You got the price for 76260 wrong on this post btw, just letting you know

Price and piece count need to be corrected

That's Looks so Spectacular Sets!

I pretty much like these figures. I think they are better than the Star Wars ones that were built only using Technic pieces. And for me, who didn’t get the 2012 buildable figures, it’s amazing. I do not love that pack of bicycles though, I am surprised there’s no building in it like every other ‘battle pack’, but a new figure is always welcome.

Curious what their USD prices will be. 76206 Iron Man was $40, 76226 and the other Spider-Man characters were $25, and 76256 Ant-Man is $30. Considering the Spider-Man figures were praised for their relative value, I hope Lego doesn't shoot themselves in the foot by making the entry price for constraction too high again.

Overall I'm just happy that Lego seems to be interested in actually giving constraction a future after giving up in 2018. They might still be testing the waters a bit with each iteration on this new System template, but time will tell if this direction sticks around. Using Marvel and DC as test subjects is honestly brilliant, as a lot of superhero costumes don't show a lot of skin and the character name recognition will guarantee an audience will try them.

...that said, Lego DC really needs to get its stuff together. I understand the fact that movie tie-ins have been in limbo due to everything going on internally and externally at WB/Discovery, but only having one-off Batman sets for the past two years is extreme. Only one DC figure, just Batman? There's probably hesitancy to make figures of non-helmeted characters as they haven't figured that out yet with this style, but still, at least one other figure would be good...

The Buildable Cap goes into uncanny valley for me but that motorcycle set is great

These figures look even worse than previous ones lmao

I'm Batman

Star Wars CCBS had a similar thing where Grievous and K2SO were some of the stand-out figures, while characters with faces like Luke or Obi Wan just looked off. "

Play is what brings them back to motor bikes. Kids like toys that are zoomable and swooshable. bikes fit the bill. Also, these are characters kids like and want. So marketable characters and playable toy? of course they go for it. Yes there are way to many captain America bike sets, but if they keep coming back to it kids must love them.

Nah. Cool they keep putting out sets I have no interest in. $$$$ in my pocket.

Looks at Batman...Looks across room at Green "Construt-a-Hal" Lantern...Palms chin, wondering: How did these things get WORSE over time...:|

Edit: Just 'pinned down' the biggest thing thing bugging me about 'Bats'; the placement his mask's 'ears'...I've: read, watched, PLAYED (Arkham game, JL Arcade,...), and more of the character for decades...I CAN NOT recall anyone presents him with his 'ears' that far back...it looks just wrong...

Well, you kept your identity secret for a long time.

I can think of some good ideas with the prints from Wolverine and the rounded bat logo could be useful.

For the motorcycles, they have a low piece count while still being a coherent vehicle, which also prominently displays the character atop it.

Batman is OK but the other two...especially Captain. With these price tags, I doubt how success they will be

OH.

I dont even know how I'm supposed to feel about Wolverine and Captain America.

Those faces ...

These recent Superheroes constraction sets have been a bit pricey for my tastes, but that Batman is kinda tempting...

I'm surprised that we're not getting a Black Widow buildable figure.

Those captain america fingers are terrifying

The build able figures look... unsettling. Besides Batman, who kind of works. But just barely.

Yes sir. Grevious was perfection."

Agreed. Easy to make construct-o-mechs of mechs. Harder with organic beings. I know these aren't for me and I have no hate.

But, I love to make fun of them. To me that Wolf-er-ene just screams "WUZZZZZUP!"

The flat printed face look very odd side on.

The AFOL in me says “meh.” The early ‘90s teenager in me says “Wolverine!!!”

Interesting to me that the Batman figure is branded specifically for BATMAN RETURNS. I think it’s the 30th anniversary, but it’s still interesting to see Lego officially recognize it.

Let's just get Bionicle back, these aren't cool.

I’m sorry but I just cracked up laughing when I saw that Wolverine! :)
….Batman looks kinda cool though..

Yet another Wolverine figure where the claws are longer than the forearms they retract into. At least Lego has more of an excuse than the action figure companies that did the same thing...

OMG the fingers will go good on an E.T. MOC

Where’s Apache Chief? It would definitely be cool to have an Apache Chief figure in this “giant” size.

That's America's nose!"
*looks at it*
That IS America’s nose.

Those new finger pieces for the construction figures don't look quite right...

Of the buildable figures, Batman is probably the best but not that good regardless. Wolverine could be worse, but Cap just looks unbelievably awful. Not sure if LEGO was going for a pre-serum Steve Rogers, but that's exactly what it looks like.

The bikes are probably the best of what is displayed here, but only because they aren't buildable figures. They look like great value though, and I might pick them up if I have a bit of loose change.

Besides Ant Man, no.

Hope Batman figure can fit well with Technic Batcycle.

I’m just wondering what the target market is for these figures, at this price and scale you could get a Marvel Legends/DC Multiverse figure for less, so it’s not ideal for collectors and at this price point I’m guessing most kids would rather have multiple cheaper figures from another brand or a playset

I’ll probably still buy Wolverine, but the hard truth is that only Batman looks decent, out of this trio. It helps that he’s clad in solid black, which helps obfuscate some of the wonky design flaws. Plus, the cape is a cape, instead of just ribbons. Cap might not look so bad if you weren’t staring though the gap where his neck should be located.

@xboxtravis7992:
I mean…they’re small, right? You can’t exactly pull off a quinjet at that price, at least not with two minifigs. And it’s not like they have a ton of other options. At least it’s not a Spiderman dune buggy…

And you’re not wrong about the robot thing. There’s a reason why the vast majority of my Bioniwars characters are either clad in full body armor (including helmet), or they’re robots. Offhand, the only ones I can recall designing an actual face for were Yoda (alien), Greedo (alien), the Echo Base trooper (half hidden with a visor, for which one of the Technic hockey masks worked perfectly), Maul (alien again, and I still had to paint lines on it or nobody would know who he was), and a Jawa (and you can’t really make out their faces anyways).

@Alia_of_AGL:
Wait, was Ant-Man supposed to represent him at normal size? I kept thinking it was weird that they didn’t try to make this giant version look anything like a minifig, since they’d previously done that with another Ant-Man, Ares, and Grawp.

@brick_r:
Without a straight-on side shot, I’m not entirely sure just how far back they sit, but there has been at least one instance where they were right at the back of the skull:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Batman_vs._Dracula

Now, they were also a lot shorter, so it didn’t look as awkward. Maybe these ears can be rotated 180°?

@MugenLazlo:
That would require figuring out how to build a more feminine frame. Once you have a basic design, it’s far easier to just repeat it, or maybe add a little extra bulk.

@WemWem:
It was last year. But the 89 Batsuits had this weird triple-tail design on the bat emblem, where Returns just used the basic Silver Age logo.

@TheOtherMike:
It wasn’t a problem at all on the Wolverine mech. Because it was a mech. Leave the claws out 24/7, fold them back against the arms (just watch who or what you brush up against)…

I suppose my expectations were unrealistic, but I was hoping for Winter Soldier Captain America and Black Widow.

@PurpleDave: OH, THE PAIN, THE PAIN...I did my BEST to block that..."series of events" (series, movies, and so on) from my memory...funny, Bats has an flow/ebb cycling (IMHO): BTAS=Good, The Batman=Bad, Batman: The Brave and The Bold=Good, Beware the Batman=Bad...kinda' fascinating actually:)

@brick_r:
I actually really liked Beware the Batman, and was kinda meh on B:TBatB.

Its nice to see another big cloth cape piece, feels like its been a while since we last got one and they're all so expensive and scarce on the secondary market

If nothing else, these are good for laughs

“You think you got it tough? I had a facelift. There was one just like it underneath!”

@PurpleDave hopefully not too “feminine”-I’ve seen enough degenerate Lego MOCs using Bionicle and Hero Factory parts, believe me.

Quite like the Batman figure, but Wolverines ear/sideburn things look terrible.

The only one I find at least partly interesting is the Batman one. But for what you seem to get the suggested RRP imho is farcical. That's a 19.99 Euro set to me. But I'm not the target audience of these anyway, and that's okay.

38 euros??? that's a robbery

76260 looks like an affordable way to get these minifigures.

Wolverine looks constipated

Those bikes look like a retired couple traveling the U.S. in gigantic, Barcalounger-on-wheels, road bikes. They drive 20 mph under the limit and stop at all restaurants with pie!!

Maybe this is from some missing scene where Scarlett Johansson tries to convince Cap'n to sign the Accords by showing him the joys of retired scenic cruising... and pie!!

The Batman figure is the winner here for me, it's the best looking one and I agree with whomever it was above who mentioned Batman Returns - YES! It looks very much like that era of Bat Costume. That may have sold me on it, but with a nice discount.

The Captain America one for me is a bit weak but all I could think looking at it was how easy it would be for them to modify it slightly and give us a Captain Carter buildable figure. I'd be all over that.

@capnrex101 How does batman scale with the 1989 vehicles ucs?
