Wasn't planning on getting the Nick turtles, but they look too cool to pass on.

As for classics, don't know if I'll hold out for the best pupils possible or just paint the eyes solid white. Kind of prefer all white but don't know if my OCD will allow me to do it.

The Transformers Kreons have my interest. I have almost all of the first wave, and will continue to buy the robots. No interest in the bricks or human characters. The combiners look neat.

Still can't seem to find the particulars on these. Some are saying it's a raffle at the LEGO booth. Some are saying they will just be handed out at the booth. I have no idea.

Also, I read that there would be a "scavenger hunt" to build your own Bilbo from LOTR. You get the first piece at the LEGO booth, then get a map of the show floor telling you where to go to find the other pieces. I'm pretty sure that's the same thing they did with a Batman & Joker twopack a few years ago.

Have fun, and good luck!

Apparently there are several LEGO exclusive minifigures this year. Shazam & Bizarro from DC and Phoenix & Venom from Marvel from the Super Heroes theme. Good Lord, I hope these end up being "preview" figures and end up in regular sets in 2013.

Not sure. Only saw one post about it so far on a Lego forum. I'll let you know when I find out something more concrete.

Anyone going to SDCC this year, if you can get a LEGO Shazam minifigure for me without killing me on the price, it would be greatly appreciated. :biggrin:

I have also had to restart levels after "saving" halfway through. It's kind of annoying, but I'm not taking any more chances with it. Going to complete each level before I quit. Also had the game freeze once on me (Xbox version), but otherwise I'm very happy with it. LOVE the graphics.

Just preordered mine. Got the EX version, just so I don't hate myself for not getting it later. My first Hot Toys purchase in well over a year, but how could I not buy this figure?

Been out of the 1/6 game for a while now, but I MUST have this Joker. Wow.

Picked up my Xbox 360 preorder with Lex today. What a great freebie!

Anyway, I'm hoping to hear some reviews here about the Vita version, because I can only seem to find conflicting reports about it online. Some say it's open world, some say it's identical to the 3DS version.

**EDIT** Nevermind. Found a Vita forum and it's a 3DS port. Not sure why they went that route, but it's got some Vita owners plenty pissed. hahaha I still may pick up a copy anyway. An Amazon seller has it for $20.99 + shipping. Tempting...

**EDIT AGAIN** The seller must have realized they were giving the game away for $20, as it is no longer available. Man, I missed out on that deal. :/

I always thought the handheld versions were stripped down compared to the console versions. If the Vita version has the same features as the 360 version, I'd rather have that one, I think.

Wow, that werewolf head looks great on that body. Nicely done.

If anyone buys the lab to use with your Minimates, I'm looking to buy just the Frankenstein from that set. Just figured I'd throw that out there.

I quit 1/6 toys quite some time ago, but I'm going to have to buy that Joker 2.0 unless the asking price is outrageous. Of all the 1/6 figures I regretted selling off, my DX Joker was the one I missed the most.

Yeah, that haunted house is the best LEGO set coming out this year, out of any theme. Can't wait for it.

Batman is the awesomeist! Just something about the whole "I don't have super powers but I can kick everybody's butt" thing that really appeals to me.

Hahaha! But seriously, not every hero is for everybody. If I had a copy of the comic where Wonder Woman is crushing Batman's face under her boot on the cover I'd send it to ya.

I always liked the silent characters, but I must admit I'm enjoying the Joker so far. I have the game preordered for 360 at Gamestop, and am thinking about getting it for Vita as well, but haven't decided just yet.

Bought the swamp creature last night at TRU, but nothing else because of the TRU tax. The creature is awesome and has more than a passing resemblance to Mer-Man. I don't collect any of the yellow skinned Minifigures anymore but I'll get the monster sets just for the monsters.

Selling them individually on ebay is probably the way to get the most money. Just out of curiosity, which Harry Potter minifigures do you have? I collect those, but only the flesh tone versions. (non-yellow)

Thanks. I'll have to start checking my local TRUs.

Yes!! I've been waiting for these to be released. Where did you find them?

Sold all my MOTU several months ago, keeping only Trap Jaw and Skeletor. Ordered Draego Man today, and will likely pick up a few here and there that I missed out on or previously sold off. Definitely NOT going to get them all. Too many have issues that ruin the figure like Goddess and Roboto's cracking bodies, King Hsss' stupid revered shoulders, etc...

Most of my money is going to my LEGO collection these days.

It seems that everyone(here and elsewhere) hates on the helicopter, but I don't think it looks bad. Could it have been better? Sure, but it's a $20 set and you get three awesome minifigures in it. Wolverine's motorcycle is nice and simple. Wolverine and Deadpool look great, but to me it's Magneto who is the star of the set. Two great expressions, and his helmet looks great. Probably my favorite figure of the entire Marvel line so far.

Just got the set, and they are not named on either the instructions or the box. Not even "alien general" or "alien soldier." Bummer.

Not put here yet. Target's website lists them as available 4/8, but I've seen where some people have gotten theirs early. I read a review where the guy referred to them as alien soldier and alien general, but I don't know if that was the official name or just what he called them.

Way more creative than most other pranks we'll see today. Nice job!!
