vstat05 Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Is anyone else hoping that Deadshot will be based on his classic outfit, with dual-molded red legs with yellow boots? Not only would it be a cool version of Floyd, but that way another pair of his legs can be repurposed for Flash, since Marvel's Hyperion proves to be worthless seeing as he has gold legs with red printing only on the front. And just because Harley and Batman are guaranteed to be New 52 doesn't mean Deadshot will be as well, just look at classic Deathstroke in 76034.

Neomars Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Bought my cube the second I woke up on Sunday. For it being a special offer this week there doesn't seem to be any at the stores in my state.
BricksrDamian2 Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 I hope we get more DC sets marvel has more!
Robianco Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 I just checked and thankfully the cubes I ordered have been shipped but it does certainly seem to have sold out online at least temporarily... or been withdrawn. I remember last year people were saying there were shelves full of them in-store so I'm sure they'd cater for the store shoppers as well as the online shoppers.

When I tried I got a message saying they didn't ship to the UK!
Robianco Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 (edited) How did you order them? When I tried I got a message saying they didn't ship to the UK! I got them shipped to a friend in Texas who will then ship them to me in the UK. I just paid for them from the site and sent the shipping cost via Paypal. It works out much cheaper than trying to get one in Europe on the after market. Each cube only costs £7 and shipping for both of them is around £8 or so? Edited November 25, 2015 by Robianco

Yeah - the exchange worked out at approx £6.58 when I went on the site – but looking on Ebay now they're about £18 - and that's without postage... I only want the Lightning Lad!
wesker Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 I absolutely adore the new Wonder Woman minifigure. One of the best movie adapted costumes perfectly transformed into Lego form! I shudder to think how much she is going to go for on the aftermarket.
Amazing Bricks Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Not sure if you guys have seen this, but i wish we got this instead of The LexCopter. Mega Armored Lex, it's not accurate to the comics though. But it is so much better than the LexCopter. Too bad we're not going to see this in lego. This is the big villain in the movie.

In case you're mistaken, that is infact, a toy. I'm fine with what we got. I don't want to see another Lex Mech. And the fact that it looks 100% fake. I'd fire anyone who designed that mech and made it into a movie. They need to sell something that kids can use to fight Batman and Superman and not make it look like two Superheroes stealing lunch money.

I know in fact that's a toy, but I was just saying that it would have been nice to get a mech in the expensive Lego set instead of a boring helicopter. Edited November 26, 2015 by amazingbricks
Deathstroke77 Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 I'm really not too bothered about the new BvS sets. The £12 is really cool, especially the Batman fig and Batsignal (hopefully that's a printed brick), but the other 2 are pretty dreary. Minifigure wise the sets in my opinion are weak, especially the £30 set, with just the BvS Batman in it. Would mmuch rather have seen them release a Batmobile with Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman in a £30 set. I wonder what the Summer Wave will bring. Hopefully there'll be more JL sets with some more of the Lantern corps, hoping some Blackest Night stuff will come our way one day. I really wished that they kept the DC SUPERHEROES line, but then added a DC COMICS line which focused more on the comics than movies and the old Animated Series. Superheroes line would be more of a kids thing, the Comics line for the Adults. That way some older stuff can be brought in, as well as newer comics such as the New 52 can be explored. It's a shame the kids don't understand awesome comics like TDKR and Gotham by Gaslight, Red Son would be AMAZING as well. On that note, what 3 figures would you want from such a line? Mine are: - New 52 Talon - Red Son Deathstroke - Knightfall Batman

But yeah, I definitely wish there was more focus on the various DC Comics comic-style properties. *cough cough c'mon Deadshot* I certainly wouldn't pass up a Red Son Batman. Earmuff cowl!

TheBatstan Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Minifigure wise the sets in my opinion are weak, especially the £30 set, with just the BvS Batman in it. The set also has 2 LexCorp thugs, yeah it isn't much but hey it's something.
Aethersprite Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Any idea if Batman in the Harley set has dual molded legs? It's hard to tell from the prelims.
Felkin Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Any idea if Batman in the Harley set has dual molded legs? It's hard to tell from the prelims. So far, we usually only see dual molded legs in the more expensive sets, but in the prelim I've seen, it looks like Batman does have it, although whether that'll be in the final set or not we'll have to wait and see.
BricksrDamian2 Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) We should get more images in December. Edited November 27, 2015 by BricksrDamian2
Numbuh1Nerd Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 I may just be hopeful, but what if that's just the toy-ification of that thing, and with Lego's recent history of spoiling big blockbusters they decided to wait until later or make an exclusive set featuring that?

I can't think of any instance where Lego has released a set based on a movie separately from the other sets released for that movie months later, and I don't see why they'd start for this movie. As far as it being in an exclusive set, I would think we'd have heard about any exclusive sets by now, but then we haven't seen much at all considering how close we are to the release of these sets. Chances are either the robot doesn't appear in the movie at all, it's role was too insignificant for Lego to bother making an official version of it, or Lego just isn't planning on releasing an official version.

Rumor has it this may be done with Captain America Civil War, but I don't see it happening with BvS: DoJ. It seems unlikely, as you said we would've heard about it. And plus, three sets give us all we need. That Robot looks about Minifigure size, so it's probably just a Lex-bot, if it's even in the film.
psqidexslizer248 Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Actually that is whats happening with Civil War. I was not aware of that. Whoops, my mistake.
Bricky Dee Williams Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 I was not aware of that. Whoops, my mistake. It's okay. This may happen more often in the future with the boatload of Marvel and DC films in the next five years.
Khscarymovie4 Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 I I was not aware of that. Whoops, my mistake. I do agree that is unlikely.
