Hmm. I think I'll have to get that Scuttler for all those neat minifigs and hair pieces, and probably the Riddler car as well. It's great to see a massive flesh minifig theme again - there's always a ton of parts I can use.
Missing 70910 Scarecrow's Special Delivery (which we saw in the set instructions images yesterday - retail exclusive), 70911 Penguin's Limo (no images yet - retail exclusive), and 70912 Arkham Asylum (already revealed - TRU exclusive).
EDIT: as RichardAM mentions, also the 20 minifig CMF to be revealed, and the 5 summer sets.

Most of you have seen my modular MOCs and some other city-based stuff, but I wanted to show off something I've been working on for a couple weeks here and there.
I've been wanting to work on a space-base for awhile, but figured I'd reacquaint myself with some smaller pieces first. Plus, they need a way to get there, right? This gave me a way to really test out the various SNOT techniques as well as some sideways-building that I've never tried before.
Don't know what to call it, but I got some inspiration from Interstellar so I'm going to call it a Jump Ranger. Enjoy!

Awesome, reminds me of one of the first MOCs I did years ago my "Nugget" spaceship.

Got 'em all. When will the rest be available? I have a lot of LEGO points I need to use up.

January 1 is the assumption we all have, which means TRU might have them late December. I'm curious to see if Arkham is actually a January set or not, considering how early it was revealed. But LEGO is definitely not my collecting focus so I could have missed any sort of release date confirmation for it.
Yea, I guess its not just the Riddler set but all these sets have a good number of unique figs to them. i think I would label that Riddler set the odd ball D-List Batman Villain set.
Edit: Are they following the Lego Movie plan with this? Another wave in the Spring? Are they planning a big D2C set?

I love that Killer Croc has the old dragon/alligator face.

Thanks, Wet. I love the design of the Nugget. If you have any details or pics on how the sides are angled into the nose, I'd love to see it.

My thoughts as well.
It was a very long time ago (7 years now!) but there's more pics here
It looks like I used hinges and offset the placement of them at the front to join them together

Thank you, I noticed Target took few items off sale like the Turbo Tank and Obi-Wan Jedi Star fighter.

You need to build it in a way where the towers are closer to the center and then join it up.
It's a great set to have a Spiderverse battle royal.

I've thought about buying a second one, selling the figs and doing just this. Still a terrific set with just one but two would be ideal.
Awesome. Mickey & Minnie look decidedly sinister down there...

Thanks! I was waiting for those. But... they do not seem to fold, do they?
New Creator sets!
I generally don't like these smaller non-modulars. But that first one is pretty decent.
That second one though, that building is basic as fuck
Me too. The Townhouse set looks like it could fold with the park square moving on it's own (similar to Corner Deli).
The last 4 Creator houses are my version of a modular city (since I can't afford nor have the room to display a full sized modular). The Townhouse will be a nice addition.

The turtle is the best thing about this set.
It's legs are actually flippers:

The beach hut looks so bland and uninspiring. Like the town home though.

I don't know. To be like that it would require that the second floor of the "right" part of the building to have a back build, since the "left" side is only one floor. When folded, we will be seeing the interior of the second floor if not so. But I am not seeing that.
Anyway, both sets seems to benefect is we double them, making two sets into one larger with both sides built.

I found a sealed The Zombies (9465) set in my storeroom, that I had forgotten about. I can't bring myself to open it, since all my Monster Fighters sets have been disassembled.

Just a had a quick look, it's price has actual dropped in the last 12 months. It's probably going for around $160-$180 now.
It's a actually a flawed set, because the bride doesn't fit in her coffin.

It is "Beachside Vacation". And yes, its problem is that it looks too similar to the current "Beach Hut":

Looks so sparse for a piece count that high. Hoping it maintains the usual "Fold into a more substantive building" thing that the last few have had, because I'm really enjoying the pseudo-modulars from this set so far.

Just noticed Tinkerbell, lol. And that is the same place I put mine. Make it look like she is flying around.

I'd love to do some lighting like that with the modulars once I have them all set up again. I have a ways to go, though. :/
Lovely work and a great picture too, wetwired

One of the members of my lug group has pictures of our yearly display we have at the Columbus Museum of Art. Figured I would share the link, we changed it up a bunch this year. I think you guys will like a lot of the modular shop designs. https://m.flickr.com/#/photos/ohiolug/sets/72157676086631266/

That lit up Disney Castle is a thing of beauty, makes me wish I could buy one and do that too.

You should take it to South Bank on NYE for a few background fireworks shots
or perhaps some Bogan vomit.
Some sparklers would probably work now that you mention it. I'd probably need a tripod and use the DSLR rather than a quick phone camera snap
5004408 A-Wing Pilot is available for in-store pickup from Toys R Us website. Feels like this guy took forever to finally come out here. Gonna try to get one today.
