Okay, I have two questions:

1) Is there a Mr Freeze fig inside that mech? I mean, I think it'd suck if it was just the head, if you ask me.

2) So, the release date is November 27th, IIRC... Is it going to be that date in Europe? Or are we going to be left out in the cold like usual it seems with some of these sets?

It does look like it has a torso with black arms. I'd doubt they would include all of that and not give him any legs.

[Deathstroke77]

Yeah, upon reflection, it does look like he has a torso. Not giving hi legs would be an odd move.

It does look like there is room for legs, but I obviously can't be sure. The chest piece is attached to a torso, so it would make more sense.

What are the prices (estimated or confirmed) in the UK so far? I would guess the batcave would be 80 - 90 pounds, similar to Jokerland from last year.

If I remember rightly, the uk prices for the two sets theyve officially announced matched the US prices. Eg- $39.99/£39.99

But I could be wrong.

I hope you are wrong. Otherwise we'll be paying £40 when the Americans pay £28 for a £40/$40 set.

That would be horrendous and completely unfair, I'd expect that the Asylum set will be around £100, the batcave around £80 and Freeze around £18.

Now that I was reminded of Tarantula was it ever confirmed it if was the male or female version?

[Actor Builder]

Red Eyed Penguins? Now I regret not having picked up a Collectible Minifigures Series 16 Wildlife Photographer. 

Also, now we have to start work on finding the True Mythical Legendary Marvelous Evil Penguin Loop of Red-Eyed Lore and Wonder.

About the Mr. Freeze set, I have to say it looks very childish but I like the mech for what it is, but I don't see the appealing of that piece of wall of whatever it is. Those pieces could have been used to get a bigger the mech instead.... because let's be honest, no one cares about a random piece of wall. The mech is real deal here. Overall, $20 sounds like a good price for what you get. The new Mr. Freeze looks very cool. 

*sigh* I guess you have forced my hand 

The wall is a piece of scenery that allows kids to have Batman jumping off of things during a fight and adds context as to where the set is taking place. Or from the perspective of us AFOLs the wall is made of some amazingly useful sand green bricks and has some great decorations added to it like the computer, pipes, valves, and the mug. It looks perfect as the inside of the GCPD or ACE Chemicals and captures a bit of the brutalist industrial architecture and exposed walls of many public facilities after years of wear and tear. Alongside Mr. Freeze the wall adds a hint of an Arkham City vibe as it is reminiscent of his boss fight in the video game within the GCPD forensic labs. The wall is more than meets the eye as you can now see and while it is not the driving factor in the purchase of the set, that privilege belongs to the minifigures, the wall's inclusion is still welcome nonetheless. *end rant*

Not sure why I wrote this at all but if anybody needs an introductory paragraph to their college thesis paper feel free to use the above text.

For those talking about unfair prices, think back a few months to the Ra's Al Ghul set. It's £35 RRP in the UK, but only $30 in the US. So the UK people like myself have to pay around £10 more than you US folk would. It wouldn't surprise me if we got a similar situation here.

On the topic of prices, was there a confirmed price for the Freeze set? I think it might have been £20, but I hope to god it's £12/£15.

Thats plagiarism. If someone is going to write a thesis about something as bland as a wall, they'd better be prepared to write their own arguments. There are so few papers focused on walls that the original author would no doubt come after you if you stole his/her work. Be safe. Don't steal papers on walls, or walls on papers.

Does anybody know what the interior is like to the Arkham Asylum set?  Personally I would hope we get a lot of cell spacento store even the most obscure of villains that are about to be released in this wave.

There's a phone area and an office.. from what I can see in the windows. Also probably cells.

I really hope the interior is good.. the exterior is nice but kinda bland.

I agree with you there... but to be honest I think it does the job.  I mean the previous Arkham seemed to go with detail rather than the scale.  However it's clear to see that the opposite has happened here, I'm not saying it's not detailed because it really is, but just not to the extent the previous version was.  

All that been said, I already think it is my favourite Arkham to date and I've only seen one image of it.  i just hope the interior isn't a huge letdown.

There is cell for Poison Ivy. You can see the plants coming out of the window

And what's up with that food?

Is there a convenience store inside the asylum or something?

I guess that's okay.  The only problem is her cell always seem to take up a fair bit of space don't you think.

A cafeteria

Looking at Mr Freeze some more I do think that his design draws a lot of inspiration from Greg Capullo's design, atleast in terms of skin color. Also is Catwoman also going to have a darker skin tone like Batgirl because from the pictures it does seem that way.

Someone did indicate Catwoman being intentionally darker a couple months or so back, yes.

Yeah, Ivy is three for three Arkham sets with significant cells now. At least she's finally been given a jumpsuit this time. :D

[CM4Sci]

Do Ivy in TLBM and Ivy in DCSHG have different molds? That's kinda overkill.. I feel like they could've used the same one and made a new mold for Batman's cowl (that we currently are only getting one mold of, I really wanna get the surprised one or nervous one)

[Lionbear8]

The Speedwagon

Black Thunder 

Riptide

I love it how all these bat vehicles have specific names. I wonder what other names will be given to the bat vehicles.  

Also just watched the trailer, and was hoping for a bat chair in the batcave set, such a small detail, would of been a great little detail. Oh well, still going to splash all my hard earned money at these sets. 

[GentlemanJoker]

There's so many great details on all of the sets! If you look at the signs on the Arkham Asylum's x-ray machine the one on the right says "No cakes, No sharp edges, and No (couldn't make out the word) pieces.

Looks  to me like " NO CHROME PEICES"

A page or to earlier someone did say that Mr. Freeze does come with legs.
