This set actually look really good. I’m sad it doesn’t come with his grapple, but the fact that it’s only supposed to be $20 astonishes me. I might just buy it.
Also, is anything that turns into a ball a Bohrok, then?
Hammond look so amazing, though.
What’s weird is that this is the first character LEGO’s made that wasn’t available upon release. I’m surprised they didn’t do something a little more “OG” before moving into the new ones. Oh, well, it gives me more hope for Moira.
I’m getting. This is perfection. Say what you want about whatever, but Roadhog is perfect, this set is awesome, and I love everything about it. Except Junkrat’s gun, though I like the printed tile piece.
Both of these sets are excellent. I am really glad LEGO is sticking with the Overwatch theme for a little longer because we have gotten some great sets with great pricing. These two largely continue that trend.
Wrecking ball looks really good and the value is there. I like the Junkertown set but I do not know if there is $50 in volume of stuff in it. It probably has a lot more to offer in person.
I really like that both of these are display-oriented with some cool and useful features, because I primarily enjoy sets for their build and display value. I’m also really surprised that Junkrat’s gun is not a stud shooter. This adds to the mature feel of the sets for me.
Can’t tell if they’re dark orange or plain orange from the cgi. New bionicle recolors either way. Roadhog’s bike has yellow technic cams which are even more useful imo.
How else would you propose the fingers or the tank cannon
I think he’s lovely.
There are some key differences, namely the head, shoulders, and a but more, but I like him the way he is. And this is the only skin I will ever use for him, at least until I get Gwishin.
Okay… who’s “we” in this scenario? Clearly some people want these sets. They appeal to the large Overwatch player base. What’s more, they introduce loads of new parts and colors that AFOLs have been fawning over.
I personally come from a totally unbiased point of view. I don’t play the game and pretty much ignore it, and I haven’t really been mad at or happy with Lego for a while either.
I think that the Overwatch sets are nice. While not a lot of people might not understand the lore behind them, they will appreciate the new pieces and pieces in new colors.
For example, D.Va’s tiny little pistol. New piece, and it’s in pink.
I almost got that set because it had some pretty epic parts in it. Reinhardt’s helmet would make for a great Sauron or King of Angmar helmet. The shoulder pieces would be awesome for mechs.
I can go on about the other sets too.
But I think that it shouldn’t really matter that Lego chose Overwatch, not for those who don’t play it. They should focus on the new pieces and colors that are being brought to them.
