A definite must-have for your parts collection! http://www.newelementary.com/2017/01/medium-nougat-dark-flesh-lego-batman-clayface.html 5 Quote
Pseudoty Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 @exciter1 said it was a great build so I know I need to pry open the wallet for one. Waiting until 2/16 (I think it is) to use towards LEGO Shop at Home Disco/Tears Batman poly promo. Maybe PM with the batcave today at TRU. 1 Quote
Salimr Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 I had $100 in VIP points and told my son he could choose any set 100 or less and he choose clayface. He built it completely by himself ( he is 6). It took him a few hours but he really loved it. I think it is one of his favorite sets and that is saying something as his collection may put lord business to shame 2 Quote

My son had $100 in gift cards to the Lego store, and this was the number one item on his list. It is a neat build, and has good play value. One thing not readily apparent on the front of the box is how you can switch the eyes around, and turn the mouth different ways, to create different expressions. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 A pretty cool set that could double as a MOC for Conker's Bad Fur Day of The Great Mighty Poo. 2 Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I am just going to say it. As impressive as the build, the final product does nothing to me since I am not a fan of Clayface or mud in general. 1 Quote

He has the most potential out of any Batman rogues since his power is so flexible. But he is usually written as 1/2 a step above regular henchmen with hammer smash as his go to move. Batman finds a way to freeze him and that would be the end of the episode. 1 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 Current run of Detective Comics has Clayface as a bit of an anti-hero. Many people are enjoying how he's being written. He's written as a tragic figure. Quote
CM4Sci Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 Hmmmmm. I know I said I wouldn't buy it.. but as of 30 minutes ago this is fully built and displayed with the rest of my TLBM stuff. Glad I got it! 3 Quote
donbee Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Current run of Detective Comics has Clayface as a bit of an anti-hero. Many people are enjoying how he's being written. He's written as a tragic figure. Looks and sounds like a DC version of Marvel's Sandman. Or is it the other way around? Quote
Alpinemaps Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Looks and sounds like a DC version of Marvel's Sandman. Or is it the other way around?Yeah a little bit. I haven't followed Marvel at all since the early 90s but I've at least paid attention to DC up until the present. I vaguely remember Marvel's Sandman turned good. So I'm guessing the stories are at least similar. Quote

I don't know about the comics last the early 90s either, but in the Toby movie trilogy he's a returning villain that actually plays a significant role in the maturation of Spider-Man. You end up feeling sorry for the guy. I think he helped with a robbery because he couldn't afford the cancer treatments for his daughter. Then he accidentally got transformed into the sandman. Daughter's still sick, he's a wanted freak, so he starts robbing armored cars. Not out of greed, but to pay for the treatments because the insurance companies won't cover her because she's sick and the hospitals wong take her because she's not insured. The whole point of course is to make you wonder, who's really the bad guy? 5 Quote

donbee Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 At least I know you read through the whole post. Consider it an Easter egg =) 1 Quote
CLMF Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Is this one worth stocking up on clearance? Quote

Val-E Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Yup, cheap enough and you´ll be fine. Does look a bit like my avatar, though. Quote
