(MOC) Arkham Aslume (Eurobricks Batman 2024 rumors and discussion thread)

[ARC2149Nova]

Excellent job, my friend. Though I dare them to keep us contained! 

Who are the guards, btw? You might've said, but I missed it.

Ok, if you think I might go insane ( which I don't find likely) are there specific pages I should read? If you don't think I should read all of the 2024 DC threads than I most likely won't.

Oh, I'm joking about the going insane. Others have given specific pages- though to be honest a lot of it really just didn't have context and was us just being nuts.

1) man, what if they met? I wonder if they'd get on

2) Alright, thanks man I don't need anyone to know about all the child forgery charges

I think they'd get on well. Both green, both like batman, though Turtle might take offense at Riddler's enjoyment of Superman.

Okey, I'll see about reading those then. By the way if you ever add me you have to make my figure be a red futuron minifig except with my profile pic on a white torso instead of the red futuron print. 

I'll do my best- I have nothing planned at the moment, but I'll likely expand in the future.

@Mandalorianknightlove it. I appreciate the detail and acknowledge that there actually are people who would have me in a cell if it meant less DC chatter (my wife springs to mind). Whilst in my cell I shall be lamenting and/or gloating about the only Lego Tower of Fate in existence.

Glad you like it, I'm sure all of us have some people who would enjoy letting us sit in a cell for a bit to wear out some fandom chatter.

  I wonder if my cell has those luxury padded walls. Great job, looks like the Clone patrol caught almost all the wedding guests! I hope your computer behaves and we can see more renders !!!

Ah man IIRC you just had like the captain carter shield because Britain. (Did I miss any user wedding guests? I thought I got them all)

If my computer behaves I'll try to get renders of the cells out, as well as a prison van GWP with some missing inmates and our new Seatron friend.

Love the MOC! If this was the 2024 LEGO set, I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

…which leads me to my first of 200,000 corrections (with a million well on the way): I would be hyped for an Aslume set, but I’m not for a $400 Asylum. Mainly, it comes down to the potential minifigs in either hypothetical.

Second! “Enigmatic” - difficult to interpret or understand; mysterious (according to New Oxford). I stand by the former interpretation, given my vocabulary and my erratic behavior online, but the latter? I don’t have that much mystery about me, but you do you.

Third! …yeah, I’ve not done much to warrant a sentence, as was established when I tried being Man for a minute there.

Fourth! the sword is inaccurate! It must be a samurai sword because that was all was available on LEGO Life when I created my avatar and persona that would become the Swordy of Eurobricks.

Fifth! uh, through Two-Hundred-Thousandth! Everyone else looks great, the little details are brilliant, and the greebling of the build is immaculate. Appreciate all the references to our lore. Not a correction, but it covers pretty much everything else I have to say.

Great job!

1. Yeah I just couldn't find anything on you, I was even like going back and reading your comments and they're all just too reasonable.

2. That was a joke about your avatar being an all-black spaceman

4. This will be fixed in the future

5. thanks!

Very well done, love all the silly references included here!

To clarify tho, Turtle was neither my master nor my apprentice. He was a mere rival that needed to be dealt with. He‘s still at large, but I will feast on the contents of his turtley shell soon enough!!

Thanks! 

So turtle is the (animated series, not TPM) Maul to your Palpatine.

@Mandalorianknight Would be funny if they were the focus of like an imaginary GWP for this where ILoveSeatron is like one of those people obsessed with true crime, reading up on all our insanity just for kicks

He will be included in any potential expansions for sure.

1 hour ago, THELEGOBATMAN said:

This is incredible, I love all the details your Aslume includes. Awesome stuff all around, it's actually impressive how much lore we have combined in just a single thread. Love it @Mandalorianknight. 

Let's put it up on LEGO Ideas and make it an official set! We can do it, this will be absolutely peak. (This is the bright Kryptonite that will ignite the future of LEGO DC!)

Thank you!
I wish we could (I mean, if I removed some of the branding, I guess we literally could- though you and nostalgia's figures would have to become different- it just wouldn't win)

One of us escaped already, they'll never stop us once Absolute Batman escapes!

Clone-O-Patras. His profile picture's clones look like noblemen or councilmen to me, so I gave him some armored up guys as guards based on the armor one of his profile picture characters is wearing.

15 hours ago, CloneCommando99 said:

Wow. This is very really good. I love how you gave the prison both Arkham and SW aesthetics.

And thanks for for not listing all my crimes on my rap sheet. Shorter sentence means that I can break everyone else out.

Did @PGBQW and @thephantasm get released previously? Or were they the rats?!!!

Also how will Turtle make his escape? Will a rancor get involved? Will the mysteries of the Aslume be answered?

I would love to see a sequel.

(I am sorry for the loss of your rational thought, by reading enough pages to make all the details)

July-August and October is where it gets good.

Thanks! Though aside from the CloneOpatras any SW aesthetic is completely just from me being a creature of SW habit, and not intentional.

Shh... don't let the mods know!

AGH! I kept scrolling through trying to make sure I didn't leave anybody out- Nova and Murdoch snuck in as recently picked-up inmates- but I knew I was going to forget someone. They'll be in the prison van GWP (Funny that I've gone from "I don't have future plans for this" to a specific GWP in mind).

Turtle's already made it out. Perhaps a future expansion will include TheRiddlerDC in his cell.

Oh man it's worse than that this is all just ingrained into my head, I looked through a couple people's posts to make rap sheets for them but pretty much everything else was just living rent-free in my head. Am I stupid?

Is that all there is of me, British?  Four out of the six inmates in that wing of the asylum are British! But I can dig having the Carter shield, it'll come in handy in the inevitable prison riot. 

@TheBatstan is the only Eurobricks member who's at the wedding and not in the prison. (Ironic that in the wedding @legoturtle is the only caged member, whereas here he's the only one free.) @TheBatstan might not be the most frequent poster, but he did make the best post of the thread which earned him his seat on the wedding guest list.

Look man I gave you Kallus and Dr. Who already I was running out of aspects. Britain is a big part of the aslume lore, you're one of the main proponents of it, I made a judgement call.

Yup, that's fair, I agree it's the best post and he deserves a spot. Alright we've moved from a prison van GWP to a new wing of the prison with the following members: PGBQW, thephantasm, Iloveseatron, thebatstan, max_lego, and calebcold.

@Mandalorianknight What do you mean by "rap sheet"??? BTW You got the wrong guy when it comes to leaking the Seatron prototypes! Yes, I know you're just joking.

Edit. Pls send an acceptance message if you include me. Also, what's the name of your group, and what's the name of @Swordy's group?

Edit#2. Leaking Seatron prototypes is only one crime, you gotta find another one befor you add me.

It's good but let's not pretend Turtle alone doesn't have like 7 better than it (though one could argue counting him is cheating)

I think Redhoodpug is kinda an underated aslume member, he doesn't have the big flashy moments like the rest of us but I think him being the most sane inmate gives us important perspective that makes things better (I think one of the things that made me laugh most in the past year was in the middle of the LEGO city conspiracy where he said it was a step up from the Jonkling days but made him feel like he was walking into someone elses drug trip)

A rap sheet is slang for a document listing someone's crimes, used in police stations.

There's no formal groups to accept you into, it's all just jokes from the forum. The DC rumors and discussion thread is where we're all making the jokes from.

Yes he is, as is Novabricks. They don't have cells but are in the render walking into the building.

Yeah exactly counting turtle is cheating he's not a mere forum member he's the physical embodiment of the alsume.

I agree, that's one of the reasons he got the coveted Tower of Fate as his cell minibuild.

The second line was in response to Renny talking about RedhoodPug, sorry.

Good, it'll be useful in the prison rio- I mean, what shield? You're getting Venom Horse. That was 100% always the plan, I have no idea what you're talking about.

I don't get this one- is that not a term across the pond? I just googled it to make sure I didn't somehow generate the term, it's 100% what it's called over here.

His voice actor is, yes he's from Oxfordshire. But the actual character isn't because Star wars is set a long time ago, before the isle of Britain was formed by the sinking of doggerland

What do you mean by GWP???? All I could find online was "gift with purchase,""global warming potential,"or"good work plan." I didn't think any of those fit, so would you tell me what your definition is pls?

This is actually what I refer to whenever I saw GWP. Except for when I'm designing a (non-lego) refrigerator, in which case I mean gift with purchase. (Joking of course)

You haven't read the entirety of the main DC 2024 thread, I see. Consider it a rite of passage, after that all the secrets will be revealed.

I probably would be a lot more frequent if Lego treated DC better instead of fully committing myself to the aslume. But I am extremely flattered that I was included in the wedding (though I still can't seem to figure out which one is supposed to be me in the wedding MOC, having more than one Batman minifigure there is like I'm the Spider-Men pointing meme now).

And I'm glad you liked that reply, it was the only fitting thing that matched my shock to find out turtle was stupid enough to make a new account and practically beg the mods to Old Yeller him again. Now to find another image for when he makes the inevitable third account...

I will eventually, but I work full time, so realistically this is only something I can put much time into on the weekends.

Aslume is part of a joke that started in the Batman Arkham game community. I think the first one was a post on one of the reddits or something saying "Why doesn't Man (referring to Batman) just call the justice league for help? Is he stupid?", which snowballed into the entire community becoming a hotbed of jokes involving misspelling character names (Man, Jonkler, Ham Aslume), questioning motivations, and asking if characters were stupid. 

My personal favorite one of these, which a coworker showed me before I'd really seen any of the aslume stuff, was "What do you guys think the J brand on Jason Todd's cheek stands for? My friend thinks it stands for Jesus because he too came back from the dead, but I think it stands for Jarkham Knight."

Okay, got it. Yea, I doesn't matter to me wether you add on the aslume or not, I was just curious.
