 15 on Amazon. Batman vs. Superman is getting an 'R' rated Ultimate Edition and they aren't shying away from publicising LD on the back of its PG-13 rating release. I also don't think they'd restrict use of any DC character because of a relatively minor pay to watch TV series, this is the LEGO DC universe which is mostly based on the comicbooks, after all. If normal(should I say 'proper'??) LEGO has Green Arrow and Supergirl, I think it would be judged OK in LD or other LEGO DC games. Edited March 27, 2016 by Koquillion Quote

Lego even did Arrow in LB3 and even got Stephen Amell to voice GA so I don't see why it wouldn't be feasible for LD... Quote
Ashnflash Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 HEYYY! So I'm assuming that there will be a Lego Batman Movie pack! There has to be right!? Quote
DuckBricks Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 HEYYY! So I'm assuming that there will be a Lego Batman Movie pack! There has to be right!? I wouldn't even discount a level pack given the amount of marketing and advertising these movies get. Quote
The Lego Nolan Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 HEYYY! So I'm assuming that there will be a Lego Batman Movie pack! There has to be right!? Probably, wouldn't be out until next year though. Quote
LegoPercyJ Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 On the Green Arrow/Supergirl thing: Someone said, "Checked this morning. Definitely real, green arrow character I'd 45 and Super girl is I'd 46." So all I have to do is use something like this and plug in I'd 45 & I'd 46? Quote
SpiderSpaceman Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 Speaking of upcoming packs (Lego Batman Movie speculation that is; I ain't egging on shady business, mods!), I just wish they could call back in voice actors to fill out interactions with new additions. And get Nancy Cartwright in it for god's sake. And hire a writer to make more compelling interactions? I do love the cyberman's comments to homer though, just discovered that gem. Quote
gamejutzu Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Will there be variants for the Ninjago movie? Or will the game just ignore its existence? I mean, there can't be two Batmans playable either... Right? Quote

Right? I think we get two Batmans because they are in The LEGO Movie and they meet in that. The different versions of the Ninjago characters don't meet in TLM so only the LD version appears. Quote
Darth Wayne Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 So i just got Aquaman yesterday and took him for an underwater spin right away... He's a BEAST underwater (obviously) almost too fast for his own good for races sometimes ;), however i don't quite get the point of his aquamobile? I mean, not only does he not NEED it but that much was obvious from the start (just like Superman doesn't need that jet) but he's actually crippled when using it, as it's slow as molasses compared to him just swimming around naturally.

I rarely use any vehicles unless it's necessary, 'Docking' for example. If I can crack a flying race with Wonder Woman, why bother with a vehicle? I do hope that as LD develops that there will be more opportunity to use them in game...specific challenges for specific vehicles maybe? What is desperately needed for them are multi-player head to head Mario Kart type races, in my opinion. Quote

If you already have the portal, you could be given the option to buy the game standalone. Quote

If you already have the portal, you could be given the option to buy the game standalone. If they did a version for 3DS, it'd need its own toy pad/portal. The 3DS does not have a USB port and as such the existing toy pad could not work with it, at least not without some sort of wireless adapter. Quote

Which is why the New 3DS has the NFC gubbins behind the touch screen for Amiibos. Wouldn't be as portable if you have to take a 4 times the size pad/portal with you... But they could make it so that the LD stuff is readable by the New 3DS in a standalone LD Nintendo exclusive. I'd buy it! Quote

Glad this is (very suspiciously and skeptically) confirmed. I love the shows so I'm happy to see that GA and Supergirl are making it to LD. Hope this means the Flash will be there too... I'd like a Flash/GA Team Pack. Quote
badbob001 Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 You would think they would make it harder to clone the NFC information from these toys-to-life items, which are essentially the razor blades in the razors/razorblades business model (or perhaps more appropriately, the games/gameconsole model). Now that the cats out of the bag, bring out the pc-version please. :) Quote
FrankyCentaur Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 So, check out this thread, again from r/legodimensions- https://www.reddit.com/r/Legodimensions/comments/4c9wm8/supergirl_leak_lego_dimensions_starter_pack/ It looks like the actual Supergirl figure is appearing in Bricks&Pieces when you put in the Starter Pack. There's a lot of info in the thread. It looks like at least Supergirl is going to be included in some kind of upcoming "New Starter Pack." Quote

Yes very interesting, so it looks like for the new starter pack we are going to have Supergirl as one of the characters we'll get for this starter pack. I wonder who the other two will be. Quote
Ashnflash Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) It's true! I just looked! And it does have the cape, torso, legs, head and also the hairpiece is the same as the leaked one! Go here https://wwwsecure.us...entparts/broken and use the item number: 71170 Edited March 28, 2016 by Ashnflash Quote
Koquillion Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 And they are in 71171 but not 71172/3/4. Could be a PS exclusive addition to the existing Starter Pack to boost sales between phases? Quote
