WW set is supposedly exclusive and they aren't usually shown at Toy Fair.

Even if it's an European Toy Fair? In my country we don't have retail exclusives, all stores have the same sets apart from the D2C (Tumbler, 1966 Batcave, Helicarrier, Arkham Asylum etc.) mostly.

Because your country is "-" on your profile :P

But generally retail exclusives are not shown at toy fairs. And I don't have retail exclusives here too, because there are no official LEGO stores, I buy my sets all from retailers.

Yeah... Never knew how to change and I must admit was a little too lazy to look for it. I guess retail exclusives are an American thing no?

Going back on the topic of when the ser should release and when we should see pictures, I think I have an idea. I think we will see the set pictures for the Wonder Woman set by the end of this month, like the second to last week. I also think that the actualy set will release in mid/late March. I do have a reasoning for this though. Take for example the recent Doctor Strange set, thr movie released in November, but the set came out in August and we saw set pics in June. Same timing happened for the retail exclusive Captain america Civil war set. Remember the Wonder Woman set is a retail exclusive. Another example is the Batman V Superman sets. Even though they werent exclusives, they can be taken into consideration. The movie came out in March end, but we saw pictures/leaks in November, and the sets released in Jan. So yes I think the Wonder Woman set will release mid March, and we will see pics/leaks very soon, in a few weeks.

@just2good said the set's release will coincide with the movie's release. I don't think we'll see pics until later.

Wow it's going to be above $100!  Let's hope its a HQ of some sort and not another vehicle.  Could this finally be the time we get Wayne Manor.

[Thelegodan]

Yeah the box for the set was definitely very large, but are we sure that's 100$+? I mean I'd be ecstatic, because that opens up a whole lot more characters they could put in sets (Commisionor Gordon and Mera for example) but since they're following pretty closely to how the Bvs sets were done I'd assume it would be around 60 - 80

Does the 2 smaller boxes not also look larger than the 2 smaller BVS boxes?

The big set is extremely likely to be the flying fox, which would need a larger amount of pieces than the batjet.

 

-btw  bvs sets came out 2 months and 3 weeks before the movie-

From the look of the boxes for the other two sets I would say $30 & $60.

So if that's the case then the wave is already twice as large in size/price  and hopefully it gets reflected in minifig count as well =D

Look at the pics again. There is a mighty micros box in the corner. Same size as top box - 14$ tops

[Duncan Young]

The middle set is probably that Night-Crawler vehicle

I do not claim this to be science, take away from it what you will, theres some perspective etc at play in the images so I compared to both the micro boxes.

So what's everyone guess on minifigures? Batman will probably be in every set, right? Standard in 2 sets and googles version in biggest set.

I won't try to go to far into speculation, but I'd assume there will be all of the league split up into the sets. The biggest set will most likely have Steppenwolf seeing as how they like to put the main baddie in the biggest set (ie. Lex Luthor) Parademons as henchmen are almost most definitely (such as ultron drones the Lex Corp workers, and the Chitauri). Hoefully Commisionor Gordon or Alfred will make there way into sets like Lois lane did, but that's wishful thinking. Of course I have nothing to base this off, but prior knowledge of how lego has comic book movie sets in the past

[Deathstroke77]

The first set (smaller box) looks to me like it's only a £12 set, but it might be bigger, but I personally would expect it to be something similar to Clash of the Heroes from 2016. I think it's more or less a no brainer to have the Flying Fox as a set, and I'd imagine that will be the middle set, about £60, give or take. The bottom set will likely involve the big battle of the movie, if I had to guess. Maybe Solar Suit Superman in there too? I assume we'll probably get pictures of these JL sets in maybe, what, May or June?

The WW set sounds pretty meh, to be honest. The idea of a Giant Man-sized Ares is pretty disappointing, I'd have hoped for a normal minifig of him.

[Duncan Young]

@Deathstroke77 I agree. After all this waiting for a Wonder Woman villain and he's going to be brick built. It isn't helped that it seems like this is our only shot at getting a WW villain (Unless we get another comic based JL centric wave that is. Although we'll probably get a set if DC makes a sequel)

@Deathstroke77 I'd assume that JL sets will come out in the summer wave (June) so I'd expect pictures quite a bit before that. This movie is coming out around the same time Doctor strange did last year so it'll be the same type of release (I'd assume)

The Doctor Strange set came out in August though...

Hmm, possibly. However, the Doctor Strange set wasn't really that spoilery - we all knew of the figs in that set, and the Sanctorum itself had no major spoilers, I don't think. These sets undoubtedly will have some spoilers, at least, so it would make sense for DC to want them to have a delayed release date.

Nah, just a really big flamethrower buggy that isn't in the film.
