TheBrickPal Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Confirmed; the woman on the poster is actually a genderbent Chief O'Hara from Batman '66! Quote
TheBrickBuilder14 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Didn't see that one coming... why would they do such a thing? Its not as if O'Hara is such a famous character that he needs to make an appearance at all but to have him, now her apparently, appear only to change his race is just ridiculous. Atleast Montoya would have made sense... oh well its only a kids movie I suppose... was planning on using Det. Barbara Gordon figure for Montoya anyway so no big loss. Quote

robertgorman2505 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 I really don't understand two things about this figure. 1. Why the unnecessary gender swap? 2. Why include such an obscure character instead of a Harvey Bullock or Renee Montoya figure? Quote
Nerd-with-a-Pencil Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Well, my money's on Montoya being a lesbian, but it's still weird. I'm kinda thinking they're pulling a joke on us. Quote
Captain Nemo Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Let's not debate non-physical minifigures from posters please. Talk about the sets we know we are getting--thanks! Quote

They probably just inverted his character image like they did to Aquaman. If you look closely you can see his hair is going the wrong way. No, it isn't. Gordon's hair curves upwards slightly as it parts left, while GL's parts right and downwards. Quote

Four of them are already cracked by Delta's IG. @Delta Customs Care to enlighten us on the final one? The fifth set that Captain Unicorn sent me a description of weeks ago that I also overlooked and did not know existed because Skype is broke and doesnt send me notifications? If not, then no, I have no idea what "fifth set" you speak of. Quote

Sorry I know we weren't supposed to continue talking about the poster so I'll bring things back on track. Has anyone gone and counted how many Batman head variants we're getting? Quote

Huigberts Builds Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 I wonder what the fifth set could be. Btw, is Killer Crocs tail also the same one as used on the old Lego crocodile? I know about his head but I never got a clear look at the tail. About the hairpiece, I was thinking it could be the piece used on Howard in the Big Bang Theory set. O'Hara looks nothing like O'Hara, so I don't mind we won't get her in the sets. Harvey Bullock can easily be made with the dedective from the dedective office with a bearded face instead of the regular yellow head (I prefer the lake town guard head) and I'm pretty sure we'll finally get reverse flash when the flash movie comes out. But I'm going way of topic now. Quote
Coopa182 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 When do you think we can expect to find out the Minifigure distribution per box? I'm not sure I want to commit to preordering a sealed box of 60 just yet when we can't be sure if there are 1, 2 or 3 complete sets per box. They've gone up $1 / 20% here in NZ, from $4.99 to $5.99, although you never really need to wait long for a retailer to do 15 to 20% off. Quote
deskp Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Is same hair except the image is mirrored, Aquaman is mirrored aswell. Quote

Delta Customs Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 14 minutes ago, Mr Greeble said: It's perspective. Not when the hairpieces are shaped differently in more then one place. Like I already said, Gordon's is going up and then down with a boxier shape. GL's is more rounded. Also, we know for a fact the Gordon's hair parts left, right? Hal Jordan always wears his ring on his right hand, commonly seen in his ring hand forward pose and the other arm back, which is also what we see here. If it was just a mirrored jpg of the figure, his left arm would be the one going forward and his right going back. Over-analyzation of a non-physical figure? Very. But I'm am still confident that it is not the same hairpiece. Quote
JACKATTACKS Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 I agree - different hairpiece. On a different note I am glad the CMF's are being released on Jan 1. Quote
ToaDraco Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Yeah that's the exact same hairpiece, I don't see how anyone could see it differently. 2 hours ago, Delta Customs said: https://imgur.com/gallery/wPdaq That line is not tracing the same thing, on GL it's tracing how it extends outward, just like it does on Gordan's, not how it fits against the minifig head like it's traced on the Gordan image. It's the exact same piece, just brown and mirrored. The comparison is not accounting for the tilt of GL's head. Back on topic, that Batwing 3 in one sounds intriguing. I'm also glad we are getting a proper Two-face and Scarecrow. I'm not familiar with Mutant Leader so that's fine I guess but bigfig Bane will be a must have!. Hopefully that set won't be too expensive. Man, with a limited LEGO budget, TLG is making it reeaally hard for me to pick and choose. I sill have sets on my list from the past 2 years to catch up on! It's a good dilemma to have though, they've really done a great job on these LBM sets so far. Edited December 3, 2016 by ToaDraco Quote

It's a good dilemma to have though, they've really done a great job on these LBM sets so far. I do understand that I didnt factor in the perspectives of both of them, but now that you've pointed it out, the perspective would not completely rearrange how the piece is designed, specifically where the hairline is. Gordon's is clearly farther back, showing a good majority of his forehead. GL's hair isn't exposing much of his forehead, if any at all. You might say that his mask print is covering up the forehead area, but if it was we'd be seeing the entire mask print, showing that his hair goes lower that Gordon's. GL's hair also swoops right and smoothly into the rest of his hair on his hairpiece. Gordon's does not, as it has ruffles sticking out before it trainsitions into the rest of the hair. Quote

I've been wondering about this, especially considering there's 20 figures. Are they gonna be bigger boxes, or are some of these characters gonna be SUPER rare? Quote
