LEGO Superheroes 2012 Rumours & Discussion

I set an email to Lego about somethings and got

The response of they can neither confirm or deny that Bruce will be included or cap will have wing printing

[CM4Sci]

After having multiple eyegasms at the new LDD, I thought of something. What if they used the Alien's head for the Spiderman figure? It's the same style, all it'd need it some new printing..

So...maybe? I remember E-mailing them about that fake Theed Palace set (anyone remember that?) and they wouldn't confirm or deny THAT either, even though it was obviously fake. I suppose that if you asked them if Hawkeye was included in the Cosmic Cube set, the wouldn't confirm or deny that either. So really, not much help and I'm sure all I'm doing to making this more confusing.

You mean the CMF Alien, correct? If so, I think that might work, for Spidey at least. Probably not for Venom or Carnage, if they are made that is.

Yes, the S6 one.

Not half bad. It's certainly a possibility.

[CorneliusMurdock]

Yes, the S6 one.

It might work but I'm not overly fond of it. It doesn't look like a minifig in a mask to me since the head is shaped the way it is.

Clever idea, I think the neck looks a little long though. I can't say if I like it or not, but I like the idea. Maybe if I saw it with printing I'd change my mind.

[deskp]

I prefer a normal printed minifig head for spidey, it doesent change shape after putting on hes mask.

They probably would say confirm or deny to hawkeye or deadpool to the respective sets they come in! By the way , I do get what youre saying. I don't think we are supposed to know the minifigs of wolverine and Loki sets, but they got leaked early by hamleys! But this does make me think that Cap will have wing printing and there will be a Bruce Banner fig!!!!!!!!!

You thought that before

[DJ Bricks]

You thought that before

I meant my faith has increased!

[Ayden]

As Solomon Grundy or Bane, I assume?

Aha! Now I hadn't thought of that! though it is a wonderful Idea.

I was thinking mount a lego octopus in place of the head and it might make a decent lego scale cthulhu.

Could also be used to make other monster, MR Hyde maybe?

Hmm...that's what it was! I was wondering, I thought it might of been Bane or Croc.

That looks okay and it could work, but it would make Spiderman look different from the other minifigs with the round head.

Also, there would be even more complaints about oversized heads. At least Iron Man has an excuse.

[Brickity]

Is Black Widow's hairpiece there?

[SoupOrFishOil]

Is Black Widow's hairpiece there?

Where? I don't think we've seen her minifigure yet. I'd think that they'd use Dastan's hair though. Maybe in a different color, but I forgot what color her hair is.

It's dark red, and i think that they will make a new piece for her.

Yes, the Hulk mold seems to have a lot of possibilities. I would love to see a B:AC Bane or Solomon Grundy with that piece. It seems like it might be getting quite a bit of use in future years. I could also see that piece being used as a troll as well.

Oh my bad, LDD.

Also, has anyone else noticed that the four dc females' lips are *almost* the same on the 4 figures?

Disappointing

[DJ Bricks]

I think I like wolverines look

[The Lego Mamba]

Does anyone know if there will be any Dark Knight Rises sets coming out?

[The_Chosen_1]

Does anyone know if there will be any Dark Knight Rises sets coming out?

According to Brickipedia:

At least one set based on the The Dark Knight Rises film is expected to be released in the summertime of 2012 as part of the Super Heroes theme.

Take it for what you will, but I seem to remember a flier for TDKR a few months ago that featured the licensees, LEGO being one of them. Does anyone who knows what I'm referring to have a link to that picture?

[TheLegoDr]

I'm hoping there are Dark Knight Rises sets. I am waiting for those instead of buying the current Batman sets since I am not too impressed with them. It'd be awesome if they released a version of the new "The Bat," a.k.a. the new batwing.

And I am excited to see pictures of Marvel sets. This year will either be really expensive, or lots of Bricklink orders. At the end of 2011 I was thinking it will be expensive, but I have yet to spend any money on Lego.

Disappointing

I didn't notice that Wonder Woman's was, but I did notice that the "Gotham Girls" were. It is disappointing I think, but not as bad as Bruce and Superman being nearly identical.

I hope that the TDKR sets are more in the style of TDK sets, because I don't really like the movie's Bane and I don't want multiples of him, if any. TDKR Catwoman could be useful though. I'd like vehicles based on the movie, but pitted against different villains who haven't appeared yet (like Penguin and Scarecrow) in original scenes (or at least remakes, wouldn't it be great if Scarecrow got a blimp this time?).
