The following sets are store exclusives, and as such haven't had all their pictures leaked yet:
>70910 Scarecrow's Special Delivery
>70911 Penguin's Limo
>70912Arkham Asylum
>>6020039
Although we do have this image that they released right after the NYCC trailer reveal.
>>6020030
Oooh, does your store already have these suckers in-stock?
>>6020010
>>6020011
>>6020039
And finally, The Joker Ballon Escape, Mr. Freeze Ice Attack, and Scarecrow's Special Delivery come with setpieces that combine into an Ace Chemicals scene.
That's all, Batfolks!
>>6020042
I don't know. I'm heading to work right now
>>6020042
Forget the rest of it, I really want that cop car.

>>6020100
Why does his weight matter for this story ._.
>>6020077
Two Face, Bane bigfig and normal Scarecrow were basically confirmed for the summer wave, I think? There will be 5 more sets so they'll definitely save some big name villains for that wave. Captain Boomerang might be there too if he's not a blindbag.
Also the Penguin limo only comes with Batman and deVito, sadly, the leaker claiming so was validated by the Killer Croc and Riddler set reveals.
>>6020107
You should have seen him. Also we got the sets in the back.
>>6020100
To be fair, I have had that happen at my local toys r us THREE FUCKING TIMES now. They stock the fucking shelves with the new shit, we take it up to the register "oh hur dur, we cant sell those yet! Stacy, go take them off the shelves, who stocked them?"
Had the same shit happen at a target with an amiibo as well. Also the fact that they stick the same sets on their fucking site, and we can order them and they come a few days earlier than street date....its a fucked system.
But I dont rage publicly when it happens, that guy had no excuse for that.
>>6020119
When's the release date on the boxes?
>>6020024
If there's no Orca bigfig in summer wave I will riot.
I bought some TLBM sets at Target. People are finding them there.
Orca is in the CMF series and uses the Shark Suit Guy parts.
>>6020129
I'm sorry, anon.
>>6020148
I have to confess I'm actually pretty casual when it comes to Batman. Has anyone identified these characters yet?
>>6020117
What? How small of a limo is it to only have two minifigs?
>>6020147
Most of it is out November 27. Arkham is exclusive to TrU, and is due the first of January.
Still no official word on the CFM wave.
>>6020127
I believe next week or black friday
>>6020152
First row is all Bat suits.
Second row is

It's going to be like $500 isn't it.
Nice, a thread for Lego shills. Tell me, Lego shills, does Lego always make a good jewing? How is business doing for them this year?
>>6020042
Really wanna see the other side.
Does it fold shut?
>>6020148
Isn't the top right Batman from the Dimensions pack?
>>6020157
hold up.
I thought these sets weren't coming out till 2017.
Are you telling me I can get the Scuttler for Christmas?
>>6020201
Looking that way.
>>6020202
>Christmas list revision incoming
You think Lego might want to advertise that...
>>6020201
Possibly. I remember LEGO movie sets came out in November or December

>>6020148
Hey everyone this is real, this is a super early development photo. They match the ones in the trailers so stop saying it's fake, the series has been changed. The final one has Pink Power Batgirl and The Calculator plus more.
>>6020230
>obvious fake

Neat. Would we also get Nightwing in it or is that too much of a spoiler?
>>6020182
go back to /pol/ if you want to talk about that.
Is it better to sell full sets or individual pieces on bricklink?
Kinda crazy to have put so much painstaking thought into making these as small/poseable as possible, only to see Lego drop all the new "easy mode" parts the following year.
>>6020320
Gonna need a hundred million of those Mr Freeze hands as soon as they're out
>>6020024
I'm so glad I waited on buying a killer croc set
this one is way better
>>6020320
I think they look better for it

How much is it to kiss you right in the beautiful mouth
Space guy from the last general. Just ran up to 5 below to get my little sis some early Christmas gifts, and wouldn't you know, most of the wave one Dimensions packs were in there. So I snagged myself a Benny.
I gotta say though, Lego is fucking dirty including an instruction manual that doesn't even show you how to build the fucking ship. Just a "lol fuk u kid get the game first". Like, really? What's a kid supposed to do if they bought the packs in anticipation for the game and they aren't skilled enough to reverse engineer the model?
>>6020260

I never knew, I always assumed Lego had gone 'robotic motorbikes with projectiles -> robots with projectiles -> just robots (Bionicles)'.
I guess the canister styles could have tipped me off, but still.
post childhood gems and yfw they will never have a LEGO theme or set
AcceleRacers
The X-Files
Starsky and Hutch
>>6020124
That's usually the overnight crew. I work at retail and they ALWAYS open the boxes with huge stickers that say "DO NOT OPEN UNTIL X DATE" and push that stuff to the floor. Sometimes I wonder if they can even read at all.

He's not in the CMF series or any sets.

Aw yeah, Lego Worlds is getting better and better!
>>6020323
What are you gonna do with it Anon?
>>6020368
I found that also strange.
I wouldn't cost much to print that instructions
>>6020519
I'm assuming anon will make minifig scaled mechas or just robots.
>>6020391
Never heard of this mayor, but she looks good as general business woman
>>6020368
All kids have smart phones nowadays so they can just google it
>>6020158
Amazing detective work, anon. Thanks for your time and effort.
Hmm. I might not entirely pass on this CMF series after all.
>>6020519
Just gonna keep building bots, but having a dedicated hand piece with a pin HOLE connection (rather than a pin like the giant minifigures have) provides a lot more flexibility at this small of a scale.

>>6020570
>them dsl
>>6020585
This is actually a finished version unless I go back and fix the face/make models with different hair.
Inspiration soft-dies a lot, I got stuck on the arms and thighs a while back and stopped working on it, but the spike piece got me to rebuild the shoes and having a bunch of other new bits gave me some pretty good ideas for the rest.
It's pretty poseable, just tricky because parts of the hips are floating due to LDD limitations (minifig neck brackets don't "click" onto technic axles even though they'd stay in place irl, so posing the legs requires a lot of weird methods. Shoulders/elbows/hips/knees are all double-jointed so the range is good, hips are a pain because a bunch of silhouetting pieces have to move every time the limbs move, so I haven't done any complicated stuff with it yet though it should be capable.
>>6020457
Release date on this?
I have a mighty need.
It's also odd, but the two minifigs look like my girlfriend and I.
To the point that I already use that hair for her, and a similar hair for me.
>>6020590
ikr? I love minifig rollerskates. The model's so old they only came in black when I started
>>6020580
Me and my dad used to watch his old VHS tapes all the time, Starsky and Hutch was one of my favorites.
And come to think of it, looking at all the old franchises in Dimensions now, it seems possible
>>6020457
This looks like it has eight of the new towball-and-bar pieces in dark bley, am I wrong?
>>6020342
$267.45
>>6020453
>>6020457
Fuck are they minimal or what.
In my opinion it is a huuuge step down from pic related, particulary the beach house.
>>6020453
The turtle is awesome though.
>>6020117
What were the exact set leaks for the summer wave?
>>6020335
$35 for Clayface? I'm going all in man. There's no CCBS in the foreseeable future, so I'm down to drop on this theme.
>>6020677
Yeah, I hope we get spoiled with some 60 and upwards buildings in the summer. The low price is mic, but I want modular jrs and these look just...blah.
>>6020010

>>6020260

>>6020776
Pretty obviously Catman, guy.
The chest icon even looks like Catman's scratches.
>>6020785
why is catman yellow batman?
>>6020810
I'd assume he's a wannabe or perhaps turned villain because everyone confuses him for Batman/thinks he's a cosplayer.
"Look, it's Batman!" "No, for the last time, its Catman! C'mon, guys. Seriously."

>Starsky and Hutch

>>6020291
Both have positives. Full sets tend to go up in value over time and are easier to keep track of in inventory. Single parts are cheaper so people will impulse buy stuff and you can slowly pay off the price of a set that you used parts from. I'd say that it matters a lot what set you're planning on piecing out if it is worth parting out.

It requires some tweaking near the valves to get the hoses routed nicely without kinks, but the only messy-looking part is under the turntable. It looks like all the hoses are being sucked in.
>>6020965
Any elves set is more adventure than teen drama, so those should be fine. A bunch of friends sets are entrepreneurial. Everyone wants to own an ice cream truck or online bow shop on no-etsy.

If you are so damn smart, how come your English sucks so bad? It's one of the easiest languages to learn and all the leading science papers and basically anything relevant happens in English. You should know this. Most importat of all, if you're so smart why are you on 4chan, on /toy/ and specifically on /lg/? Huh? Why?
Remember that Kickstarter where there was a Moon Man head? Looks like they will not do Moon Man because he's used as a ''racist symbol''.

>>6021228
>implying americans have good English
that's funny, because I am not murican, nor do I come from a native English-speaking country. Check and mate, fuckface. I simply think that in a world dominated by English speakers, learning the language is the easiest way to get around.
I am not implying I speak/write it perfectly, but I do just fine, and I wouldn't mix up "to" and "too", then self-proclaim myself too smart for the plastic crack.
>>6021228
>it doesn't phase me.
You mean "it doesn't face me", but that's OK, mangled phrases are a diamond dozen and you shouldn't cry into spilled milk. Just take those anons' insults with a grain assault.

Honestly, the villain line up is so hilariously varied it would produce sets that are a cross between the ultra agents and chima / ninjago. A chrome good guy & space ship / bird and a crazy ass bad guy contraption.

>>6021304
Alright, coming along good
>>6021309
Yea, I love how dynamic it's looking so far. Looking at the box, it has two claw arms...but I want to make it sort of like a dreadnought from warhammer, one claw arm and one gun arm..going to try to modify a gun arm instead... Two claws seem redundant...I'll see when I get to that point..

>>6021331
Thanks. Going to have fun with this one.. Hope you can see the detail on the set. It's pretty unique..
>>6021337

>>6021341
>>6021354
gah, sorry for the shit quality of some of these.. taken from a camera phone...
>>6021356
You're still in the top 50%
>>6021361
This is weird...you're an anon who's not bitching, insulting and or an asshole...
Used a black back drop, hopefully this makes it easier to see... Check it out, I assembled both claws, but I'm trying to craft some sort of assault rifle on the right arm.
>>6021369
You should lose the gray wooden barrel and make something underslung that extends back behind the elbow
>>6021374
on which arm? the one with the "cannon"? Perhaps I can keep both claws, and add the cannon as an underslung mounted weapon...
>>6021377
I meant the right arm, but that's a cool idea
>>6021380
Anyway to get a cool drop down underarm gun thing like this?
I don't know if you've ever seen Trigun, but this guy has a robotic arm, that works completely normal, but when needed the hand will drop down and the forearm will become a gun with the lowered hand now gripping the trigger.
Seeing your arm cannon reminded me of it.
>>6021384
>>6021386
>>6021380
Check out pic related...it's something that I was going for..If you look closely you can see the underslung weapons underneath the claws
>>6021227
Blame /pol/
>>6021388
>>6021395
>>6021395
>>6021396
Sort of glad I got it finished atleast. Going to play around with the underslung weapon idea, but I'll have to wait until later...getting tired.
>>6020570
How's the hip articulation?
>>6021227
odd reason, since "we don't want to get sued into the poor house by McDonalds" would be a more suitable one
>why are copyrighted characters even eligible for this?
I get telling /pol/ to go back to containment, but not treading on the IP of a major company is a more valid reason
>>6021396

I really like the idea of that bit on the right as a mini harvester
>>6021406
I went into it a little in >>6020599, basically each hip is double-jointed but the surrounding pieces have to be re-posed a bit as well so it has odd hang-ups.
I'm going to try some more complicated poses (miiiiiiight be able to do Basic Instinct) but I have a lot on my plate between work and cutting through medical delaying tactics at the moment

(Any thought? I know they will be massive as fuck, but I like that idea, like his goal is way bigger than he can handle. Also, I dont like having to use those tubes to attach the claws to the arms, any smaller solutions?)

Nah, they look too stiff. Liked the cones into stud with holes tough, thats why I incorporated that. I am building these for my homebrewed doc ock fig.
>>6021597
Did those tan chains come from a knock off set? if so, which one?
Wish there was a database like bricklink for knockoffs, theres so many awesome as fuck parts and recolors that they have available, not to mention all the trans-whatever color parts they have.
>>6021617
Interesting that you gave him the 2012 head.
Honestly I think the 2014 Ock is still the best version (besides the tentacles). I really like how it incorporates the comics' green-and-yellow with the coat and tentacle harness that the movie version popularized.
>>6021567
>I dont like having to use those tubes to attach the claws to the arms, any smaller solutions?
Why don't you replace the 30552 pieces with 44301? Then you'll have more options for attaching the claws.

I love this image so much. Not only does the thumbnail legit fool people but the ziploc bag that are used so often on cracklink really finishes it off.
Why the enormous blue wall though, that is some serious classic space happening right there.

Still too bulky and too many angles. I wish the female stud with peg on it came in other colors besides gold and trans clear. It would be perfect, even if it just came in black.

>Why the enormous blue wall though, that is some serious classic space happening right there.
The image is probably an actual Bricklink order that just so happened to include a bunch of the weed pieces.
>>6021619
Chains are from this ethnic pirate set.
I get quite a choice of brands, but I tend to buy Enlighten because it's the cheapest and it's the only brand that turns over and gets restocked with new sets.
Okay lg, does anyone have any experience with lego tabletop? I built some fleets.... Pic related and I am looking for the best rules set to use to play. The fleets were built in mfz io scale, but after reading the latest rulebook a few times I have reached the conclusion. That it would be hard to teach to my opponent... i was thinking maybe brikwars might also be okay?
General lego table top feedback great elgyem appreciated.

>>6021898
I can tell you right now looking at it that theres a pretty expensive part used.
Ring with a towball. I needed two red ones and there was like 15 of them total for sale on bricklink. Paid like $4 each for them. Only seller in the US.
>>6020573
I remember this one
>>6021701
I don't know them really, but they look nice.
>>6021857
Just use the CMF HAZMAT Guy suit.
Or pay someone $50 to print his symbol on his chest.
>>6021953
Gray and yellow maxifig hands are pretty cheap, though. It's just the red ones that are rare.
>>6021970
I stand corrected. Still, when I found the store in the US with the red ones, guy had three of them. I bought all three even though I only needed two. Figure if the parts that rare, ill find a use for it SOMETIME.
>>6022021
I do that too.
Building a cool moc AND integrating a mad expensive part in it makes me feel decadent.
>>6021964
Nah, the colors and actual parts are accurate, aside from the blank torso. I found that Sinestro minifig though. Might use either that or the Chimp shirt from the Spped Racer Spritle minifig.
>>6022050
>Speed
But yeah, I think the Chimp one might work.
>>6022055
Fuck, I need that shirt.
Ive got a bad tick with printed lego shirt torsos. Sadly, my holy grails are from the kids day minifig set. The shirt with a minifig face taking up all of it....
>>6021701
Lemmy is spot on
>>6022065
I think I did pretty good with the drummer too. Sadly no third party makes a minifig scale rickenbacker bass (one company was making BC Rich guitars, but stopped and the well has dried up, cant even find them in europe or on euro ebay), otherwise he would be dead on.

initial impression is that it's severely lacking in keyboard inputs. having to navigate through menus with your mouse for every action is way too time consuming.
also i'm assuming this is a weird bug but whenever you select a piece, you can't select another one unless you delete it first. very irritating.
the parts list and pricing seems incredibly useful, but if building remains such a big pain in the ass I would not consider it worth using.
>>6022733
>having to navigate through menus with your mouse for every action is way too time consuming.
So just like ldd then?
>you can't select another one unless you delete it first. very irritating.
Well be sure to report it so they can fix it.
Also, care to post some screenshots for us?
Anyone have the marvel leaks from CM4Sci?
>>6022749
>So just like ldd then?
yeah pretty much. i guess I should've explained that I rarely do digital building, so those complaints weren't in comparison to LDD, just general complaints.
>>6022750
Yeah. They seem to import pretty well, though sometimes pieces can get a little messed up when being converted since Bricklink's library is more specific than LDD's.

I have the same issue with them. Not just the style and size, but rather that they are all so expressionless. The only variety between them are the number of eyelashes and "tattoos" surrounding them, and in the queen's case size. Different expressions would have conveyed personality and given them more diversity.

I'm just really pissed at how clean the builds are and how Lego hasn't used the head, tails, or mixel joint limbs on the fucking Ninjago dragons. It really irks me how clean the Elves ones are but they suffer from the cutesy printing, and Ninjago could fix that but Lego just says "Nah, fuck it" so we just get fugly brick built heads and wings with unsightly technic ball limbs.
>>6023354
>tails
Meant wings.
>>6023266
you're correct.
>>6023354
In the early days of lego we had specific ninjago dragon heads.
Though i find the way they are doing ninjago dragons now much better. Just molding new pieces and printing them is really lazy and does not feel like what lego is all about.

>>6022455
Where do you get those sugar skull heads? They're awesome.
>>6023440
eh, I feel the same way most of the time, but I think heads are kind of ok to just go ahead and mold. The brick built ones just look so dumb at that scale and make them look more like weird robots than animals (idk if ninjago dragons are robots or not but you get the idea)

2. It had build in launcher and it was hard to make mouth closed.

I kinda want to buy some because I like the colors and the designs. However, it's clearly girly stuff.

>>6023855
DO IT. Seriously, just call it a planet the Space factions are fighting over. Elves (and Friends for that matter) are just weird-looking aliens!
>>6023855
Just go for it. I myself had some reservations about buying elves sets, since they're "girl toys". But they're, in my opinion, some of the best designed lego sets and have really useful parts.
You just have to get over it and buy what makes you happy, not what makes other people not give you weird looks. I did and i don't regret it.
>>6023855
>What will mom think.
"Why is my son wasting money on toys instead of saving enough money to get his own place"

The only time I build anything these days is if I buy a set, and it's almost always by the book (and even that has slowed down). I own more Lego than I ever dreamed when I was a kid, but I can't bring myself to build anything with them. I get tired just thinking about opening and closing all those containers and bags to dig for pieces. While my collection is nowhere as huge as those I've seen on Youtube, I feel like I had more freedom when I had a limited palette to work with in a single case.
Can a collection ever get too big? Has anybody found a happy medium somewhere in between the two extremes?
>>6023855
Elves has to be my favorite theme going right now. Castle was always my number one theme, especially the forest themes. There's a good balance of comfy locations and it's got as much adventure as the guys themes. They're well worth it. Aira is my waifu.

You sound exactly like me right up until the last line of greentext (and the part about a Lego store being nearby). I forced myself to start getting better at making cars because I ran a lot of games that involved cars and thought it would be more entertaining to look at six-wides instead of four-wides. Now I like making cars. I'm still not very good at it, but I like the process of making them and driving them around the table making engine noises.
If you really do still feel drawn to the plastic crack, just focus on building something until you're satisfied with it. Why not try one of the monthly challenges in the OP? Make a brickbuilt turkey or something.
>>6024098
I feel a similar way.

>>6024098
after i sorted my collection i found myself building a lot of different stuff in much quicker succession and higher quality than i did before. Mostly because it took less time to find the parts i needed and in less time could try out a whole bunch of solutions.
The only hurdle i sometimes have is that i'm impatient and want to get something done in non-retarded colours quickly while i just don't have the parts for it. Lately i haven't built that much new larger stuff. That's mostly because i already used a lot of the cool pieces i have in my favourite colours. Whenever i get a set but especially when i order something from bricklink i immediately binge and spend hours trying out different cool things to do with those parts.
I now for the first time in my life have a few sets unopened waiting. But that's mostly because i now like it less and less to just have stock lego sets around. (except for stuff like the monsterhunters hearse and modular cinema wich are amazing) I bought a starwars set just for the gray parts and bonus points it got me and the scooby mystery machine i want to mod into a six wide build if possible, but i just don't have the parts to do that so i'm procrastinating.
What could help is to start a bigger project. Start off by thinking out what you would like to build. Sketch out a design on paper of what you would like and start figuring out bit by bit, like small challenges, how to interpret all the details in legobricks. Then prototype parts out with your collection without bothering with a coherent colourscheme. Then look up what parts exist in what colours and whatnot. Then maybe even try to work out the thing in LDD or something.
This is a big undertaking and i haven't done it often. But once you have some cool builds i find myself constantly thinking of ways to improve them even more and let the build evolve.
