iamded Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 are there any news/pics of the other 2 sets? I think if there was we would have heard by now. But believe me, I want to know as much as you. :-$ ~Peace Quote

Numbuh23 Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 After Watching Batman & Robin, I Noticed That The Mr.Freeze Set Could Come With- Batman, Robin, Bane, Poison Ivy, and Mr. Freeze With the "Bat Buggy" As An Additional Bonus ;-) Quote
sam89 Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 I just stumbled over these pics whilst searching for Toy Fair pics X-D They're from this site. Quote
CF Mitch Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Ooh, thanks very much sam89 I love that little batbuggy, with Mr. Freeze *wub* Sure, the vehicles are crap, but that's just like the SW Battle Packs :-P I'm buying that one for sure. Also nice to see the official HQ fig *sweet* I think she looks quite nice :-) The size of the Penguin & Robin sets is still too big for me, since I just want the Robin-fig :-/ Ah well, thanks anyway *y* ;-) Quote
???theriddler??? Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Thank you!!!! But the buggy, and the hamer are weird!!! Quote
Green Ghost Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 I just stumbled over these pics whilst searching for Toy Fair pics X-D They're from this site. Thanks for the link sam! Beside the Harley Truck, I don't like them that much! :-/ The Penguin one is just a different Version from the Batcave set and the Freeze Set looks very lousy (but is this a new Batman?)! Hope that are the last vehicles and that they do buildings next time... And I would love to see a set with Poison Ivy! Also Nightwing would be cool, because he only was in the Arkham set too. But can't wait for Harley *sweet* Quote
Deinonychus Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Outstanding! *wub* I absolutely love Harley and her monster truck...that's so madcap it is an automatic win! I'm also very pleased with the piece counts...that'll keep the price points low and buyers will be more inclined to get these. It's especially nice for the Minifigs that were only previously available in big expensive playsets. Now if LEGO would just give us Clayface, Ras Al Ghul, and Hush we'd be all set Quote
Vader Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 I just stumbled over these pics whilst searching for Toy Fair pics X-D They're from this site. Hmmm interesting sets we have here, well the buggy is ok but it just seems like a cheap way to get the freeze fig. Not bad if you need one, if you don't then it's a pointless set. Not a fan of the sub set at all, i'll have to see better pics before i condem it any more. Tumbler looks ok but not as good as i hoped, i'm also alittle unsure on it's size. The thing just looks huge up to the van. Now then on to the good, i love the batcycle set. Sure the batcycle itself looks basic but the harley truck and fig sure makes up for it *wub* Goota love that giant hammer of hers X-D The thing that really upsets me is the lack of a new batman fig, i mean come on lego if your gonna try and tie into TDK then at least give us a new bat fig. Failing that at least give us a black torso one like the first batmobile had :'-( Thanks for the pics sam *y* Quote
Athos Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Think we could edit these pictures into the first post? I almost missed them again. Is that a new barrel piece in the HQ set? Or is it the old large barrel in new brown? Or is it a bunch of 4x4 round bricks stuck together? I'm hoping for the second option, but think its probably the third. Steve Quote

Mr Spielbrick Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Can I just say "unimaginative" as a comment on the whole new wave? Seriously, the Tumbler has the exact same minifig lineup as Joker's Escape from last year. Unimaginative! The vehicles Batsy and Freeze drive in that tiny set? Unimaginative! (Not to mention bad looking...) The apparent lack of a new Batsuit? Unimaginative! (I'll drop this last one if it turns out the dark grey blur in the Freeze set IS a new Batsuit after all.) The only good set I see so far (keeping in mind 'PRELIMINARY' is splashed all over these pics) is the one with Harley. And even that one doesn't make me go gaga. Quote
iamded Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 I honestly never expected to see Batman driving a go-cart chasing Mr Freeze in a baggage cart. But, it's a cheap way to get 2 sweet minifigs. :-D And that giant hammer! :'-) Well, I am a fan of giant hammers, but I'm gonna have to pass on this, seeing the Castle battlepacks and what-not... :'-( ~Peace Quote
Batbrick Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 We'll, first, thanks Sam89 for finding these pics. Secondly, it preliminary still people, no doubt we'll get a new batsuit, since the boxart clearly shows the cartoon batman in a BB suit. Now onto the sets: Batbuggy: Much smaller than I though, I actually really like the Batbuggy :-$ Like a small quad, it'll definitely join the vehicles in the batcave. I may get two, this set looks to be cheap. The Mr.Freeze vehicle is disappointing, but atleast has nice pieces on it. And do I spy a dark grey batsuit on this box? Overall this one is a win for me, better than the dragster set from 06. Robin Sub: I've come to like this one. Its great to have another Robinj vehicle and I just love the one he gets. We also get two more mini penguins. Penguin's sub I like, even if it is another sub it does look nice, plus I'll be happy to get another Robin and Penguin, great figs. Batcycle: WOW! Loving this set. The Batcycle looks good, and I'm sure will look better in person or better pics. Seems they are doing the Batpod, which I like. Harley's truck I love though, its crazy, wild and plain her. Her comically large hammer is great too, but the real prize is the fig. She looks fantastic, I can't wait to add her to the collection. Overall this set is a great one to me. Tumbler: I'll state once again I love this tumbler. All the Tumblers on brickshelf look great yes, but don't actually have the proper scale, windows, or weapon mode (you know the little window at the front) like this one does. I'll certainly get this, the Ice Cream truck is fantastic, and after a few mods so will be the Tumbler. Overall, I like Batman 08, but like everyone else is a little disappointed. Wave 1 and tiny Wave 2 were both superb in design and figs, I think this is just a small letdown, hopefully a wave 4 is granted and it picks back up again. I think it is just a small dip in what will hopefully continue as a great series. Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote
xwingyoda Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Wow Tks Sam, new pics yeay !!!! Really I like these sets BUT I am so pissed at the MFs !! Apart that sweet Harley, there are no new bloody figs, same figs as in wave 1 !! At least they could have modded the torsos |-/ Sionce these are preliminary there is hope !! Batbuggy: so tiny and cute !! Reminds me of a video game Mario Cart :-P Go Batman Cart, shoot a Banana peal at that freezed dud. Very nice little 10$ set Something weird about thje bat, I can't put my finger on it ;-) And it seems that Mr Freeze has a new backpack Robin Sub: way beter vehicles than in the batcave IMO, smoother lines. Great to have mini pinguins again (they are sooo cute !!) I wonder what part is the torpedo made from: maybe a new part ? Batcycle: the piece de resistance for me 8- Quote
Batbrick Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 See, Wise *yoda* has got it right, these sets are good. Its just the lack of minifigs that angers people. We have Harley, and I'm sure we'll get atleast one new torso for Bats. But if wave 4 doesn't come and doesn't have Gordon I'll give them hell! *skull* But atleast this pretty much get all villain re releases out of the way, the only other fig wanting another set is Poison Ivy, so a hopeful Wave 4 would see better figs... Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote

But if wave 4 doesn't come and doesn't have Gordon I'll give them hell! *skull* Batbrick Away! >:-) Very true, that's what makes me upset, i know it costs to put a new torso out but come on it's a tie in to the film. As for Gordon again i'm surprised that lego hasn't made one yet, they have given us everyone else that's really important. So a gordon fig just seems like a must to me. Quote

I agree, but I'm sure there'll be a new torso. The Batbuggy looks like it might have a dark grey one, and the other hints say that we might get a BB one. I want a BB one, all black would look great, but I think I would actually like the dark grey better, it would be the ultimate classic batman. Still, I want Gordon, it was silly of TLC not to inlcude him as a hostage or something in one of these sets. Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote
Athos Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Think you could give us chance to do so? We do get busy you know ;-) . What? I gave you at least a good 20 minutes to do it... ;-) Actually, I hadn't realized how new the pictures were. I'm not real fond of the HQ set. That just jeep dwarfs the bike. Penguin is going to drown, if that's where he rides his sub. Steve Quote

The Penguin Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 (edited) First of all, I'd like to thank Sam for finding the pics.... *y* But.... Well.... I'm a bit confused and disappointed. I do realise that those pics are preliminary and (hopefully) there's a long way still to go, but... The only positive thing I see in those sets is Harley. *wub* And, perhaps, Robin's vehicle.... Batbuggy: It has such an impulse/battle-packish look... :-X I really hate Freeze's cart. It seems that he had no money to buy a good one.... (And now he's de facto is the only villain (Apart from Ivy) without any normal vehicle! ) Robin Sub: Robin's jet is OK, but the color scheme IMHO should have been darker.... As for my submarine..... Perhaps, I was not sober enough when I painted a face on it. |-/ Batcycle: I love Haley and her truck. That thing can really squash bats and I guess it's fun to buld. Oh, and the truck's "Harley"-colors are really nice.... ) Tumbler: The Tumbler is nice and, as said before, fits the scale, but.... Well, I've always thought that Batman should use batmobile, not some tank-like thing.... I will definately get the whole line and my thanks to TLC for it, but I hope that the second line will give us more characters and less vehicles.... Edited February 6, 2008 by The Penguin Quote

I will definately get the whole line and my thanks to TLC for it, but I hope that the second line will give us more characters and less vehicles.... Don't you mean the 4th line? This already wave 3 X-D That said, I agree with you, we need a few locations and new characters. I actually still love the Tumbler though, I guess when you say Batman shouldn't drive a tank-like thing you are referring to his Batmobile, unless you didn't like last years Battank? Does anyone find it hilarious that Harley gets two hammers in the set, a giant car mounted one and her trademark one, which is still comically oversized? Also, It would appear the Batcycle, while hard to see from the annoying view, looks to have a similar design to the Agents motorcycle, which pleases me, as that is a great design so I look forward to seeing it better. I am also very interested in seeing what Mr.Freeze's backpack is like, it looks to be very different. Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote
