psqidexslizer248 Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Has anyone seen this? is it custom or could this be the real thing? Assuming this is the real one: https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5707/21538351402_f730a37920_b.jpg, I'd have to say that one is a custom (a very good one at that). The face is different and the boots should be partly visible on the Cover 66 one.
Captain Nemo Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Seems fake to me. It's just a photo-edited version of his other Batman image (that does use an official figure). That being said, I think it's a good indication of what the figure will look like officially. I just hope we don't end up with a Batman whose skin looks like an orange!
8BrickMario Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 It's probably custom, but I expect that to be exactly what we get in the set. I'm still disappointed by the cowl, but I won't be buying the set for the Batman minifigure, anyway.
CM4Sci Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Fake - can't you see the sticker outlines? Nice custom though. Edited October 29, 2015 by CM4Sci
Robianco Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 I actually think it's more photoshop work over stickers but there's a shadow around the bat symbol and the belt that's just too uniform to be anything other than a photoshop retouch. The shadow shouldn't even be there. Besides that it's quite nicely done though.
Moon_Knight Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) I'm kinda annoyed at LEGO in their way of dealing with the Justice League (Beyond Batman and Superman). The only year we've seen sets primarily based on the Justice League is this year. And that was 6 sets (inc. 6862 from 2012) out of the what, 25? 30? Now don't get me wrong, Batman is my favourite DC character, so the more Batman the merrier, but I wish there was better handling of the rest of the Justice League. I think the primary reason of why we haven't seen many Justice League sets on the shelves is because DC/Warner is just barely getting its cinematic universe started. I am aware that the DC animated movie universe is there. Some of the Justice League sets even show similarities to animated movies such as Darkseid Invasion and Justice League War. But I don't think we'll see much until movies like Batman v Superman, Shazam, Flash, JLA, etc. come to theaters. The Marvel theme has several sets because: 1. Marvel's as popular as ever right now because of its movies. 2. As we know, LEGO and Disney share a close partnership. I do agree with everyone though. Simply put, Batman sells better. He sells because of his legacy and he's been the only superhero with successful ongoing movies. He died for a little while back in Joel Schumacher's reign and was reborn with Christopher Nolan. I really think all we have to do is give it time. DC has a great variety of superheroes with amazing stories that are waiting to be told in cinema. It should be interesting to see how far LEGO goes with the sets it creates for the DCCU. I know we're getting a Suicide Squad-ish set but Suicide Squad is definitely not going to be a family friendly movie. DC's Vertigo titles will most likely not get any sets either. It should be interesting to see what happens in the future. It's an exciting time to be a DC Comics and LEGO fan. I'm very excited for the Batman v Superman (or I like to call them Dark Knight Returns) sets and I can only imagine how awesome the Batman '66 batcave is going to be.

Amazing Bricks Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Justice league sets weren't planned to come out this year, BvS sets were. Just imagine if the BvS movie didn't get pushed back. We wouldn't have gotten any justice league sets for a long time. That's not to say that we're never getting any more justice league sets, but like everyone's said Batman sells. Marvel sets balances out its movies/shows/comic sets. I think DC will do the same. Batman is the DC's Spiderman. Batman has had a lot of sets based on him. Yet we were lucky to get justice league sets. I'd say just be thankful we got a justice league wave this year. There's more to come that's for sure.
Padawan Waax Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Hello Guy, The picture you shared is actually my work =D In fact, I did a picture for a building challenge on Re-brick, and I did a variant with a 66' suit. It's only photoshop ! ^^ So, I can think it's a good work =D I share you a link to my website, you can see all the photo in there. https://padawancity.wordpress.com/2015/10/26/concours-re-brick/ Sorry for my bad English =)
Sebiron Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Hello Guy, Sorry for my bad English =) Coucou and welcome.
derzy09 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I can confirm that the batman figs are REAL! The wings are even stamped 2016 lego :)
psqidexslizer248 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I can confirm that the batman figs are REAL! The wings are even stamped 2016 lego :) Do you mind if I ask how you know? Also, do you know what set they come in?
derzy09 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Do you mind if I ask how you know? Also, do you know what set they come in? I have them in hand and they are 100% real.don't know what set.
8BrickMario Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 The Batman figure must be in the Cycle Chase, unless he's in a promo/exclusive set. Interesting to know he's real. It's not a good print.
derzy09 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) Also have this one... Edited October 31, 2015 by derzy09
8BrickMario Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 That one looks even less real. Why is his chin uncovered? I'm hoping these aren't final.
psqidexslizer248 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) Also have this one... This one looks fake to me, the toros is just the 2006 one with dark blue hands and face is printed on a flesh head instead of a dark blue one. Edit: Also, did Lego print "Lego 2016" on the wings for Hawkman or Space Batman? The Batman figure must be in the Cycle Chase, unless he's in a promo/exclusive set. Interesting to know he's real. It's not a good print. Or there are some sets latter in the summer. Edited October 31, 2015 by psqidexslizer248
derzy09 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 same helmet as space batman but in new colour!
Falconfan1414 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) Lego did print 2015 for the batman and hawk man. Could the second one be the one from the batcave? Also are those the only 2016 mini figs u have? Edited October 31, 2015 by Falconfan1414

Zilcho Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 It looks a lot like the Hellbat suit, awesome!
vstat05 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) If these are really going to be released by LEGO, than the black an red one is lazy. They just took the old Alex Ross styled torso from 2007 and recolored its symbol red and belt silver, instead of releasing an actual Batman Beyond minifigure. And that dark blue one is not just the 2006 one, it has scuba Batman's belt in yellow, at least. Edited October 31, 2015 by Raptor of Vengeance
Captain Nemo Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I'll still hold out that they are fake. Because they look awful, custom or not.
derzy09 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I'll still hold out that they are fake. Because they look awful, custom or not. lol since when does the lego factory make fakes??
adotnamedstud Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 The wings are too sharp, a safety hazard. The color isn't filled in. I'm pretty sure it's fake. It's blatantly obvious and everyone thinks that they're real. Which is sad. I thought we were smarter than this.
