Alpinemaps Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 The January 2020 line of minifigures will be DC Super Heroes. Rumor is that it will be some more obscure characters. So far, leaks have been Metamorpho, Green Lantern Simon Baz, Sinestro (Challenge of the Super Friends costume). Star Girl is also rumored.

hockeyweasel Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I'm skeptical. Too logical to be a real LEGO idea. Seriously, though, they should have thought of this a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

$20 on joe vs dan Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 so not just a dozen variations of batman & villians? there must have been some licensing issues w/ Marvel because that's the more obvious (read=popular) choice.

Darth_Raichu Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Metamorpho? Here wishing for minifig of everyone from the Outsiders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Coat Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I thought they couldn't sell minis just of the comics characters because that would be an infringement on the action figures that Hasbro and others have licensing for? I assumed TLBM/2 sets were allowed since they technically were part of the movie and not just a DC Heroes line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zskid00 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I know the DC action figure license is transferring from Mattel to McFarlane in 2020, though I think Mattel is still retaining the DC license for Fisher Price. Perhaps something changed for LEGO to be able to do these now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got purple hands and really pointy ears, so probably the original comics debut of Batman from Detective Comics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy_bricks Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I'm in, but like with all the recent minifigs I'll hold out until Amazon drops them to $3 and buy a bunch of individuals to get the digital credits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's old school. 7 hours ago, Alpinemaps said: Kelley Jones was the penciler. Holy shat, I have that exact issue for some random reason. I can't remember the crazed convict's name, just in this story he had a group of women hostage with the police force outside and every single mark you see on his body was self-inflicted as in with each kill he used his knife to "keep score". A sick f*** indeed. On a side note I want to say around the back of this issue in the section where people could mail in questions and the staff would respond, someone had asked about the penciling & inking process. They showed an original rough sketched panel followed by the same scene done by three different inkers. Though the scene was essentially the same, each one's specialized style gave it such a unique appearance. The difference in the details between them always stuck with me.
