I had already seen yours and it's better in black. I already have a black one though so I'll have to see the camo one properly when I get it. :)

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, all. Here are mine.

6857 - Funhouse Escape - So this seemed to be the most lucrative of the 2012 DC sets. A fresh idea that wasn't explored in 06-08, retailer exclusive, 5 minifigs in a $40 set (two of whom are exclusive). This is a pretty good set for what it is. I just really hate the Batman vehicle in this set. It's too similar in size/look to the one from the Batcave that was released at the same time. This one is far worse. I just wish that they had done something else for a Bat-vehicle or even given Robin a vehicle. The structure itself is very good, with many little play features and traps for Batman and Robin.

6858 - Catcycle - The catcycle was a little bit plain, but effective I guess. I really liked Batman's jetpack - it's something different, and adds dynamic without adding a lot of pieces/cost. The scenery is a little weak, but it gives the set a little something for building and playing. After I saw the preliminary leaked pictures, I was hoping the black-suited Catwoman was a stand-in, and hoped that LEGO had gone with the classic purple or green-suited Catwoman. Of course, that would probably have gotten people's panties in bigger bunches than the purple/orange Two-Face motif.

6860 - Batcave - The Bruce Wayne/Batman transformation elevator is one of the coolest functions ever. The rest of the Batcave is kind of bland. Batman's computer chair is awful and chintzy. Overall, the cave isn't bad, but It would have been nice to really feel like a dark, dank cave. Not just a hideout in who knows where. I like Bane's drill tank. It adds another play element to the set.

6862 - Power Armor Lex - It's hard to complain. I think this one is nearly perfect for the price.

6863 - Batwing Battle - The Batwing feels so lacking. Not in size, but in its detailing. The "wings" are too straight and not curved at the end. There is no landing gear. Even using the simple three-leg folding gear from the small Star Wars ships would have been better than the Batwing resting on top of the batbomb/batmissile. The Batwing should have had the 'bat fins' on the back of it like the Batmobile and the Batboat. The Jokecopter is passable. I don't like the use of the column for the tail of the copter, but overall it looks okay.

6864 - Two-Face Chase - The best of the first wave. I love that they went with the classic comic Two-Face colors. The Batmobile feels solid and sleek and fun to play with. I do like the bank feature, and that it provides playability out of the box. You have good guys, bad guys, and a scene already in place.

76000 - Arctic Batman - I like the direction that LEGO went with the Bathammer. Nice and sleek, and in plan view it has more of a 'bat' shape to it, like the Batwing. I just think that the yellow is overkill and makes it too 'fake-looking'. That's easy to fix though. I wish Mister Freeze had something to ride in/on.

76001 - Tumbler Chase - Well, I kind of have an unfair bias because I dislike the source material. I've never been fond of the Nolan interpretations of the Bat vehicles. This is the only DC superhero set I haven't bought so far and probably won't buy. Bad source material notwithstanding, the vehicles in this set seem too small and 'dumpy'. I don't really have any suggestions for improvement, as this set needed to have been a $60-70 set in order to be done properly.

10937 - Arkham Asylum Breakout - Refreshing to see LEGO creating a licensed set that doesn't rely so heavily on the minifigures for marketability. The build is fantastic and the awesome details are everywhere. Playability is excellent. I'm just not really 'feeling' $160 when I look at this set. Still, a nice design though.

I finally go the Lex armour and decided to go into more detail. I was mega impressed with it at first but saw how some people had modded it, I was a little disappointed. I mean, there isn't any knees! For once, playability is not an excuse. The cockpit doesn't really work and the whole thing isn't as cool as the Dr.Inferno one. I love the colour scheme though, the kryptonite gun is nice as is the back but the legs and torso are a little lacking. Overall, I'm really happy with the purchase though.

I don't think you can compare Luthor's mech to the Dr. Inferno one, simply because the latter is 30 dollars more and has almost double the number of pieces (It's only short by 3!). The knee thing may be a let down, but really to me, Luthor's mech is (Aside from Arkham, which again really can't be compared to the other DC sets due to size) the best of the DC sets so far. You get three exclusive characters all of which are major, and a great mech--one of Lego's best in years--all for a cheap $20.

I didn't really mean to compare them but more just to say that it isn't the best of the mechs that LEGO has produced. BTW, it's not the worst either.

The one thing I like about the whole DC superheroes line is the continuity of the figures and vehicles from the Lego Batman 2 videogame, it is really cool how they are bringing them both together which is a bit rare, they did some stuff mini figures right on the game and would love them to see in real minifigures in the near future so we will see.
