Doesn't ship till the release date.... wow, what a scam. The only thing you have 'in hand' are other peoples pictures. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker Quote
chinothegeeko Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Looks like it got removed. Nicework Quote
mattyman Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Just as an FYI - the Tumbler is not regarded as a UCS type set by Lego - I don't think this really matters to be honest - but as everybody is decribing it as a UCS - I thought we should get our facts correct. Thanks for getting in touch with us. I can understand that you are looking forward to get the new LEGO 1 Quote

ISO8T0 Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 No joke! The tumbler makes the new Santa's Workshop look like Duplo. Was hoping for a bigger winter village set this year. Can't wait for SepTumbler to come! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Brickpicker mobile app 1 Quote
TheOrcKing Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Regarding your question, as far as we know the LEGO Tumbler 76023 is a standard LEGO set.If the Tumbler is their idea of a standard set then I wonder what they consider as exceptional. This is anything but "standard". Quote
citymorgue Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 If the Tumbler is their idea of a standard set then I wonder what they consider as exceptional. This is anything but "standard". To this day i cannot understand Legos position on ucs. The sandcrawler is considered ucs but has no plaque. The tumbler had one yet is missing the label. I've owned the original x wing and blockade runner and star destroyer and those were collector series. It seems like a pretty simple and benign thing for lego to hash out, but they keep avoiding a concise answer like the plague. Quote
mattyman Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 True. The old batmobile was a ucs type. No logo! Standard building instructions. Only difference was no minifigs, no plaque but slapped the ucs wording on the box! As far as build, the tumbler wins hands down IMO Quote

TheDarkness Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Probably assuming through the thorough review mentioned previously. I can't wait to get my grubby little paws on the set. Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 The UCS one is and excellent build......how are you comparing them if the tumbler hasn't even been released yet? That was my thought. lol. I have build the other. Its amazing looking, but the build was tedious honestly. I think the Tumbler looks better in the pictures, though I like the vehicle better anyway. But we all know a lot of stuff looks great in pictures. Case and Point : Fast Food Burgers. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 But we all know a lot of stuff looks great in pictures. Case and Point : Fast Food Burgers.Funny you mention that because I came across something where a guy goes around to various fast food chains to see if they can make the food look like what is shown on the menu or commercials. Plenty of the comments on YouTube left below it are humorous too. There is a point where we can't really expect something to look precisely as good as it does in the ad but you should end up with something that actually does resemble in some way what you paid for. 2 Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I actually studied some of this in High school. Burgers are cooked for 30 seconds or so on high to juicy them up, then they cut out a triangle or so from the back and spread it out to make it look fuller. No mashing of ingredients down. So the answer is usually... no, they don't look the same. But you also don't get E-coli. You just poop your colon out. Quote
