8BrickMario Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 He's based on Batman: The Animated Series. So there's that. In fact, I'll be totally boring and say that I'm most excited for Scarecrow! Maybe it was my prediction, or maybe I care more about the character, but I can't wait for him.
rome00150 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 The new hat, the tan hands, and supposedly new prints on the torso, face and possibly legs. Also, he might have different colored torso or legs, but I'm not sure. He's based on Batman: The Animated Series. So there's that.

Mr_KnowItAll_JD23 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Is there a specific reason why Captain Boomerang's boomerangs are blue?
psqidexslizer248 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Is there a specific reason why Captain Boomerang's boomerangs are blue? He's had blue boomerangs from time to time. Silver would have been much better though imo.
Mr_KnowItAll_JD23 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) He's had blue boomerangs from time to time. Silver would have been much better though imo. Thanks. Yeah I would've liked silver ones better. Edited January 27, 2016 by Mr_KnowItAll_JD23

Also, he might have different colored torso or legs, but I'm not sure. well for me personally I will be getting this Scarecrow set over the BVS batwing set. since they are both going to be in the same price range i hear $50 or 60 bucks but The Batwing set is i think $60 dollars at Walmart. so I am going to choose the set that has new minifigures instead of a set that has same characters just new designs aka Batwing set BVS.but as I said Scarecrow set > BVS Batwing set in my opinion anyone else agree?
zipper778 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 but as I said Scarecrow set > BVS Batwing set in my opinion anyone else agree? I completely agree. It's refreshing to finally get some new characters in the Batman sets. For me personally, I'm only interested in Batman and Batman characters so the more rogues that we get from his gallery the better.
JaseTJ Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) I disagree >_> The Batwing is an awesome build, I used Supes' boots for Spidey (ala my avatar), and the new Wonder Woman was greatly appreciated over the one from The Lex Mech set. Plus new civvy clothes and another new female face from Lois. Edited January 27, 2016 by JaseTJ
Zergos Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I just noticed this, but both Katana and blue beetle have dual colored legs, grey and red for katana, and black/blue for beetle. Great to see it being more common in sets!!!
strangely Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Honestly, these sets don't do much for me. More bat vehicles disappoints me. I mean they're well designed, but I have no use or interest in them. Croc's vehicle looks unfinished. Scarecrow's vehicle is good. I really like the tractor though. I like all the minifigures, but admittedly this feels like a small line-up. Adding more Suicide Squad members is welcome and appreciated. BTAS variation of Scarecrow is awesome. I don't know, it just feels like we're missing something big. Maybe it's the lack of Raven.
Jayoheazy Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Am I the only one completely underwhelmed by these sets :( I really want Red Hood but can't see plunking down $70 for those vehicles. Maybe Jang will do a review to make them look pretty and convince me to buy them
Actor Builder Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I actually quite like these sets. I'm not a DC fan really, but I do enjoy the Batman villains. Batman himself, not so much. But the villains I like. I think the minifigures look great. But that's probably because I don't keep up with the comics or films, but just know the characters. Giant Crocodile-Man, check. Guy with boomerangs, check. Man wearing Red Ski Mask, check. Living Scarecrow, check. Flying unidentifiable bad-guys, check. For someone who just likes the villains, but has no schema for how they "Should" look, these sets are awesome.
Brickweiser Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 With the exception of Batman (of course), all those figures will be completely new additions to my collection, as I dont have any previous incarnations of Killer Croc or Scarecrow. Its not a serious gripe, and a Im sure Killer Croc will look splendid, but all bigfigs seem to be in hulk-smash mode. Certainly doesnt fit the profile of all large characters, particularly Darkseid. Red Hood and Blue Beetle! Two off the list! Does anyone know if the "Anti-Gas Batman" is a new design?
Neomars Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Why do you guys hate Killer Croc's vehicle so much? Isn't it obvious he's riding the TACODILE http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/cloudywithachanceofmeatballs/images/e/e3/TacodileSupreme.png/revision/latest?cb=20130930044135 Yeah no its a bit "eegh" but I really love that Bat-Tank and it's probably my favorite Bat-vehical ever just hopefully its the last one we get because I think it's long past time we moved on from Batman. I actually do like the helicopter hating helicopters. It's big and the blue makes it stand out. But I gotta say that Blue Beetle is just darn perfect. I can't believe LEGO is actually making him. He's my favorite DC character growing up so close to his hometown El Paso and him being a hispanic hero is so relateble and awesome.
Hero Bricks Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I personally think that Lego's choice of villains in this spring and summers sets are because of the Suicide Squad movie that is coming out. They can't make sets based off the film because it is darker for kids but these minifigs / big fig have features that resemble a mix of their comic look and movie look. Just my opinion, these sets don't look too great but are more for just the minifigs.
wesker Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Unlike Marvel's sets I don't think these new DC ones excite me that much. I guess Scarecrow's harvester isn't bad but the rest feels like more of the same. The minifigures are definitely the highlights here. Its great to finally have Killer Croc updated after so long.
Robert8 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Thank God I don't like Superheroes stuff. Otherwise I'd be ruined by the end of this year. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your wallets, guys This wave looks very solid. Especially, that Scarecrow set
DarthBrickus Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Phew, i'm gonna wait for a hefty discount on these. That Killer Croc-Vehicle looks like a Chima-Dropout, and not in a good way.
namioik Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Phew, i'm gonna wait for a hefty discount on these. That Killer Croc-Vehicle looks like a Chima-Dropout, and not in a good way. Took the words straight out of my mouth. I also think the bat tank looks like something ninjago would create..
Krulis Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Photos of Juniors set are on promobricks. Love light blue Batman and new armoured Luthor and his tank/mech looks suprisingly great for Juniors set.
Captain Britain Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 All the figs look brilliant! Can't wait to get them all. I agree with what people are saying about the vehicles though.. the tractor is probably my favourite! I think I'll get the sets and then sell on all the vehicles.
dario2739 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Phew, i'm gonna wait for a hefty discount on these. That Killer Croc-Vehicle looks like a Chima-Dropout, and not in a good way. i agree on the vehicles - but let's face it, we will all be buying these sets for the minifigures! They all look great, the one thing I would change though is Capt. Boomerang's boomerangs - they should be silver, not blue.
Nsk97 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 or she's Batmans insider (or outsider) and volunteered to keep tabs on Waller Haha I see what you did there, that would be interesting.
