Numbuh1Nerd Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I was just thinking to myself while watching Arrow, when we get an official, wide-release Green Arrow, he had better have a new mold for a boxing glove arrow. Quote

Suspsy Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I'm a little disappointed that it's not Kyle Rayner, but life's life. Though I agree with Cornelius, any Green Lantern would be welcome, so long as they don't give him a car! I'd much prefer Guy Gardner or John Stewart over Hal Jordan. Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I'd much prefer Guy Gardner or John Stewart over Hal Jordan. I'd be cool with any of those three, but Hal just opens up possibilities. Even then, John Stewart isn't quite as relevant anymore. You can purist Guy Gardner pretty easily with Ron Weasley hair and the generic green jacket torso. Quote
kissyfur_ok Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) I'd like to see a sleek speedboat similar to the one Aldrich Killen drives in 76006. And yes, a new Killer Croc figure of any size would be nice. Toss in a standard Lego crocodile as a pet for him. Totally agree with new Batboat and Killer Croc! I modified Aldrich's boat into this bat boat ( ) and think it would work great in a £19.99 set but with a sewer entrance and pet crocodile for killer croc (big fig), rather than another vehicle. What do you think? Edited January 30, 2014 by kissyfur_ok Quote
Dr Leg O Brick Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Any news from Nuremburg? Is it possible we'll see some pictures of the Stratojet/Blackbird? Quote
loveinlego Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 THese sets are great.But the problems are,the riddler chase:Batman,s suit is really old,flashes headpeice is of rubber.Man-bat attack:batman,s suit and the batcopter. Quote
Rinzler Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 They were joking. I can't tell if you are joking as well, Rinzler. No, I am very serious about this Yes, I was joking, but I think i speak for everybody here when I say I really want those sets *first emoticon, nailed it! Quote

I dunno why, but I generally don't have an issue with the rubber headpieces- I actually really like Flash's mask, one of my favorite headgear pieces from this whole line. Batman's suit is (as far as I know) a new print, in that set. Either way I'd rather get it than another black Batman like we get in almost every single other set. Quote
TheBatstan Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I agree with Hrafnblod. It's better to get a new torso than to get probably the 5th or 6th black Batsuit. Besides this new torso (to me at least) looks like 3 other suit torsos besides BTB. 1. Arkham suit 2. New 52 suit 3. A throwback to the 06 suit Quote

It's not necessarily a favorite of mine, but I love the 'fig as a whole. If only they'd given Cap a similar piece... Funnily enough, though, that's the only normalish (non-arctic) Batman I have, so I'm actually looking forwards to getting one of the black-suited ones :P Honestly, as much as I want to see pictures of the new sets, I've got plenty of catching up to do already. I'm okay with not wanting to spend any more money yet :P Quote

Your enthusiasm for the black-suited Batman will be tempered once you get more caught up and have an army of them, though. I still need the blue/grey variant, seem to have missed out on the Batcave.

The Batcave is still available at S@H, brand stores, and I've seen it at Target and Walmart both in the last week. I don't think you've missed it yet. Quote

I don't think you've missed it yet. Oh, nice. Thanks for informing me! I haven't seen it at my local stores in ages so I figured it was gone-- but my local Walmart and Target aren't really the best with their Lego stocking. Hopefully I can budget for it before it's gone. Buuut I also really need Grand Emporium, and who knows how much longer that'll be around... So much Lego, so little time (and money)! Wonder when we'll get Super Heroes pics from Nuremburg, the other themes seem to be getting them now. Edited January 30, 2014 by Hrafnblod Quote
The-Daryl Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Seeing that new LEGO Movie spot featuring Green Lantern actually makes me think maybe he'll be the minifigure included with the DVD/blu release. I mean EVERY other character (from what I've seen in trailers) in that movie is available in some set or polybag (heck, the simpsons house drops onto the road at one point ha!). And every media release seems to include a mini (Clark Kent with batman, Han Solo with Padawan Menace, etc). Some nice pictures coming out of Nuremberg, but haven't seen any SH yet. Was the event just yesterday or is a multi-day thing? Quote
montgocloud Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Seeing that new LEGO Movie spot featuring Green Lantern actually makes me think maybe he'll be the minifigure included with the DVD/blu release. That's the most plausible theory I've heard! I think you've called it, considering the initial rumor of the figure came from a credible source. Quote
SoupOrFishOil Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I think that whatever figure is included with the DVD will be a variant of a more central character, like Emmet or Wyldstyle in their fancy clothes, but it is odd that GL would appear in so much of the movie's marketing (he's even prominent on the poster!) without actually ever being on the market....

Lego-Dark-Knight0518 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I really hope we get something related to Superman. Like the Daily Planet. Quote
Dayton Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I really hope we get something related to Superman. Like the Daily Planet. I hope we get something other then Batman Seriously i do like the figures and all but you can really tell there dragging it out if all of the sets have Batman in it. Like the Flying plane from the steam roller set..... Yeah sure we get there heroes appearing in Batman sets but the last time we had a Non-Batman DC set was in 2011 when TLG launched DC Superheros. Need i say more? Quote

They still could (and most likely will, I think) have a figure with the DVD. If it's Green Lantern, then awesome. I wouldn't be surprised if it's just another Emett or Wildstyle though.

The Bilbo packaging was a Target exclusive in the US, at least. Made it an easy choice of where to buy it for me. The odds of them putting a figure in with movie on Blu-ray is really good considering it's Lego's movie. I do agree that it would more likely be one of the movie's original characters. And frankly, Green Lantern deserves more than being a movie tie-in. He needs a set, preferably with Sinestro. Quote

But he is at least a possibility considering there seem to be no new DC sets on the horizon this year, and he's apparently going to play some semi-meaningful part in the film. The other main characters all appear to be covered by sets/the movie CMF series. I'll be hopeful, but not very optimistic. Green Lantern's about all that could really interest me in the whole Lego Movie thing, I'm not exactly on the boat with that. Quote
HawkLord Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I think DC would have to make a big push to force Lego to include one of their IPs with Lego's own blu-ray movie. This is Lego's moment and they're going to take advantage of it. Quote
Hulk_Smash Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 They could still release GL in a set, but make it a different one then the theoretically comes with the DVD/Bluray Quote
