Re: LEGO Batman from The LEGO Movie gets Own Big Screen

Which is strange, because it's a good bet those coattails will be awful. There's been a batman movie that wasn't awful? :think: (That's rhetorical btw. Not getting into that debate here) :silent: Seems Warner have now stated that Lego batman is for 2017, Lego Movie 2 is going to be 2018 with a furt...

Re: LEGO Batman from The LEGO Movie gets Own Big Screen

No. The Hollywood reporter article says; Warners is eyeing a 2017 release for the spinoff, possibly even on the original date for Lego Movie 2. The next Lego movie to be released is Ninjago, due to open Sept. 23, 2016. The Lego Movie sequel will now presumably be released after 2017. It basically lo...

Re: LEGO Batman from The LEGO Movie gets Own Big Screen

Wow way to hammer a lame joke to death. They were seriously pushing it to the limit in The LEGO Movie. There's nowhere else to go but down. Batman is so lame. :problem: I know, don't like it, don't watch it. I'm just annoyed that something so niche is being pushed ahead of The LEGO Movie sequel. :do...

Re: What's your favorite character from The LEGO Movie?

Don't have just one favourite. I liked the Bricksburg citizens. Sherrie Scratchenpost, Surfer Dave and Larry the Barista. The Octan HQ computer. I thought Bad Leroy the cat was outstanding.

Of the main characters, Benny. With Unikitty and Batman as my least favourites.

First thing I noticed was the pair of scissors accessory in the smallest set. I see it's also in the regular friends line in a hair salon set. Totally adding a barber shop to my table town now. Only other piece that interests me is the oversized clam/cockle shell piece in gold and white. That'll wor...

Re: 2015 LEGO Ultra Agents Pictures: 70166 70167 70168 70170

Antimatter seems like a cross between Emperor Palpatine Ronan the accuser and Doctor Doom. Looks good though. I was a bit put off by the wave 1 villains. These seem a bit less outlandish. I'm a little confused about the Spyclops character. One of the Agents villains was also called Spyclops and had ...

There is the powdered wig from the collectible minifigures Revolutionary soldier. That's a start. and we get a new Do rag hat piece. Also the saw fish head is a redo. they've remodelled the saw section with a top ridge to make it stronger and less snappable. There's also the brick facet brick in dar...

Some lovely minifigures. Revisiting original Pirates is a neat idea. Always had a soft spot for Redbeard and crew. I'm really pleased they've been updated.

Oh, I just spotted something odd. I've missed a fair bit of the Chima show so I don't know where we are with that. But in the released set 70146: Flying Phoenix Fire Temple, The orange Tiger is Tormak. Yet in set 70222: Tormak's Shadow Blazer, Tormak is suddenly a black Panther . HUH????? :what?: An...

Movie comes out in 2016 I think. Well, according to Wikipedia it does. I think I like this wave. certainly the anacondrai stuff. The purple and dark tan with dark blueish grey looks good. the minifig headgear looks great and the minifig assortment is ok. I kind of like that these seem to be humans t...

Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my! :lol: Wait, let me edit in a real comment. Love the tiger command vehicle and Tormak's shadow blazer. Orange and black witll always get a thumbs up from me. The minifig prints seem a lot sharper than previous waves. Shame the ultimate phoenix relies so heavily on t...

Re: LEGO Movie 2015 Spring Sets (70817 70818 70819)

At least the melting room was on the cheaper end of things though. I'm not really a Unikitty fan. Ok as characters go and for what she represents, but more irritating than cute for my tastes. I got the regular one and the astrokitty variant but that's enough for me. I also find it annoying that you ...

OMG, Sharks with missiles! That's just awesome. That trans red cockpit canopy is a joy to behold. Gotta get me some of those. Overall, I'm not terribly impressed with these sets. The Tuktuk truck and banana vendor is an odd addition and kind of tells us where Lego are aiming the sets. It's all a bit...

Re: LEGO Movie 2015 Spring Sets (70817 70818 70819)

True. another chance to get regular Vitruvius would be good. I counted up and there will be ten variants of Unikitty by spring next year. Slight overkill methinks. Still at least Lego haven't gone down the route of flocked or chromed or transparent Unikitty. When that happens you'll know they're lit...

Re: 2015 LEGO Speed Champions Pictures: 75899 75908 75909 75

There's new wheel arches if that's what you mean.. These taper off towards the bottom unlike the existing deep ones. Which gives us three types for regular cars now, including the short one which came in with the city forest police sets iirc. I keep looking at these and marvelling at the way 7 studs...

Re: 2015 LEGO Speed Champions Pictures: 75899 75908 75909 75

First thing I noticed was the yellow snowboard piece. Not an F1 fan at all. Hate the look of those cars. It's disappointing that there's yet another Ferrari truck taking up set space from possible inclusions as nice as the non-F1 cars. I'm impressed with the looks of those. The Porsche sets will be ...

Re: #71007 LEGO Series 12 Collectable Minifigures

Got the Space miner, Gamer, Pizza delivery guy, Piggy suit guy, Lifeguard and Prospector. Good stuff. The space miner has an awesome torso under his armour. Though the drill bit in orbit logo on the armour shoulder was misaligned on mine. Slightly annoying but no biggy. He has an awesome helmet. The...

Dino (hunters) had all new molds. Though those will undoubtedly be utilised for any Jurassic world sets. And with a small number of new parts combined to create other dino's. Dino (hunters) had the best dinos yet and with different colours and deco they'll be perfect. Though as it's a licensed theme...
