Alpinemaps Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I like the set. I really like the design of the Bat Mech. Ivy Mech is going to be more plant based than machine, anyway, so lol. But we've got Firefly (new minifig), and they've finally given the Flash dual molded legs. Its about time we get a Flash with yellow boots!

I like the bat mech and firefly addition too... just wish they balanced it out a little more and gave Ivy more vegetation (I don't know if that is the right word)? Or maybe even her plant monster some sort of face (like the abilisk in 76081). I really want a large monster plant with Ivy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I feel like the term "Mech" at the very least implies something mechanical. Still when considering Poison Ivy the wispy tree does fit her, only the scale and execution is hardly intimidating. In all honesty any better fitting idea we could have for her would probably not translate very well into a LEGO model. I mean I can imagine Ivy calling forth vines and bark wrapping around her to form a kind of morphing bodysuit, however in LEGO form it may end up looking little more than sticking a Poison Ivy minifigure into a modified Clayface design with bits of foliage stuck on for extra measure. Either way the Batmech looks wicked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donbee Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Is Flash like the Mase of DC? Doesn’t have his own set yet, but thrown into otherwise lame Batman sets to make them more interesting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would pay $15-$20 bucks for that. Not worth it at the price it's at now {$39.99 US} I'm afraid. I would pay about $20 for it. But that's still a little steep, investment wise! I do love DC sets though! I like the Flash, and I do agree that they just put him in as a side mini-figure in lots of DC sets.

Just have to wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely! I'll wait until it reaches my buy price. What's your buy price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_14 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Any set in the $5 to $80 range can usually be had for 50% off up here at one chain after a while. We rarely see better deals than that so I'll wait for that. I'd only pay more if it had some good/rare minifigures. Firefly doesn't cut it.

For me, it would have to be at least 50%, maybe more. It's not the greatest investment, but I might be able to make a little. I love investing in Speed Champions! They seem to have great growth, and I don't really need to wait for a discount. But I do invest in super heroes, just maybe not this one.
