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.

I'm hoping it will be 3 sets per box. If you do spring for a box, let me know. I am after a few and don't know if I will get the chance to do an in-store feel. I have a feeling these will go quicker than the Disney ones.

Lol. Nice one

Is it possible for a fellow Canadian on here to list all the sets that are revealed in Canadian prices?

Of course. Anything for Mr. Batfleck  Lol I've seen your icon before but I never realized how awesome your name is. 

The only sets that I've seen prices for us canucks is for the 4 that the US has right now.

- Mr. Freeze: $24.99

- Lowrider: $54.99 

- Batmobile: $64.99 

- Batcave: $129.99

Those were the prices posted on S@H for a short period of time. 

As for the hairpiece. I think we were asked to stop talking about the poster, although I'm glad that there are more people coming over to my side. If you want you can start a new thread with a poll in it  

[Duncan Young]

Didn't realise the Scarecrow guard comes with two separate heads! That's really neat!

[Duncan Young]

Including CM4Sci's villain picture and the CMFs, Clayface and the good guys here are all of TLBM figures for the winter wave (I was however unable to obtain images of inmate Riddler or the Freeze security guard) 

 

[JACKATTACKS]

Wow, nice image. That is a lot of minifigures!

[Deathstroke77]

Great work, Duncan. I need that Red Hood fig. I'll be buying those CMF packs until I get one.

Thanks fellas, can't wait for these to be available worldwide 

[Huigberts Builds]

Wow these are a lot of figures. And we are also getting Scottish Batman, inmate Riddler and the security guard which makes the amount of figures even higher. And this is just the first wave  , I'm so happy right now.

About the hairpiece (sorry again) it's not mirrored. It looks the same in the trailer (the small moment with the justice league). However the image isn't that clear. I was thinking it could be the Larry the Barista hairpiece, but that piece might be too smooth and looks kinda odd on Green Lantern I think.

Don't forget the Dimensions characters!

[Borex]

The amount of minifigures for this movie is insane! So for all of you dc (and especially batman) collectors: good luck finding and getting them all! 

[Deathstroke77]

Scottish Batman?

Highlander Batman aka Tantan Batman.

With the second wave of sets and the minifigs coming out on Jan 1, it appears that I may have to be at the Lego Store early for its opening on that day.  I am hoping to purchase Arkham Asylum and maybe a couple of other sets/minifig packs that day.  In addition to those sets, there is a whole lot more coming out Jan 1 in other lines, so I suspect there will be a lot of people there that morning.  We went last year on New Year's at opening, and it was busy.  Everyone in line knows exactly what they want and will make a beeline to the set(s).  It is funny watching everyone look through the store windows plotting the course they are going to quickly take once they get in the store and probably deciding in their head which set to grab first.  If I did wait until midnight  the night before and placed an order, then by the time I got the stuff (assuming S&H does not crash), it would be the middle of the workweek and the holidays would be over.  I hate having to compete with everyone else to rush into the store at opening, but I really want to start the build of Arkham Asylum on New Year's Day.

It's most likely Dr. Phosphorus - Blight is a different character that exists in the Batman Beyond Earth/Future, so while it definitely COULD be Blight (and Blight is probably more well-known than the Doc due to the Batman Beyond cartoon) the odds are that it's actually Dr. Phosphorus.

 

But the two dudes look so similar that it could be either or, for sure.

I tend to think that it's Dr. Phosphorus, because Blight tended to keep his suit on, and never really exposed his chest, whereas Dr. Phosphorus tended to just blow up. 
I know that's more empirical than realistic evidence, but I figured that it might be useful. Either way, it doesn't really matter who it is,because the pieces can be used to build purist versions of the other one no matter who it actually turns out to be!

HUGO STRANGE, DR PHOSPHORUS, BLACK CANARY, HAWKGIRL!!!! That Bane, Scarecrow and Twoface though... 

Also GL new hairpiece? Superman with boots 

Who is the girl right behind Joker? 

Clearest picture. Who is behind Scarecrow? 

I'm not sure who it is that you're talking about. If you go directly behind Joker in a straight line, it's Poison Ivy, but if you go off to the right on a diagonal, but still directly behind Joker, it's the Gotham City mayor whose name escapes me right now. Behind Scarecrow are Zan and Jayna; The Wonder Twins, who first appeared on Super Friends back in the '70's and '80's.

Hugo Strange isn't that great... I think he looks too young and that torso too plain.

I feel like the age thing is a bit of a crapshoot, to be honest, as we've seen a lot but his torso seems fine to me. Just curious, what don't you like about it?

On 12/1/2016 at 4:09 PM, Slink00 said:

Do I see Julia Pennyworth on the right or is that someone else? There is also a guy in white behind the wonder twins, Polka Dot Man?

Might be Montoya, as some have speculated. YES! I see him too! I don't think it's Polka Dot Man, because I can tell that he's wearing a cap or hat of some kind, and that is definitely white, as are his arms, but his torso and other parts seem to be darker colors. Guess we'll have to wait for either newer posters or the movie itself.

Just realized that Mutant leader has little scars on his body. Would work really well for a shirtless Oliver queen from arrow

 

On 12/1/2016 at 4:40 PM, Duncan Young said:

Good idea, could probably also work for Zsasz

 

On 12/1/2016 at 4:47 PM, Thelegodan said:

Oooh didn't even think of that. His body is definitely gonna be useful

Absolutely! I think his torso could function as the 'injured' torso of any shirtless, fit white male, and that description alone really shows how infinitely useful it might be. 

On 12/1/2016 at 6:41 PM, Themadpatter said:

I really hope we get those black canary and Dr phosphorus I adore both those characters.

im amazed we're getting March Harriet. One off character that I loved and never thought would get a figure. Frustrating we still don't have Hatter and Zsasz though. Would also love a ventriloquist and amygdala

Me too! 

March Harriet is really nice, but you're right, it's frustrating that we don't have a Mad Hatter, especially with her, although I think she could open up the door to him later on down the road!  Zsasz would have to be cleaned up, and that might not be possible, given Lego's target audience, and Zsasz's nature, so I hate to say this, but I think he's off the table. Lego's Chinese Gangster smirk face and plain shirtless flesh torso from Indiana Jones have worked well thus far, and the Mutant Leader has a similar shirtless torso, but with scars, to boot, so a purist version is very possible! 

As for Ventriloquist and Amygdala, I'd say they're possible, but go for customs in the mean time.

Can you give me a list of all characters in poster with sorting by categories - main protagonists; villains; Gotham City citizens; Justice League members, please?

All righty:

Main protagonists:
Batman, Robin, Batgirl (Barbara Gordon), and Alfred, and possibly that cop in the far back, along with Montoya/Julia Pennyworth/Chief O'Hara (we don't know yet exactly who this is yet.*), on the far right, and Commisioner Gordon, given the fact that they made the poster at all.

In other words, the definitive protagonists are Batman, Robin, Batgirl (Barbara Gordon), and Alfred, and possible protagonists are the cop in the far back, Montoya/Julia Pennyworth on the far right, and Commisioner Gordon.

Villains, L-R:
The Mutant Leader, the Kabuki Twins, Hugo Strange, Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, Joker, Killer Croc, Penguin, March Harriet, Captain Boomerang, Riddler Scarecrow, Bane, Catwoman, Mime, Two-Face, Harley Quinn, Clayface, Blight/Doctor Phosphorus/Atomic Skull (we don't know exactly who this is yet either), and Man-Bat.

Citizens of Gotham:

If it turns out they're not protagonists, that cop in the far back, and Montoya/Julia Pennyworth on the far right get demoted to citizens of Gotham. The mayor is seemingly the only definitive citizen in this poster.

Justice League members, L-R:

Hawkman or Hawkgirl (hard to tell which is which), Flash, Black Canary, Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Aquaman, Tarantula II, Green Arrow, Zan and Jayna; The Wonder Twins, Wonder Woman, Superman, Martian Manhunter, and again, Hawkman or Hawkgirl, (hard to tell which is which). 

 

Hope this helps! Happy building! - The Big Red Cheese.

 

*An internet conversation with a member of the production team (as seen right here, two pages ago) outright stated that it's a genderbent Chief O'Hara from Batman '66, but I'd take that with a grain of salt. It's possible, but it seems like a joke to me.

I also think the chief o'hara thing may be a bit of a joke, but I also think it's the style of this film though and would fit.

It may well be a character was needed as a throw away bit of exposition and they thought "megabluck it" and named the character that even though it had already been shot with a female character.

or it was supposed to be Montoya and for some reason (licensing/idiotic morality ect) they were forced to change the name at the last minute.

So is the UK the country that has to pay the same amount for these two sets even though one is MASSIVELY bigger than the other?

That's possible, but I think it's more like the production team trying to throw us off the scent by sending us into a frenzy over a wild goose chase.

[robertgorman2505]

I guess anything is possible with this film!

Just got the Mr. Freeze set and i'm defiantly a fan! I love the piece where Freeze's helmet connects and the whole gotham energy set piece is great for stopmotion...

First, thanks! I didn't realize my name was that good 

Gotta love Canadian prices, good thing I'm only getting my hands on the Catwoman set, the Scarecrow set, Bricklink for the Riddler, grab Red Hood and Gordon from the CMF series and MAYBE get the Clayface set if it goes on sale. The only one that I'm iffy on is the Batcave set, it looks like a poor man's version of the 06 Batcave, but those Bruce and Alfred minifigures as well as that Batboat are really tempting me.
