NXS7 Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 2 hours ago, Lego-Freak said: There are simply too many variables involved Personally, I don’t think sales of the Burtonmobile and -wing would be any different if DC had larger waves. Large-scale models like that don‘t have the same target audience as a 6+ Batman set. There may the odd person who only bought these sets out of loyalty towards DC, but that‘s a negligible amount of customers overall. In my estimation, the only way other sets could have negatively impacted those sales would have been smaller sets based on the Burton films Well it was all "what if", there's no real definitive answer, its just something to think about. I'd love smaller scale Burton sets though, I've never been one to display my sets, as the D2Cs should be, and personally I'm not always that interested in them, I prefer smaller minifig scale sets with good figures, which hasn't been DC for me since the Batcave wave
thephantasm Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Fulcrum shouldn't tease info so early. A few hours early is fine but now its just annoying
lego_guyon02 Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 '66 Joker leaked. New expressions, looks good.
Soupperson1 Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) Hmm, I wonder if this Joker is from the 4+ set or the 66 set? He does look excellent! Selfishly I adore the moustache print, but I know a few people who bought the old set who didn’t. I’m surprised they didn’t axe it here just to give those people a print they like. :P Edited March 25, 2021 by Soupperson1

astroboy75 Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Is the 66set the D2C? I'm still hoping for new Burton D2C ...

thephantasm Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) If snyder had finished his movie and released it in theaters, I'm pretty sure the flying fox and the knight crawler would have sold better. There's a really good movie somewhere inside the 4 hours and now I actually want an Ezra Miller Flash. Too bad it was never meant to be. No one knew snyder could partially learn from his mistakes Edited March 25, 2021 by thephantasm

thephantasm Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) Its crazy to me how there are like 3 sets inspired by batman 66 but lego hasn't produced even 1 set for cw's the flash. During season 2 I can assure you it was huge, here in asia as well. But I guess they were less daring back then, only putting him in that beware the batman set to test the waters Edited March 25, 2021 by thephantasm

I hope they never make sets based on the CW Flash show, that show needs to die asap and take the entire Arrowverse down with them while they're at it. I used to love it to death so it pains me to see how far it has fallen, it's pretty much nonsensical teen-drama garbage now (especially last weeks episode was infuriating). The other shows, bar Arrow's earlier seasons, weren't that great anyway and Crisis was just laughable.

I mean yeah I wish the cw would die but I would still buy a set of lego zoom Also its not gonna die anytime soon, because they are already making a naomi show and superman and lois just got a season 2 so....

It's been like that since the beginning, teen drama soap opera's are the CW's specialty. I used to watch The Flash live every Tuesday night but eventually I realized how terrible it was and dropped it halfway through Season 3.
thephantasm Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 My problem with the cw wasn't the drama but the tropes and worsening cgi and costume and set design Unless the episodes were filler, I really didn't notice excessive amounts of drama in the earlier seasons
cosmic Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 The new Joker figure is actually really well printed. The colors look correct, the face print is new, and it looks super similar when paired next to the original 66’ Joker figure. Unlike the new Batman, where the skipping out in the dual molded legs and the subpar print job (might have been a first impression I have not revisited that leak recently) made it inferior to the original release.
TheLEGOChap Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 What are the chances that the D2C is a Tumbler re-do? The original is my white whale and have been very close to pulling the trigger recently

Legoman123 Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 To be honest I’m hoping for the D2C to be Arkham Asylum, Wayne Manor or Hall of Justice.
