This theme is in pretty bad shape despite what supporters are saying. I mean look at how many pages the Marvel thread has compared to this one. I guess we just look at things differently, I don't support any theme and could care less how many pages of mostly worthless drivel are written either, nor would I care if there was a year long break, or more of any theme. There is so much other stuff, I feel no need to focus on just one theme either, so there is always something for me. Might not be popular opinion but I'm okay with that. I do have a lot of DC sets and I am working on a Batcave now, plenty of source material too, so I patiently wait to see what TLG comes up with. I am not about to actively campaign for more sets and variety, or for them to drop the theme entirely but if others feel like doing it, more power to them. ✌️ Edited June 26, 2022 by Johnny1360 Quote

I love seeing all the different types of Batcave Mocs. The reason I get so upset with the lack of DC sets is mainly due to my small room space I really can only collect one theme so I go with Superheroes, and I try to fit as many of them in my room as I can Quote
Johnny1360 Posted June 27, 2022 Posted June 27, 2022 Lol, I get it, shelf space is at a premium in my hovel as well. It requires actually tearing down some sets occasionally, my least favorite thing about LEGO. I am trying to incorporate the last two batcaves without much success but I am always tinkering with it, one of these days, hopefully it will be worthy. Quote
rome00150 Posted June 27, 2022 Posted June 27, 2022 I get it ive had to store a lot of my sets. I've been trying to make a batcave for awhile now mainly to store all my batvehicles but it's been a long process Quote

Legocentrico Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 maybe it refers to the flash, but they printed the catalog before the postponement Quote

It'll probably be a bat-vehicle, but I'm hoping for something with Superman and/or wonder woman included alongside it. 1 hour ago, THELEGOBATMAN said: The Flash set was supposed to come out in August.

We are definitely at that stage though. I mean I’m not going to buy it if it’s more recycling, but at least there’s still a pulse. If it isn’t 4+ it’s about time we had another Batboat. Yeah, Miller has screwed that one. Snyderverse characters have been pretty badly cursed. Quote

Wonder Woman: I'm not up to date on DC rumors, but I haven't heard anything about bringing Gadot back, even though she, like Cavill, was considered one of the better parts of the DCEU. Aquaman: He might be the only one doing well, but even then, the second film's delayed and his co-star did some messed up stuff. Cyborg:..might not be his fault, but he's never coming back. Flash: ...and yeah. Ezra Miller makes the rest of this seem like nothing. No idea how he got away with this stuff as long as he did, or how slow hollywood was to do anything once he finally got caught, even though Johnny Depp got immediately knocked off all upcoming movies over what turned out to be very false accusations. But yeah, I don't think we'll be seeing his flash again. Quote

There's been rumors of her wanting to leave after Wonder Woman 3, but that's been unconfirmed for now. The only actual quote from Gadot has been her saying how she wants to make a third movie "to have a nice closure.", so take that as you will. Edited June 29, 2022 by TheBatstan Quote

THELEGOBATMAN Posted June 30, 2022 Posted June 30, 2022 There are still two Super Heroes set numbers left - 76222 and 76224. Quote

The director's got multiple upcoming films beside that, including Rogue Squadron from star wars (though that seems to be dead in the water now) Either way, to state the obvious, the DCEU is a mess still. 4 hours ago, BrickBob Studpants said: Those three sets are allegedly Spidey-themed, so the catalogue probably refers to the Flash set after all "you give me hope... you take it away" Quote
Do1633 Posted July 4, 2022 Posted July 4, 2022 Don't know if the set was leaked anywhere before this (only saw minifigure pictures) but the set started turning up in stores. (Admins- this isn't against the rules, right? Box pictures found at stores are fair game, correct?) https://www.reddit.com/r/lego/comments/vri7wu/is_this_new_found_in_old_town_san_diego/ Quote
The Pearson Posted July 4, 2022 Posted July 4, 2022 It has a new box design. I think that bodes well for the theme, you know, picking up a bit. Quote
Mandalorianknight Posted July 5, 2022 Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) It's a good design for a juniors set, and includes some recognizable characters (I still don't get why Harley's so popular, to the point that she seems more popular than joker sometimes, but that's not on lego) 4 hours ago, The Pearson said: It has a new box design. I think that bodes well for the theme, you know, picking up a bit. That's a good point. Blue and yellow with the DC logo, not the batman face. This bodes well for the theme indeed.
