Sure the name is potentially problematic for parents, but they can just name the sets "the Squad" or something. I hope if they can't make Suicide Squad sets, they at least do the same as they did with 2016's Suicide Squad movie and release comic book versions of those characters in Batman sets. I wouldn't see any problem in them doing what they did before, throwing the characters into Batman sets. But they don't need to be plastered with the names 'Suicide Squad' or 'Task Force X'. For AFOLs it's never been about what name is on the box, just which figures are in the set
Robert8 Posted May 29, 2020 Posted May 29, 2020 I hope they'll do that with Joaquin Phoenix Joker and Jaret Leto Joker at some point I'd be nice to get every Joker incarnation

Well, besides the name: Isn't this next one supposed to be rated R? The previous one is definitely much more adult than your standard superhero film, even if it was still pg-13. I think we'd most likely see something like what you mention at the end, and get suicide squad characters in batman sets.

Harkonen Posted May 29, 2020 Posted May 29, 2020 So... Do we have any explanation why we have like what? 4 DC sets this year? This is probably the smallest number of sets the theme ever had.

I see it as a compensation for 2017/18, both of which were dominated by DC thanks to TLBM

I see it as a compensation for 2017/18, both of which were dominated by DC thanks to TLBM Well, people could say that, I'm just dissapointed by the designs the sets have. Only WW84 set is good. Marvel this year is getting a lot of good sets and I hoped for that with DC too. Maybe next year we get more sets with three movies coming and one being a Batman film too. The CMF is great. I really hope LEGO will reuse the batman piece introduced in it in future sets. I'm still surprised lego uses the old batman mask mold in 2020 sets(the 4+ penguin set). Wonder when are they gonna retire it since we are not gonna get any more Lego Movie Batman. Edited May 29, 2020 by Harkonen
The Pearson Posted May 29, 2020 Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Has anyone's Zavvi order shipped yet? Edited May 29, 2020 by The Pearson
Harkonen Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 Any idea how the DC cmf sold? In my area it's on discount. I wonder if we get a series 2.

Afaik it sold fairly well but we can't really answer this question as LEGO (obviously) doesn't share how well something sells. Who knows if we'll get another series? We'll just have to wait and see
The Pearson Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) Kingdom Come Superman leaked... is it real or fake/custom? EDIT: Nevermind. I think it uses parts from a bootlego brand, POGO. Edited May 31, 2020 by The Pearson

Ashleybricks Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 Does anyone know if there is a LEGO Batman set based off the tim Burton Batman movies?

There are two, the UCS batmobile and a normal scale batmobile which was store exclusive I think? There is another batmobile that released last year that kind of resembles the Burton one. I wish they did sets based on them and on TDK trilogy too.

Nope, that was a GWP Probably one of the biggest GWP sets they’ve ever released, I mean that easily could’ve been a regular set
THELEGOBATMAN Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 9 hours ago, Ashleybricks said: Does anyone know if there is a LEGO Batman set based off the tim Burton Batman movies? Yup, 76139 "1989 Batmobile" released last November. It costs $250 and includes 3306 pieces. This GWP that was mentioned above is hard to get, tou would probably have to Bricklink it for a pretty big price. Also, it doesn't include any minfigs.

They did make sets based on TDK trilogy: 76001 76023 We got Bane and Joker

I am so happy that I got TDKR set when it was available, I bet this one's gonna sell for a bug price in a few or more years.
PRbrickbuilder Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) So, there is already a Build Review of the Bat-base. A nice set, lots of play features, including a rotating mechanism in the center for the chair and the weapon's rack. The small vehicles are nicely hidden. I like the truck and the figs, I think the only flaw of the set is the aircraft, which has small wings in a big non-aerodynamical body. Edited June 5, 2020 by PRbrickbuilder English
Legocity2713 Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 Don’t know if its been mentioned here already but Lego has been selling polybags on their site recently and one of them is The Lego Batman Movie Disco Batman/Tears of Batman one. Its $3.99, pretty great deal especially if anyone missed out on it. Much better than ebay and even Bricklink prices. As I recall it was a GwP. https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/disco-batman-tears-of-batman-30607?CMP=AFC-AffiliateUS-oSv/vWYkQIY-2014326-115554-30607

THELEGOBATMAN Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I like that set even more after this review, such a good and unique Batman set with a great selection of minifigures. I would love to see how Batman looks with those different capes tho.
