Nope. The artist has already stated he knows nothing about the new sets coming. He took his own artistic liberties.

oh, ok. so that was pointless. another thought i had, i love how the javelin looks now but i thought that it looked more like a moc than a lego set. than i realized why, it had no flickfires or spring cannons! i hope lego doesnt mess it up by putting them on.

Javelin has missiles and stuff on the udenrside.

Brickipedia is as abiut trustful as wikipedia is, it is a user edited site. Its relaiblity has really gone down since Brickimedia is going.

That's an unfair comparison. Wikipedia is surprisingly reliable. Change an article and make it wrong, refresh the page two or three times, and whatever change you made will be gone and the page will be locked. Anyway, off-topic

Anyone else a little upset that the Javelin is white? I think grey with silver parts would have been better. The white gives off a NASA vibe and I'm not feeling it.

Yeah, the white doesn't look right to me either. A shade of grey or some type of silver would be ideal. Being a prelim though it's possible that won't be the final color.

It's a prelim pic so the actual set might be.different. But it could be the same so, I'll wait for the official pics.

Seriously, why is the darkseid set more than gorilla grodd? Gorilla grodd has 5 minifigures and big fig, where as darkseid has 4 and a big fig. Grodd has a decent sized jet, a pretty large mech, and a civilian car. Darkseid has a big jet, and a pretty small build for darkseid. That's pretty much 2 1/2 builds for grodd, and 1 1/2 for darkseid

I agree I am more exited for the Darkseid and green lantern sets but the price for the DARKSEID one is outrageous

Not really when you think about A) the amount of pieces and B) the amount of new moulds in the set. It's very rare that you get so many new moulds in a set, and all of these moulds are exculsive to certain characters and can't be reused. We'll be getting Hawkman's mask, Cyborg's hair/mask, Darksieds big fig torso and I'm guessing new arms for him ( not new hands though ). That's a lot of new pieces that can only be used a couple of times and that's not counting new moulds like Hawkman's wings which can be used over and over again. Each mould costs 100000's of dollars just to make so in all honesty the set is a very good deal.

The funny thing is I'm normally a massive stickler on the cost of a set and will usually wait ages for a good price before I go for it, but all those new elements listed (and the characters they relate to) have completely overruled all my normal purchase perimeters and I know as soon as this one hits the shelves I'm grabbing one!

I like it the way it is. After all, it was nearly white in the TV show and Lego has been known to make things white when the source material is light gray, like they have done with every X-Wing and Snowspeeder since the first editions, so I don't think it'll change much. The only color choice that seems odd is the red on the wings. I guess they felt the need to add some more color. It's not accurate, but it looks good, so I don't mind it, although blue might have been a better choice

We have received prelimanary images for next years sets. If someone would be kind enough to share the images through their Flickr stream.

The prices are unknown for the sets, except for the Green Lantern set we saw at Comic Con, but we have estimates for the rest.

is it just me or does it look as if the javilin can open towards the back so their is more seating for other heroes.

has anyone identified the parts used on the back? I think they look pretty bad on the set.

Looks like these Technic panels to me. Looking at the reference pic I posted above, the ship should be a lot flatter at that part, so I think it's a safe bet that they used those pieces there to make it easy to open and seat some Leaguers inside. However, considering the size of the ship, it probably only fits 2, 3 figs tops (which I guess is enough for the number of heroes in the set, especially since two of them can fly).

Posted

Based on the size of the cockpit, I think that might fit two figs. And then maybe one or two more somewhere in the back, yeah...

Anyway, I've recently been reading the New 52 Justice League comics and they've made me so much more psyched for the sets.

I really hope Darkseid looks the way he does in the Origins volume, like in the picture someone posted a few days back (with a few Leaguers down and Flash approaching Darkseid).

That pose suits him really well if you ask me.

Though if they base Green Arrow's appearance after his New 52 counterpart, that'd be somewhat of a shame, I guess. Since he doesn't have a goatee and weird glasses instead of the domino mask.

But hey, we're still getting Green Arrow ^^

Well, depending on where you look, he still has a more classic mask in new 52. All DC's figures I think has normal mask not glasses.

Posted

Well, not really glasses, I guess.. but I wouldn't call them masks either, not in the classic sense. More like the kind of mask you use when welding something, with glass-like material covering the eyes.

That's what it seemed like to me, at least :sceptic::blush:

yes, but that isn't visible msot of the time. it just looks like the classic mask.

You're talking about this: http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110907002831/greenarrow/images/2/23/Green_Arrow_Vol_5-1_Cover-1.jpg

But the majority of the time it just looks like this: http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/11113/111130781/3708422-5160942569-35220.png

Dc's action figure looks like this: http://www.entertainmentearth.com/images/AUTOIMAGES/DC31307lg.jpg

And lego's comic con green arrow looks like this: http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130712230758/lego/images/7/75/Green-Arrow.jpg

Lego's new version proapbly wont look any more like the glassy style.
