psqidexslizer248 Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 $52, eh? You're starting to sound like the CW! :laugh:
eldiano Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Meh, went to TRU to browse the lego sets I already have. Saw that they have a promo, but any Lego over 30$usd receive batmobile. So got the green lantern set and a speed set, went up to the register and sucked up to the cashier, long story short, I ditched the 30 dollars worth of Lego and bought four BvS Batmobile polybags! They played their cards real good!!!
wesleydoogan Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 I'll be picking mine up during the Freeze event next month. £50 on DC stuff here, and luckily the set is £55 here. It is actually any purchase over £50 in the UK. just checked.
Deathstroke77 Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 It is actually any purchase over £50 in the UK. just checked. Eh. Not what the store calendar I looked at in the LEGO Store at the weekend stated. Either way, the set qualifies for the poly, and therefore I'll buy it.Also, I'm looking for advice. I'm unsure on what to do. Currently, I'm putting any money I can aside for the Batcave. However, I REALLY want the two summer sets coming out. What should I do? Should I keep saving for the Batcave or save up for the Summer Sets and get both of those? I just felt how heavy the box was this weekend and just wanted to crack it open and build it, but I dunno if I can take waiting for the two Summer sets, especially the Croc set.

I just felt how heavy the box was this weekend and just wanted to crack it open and build it, but I dunno if I can take waiting for the two Summer sets, especially the Croc set. I thought that too. They popped a calender/catalogue thing whatever it is in my bag when I was there the other weekend and I thought it said free with any purchase over £50 on DC sets. I've already got the Batwing though and will be picking up the Batcave this weekend with the double points thing so I'll have to get the Cycle Chase and 3 DC Mighty Micros... Which still leaves me £3 short aghhhhhhh... maybe I can add a DC keyring or something to the order to tip it over.. hopefully they count? Difficult choice on the sets saving front. It all depends on which one would make you the happiest I guess? Maybe save for the Batcave and see if you can get the Croc set for a birthday present or something? Or pick the croc set up and then get birthday money to put into the Batcave fund. Personally I love the Batcave and with that being out now and me having time to put aside for the summer sets I'm going down that route but I know other peoples circumstances might be different. I've had to have a clear out of old stuff and a bit of an eBay session to get the funds together in time though!

My birthday is at the end of May, slap bang in the middle between the Christmases. I'll definitely be gaining money throughout the Easter and birthday periods, but I'm really stuck as to whether I should spend my money on the summer sets or keep going for the Batcave.
BatZack Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 My biggest issue is the fact that here in Australia the Batcave is $400. Now that is a lot of money. If I get that how will I save up for the other sets I'm still wanting...such as Harley's motorcycle chase thing, the biggest bvs set, plus the summer sets. It's hard being a nerd in the period of Batman v Superman

It's hard being a nerd in the period of Batman v Superman I feel your pain. Not a good year for Batman nerds who don't want their wallets to take a beating.
Captain Britain Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 It is actually any purchase over £50 in the UK. just checked. Just to re-clarify it is £50 on DC only as we thought/already know, not any purchase over £50..
Coca-Cola Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 I just saw Batman V Superman early and without spoiling anything they need to make more sets. So many missed opportunities..

Coca-Cola Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 How'd you manage that one? I'm a very lucky man to married to someone with connections to Warner and got a free screening! Movie was great, I was just pointing out in like close to every scene "That should be a set. No that should. Ooh and that too."

Numbuh1Nerd Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Have they ever done two whole waves of movie sets for the same movie in a year? Doesn't Star Wars do that a lot?
MaasEffekt Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) What do you people think about the upcoming Killer Croc big fig? I would have been happier if it takes after more of the Lego Batman 3 game version. I wish these big figs were a little bit more detailed! Edited March 17, 2016 by Lazer

Agreed, but I still want this "Killer Croc Sewer" set more than any of the "Yawn", sorry "Dawn of Justice" sets!....I`ve set out to buy some DC stuff and then passed ,hoping I`ll see them discounted later on ,when the next wave starts.

Agreed I'd have preferred the game version but I'm happy enough with what we're getting.

He's definitely not a variant I would've gone with, but he'll do.

He actually may become my favorite bigfig when I have him in hand. Sorry, Grodd!!!
MaasEffekt Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) He actually may become my favorite bigfig when I have him in hand. Sorry, Grodd!!! I am planning to get the set with Grodd before Easter. I also need Captain Cold, The Flash, and could use that variant of Wonder Woman too. I like the Darkseid big fig, but Grodd looks like one of the better ones too. Although i am manly collecting DC figs (from the Superheroes line), i was still thinking about getting a Thanos big fig, but i was very disappointed with its looks, so passed.

Zergos Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 I'm not a huge fan of killer croc to be honest. He reminds me of abomination from marvel :S. I'll still pickup that set for the other great figs like Captain Boomerang :wub: , Red Hood, and Katana

I'll still pickup that set for the other great figs like Captain Boomerang :wub: , Red Hood, and Katana I'm probably going to modify him to make him abombination as I prefer my custom croc over the official.

BaneShake Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 I am absolutely dying for some Ra's Al Ghul news. Does anyone know how previous store exclusives were revealed? Were there just pictures released at an arbitrary point in time, or did they show off sets somewhere?
