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.

Yes! The problem is, who's going to get two batcaves to make the Evil Penguin Loop  :grin:

I might be in the minority but the really, really like the Arkham set. The layout is very unique with the position of the watchtower and angled walls and it has a great selection of figures.

I fully agree the Arkham just feels a lot more fleshed out unlike the previous two and like an actual prison with I'm assuming a cafeteria and a gym. I'm just worried about the AUS price. :sceptic:

Nah, I don't think you're in the minority. We're all definitely drooling at least a little... right, guys? I'm not the only one salivating?

If you watch the video here: http://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-dc-super-hero-girls-nycc-2016-exclusive-batgirl-revealed/            

At around 7:35 you can see a very blurry low resolution image of the back of Arkham. 

Thanks for the video. I found it funny that whenever talking about minidolls she said "character X in Lego form", but not so with the minifigs. :laugh: Also how she ended up calling the exclusive a minifig, but I guess it just slipped. That video definitely made me more excited about TLBM sets and less about DC girls. I agree that Arkham looks good, but I want to look at the back before I can form a more solid opinion.

Someone, anyone, very committed to the cause.

The woman with the cat mask?

I think is Killer Croc :wink:

Now you're thinking like a champion. Great work here today, Robert.

Seeing as they've revealed all of the sets displayed at NYCC, I don't know if we'll be seeing any more sets this week.

Also the batmobile and lowrider will be releasing for the 27th of November too as stated on the cards placed by the models at the comic con booth. So if that's the case, will all of the sets (except Arkham) release for the 27th or will it be only these four and then the others for the 1st of January??

I think the back looks great - cafeteria, glass door cells, railings, spotlights, basketball hoop, even a laundry room!

Yeah I think they did a great job with the interior. What really stands out to me is just how different and fresh this Arkham Asylum is from the last version. It doesn't feel like a remake at all. Its great for me as an owner of the previous set as the new one is going to work well as a companion piece - either as another building in the Arkham facility or a stand-in for Blackgate Prison.

Lego's Facebook page has video of their NYCC booth that gives you a look at the New sets. Doesn't seem like there are any more on display that we haven't seen yet. Arkham is confirmed as a TRU exclusive though.

 

EDIT:

 

UGH. Didn't see that video of the Arkham set. Now I look like a total burk.

Arkham looks...okay. I was expecting more, honestly. The entrance needs something more to be there, and I miss the little Harley changing station from the 2013 one. I'm also not a huge fan of the glass cells, and the fact that Ivy doesn't get a personalized one except for some plants out her window. I also don't think there are enough cells. I'll still probably get this, but I also really want the old one.

It does seem quite underdeveloped and sorta fanmade.   like the set it too big with too little detailed content in.   like a not-quite-there  d2c attempt

We know about a Killer Croc swamp set with some obscure villains and about a set with Poison Ivy and a very cool bat vehicle.

Edit: The Killer Croc set will include Batman, Killer Croc, Tarantula and Zebra Man. There will also be a Riddler vehicle based set with Kite-Man

Okay so there is only one set we have no idea what it is yet. Do we know a price range for these yet?

So am I the only one that noticed that the Two-face minifigure kinda looks like Billy Dee Williams (on the good side) and the disfigured side resembles Tommy lee Jones's Two-face design?

The former Arkham's design, with it's complexity fit much better into the "modular series". Even the interior had more depth & personality.
However I'm happy about the different design: the old one was perfect so they tried out something new. For what it's trying to be (different design with more play value) the set does an excellent job in my opinion. The exterior design is a subjective matter while the interior is less for display & more suitable for younger costumers. I just wish the entrance room wasn't so plain..

The arkham asylum set is an easy pass for me. With the lego movie, at least they got their biggest set metalbeard's sea cow (it is a beautiful set) for what it is worth. With the lego batman movie, are you telling me the biggest set you got is this arkham asylum set , which is in my opinion inferior to the old one a few years ago? LEGO, you surprised us all with the batmobile and the joker's car. But, now this...?

It's a little underwhelming... But I do still like it, and will for sure pick it up. I do like all the stickers though, like the don't tap on glass :grin:. The cells look much superior than the ones from the other one. They actually look like what Arkham cells should look like.

Just saw this. Now don't quote me but I'm pretty sure there will be a D2C for the theme. I don't what it'll be, but I'm sure there'll be one. Also in a conversation with someone else there will be a 70913.
