Now I wish I had saved that image. Quote

julesvincent Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 That's what I learned in the last weeks: Save every picture out there on your device! Quote
Mr Brick 4 life Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 I've had to make this account due to the fact I'm getting desperate can someone please tell me where I can find the leaked cmf photos. Quote
BrickRapper Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Go to google images and type up words like: Batman movie CMF list and try find it. That's how I did it. Quote
Darth Shadowthrone Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Ok so I've just found a picture through Google Images which matches some of the minifigure descriptions above (Tooth Fairy Batman was the standout) but could anyone provide a full list of what the rest of them will be? Very excited for this CMF wave now and trying to collect some of these should be pretty fun. Quote
rob-ot5000 Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) So now that the image has been confirmed as legitimate, are we allowed to openly discuss it (even though we can't post it or link to it)? I'm going to assume so. The only version of the image I've seen is extremely low-res and hard to make out. Has anyone been able to identify them all? Numbers 9, 13, and 18 are particularly puzzling for me... 1 - Tooth Fairy Batman 2 - ? 3 - Glam Rock/ Kiss-style Batman? 4 - Caveman Batman? 5 - Excalibat (from Dimensions) 6 - Duck Floaty Batman 7 - Chef Disguise Joker 8 - Harleen Quinzel (from Arkham set?) 9 - ? 10 - Barbara Gordon? 11 - Inmate Joker (from Arkham) 12 - Boxing Batman (from Batcave) 13 - ? 14 - Clock King 15 - Red Hood 16 - Orca? 17 - Eraser 18 - ? 19 - March Har(riet) 20 - Catman Edited October 30, 2016 by rob-ot5000 Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) Hang on a second, that CMF list was genuine? Can't say I saw that one coming I like most of the choices here (especially Chef Joker) but what still throws me off (and what led me to dismiss the leaked picture initially) was the amount of minifigs that appear in other sets. I dearly hope those are simply placeholders Edited October 30, 2016 by Lego-Freak Quote
Mr Greeble Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Perhaps it wasn't just a CMF list, but just a list of minifigures for the entire series, sets and CMF. That would clear things up a bit if it was true. Quote

Maybe, but then I wonder why it's comprised of EXACTLY 20 minifigs, just like the CMF series is said to include I have a different theory: maybe this was just an initial draft and they decided to swap some characters between the sets and the CMF, so perhaps Boxer Batman for instance switched places with an unknown Batsuit variant that is now in the finalised CMF series That could explain why some characters are drawn while others are CGI; maybe they weren't designed by the same person (or at the same time) and that picture was the result of a brainstorming session. This is the first time EVER prelim pictures of a CMF series surfaced, so who knows how the design process works in comparison to regular sets Quote

Borex Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Well if that list is true. I can see them reuse the gingerbread man's head for the clock king. And i hope that the figs that appear in other sets will be replaced by equally wacky villains as the clock king and the human eraser. Quote

And if you compare those with the final pics, you can see some things did change, but not the character selection. Those pics, however, where from a later step in the process, and they were actual prototypes. I still hope that we will get 6 exclusive batsuits in this series, much to my wallet's demise but to my Batman collection's delight. Quote

They appear to be wearing a preliminary version of robin's glasses hairpiece. 13 - I'll try to describe it best I can - skin color is medium flesh (like this), wearing 87990 in brown, yellow googles printed on the face, bare arms, black hands, torso has yellow stripes and a brown circle in the middle, top half of legs are brown, bottom half of legs are yellow. 18 - red cape, looks like kraven's new neck piece thing around the neck, a silver dome on the top of the head, torso is brwn with what looks like a sash acros the chest, over the legs ot looks like Dana's legs from the Ghostbusters ( on the right side you can see a part of the leg (it's silver) ) feet are bare Quote

CM4Sci Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 On 10/15/2016 at 3:49 PM, CM4Sci said: Here is my stance on the alleged CMF picture: I think it's real. I think that it's a very very early, in-house preliminary design shown exclusively to some people, which is why it has an old logo and figures that we've seen Because it is unfinished and very early, some figures have changed since then. I think about 80% of these figures are in the actual series (the new ones) and the ones that we have seen already were originally going to be in the series, but have since then been put into other sets instead. Things like Excalibat's belt are not in LDD (yet) so I think they used some sort of advanced LDD to make some of the pictures while the rest at the time were only sketchups. Also, Red Hood looks like he uses Mr. Freeze's helmet (which I think is clever) so that's another reason why. So basically I think yes, it's legitimate, but at the time this was a super early, unfinished, private photo. My theory ^ in case anyone wants to see it The list @rob-ot5000 in the pic is: 1. Pink Fairy Batman 2. Roman Legionnaire Batman 3. Glam Metal Batman 4. Cave Batman? 5. Excalibat 6. Vacation Batman 7. Chef Joker 8. Harleen Quinzel 9. Dick Greyson 10. Barbara Gordon 11. Arkham Joker 12. Boxing Bat 13. Tarantula 14. Clock King 15. Red Hood 16. Orca 17. Eraser Man 18. King Tut 19. March Harriet 20. Catman Quote

I'm so glad this list is confirmed I hope the swimming bat suit and inmate joker are not stand ins cause I want multiple of them. Quote

Huigberts Builds Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Don't wanna play devil's advocate here, but I don't think minifigures that appear in other sets should be ruled out. The LEGO movie for example still had Emmet, Wildstyle and President Business. I don't know of they had any different facial expression or special accessory, but that could be the case here too. So if it didn't hold LEGO back in the past... Of course there are more duplicates this time around, but keep in mind there are also more minifigures in this series. Of course there could be some swapping between sets and blindbags, but that might not be the case for all of them. Quote

Yeah, the CMF versions of Emmet, Wyldstyle, Business and Bad Cop all had unique facial expressions as well as different outfits and/or accessories. You're right, that may be the case in the LBM series as well, but some of those characters are very distinct and don't allow for much variation (especially Boxer Batsy and Excalibat) Edited October 30, 2016 by Lego-Freak Quote

But I don't think they but a variant of tarantula with him being such an obscure character. the inmate joker I can see them making because in the picture he has a different hair piece. The duplicate bat suits are probably stand ins because I don't think lego will take the chance of you getting a character that you have to pay more money for in another set, which is the case with Excalibur Bat.
