The Art of the Brick: DC Comics Batmobile Revealed

October 5, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

If you followed my coverage of San Diego Comic Con, you would know that there was a panel called DC Comics Meets LEGO Art which featured Nathan Sawaya as a guest. There he talked about his upcoming exhibition called The Art of the Brick: DC Comics and today Comic Book Resources has revealed the LEGO Batmobile that he has created for the exhibit. As you can see, it is a full-size Batmobile which was designed by Jim Lee at SDCC and was created with over 500,000 bricks in less than three months and is 18 foot long.

The tour for The Art of the Brick: DC Comics will open at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney, Australia on November 22.

DC’s Super Hero Girls Animated Short

October 1, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 8 Comments

USA Today has released the first animated short for the new DC’s Super Hero Girls series. If you remember back in April, Warner Bros. announced that LEGO will also be producing sets based on this series. There’s still no word yet on of the characters of Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Bumblebee, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, and Katana will be actual minifigures or mini-dolls similar to the Friends and Elves themes. I have a feeling that it’ll be the latter.

The LEGO Group will also be key to building the DC Super Hero Girls franchise, leveraging their experience and success engaging girls in creative construction play to bolster this universe through an array of LEGO® building sets designed to inspire girls’ imaginations.

Tires for LEGO DC Comics Bat-Pod (5004590) Available Again on Bricks & Pieces

September 30, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

If you’re still trying to piece together the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Bat-Pod (5004590), you’ll find that the hardest part to find is probably the tires because they are only available in The Tumbler (76023). Many have been trying to purchase them off Brick & Pieces but they’ve been out of stock for a while. The good news is that they are now available to purchase again at a decent price of $11.02 per tire which is a bargain compared to $30+ sellers are asking for on BrickLink. I highly suggest that you purchase them now before they go out of stock again. The only downside from ordering from Bricks & Pieces is that you won’t earn any LEGO VIP points or qualify for any promotions that are going on.

Update: And it’s sold out again. I won’t keep updating on its availability. You’ll have to keep checking when it comes back in stock.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Hulk (5003048) Minifigure Polybag Image Found

September 20, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 9 Comments

There’s now an image of the new exclusive LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Hulk (5003048) minifigure polybag that has shown up on Kijiji Canada. The Hulk is actually minifigure size instead of the bigfigs that we’re used to seeing with the character but in the olive green skin color. The only other Hulk in minifigure form was 5000022 back in 2012 as part of a LEGO promo at Shop@Home and LEGO Stores.

The 27 piece polybag also contains a small ATV as well as a sticker sheet similar to the one in the Rocket Raccoon (5002145) polybag where you can add the stickers to an existing set which I believe is for the Quinjet from the Age of Ultron wave.

The packaging does say Toys R Us on it and if it’s similar to Rocket Raccoon, it’ll be available sometime in the near future as part of a promotion and hopefully available for regular purchase after that. Thanks to Rick for the heads up.

Update: I’ve been told the street date for the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Hulk (5003048) is December 6, 2015.

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Classic TV Series Batcave (76052) Teased?

September 19, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 9 Comments

Earlier today, LEGO posted an image celebrating the birthday of Adam West. You probably know that Adam West was Batman from the Batman television series back in the 1960s. That takes us to the point, did LEGO tease out a hint of the Batman minifigure for the upcoming LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Classic TV Series Batcave (76052) set?

Notice the Batmobile in the image above of the newer style stud shooters on the hood. Before there was no mentioning if there would be a Batmobile in the 76052 set but this is more evidence that there could be one included. LEGO has released a chibi version of the vehicle at San Diego Comic Con but this set could be a great opportunity to put out a regular sized car.

Thanks to everyone who messaged in about the image. I did see it this morning but I was at work the whole day and didn’t have time to do a post on it then.

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Bat-Pod (5004590) Parts List & Building Instructions

September 12, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 38 Comments

Back in June, there was a contest by LEGO to giveaway a limited edition LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Bat-Pod (5004590). I was told that winners were sent emails with the tracking number and the sets have already been shipped out. Reddit user uacrobi has already received theirs and they were nice enough to provide a parts list so you can start finding the necessary parts to build your own. They will be providing the building instructions in due time as well. The Bat-Pod (5004590) contains 311 pieces and also includes a very nifty looking box which looks similar to the exclusive sets from San Diego Comic Con except that it’s twice the length. If you’re in need of the parts, head on over to BrickLink to find sellers that have them. Below is the parts list and I’ll do a post of the building instructions when they are available.

Update: As promised, the OP has uploaded the building instructions for the Bat-Pod. The original copy was 100MB but I’ve condensed the file size to less than 20MB without losing quality. You can download it here. Just rotate the PDF clockwise to see it the right way.
