MatBoyWonder Posted November 5, 2019 Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) There's a look at that new "action" pose piece that looked like joysticks for Wonder Woman in the usual place. Looks like a cool little invention to get people at a nice non 90degree angle! me likely! - although.. I wonder if this means the baseplates have hollow studs so it attaches?

I think it’s been reported that each minifig comes with a 1x2 jumper plate, just like in the picture My only gripe with it is that the colours of the jumper plates and baseplates don‘t seem to match Edit: the leaked Mister Miracle bag contained a black jumper plate, so they‘re either different colours or the person who leaked the new trans-clear piece used the wrong plate for whatever reason...

DC and Marvel switch their releases every year, and we already know Marvel's getting the January wave this year. Marvel and DC both had January waves last year though? Plus we’ve got mighty micros released simultaneously before too. I don’t think this is done by design, it just happens to occur as many Marvel sets coincide with the film’s they’re based off release. 7 hours ago, Lego-Freak said: I think it’s been reported that each minifig comes with a 1x2 jumper plate, just like in the picture My only gripe with it is that the colours of the jumper plates and baseplates don‘t seem to match Is it not possible those pieces could also come in sets?

Do1633 Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 I wonder if the box is going to be of 60 and 300 dollars, or 240 and 3 sets of figures

KingSpoozle Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 This is a bit far beyond 2019, but I'm excited at the prospect of sets based around Reeve's 'The Batman.' Given LEGO's predisposition towards Batman, it could be the first time that a live-action solo Batman movie gets a full wave of sets based around it.

Rumor has it it will be an adaptation of The Long Halloween, so that means a lot of villains will appear

Given LEGO's predisposition towards Batman, it could be the first time that a live-action solo Batman movie gets a full wave of sets based around it. Batman, Catwoman, Penguin, Riddler, Two-Face, Mad Hatter and Firefly - those would make some amazing minifigures based on the movie. It will be a regular PG-13 DC movie, so I really hope it gets a few sets (just like new Spider-Man movies).
TheBatstan Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 I can almost guarantee we'll get sets for The Batman. He's already Lego's bread and butter for their DC sets, and I'd eat my shoe if we didn't end up getting at least a few sets to tie-in with the movie when it comes out in 2021. And we could finally get a Mad Hatter minifigure that way since Lego doesn't seem to want to include him in a comic Batman set or the CMF series at this point.

You’re absolutely right! It’ll be March. I think everybody here forgets the cycle DC and Marvel sets do. One year it’s DC in January and Marvel in March and the next year its swapped around. Well next year Marvel is getting the January slots meaning we won’t here anything about DC for a short while. 22 hours ago, Lego-Freak said: I think it’s been reported that each minifig comes with a 1x2 jumper plate, just like in the picture My only gripe with it is that the colours of the jumper plates and baseplates don‘t seem to match Edit: the leaked Mister Miracle bag contained a black jumper plate, so they‘re either different colours or the person who leaked the new trans-clear piece used the wrong plate for whatever reason... No they will. The example used was out of the guy’s collection I mean he used marvel figures to show the pose piece off.

If the costume designs are on the same level as the casting, I'd be in for a cheap year.

What's that supposed to mean? I completely understand this is 100% subjective but almost all actors on the castlist are very well known actors/actresses including Robert Pattinson, Colin Farell and Andy Serkis.

They're all not what you'd expect, which is why the choices are so intriguing to me I certainly wouldn't say no to new minifig representations of Serkis, Pattinson and Farrell plus the first minifigs of Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright and Zoe Kravitz (unless Leta shows up in the second WW CMF series that is). Either way, since that's a 2021 release, this discussion probably needs to be postponed until next year
Anonknee Muss Posted November 7, 2019 Author Posted November 7, 2019 I mean the thread title does say “Speculation” afterall.
Digger of Bricks Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Um, BrickVault on YouTube just put a review up for the UCS '89 Batmobile, thanking TLG for providing the set?
Hoth Rebel Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 The comparison at the end really impressed me. 60cm is pretty large and compared to the UCS Batmobile MOC it's a beast.

I really like that, according to the brick vault video, that the pieces come in numbered bags up to 24, so you are only sifting through a hundred or so pieces at a time. That is great, it's how every Lego set should be and a far better solution than all the ugly colour vomit!
Terrasher Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Very nice looking set, I might buy it on day 1. Best case scenario I was hoping for, for the CAD price.
GoldenNinja3000 Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Yep, official pictures look amazing, and I love that there are pop-up machine guns and a rotating display stand! The price is the best case scenario, and I’m impressed that there are three new pieces altogether- that windshield is awesome and I’m surprised they made custom tires for the front wheels. The back wheels are definitely using the Tumbler tires. Can’t wait to pick this up!
Digger of Bricks Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 The Brick Fan - LEGO Batman 1989 Batmobile (76139) Officially Announced
TheBatstan Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) "those who purchase the set between 29th November and 5th December will receive an exclusive mini replica of the original model as a free gift available in limited quantities." Welp, looks like it's off to eBay for me. Edited November 7, 2019 by MisterBatfleck
Eaglefan344 Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 This thing looks absolutely incredible. I was wanting to wait to purchase but that GWP is too good to pass up.
