    After checking target inventory I notice that each store around me jumped in 120 pieces.  Which I assumed that 2 boxes of Batman showed up.  After going to the store all they got was more Disney and Series 16.

    Hi all...just asking in case I've missed it...release in the UK Jan 1st?
    Yep - they may pop up on the 26th in some places, but they'll definitely be out on Jan 1st.
    Are you sure? All current pre orders for these in the U.K. are shipping mid to late Jan...

    Saw that Minifigures Plus has them up for Pre Order today at $269.99/box.  Hadn't heard if there was a BricksetForum discount, but found another listing on eBay that promised a ship date of January 3rd.  Was listed at $270, but made an offer of $240 (basically retail minus taxes) with free shipping.  Hopefully I'll have it the first couple of weeks of January!  Looking forward to keeping some of the accessories from the duplicates!

    I just preordered a set of 20 myself off ebay from Minifigures Plus, I know I won't be able to get out there and cherry pick the ones I want, so I might as well save myself the frustration, even at a bit of a premium. And if I find any in the wild, well, I hope they've got lil lobsters inside. :)

    ^That ebay price isn't bad if you consider 20 x $3.99 + tax + gas to the store(s) + time spent feeling the bags. And shipping is free. I'll probably cave and order a set soon.

    I believe Target used the same DCPI number for all CMF

    Precisely. Doing the math, it was a no-brainer for me considering the stock quality of the stores around me and the serious lack of time I've had the past few months.

    Yes, I knew that but didn't know they are still receiving Disney and series 16.  When I saw the stock number jump I though it would be the new Batman the movie minfigs, but they were not.

    Picked up a few Batman Movie CMF at a local Target just to add them to the Batman sets I'm giving for xmas. I have pre-ordered a set from MinifiguresPlus since it's cheaper & easier for me.
  • scotty12scotty12 Member Posts: 837

    2 of my nearest Targets didn't have the Batman series yet.....mostly Series 16 and Disney....but since Friday at the larger Target...the Series 16 packs were all gone(there were at least 100+packs then) and now there's Series 13 on the checkout lanes.

    Now the feel-up-fun begins!

    Still nothing in my area of Minnesota. Nothing new, no Ninjago, Nexo, Batman. I will not be the Minifigureless Minnesotan again! :P

    Central VA will get by March at the rate my Target stocks new sets.

    Nothing at my local Target. But hey, anyone need some Disney figures? I swear there was no less than 250 of them in the store. 2 jammed full display racks and tons in the checkout aisles. They're cheaper that series 16 though, which scanned for $4.89!

    Wow, I thought they were expensive here at $4.49.

    @BrickCreator, depending on what Santa brings me, I may have to take you up on that offer! lol I just can't seem to find locations with Disney figs locally!

    The Target I went to in Houston had them on the side of an end cap, at a very low height...picked five (checked the dot code to ensure no duplicates) and got:
    • Red Hood
    • Zodiac Master
    • Orca
    • King Tut
    • March Harriet
    Oddly, no Batmen yet. Will be getting at least the series from @MinifiguresPlus and then wait for whenever they get here.

    I ended up with Vacation Batman,Lobster-Lovin' Batman & Red Hood,these will do until my full set from MinifiguresPlus arrives. I had to have an extra Lobster Batman to go with the Batcave Break-In,it will look nice hanging on the Batsuit Rack

    I picked up a Batman CMF due to a mild CMF addiction but most of these Batman figs are a little ridiculous. Would much rather have more serious characters. Did like the King Tut though. Might have to pick up the 60s bat cave. Oh crap. That was their plan all along.

    I wonder if people will incorporate these to their cities, and in what capacity.
  • LegogramLegogram Member Posts: 321
    We will finally have a variety of criminals for all of those CITY police officers to chase. :-)
  • josekaleljosekalel Member Posts: 683
    @Legogram considering how I keep buying Police sets, I need to give those guys a lot of work...

    Yeah this has me stuck as well.  I love CMF and all the awesome accessories, but I just do not have any need for a fairy batman or caveman batman. I think I am going to let this one pass as I really only want Commissioner Gordon and maybe the Red Hood. Maybe throw in Lobster Lovin Batman as well since it is a great fig after a head swap. I'm still trying to decide what to do.

    (These are based on a kids movie.  Did any of us really want a robot Calamity Jane from TLG?)

    Nope. I had the same reservations with the Lego Movie series, but I still got them. I appreciated them for what they were. Its the same with the Batman Movie CMF - I actually do like them all and think the wackiness is cool. I'm just a lot more critical of what I buy these days. I like them, but just don't see a place for them in my collection. I'm not hating on them though - quite the opposite.

    No CMFs at TRU but boy are they throwing EVERYTHING from that movie on the shelves like this gem.

    Stopped at Target after work. There was an almost full picked box but managed to get extras of lobster loving' Batman, rocker Batman, and commissioner (1 of ea).

    The rocker Batman might work for a KISS moc ;-)

    Yes. That was one of the figures I was chasing at the time. I avoided Shakespeare, Martia Queen of the Mermaids, and the characters which could be found in a lot of other sets.

    I still have yet to see TLBM minifigures at a local store, but there are a lot of stores I have not checked yet.
  • lordzaraklordzarak Member Posts: 329
    I ordered a sealed case for delivery later, but I still had to treat myself a couple packs this morning at Target. Without feeling, I ended up with Barbara Gordon and Glam (KISS) Batman.

    Personally, I think of it as BatGene, all he needs is the second expression to be poking out his tongue...

    I'm just hoping it won't be repeat of the Disney CMFs with TLBM CMFs. Apparently we'll be getting them later on, at the same time as TLBM sets, most likely Feb 1st. We got the Disney CMFs later than most of the world, they were pretty much blink & you missed, no second run. I never even laid eyes on a bag, just the empty display cases, so I'm getting tempted to try ordering a set, even if it will be at a premium. Annoying because I want a few extras of a couple of the figures, mostly March Harriet (Playboy bunnies anyone?) & the Orca (want the head piece for my series 14 Plant Monsters).

    What the...! Maaan! Now I have to go back and get a few of those! Thanks a lot! ;-)

    And I had a couple on my hand yesterday and just left them there.

    Why forum?! WHY?! Every time I come here I my list of sets to buy gets bigger and bigger, and my wallet smaller and smaller *sob*.

    @JooTog
    What they don't tell you when the 'rabbit hole' is mentioned is that it's actually a black hole.
    Sucks the contents of wallets right into it's gravitational pull.  ;)

    My TRU had a few boxes out, but at $4.99! Looks like they also bumped up the price of series 16 to avoid confusion.

    Same thing here in Maryland.

    Just saw a trailer and I could have sworn I saw the Super Friends lineup. I saw Apache Chief. Are Samurai and Back Vulcan in there too? Might we see them in a set? We show the blurry image of the Wonder Twins in there.

    Got a few from Target. The capes are the old more rigid type material, at least for glam Batman and caveman Batman. I prefer the soft ones.

    I was thinking the soft fabric was used for those who come with vehicles to help the figs fit better.
  • MooreFXMooreFX Member Posts: 84
    Finally got all 20 this morning at the Lego store.  Our Targets never seem to put out anything early.  Now off to play :)
