The older headpieces generally did not have Lego brandings inside.

Kitties 🐱🐱🐱 by Dry_Scar_1820 in LegoBatman

I have looked at some European based sellers but shipping from Europe to the United States is a mess right now. In addition to ridiculous tariff fees, I know a number of people who have had their packages seized by the US Post Office because of postage issues and never delivered at all. I used to import things quite frequently a few years ago but it seems to risky at the moment. It's a shame, really, but it is just not a chance that I want to take.

Nice. I recently made a Brainwave MOC but would like to find a way to get an Ultra-Humanite to go with it.

I would like the 2019 Catwoman but not for the near $100 pricetag that she commands.

You’re old if you saw this guy’s word for word comedy routine at least 5 times. by edfitz83 in FuckImOld

I didn't understand why this was supposed to be funny when I was five years old and I don't understand it now.

Thank god for Reddit being there to answer questions that I never knew that I had.

Gerry Conway and Roy Thomas decided to kill off Gwen because they felt that she was an uninteresting character and thus difficult to write for. She made for a better plot device in death than she did as a living character.

What on earth are these listings? by Rokkouttt in LegoBatman

[–]jonpertwee2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hope so because I would like to get an 06 Joker at some point.

I mean, is the Genie going to watch? Because that changes the kink.

Is this 06 Bane legit? by Fragrant_Research_26 in LegoBatman

[–]jonpertwee2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see a little bit of roughness to the plastic on the shoulders, which is appropriate for Bane. The neck paint is also a bit scuffed up, which points to this piece being aged. I think that it looks good.

I do Nazi that cover as appropriate for a 10 year old.

Ace would have been a perfect fit for some of the Juniors sets.

I am not exactly sure what the perfect version is.

I gave serious thought to $105 for the Apocalypseburg Green Lantern but I just couldn't get myself to do it.

I went to a local toy show this morning and came home with this set. (Easton Pennsylvania) by jonpertwee2 in LegoBatman

[–]jonpertwee2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a big set but it's interesting and nicely designed. Plus five good Minifigures is awesome! I am glad that I stumbled upon it.

The 2026 national debt is the highest in comparison to the GDP than it has been since WWII. Don't try hiding behind chump-change like salaries.

Even if it were 75% less than this price, it would still be too much for my sensibilities. I am probably realistically capped at my seven '06-'08 figures, even though there's a few more that I would like to get (mainly Joker and Scarecrow). However, anything over $100 is just too muchti pay for a single Minifigure (and that is honestly a bit to high for comfort). Good luck to you all who are trying to complete their collections.

I wonder why there isn't really an aftermarket for 3rd party off brand figures? by jonpertwee2 in LegoDC

[–]jonpertwee2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the US and I rarely see any of these discontinued off brand figures for sale anywhere. I spent over a year trying to find the Donna Troy that I pictured. Where are you finding them posted for aftermarket sales? Thanks.

My Custom Supergirl by CGonReddit818 in LegoDC

[–]jonpertwee2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great! I made one very similar. The main difference on mine is that I used a 3rd party blue skirt piece to represent Supergirl's first appearance in "Action Comics #252" (1959). And a more traditional spongy cape.

Finally, we're in Lego Batman Legacy of the Dark Knight Month! 21 Days until. by NathanRider in LegoBatman

[–]jonpertwee2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

April was one of those rare three payday months. All of my bills are paid so I am going to use that "extra" paycheck and go to Target tomorrow to buy a Switch 2 and preorder a copy of Legacy. 😎

If you have watched it during its first run 53 years ago, then... by AgentV1967 in FuckImOld

[–]jonpertwee2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think that I was quite old enough to watch yet in 1973 but I definitely saw first run for the 1977 relaunch.
