LegoShroom Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) That build is fantastic. I don't care that it only has two figures. I'll get it anyway. Also, if someone has this set, do they have the scarecrow set too. Because I'd like to see the box for that one. Edited November 28, 2016 by LegoShroom Quote

Also I know this is off topic but will target receive another minifigure gift cube this year? Maybe that is how we will get gentleman ghost, crazy quilt, clock king, or polka dot man ugh, comic con figs That's the main reason I think we'll get Clock King but it could amount to nothing. I don't live in the US so I dread CC as well -That car is superb though Edited November 28, 2016 by Duncan Young Quote

Ashnflash Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 At least Penguin has a new face right? Quote

RM0B Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 I personally think they should've added another minifigure to it like a minion or polka dot man or two face Quote
LegoShroom Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) Any word on the piece count; this doesn't seem to be the US box?? Edited November 28, 2016 by LegoShroom Quote
Captain Nemo Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Rather underwhelming set I think. Too much black and gold for my taste. Easy pass though! Quote
Kez Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 The Penguin Arctic Roller looks awesome, although the addition of a penguin goon might've improved the overall look. Some of the 'cool' features that I noticed were: "High Flyer" Registration Plate Fish missiles Blue flick fire missiles from the push of a lever Penguin ornament on the bonnet (hood) of the car Hot air balloon pieces used as a decorative wheel cover Pistol exhausts Presumably the car rear has an opening boot Quote
TenorPenny Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 That roller is a superbly built car, for sure. I'm wincing already at the price in £ already though. Quote

I'm wincing already at the price in £ already though. I'd be surprised if it breaches the £40 mark. Either way, I'm happy to pass. There's no denying that's a great car they've put together and the Penguin fig is also splendid, but I feel like the minifig count here really brings the set down. Figs we've thought were in this kind of set before like Clock King for example would have been a welcome addition just to have more minifigs in there. In addition, it's just the car. This is the same gripe I have with the Batmobile and Lowrider - there's no kind of Bat-vehicle here to ride alongside it. Maybe a Bat-cycle or something could've been used just to balance the set out a bit. It just feels empty having just one build there and no smaller, secondary build to go alongside it.

Amazing Bricks Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Well, it looks like my first opinion on this set was pretty accurate. Just one hero and penguin. I initially thought that robin would be in this with penguin just like the old 2008 set. It's good if you want penguin in cheaper set. The car is outstanding, but it's a pass for me. Quote

benderisgreat Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Nice set! Sure only 2 minifigures is not enough, but build is superb compared to Riddlers set, that set needed many minifigures to sell, this one doesn't. It's just one great build. Quote
ToaDraco Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Yeah that car looks great but 2 figs is ridiculous. At least it's a cheaper way to get Penguin. Quote
Deathstroke77 Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 That Scarecrow set is fantastic! However, the Scarecrow fig is kind of a let down. Couldn't they have used like a vest piece to put over a regular Scarecrow torso? Oh well, I hope the summer set Scarecrow is rumoured to be in gives us a regular version. Quote
GeekByKnight Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 I like it. Weird choice to not include a henchman or second villain, but it's a cool design. Quote
Master of Fear Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 I had a funny feeling they were going to do that with the minifigures in the Arctic Roller set. Quote
Sir Gareth Posted November 28, 2016 Author Posted November 28, 2016 @Puffle Pal26 If it's not asking too much, could you please upload the backside of the Arkham Asylum set box? Quote
TheBrickBuilder14 Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Glad that the Penguin set isn't that overwhelming means I have one less set to worry about. I am massively confused by the European release dates of these sets. Does anyone have 100% confirmation on the date when all of the sets (not the first 4) will be available? Quote

Oooh, yes, I'd really like to see what's in the Asylum. Also, you didn't happen to get the Scuttler early, too, did you? Quote
