Forresto Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Dr Who is pretty big in the US but not like Walking Dead. However these ridiculously long breaks between seasons doesn't help to bring it into the mainstream focus. I think if your into nerdy stuff in the US, then you have almost certainly watch Dr Who or at least know what it is. The problem here is that you need cable to get BBC America so it's really a show you can't necessarily watch easily if you're poor here. Fortunately my family made enough to have cable so going back to the last season of Tennant I could watch it but I also used to invite all my friends over whose families couldn't afford it, so they could be able to watch and keep up with new episodes. Accessibility and frequency are certainly a problem. However Dimensions seems to be applying lots of odd brands like Ghostbusters and Back to the Future. I wonder if we'll ever see a TRON pack? That'd be cool and fit nicely into the concept of the game. Quote

FrankyCentaur Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 It had been on Netflix too but they've removed it. It's on Amazon Prime Video thing right now. I watched most of it on Netflix and was super annoyed that it got taken off. Didn't renew Netflix account. It's pretty big here, I see it (to a small degree) at anime conventions in terms of cosplay and merchandise/fan merch, and it's all over regular comic conventions. Quote

Really? That's a weird thing to do just take it off Netflix just wow man wow. Quote
pittpenguin123 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Really? That's a weird thing to do just take it off Netflix just wow man wow. They took off M*A*S*H* too. No way to watch it now unless i buy a 80 buck box set Quote
Starscream759 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 They took off M*A*S*H* too. No way to watch it now unless i buy a 80 buck box set Madness, absolute madness. I'll never know why things like this happen. Quote
Koquillion Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Madness, absolute madness. I'll never know why things like this happen. Because Netflix have to pay and TV show makers sell the rights for limited periods. Netflix either didn't renew for economic reasons or weren't given the chance, because rights were sold to rivals.

Dimensionsfan Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Pictures of supergirl: http://imgur.com/a/tGZEC Packaging is little bit bigger than green arrow one. Quote
eliktroniq Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 if there's no logo's for conventions on them, I highly doubt they'll be exclusive to e3/sdcc. seems more likely to me that they'll either be lego store/toys r us/ect promos or something. Quote
Starscream759 Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Interesting, I get the feeling we'll get those packs later in the year. Quote
Local Knowledge Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) I've seen a picture of Strax in the TARDIS! What could this mean? Edited June 1, 2016 by Local Knowledge Quote
FrankyCentaur Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I've seen a picture of Strax in the TARDIS! What could this mean? Don't mess me with, little girl. That would be SO cool. Can I see? Quote

Local Knowledge Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I know, I was just kidding. As it appears it looks like he's gonna playable, just like Supergirl and Green Arrow. Quote
Starscream759 Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I know, I was just kidding. As it appears it looks like he's gonna playable, just like Supergirl and Green Arrow. What exactly would Strax DO anyway? Quote
Local Knowledge Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 What exactly would Strax DO anyway? I dunno, maybe he could have a blaster? Quote
eliktroniq Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) I don't know all that much about how the lego games work internally, but isn't it possible that the NPCs in the game have data similar to the playable characters, and this is a result of making the game load that data as if it were a playable character's data?

HawkLord Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I've seen a picture of Strax in the TARDIS! What could this mean? This is how rumors and multiple pages of guesses and wishlists start... Without any confirmation this is nothing more than a mod of a game. It's no different than adding lightsabers to Skyrim. Quote
The Lego Nolan Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I know, I was just kidding. As it appears it looks like he's gonna playable, just like Supergirl and Green Arrow. If I'm not wrong there was a 3rd pack with GA and SG. Quote
FrankyCentaur Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I'd be so sad if he was just an exclusive figure. Now I know how the Supergirl/Green Arrow fans feel. Quote
Ashnflash Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 You can actually see his suit beneath the lock.... Uh-oh Quote
