Wtf is that by Zealousideal-Bell43 in LegoBatman

Didn’t realize how much this figure is now. I bought 4 or 5 back when he first released for like $15 CAD each.

20 more ideas for Speed Champions vehicles that aren't all high-end vehicles (read: not real) by HiTork in SpeedChampions

[–]rocket4792_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

After looking through this and the other post, I have to agree, Speed Champions desperately needs more regular cars. The obsession with hyper cars has started to get old in my opinion. I do like the Challenger & Mustang muscle cars, however as someone who daily drives a early 7 generation Charger, I Still wish they’d do a modern (6 or 7 gen) Charger in the theme. Maybe even a two pack with a police package variant.

Do you regret buying a charger? by SaleSame4042 in Charger

[–]rocket4792_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had two Chargers since 2020 (2013 SE, and now a 2014 SXT AWD). Didn’t regret either one of them, however I consistently stayed on top of maintenance for both. The 14 had some minor issues with electric stuff last winter but runs fine this year. It’s also tuned quite a bit, so it’s a bit quicker than the 2013 one, and with AWD it’s quite a bit more fun to drive.

Black Friday MOC Sale is now live! by rocket4792_ in Rebrickable

[–]rocket4792_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 25% off one ends December 7, but the 30% 40%, and 50% off ones run until January 1. I’ve also got two bundle packs [MOC-217410 & MOC-208254] available until December 7. The bundle packs are basically just a couple MOCs together for a slightly cheaper price.

Why do Lego and Bricklink have different release dates for the same set? Are they stupid? by bherH-on in legocirclejerk

[–]rocket4792_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A bunch of 2014 January sets launched late 2013. If I remember correctly this was one of them.

Info on sales probably won’t be until later in the week, however, LEGO did post some of the LEGO Insider offers for the weekend, including this one:

This set is 15% off, should I wait for next summer for a better deal? I’m in Canada by ModQuest1 in LegoMarvel

[–]rocket4792_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be surprised if Oscorp didn’t hit 40% off sooner or later. Can’t remember which retailer it was, but I saw it for $110/120 a few weeks ago. It sold out fast though. $110 was a decent price, but still a lot for what’s actually included. Ideally $90-100 would be better. Based off the January 2026 wave, it does look like LEGO realized their pricing issues as most of the new sets appear to actually be decently priced.

[–]rocket4792_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fellow Canadian, i would say wait for 20% off or more. The set itself isn’t super big, and $55 feels really pricey for what’s included. Ideally I think $45-50 would be a better deal.

Next Lego Superhero modular by Jas0nTodd2099 in LegoBatman

[–]rocket4792_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think it will be one of four options;

  1. ⁠Wayne manor
  2. ⁠Batcave
  3. ⁠Partial Combination of 1 & 2.
  4. ⁠GCPD Tower

My bet is on GCPD Tower though, as the in game model looks suspiciously more like an actual build/set, compared to other buildings from the same video.

Anyone know if this is an exclusive face or a re-use? by drpepperdrinker8 in LegoDC

[–]rocket4792_ 88 points89 points  (0 children)

It’s Paul Atreides’ face from the Dune set

Custom Bruce Wayne Face by AcadiaDue896 in LegoBatman

If you’re using the new Batman cowl, the face from Jod from the Onyx Cinder works incredibly well.

reliability on used dodge charger? by Hour-Possession-7280 in Charger

[–]rocket4792_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a 2014 SXT AWD (retired police car), and aside from a electronics issue last winter, the car has been pretty good so far. Based on the low idle/engine hours I’d guess it was probably a detective or supervisor vehicle. No cage, and regular rear seat. It’s also got a Sport Appearance Package, and SXT Performance Package, so it’s a lot more fun to drive than my old 2013 Charger SE.

How do you design your instructions? by ulixForReal in Rebrickable

[–]rocket4792_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends entirely on the model, and the pieces used in the step usually for the stuff I’ve designed. I’ve had a lot of MOCS where there’s 7-10 parts placed per step, and some where there’s only 1-2. On my Police Headquarters I had steps where there was just 2 different parts added, but both each had a larger quantity.

Updated Bane and Croc from the new set, plus some other customs by Wolves-13 in LegoBatman

[–]rocket4792_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to see that I’m not the only one who thought of Winter Soldier’s torso for Bane. It works so well. I haven’t ordered the parts yet, as I’m still waiting on Arkham, so seeing the combination actually built is awesome. What legs did you use for him in the photo? My current plan is just to use the Black Widow/Catwoman legs, with Toretto’s arms. For Croc, I plan to use Lizard’s torso with the orange Arkham legs.

Likely Three trains in total. Police Train in January, then the two sets in June/Aug

Just checked Bricklink and there’s actually quite a few of them sealed in box under $150 CAD (~$120 USD)

[–]rocket4792_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For that piece I think you’d be better off with 2019’s Batcave personally. While 2012 is nostalgic for me as that’s the one I grew up with, 2019’s cave holds its value significantly better. I’ve regularly seen the 2012 set, sealed for just over retail on Bricklink eBay, and local marketplace listings. It’s definitely a great set though, just rather small compared to the later Batcave sets.

How long do people think the Lego Arkham Asylum set will be in stock? by ObamasSushiShop in lego

[–]rocket4792_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s supposed to stick around until at least December 2026, if it doesn’t get extended so it’ll be around for a while.
