Borex Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Those figures look sweet. I want the Blue Beetle and Killer Moth.
Deathstroke77 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I only consider her an anti-hero after watching Arrow. Anyway, back on topic, is anyone else just a little iffy about that Croc vehicle? I'm guessing the jaws go up and down, but that's it really. And Batman has arrived in a friggin tank (which looks amazing). I'm just really not keen on it, I wish they'd have made it a playset kind of thing, liek the Dynamic Duo set from 2012, riddled with play features, and perhaps a small vehicle like in 2006 for Croc and using Red Hood's bike. That would be much better. Also, they said that they aren't showing any exclusive sets, which could still leave the door open for a store exclusive... Just saying. Wait, have we got a pic of Anti-Gas Batman anywhere? I didn't seem him in the pics.
TheJoker Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I didn't count him either. Awesome I didn't get him i just bought the movie without Batzarro because to me personally i just want Superman's Bizarro.

All you can really tell from the pictures is that he has the breather thing that Captain America had. Edited January 26, 2016 by psqidexslizer248
8BrickMario Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Interesting. Scarecrow's harvester looks good, and I like the inclusion of gas bombs and a prison pod. I never thought of using the nougat color for his straw hair, but it looks great! Moth, on the other hand...what's up with his helmet? Very odd. It seems like they tried to modernize him, but it failed. The Bat-copter is very interesting, more like the TDKR Bat vehicle. Tractor and Beetle look okay. Croc's set...Didn't think the Bat-Tank would be so huge. Croc's vehicle is odd, sorta bear-trappy, which I like, but the Boomerang chariot thing makes no sense. Katana...I wanted new hair, but I guess it's fine. Croc himself is interesting, and I'm not sure what I think about him. Edited January 26, 2016 by 8BrickMario

zipper778 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I haven't seen anti-gas Batman either. Croc looks okay, but I'm a little underwhelmed. It's almost as if he could pass for Doomsday from the new BvS movie. Not a big fan of his vehicle either. I would have much preferred a sewer playset over that. Everything else looks amazing though. I already own the original Battank and I have two Batcopters, but I LOVE the new tank and the new Batcopter looks good. I will absolutely pick up these two sets despite my criticisms.
Numbuh1Nerd Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Killer Moth's new helmet looks really nice! Better than the one from the games, even. Blue Beetle is just as great as I could hope. Hopefully we'll see better pictures of Scarecrow, Fear Gas Batman, and Red Hood soon. This is gonna be an expensive year!
Deathstroke77 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Ugh, I can't see any of Bats for the life of me. And that Scarecrow is definitely his Animated Series design, that nougat hair really just seals that for me. I hope NYTF doesn't take too long to roll around, I'd like some good looks at the figures.
SoupOrFishOil Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I don't like that Batcopter. Croc's vehicle looks like it was rejected from Chima, too. Boomerang's platform is ridiculous. However, what was can see of the figures is great. Blue Beetle excites me, and I am glad to see that Killer Moth's helmet looks like the comics and not the video games (the missing beak has bugged me for some time). Scarecrow's harvester looks good, and the Bat-tank is okay. The Croc set might depend on the price for me, but Scarecrow is a sure buy.
Nsk97 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Moth, on the other hand...what's up with his helmet? Very odd. It seems like they tried to modernize him, but it failed. I quite like his helmet it's quite close to one he wore a lot in the comics in the 90s.
8BrickMario Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Croc's vehicle is the only SH one I'm considering not keeping. He simply doesn't need one and it looks ridiculous. I might manage to make something of Boomerang's part of it, though. Scarecrow's harvester is just great, though. Threatening? Check. Thematically appropriate? Check. Just plain cool? Definitely. And from what I can see, this new Scarecrow looks great, too. And for heroes vs. villains? I'll categorize Katana and Red Hood as heroes (RH will be placed with the Bat-family), and I've already categorized Batzarro and Deathstroke as villains. Basically, I follow the sets' idea of who's good and who's the bad guy. Edited January 26, 2016 by 8BrickMario

Ashnflash Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I'm really disappointed... I think I hyped them up too much....

We should get more pictures from the Zusammengebaut guy if he manages to solve his technical issues. He claims that he has a lot of pictures in high quality so with a bit of luck we might still get a closer look at the figures.

Basically, I follow the sets' idea of who's good and who's the bad guy. I probably won't get the Batwing set because I will probably get these two sets Killer Croc and Scarecrow. I really just want the Superman with boots from that set because well we don't have a new 52 superman yet. WW is alright and same for Lex Luthor. Lois looks ok. but really i collect more comic sets but if some characters like commissioner gordon or Lois Lane or even General Zod i will buy those movie sets because they are not in comic sets
Bricky Dee Williams Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Croc's vehicle looks like it was rejected from Chima, too. Haha, it does! Wow, the more I look at it the more I see it as evil Joker wind-up dentures of doom.
Deathstroke77 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Might just go for the Classic Batcave before picking up anything else. Will require a lot of saving however, but after seeing both sets I can't say I'm amazingly excited for either of them like I was last year. Haha, it does! Wow, the more I look at it the more I see it as evil Joker wind-up dentures of doom. Yep that thing definitely looks Chima-esque, just in green. And true about the Joker denture thing, but let's not give LEGO too many ideas for 2017...
Zergos Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) These look pretty cool, though I'm not a fan of the killer croc bigfig :S. Captain Boomerang is probably my favorite of all the new characters we are getting. Will buy these as soon as I see them in stores :) Edited January 26, 2016 by Zergos
8BrickMario Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 So, Fear Harvest looks to be about $50-$60 in price, which is pretty good.
CM4Sci Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 The new Marvel sets have a neat ring piece I could see being used for Green Lantern.
Ultron Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Ooo! These new figs are really nice! Not liking Killer Croc or his vehicle though. Everything else is great though.
BluePulse Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I just figured out how the cap'n boomerang build works; you put one of the boomerang pieces in the horizontal clip then push on the clip to shoot it. I wonder how accurate and precise that will shoot. It would be awesome if it spun and arced in the right way. I know it's simplistic and obvious but I really like it. Thoughts on the sets: Crocs vehicle is not what I was expecting but I like it whereas batmans tank looks too much like a ninjago vehicle. Wish it was more like dark knight returns. Croc looks more like abomination But I like him plus with the figs I'll definitely be getting this one. I'll hVe to brick link blue beetle since I can't possibly spare any coin for the harvester set but BLuebeetle is my favourite DC character. I might colour his wings blue though since it looks a little strange as trans grey.
Ceroknight Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 The Scarecrow set looks pretty cool, kinda disappointed with both though.
Super Goblin Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Anyone mind posting the pics here I can't access Facebook, thanks
