Maybe that was this set and it’s now cancelled? Its the LM2 as mentioned by Duncan Young. If you scroll back i think it was mentioned here a couple weeks back.

It doesn't mean that Lego will NEVER give Superman a different outfit, but seven years later it still hasn't happened. I’m sad now
Lionbear8 Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 So if Marvel is getting more then 1 new set towards the end of the year. is DC expected to get some new sets beside the D2C?

I don‘t think so The same thing happened last year with the wave of Spider-man sets and we didn‘t get a new DC wave until January, so I‘d expect a similar procedure this year
SoupOrFishOil Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 (edited) Per tradition, we should be seeing a 2020 DC set revealed very soon though! Edit: Does anyone remember what the reveal for the 2018 wave was at SDCC 2017? Was it Mighty Micros that year? I don't remember any of the Justice League sets being revealed. Edit 2: Ah, looks like it was all three of the winter JL sets. I doubt we'll be that lucky again. Edited June 28, 2019 by SoupOrFishOil

I think Lego is done with JL sets, as sad as it is it’s over for those because the flop the 2018 ones were. However I believe Lego can still pull JL sets off, if they actually put time and effort into them. I feel like the 2018 JL sets were kinda rushed and just had “never before seen” characters like killer frost and firestorm. But those 2015 “Lego Batman 3” sets were what I think the best DC wave we have ever gotten. Those characters were very very well done. And I also feel like “Lego dc supervillians” has some awesome character designs, for example I am a huge fan of the doomsday, bizzaro, green lantern (Simon bazz) and the green arrow minifigures from that game. And I would pay extra to get them in a 2020 sets (but I highly doubt it would happen).

LEGO is really at fault if the 2018 sets didn't sell well, as the builds were simply abhorrent.

On the idea of high grossing popular films getting new waves of sets, the obvious choice on the DC side would be a reveal of some Shazam sets. Seeing as we haven't gotten anything from the movie besides a tenuously linked polybag. But that polybag is probably a sign of it not happening though...

There's nothing to indicate the 2018 sets sold any worse than usual and the DC Superheroes theme has been alternating back and forth between Batman sets and Justice League ones for a while now.

It sound more like personal opinion on the design of the sets rather than actual info on how well they sold.
GoldenNinja3000 Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 I haven’t been keeping up with this thread at all since the summer sets were revealed. I got the Batmobile set when I was in London and I really like it, I think it’s one of the best Batmobiles made so far although I wish it had some more play features. Is there any more news on the D2C set? If it’s a mid July VIP early access then we should be seeing it any day now right?

From what ive noticed those 2018 JL sets got alot of hate, id be very surprised if we got new JL sets with new characters. and im talking remakes of some minifigures such as, green lantern, green arrow and a new superman. however there is plenty of room for brand new characters such as hawkgirl, red lanterns, pink lanterns, black adam, new yellow lanterns, new green lanterns (badge, simon bazz, and killawog) and MANY others. I feel Lego barley scratched the surface of what dc characters they could unveil. and considering the dc line has been around for like 10-11 years and we constantly keep getting remakes and no new characters im kinda drifting away from the DC line and am not so hopeful for any JL sets next year.

Quite surprised at how much I like the build. The figures are also incredible new designs, although I prefer last years Batman Rebirth adaptation.

The sets are out already? certain $20 dollar sets from different themes are available at Walmart and are advertised on one of those cardboard isle shelves. And Barnes & Noble is selling 4 of the new Wizarding World sets. I haven't seen anything else as of this post. I personally am hoping to see new sets for 2020 for Marvel, DC and SW at San Diego Comic Con plus any new 2019 sets for Marvel or DC. At this point I don't care what the D2C Lego Batman set is so I'll continue to wait patiently until a reveal.

The Batman vs Mr Freeze is out at Walmart as an early release look in the main isle out by the toy section. They also have Harry potter, Ninjago, Creator sets at $20. That's all I have seen so far and like said above Barnes and Noble has the Harry Potter sets.
DeCommander96 Posted July 7, 2019 Posted July 7, 2019 Does anyone have the new Batman set with Shazam? I don't know whether to buy or not
