February 17, 20223 yr I’d love a Peacemaker minifig. If LEGO can do Daredevil and Punisher they can do Peacemaker

First off, because not enough people are going to sign it for it to be "presented to lego", but secondly, because if non-batman sets sold well, we'd have more non-batman sets. Lego does there own market research, and apparently batman sets sell the best by far. This isn't even a "well lego maybe just doesn't realize" situation, because it's not like we've never had substantial numbers of non-batman sets. There've been scatterings of non-batman stuff throughout the last decade, and, well, most of them haven't sold all that great. Last year (or maybe even before that?) a Lego brand rep also got asked about the disparity between Marvel and DC stuff and chalked it up to the fact that Marvel is the more popular brand and has a more consistent stream of content to tie into for merchandisers. Where as a lot of DC's non-Batman attempts have been very hit or miss. So while it's unfortunate, I can see why that'd be a concern. 2 hours ago, hvader said: I’d love a Peacemaker minifig.

Though honestly a comic Peacemaker could serve double duty as both a comic and TV series fig since the costume in the show is straight off the page.

I’d say it’s more a violence thing rather than what version they depict, but conversely I’d say Peacemaker’s language would be a bigger barrier, unfortunately.

And that’s exactly the problem With other characters, they could always believably claim the minifigs are inspired by a comic counterpart to avoid controversy. Here?

February 17, 20223 yr Ha! True. Either way, I'd love to get him eventually. Been enjoying the show a lot.
February 18, 20223 yr My condolences to all DC fans out there, this is a pretty rough year for the theme

Like truly, I've lost my hope for them. If we do get them? Amazing. Not gonna hype myself up for another disappointment tho.

February 18, 20223 yr The $210 set is supposedly the Sanctum Santorum, which only makes the Tower of Fate fakeout hurt more, cuz odds are they wouldn’t do both but if they do the Tower of Fate will likely end up being a dinky $30 set with just a Batman figure and The Joker wearing the helmet of fate.

February 18, 20223 yr Anyone have any plans for cool MOCs? I get that we all want new stuff, but I've been taking the last couple of years as an opportunity to collect old figures I missed out on and to work on the builds that I want to see. The Tower of Fate wouldn't be a difficult MOC, unless you try to include some of those M C Escher esque staircases. The only thing that would be missing is Fate himself. Which yeah, is unfortunate, but I'm afraid people aren't taking advantage of the whole purpose of Lego. If we aren't getting a new Arkham, the Hall of Justice, Wayne Enterprises, or a Bat Train then by zod why aren't people building them to satiate that desire and get people excited about those things?

Not gonna hype myself up for another disappointment tho. I'm still a sucker , and have faith! If anything the Flash movie should have Batman themed sets! I would love it if Lego would clear things early on in the year, with a firm number of sets that would be released for DC. To me it seems like since they hired a person to look after the leaks, they have better control and are releasing set information to bloggers, news websites with solid fan foundations! Just tell me at the start of the year that I'm only getting 2 DC sets instead of these crappy mind games!

February 19, 20223 yr Great. Less than three weeks after the rumour got popped and now this. Way to kick us when we’re down, Lego. Do we need a disclaimer at the start of the thread to explain that any rumours are about a set’s existence? Perhaps it’s time to start filling in the gaps in the collection, see if I can finish before Lego release another non-Bat figure.
February 19, 20223 yr 39 minutes ago, DaleCooperFBI said: why? None of the CW shows have had any sets, only exclusive comic con figures. Likely because the audience for those shows aren't exactly kids, and are much smaller than the movies, which themselves aren't getting a whole lot of love. Batwoman in particular really feels like it has a small fanbase, there's a hell of a lot of hate for that show online
February 19, 20223 yr Our last hope is that the rumored $500 set is DC related! Yes I've heard it could be Marvel!
