BlockLogo Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 I flipped through the character encyclopedia after it got in. Mostly good, but it has a few odd mistakes, especially on the Batman Begins Batman page. Obviously, the pirate Batman is great. My only nitpick is why he doesn't have dual-molded and printed legs. If a Collectible Minifigure can have both for $4, a figure in a book like this should be able to afford this too. Dual molded legs are still rare in CMFs. Even in superhero sets they pretty much only appear in $50+ sets.
Nsk97 Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Ugh. I love most of the new sets, specially the batcave (even though it's mostly panels). I see all these images and go crazy over them, but I know that in the end I'll just have those sets laying somewhere and feel like I just "wasted" a ton of money. Growing up is effin' up my passion for LEGO. I know exactly what you mean!
BaneShake Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Even in superhero sets they pretty much only appear in $50+ sets. Deathstroke and BvS Batman both had dual legs in $30 sets. Point being I'm just a picky perfectionist about it. :D
TheBrickHitHouse Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Summer wave must be out in the next 4 weeks, mid May is usually release time as I recall?
Deathstroke77 Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 I think May in Europe, August in the US? I had 76034 by mid-May, but I think its official release is June. I got 76034 from Amazon.
CM4Sci Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 30606 is Nightwing in case people weren't sure, 30606 is listed as Nightwing.
Deathstroke77 Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 30606 is Nightwing in case people weren't sure, 30606 is listed as Nightwing. Is this the NIghtwing in upcoming Gotham Unleashed feature film?
CM4Sci Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Is this the NIghtwing in upcoming Gotham Unleashed feature film? Yeah.
BlockLogo Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 I had 76034 by mid-May, but I think its official release is June. I got 76034 from Amazon. Last year Jokerland was available in May/June in Europe and in August in the US.
Deathstroke77 Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Looks like this will be the reverse of the winter wave, wheere we had Europe get the sets 2 months later. Looks like Summer will have the U.S get the sets 2 months later.
AnnaBuildsLego Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 How much is the 'Gotham Unleashed' DVD expected to cost? I'm interested for the Nightwing minifigure only, so I'm wondering if I should buy it or not.
The Lego Nolan Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 How much is the 'Gotham Unleashed' DVD expected to cost? I'm interested for the Nightwing minifigure only, so I'm wondering if I should buy it or not. Cosmic Clash DVD cost me 8, so expect around that.
BlockLogo Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 (edited) Those movies start out at like $15 for the DVD and $20 for the BR, but they usually go on sale from the release date. I bought the last one at target when it came out for $13 (bluray). And I got some of the previous ones on Black Friday for $4 a piece (DVD). Or it might have been $6. But dirt cheap anyways.

legosamsonite Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Just got clash of heroes and kryptonite interception! What is everyones opinions on these sets?
Captain Britain Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Just got clash of heroes and kryptonite interception! What is everyones opinions on these sets? I never got the Kryptonite Interception set itself as I had Batman and the henchmen from another set and Bricklink. I thought the Clash of Heroes set was brilliant though. Really cheap and comes with the two big heroes. Nice little 'stage' if you will to display them on too :). I will have to pick up the batmobile separately though as it does look cool! Just didn't work out at the time as I got the two henchmen for £10 and needed to allocate my money on other bits.
Im a brickmaster. Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 (edited) Just got clash of heroes and kryptonite interception! What is everyones opinions on these sets? I think both are a must by especially if like TDKR, they serve as an easy way to get most of the key elements of the film ( ) Not to mention it's a just pretty good looking Batmobile!

BaneShake Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Just got clash of heroes and kryptonite interception! What is everyones opinions on these sets? Both good sets! Clash has great figures, and the build is decent fun with the play features, but I doubt it'll remain together for too long. Interception also has pretty great figures, as well as what is one of my favorite Batmobile builds. The forklift is a decent touch too. If you haven't gotten the BvS Batwing, it's worth it too; it has the best selection of figures and the build is awesome. Even Lex's goofy little copter has charm to it. Wonder Woman is a must have.
legosamsonite Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Thanks all. Opening them tonight. More pumped now!
Deathstroke77 Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 I think both are a must by especially if like TDKR, they serve as an easy way to get most of the key elements of the film ( ) Not to mention it's a just pretty good looking Batmobile! With the Bat-tank from 76055 coming in June, you may be able to re-create the BvS scene from TDKR.
Numbuh1Nerd Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 I'm in love with that Batmobile, honestly. Sometimes the cockpit's a little hard to open without tearing it apart, but otherwise it's so neat!
Minecraft Architect Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 How much is the 'Gotham Unleashed' DVD expected to cost? I'm interested for the Nightwing minifigure only, so I'm wondering if I should buy it or not. Anyone know when the film is coming out? I don't want to miss out on Nightwing.
Legocity2713 Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Anyone know when the film is coming out? I don't want to miss out on Nightwing. Follow this forum and the Brickfan or some other Lego sites and I'm sure you'll be fine. :)
retrotaco Posted April 10, 2016 Posted April 10, 2016 For anyone interested in the pricing of the Gotham DVD - I have a few Walmarts around me that ALL got TONS of Cosmic Clash DVDs, sure it's only a matter of time before they get discounted heavy like the older DVDS. I imagine Gotham/Nightwing will be the same.
Numbuh1Nerd Posted April 10, 2016 Posted April 10, 2016 I always hold out for those DVDs to get discounted, but by the time they get cheap enough they stop packaging the minifigure with them :( The only one I've managed to get so far because of that is Trickster.
