Why so serious?
" Holy scars batman! Haha, hello there, today we are reviewing The Tumbler! Now shall we get started with the mini-figs?
The Heath Ledger Joker: Now this has to be the one reason I bought this set, he is a fantastic detailed figure, and I am a HUGE fan of him. So, he has some nice printing on the back and front, one smiling face, and another which has a nice grin. I like how the makeup is not perfect on the faces, just like the movie version, and how they have the skin in some places on his head. The trench coat is really nice, not much about it.
The Batman: He is a pretty cool figure, nothing much to him, darker suit, and the average mask, and the same face, I do love the figure though.
The tumbler: Big and bulky, not for younger kids, it would most likely fall apart, and it's more of a display model, but the figures would be good for stop motions, it has lots of stuff inside, like a computer, and the 2 seats, it's a good set after all, but I feel it's to big for the tumbler, because in the Dark Rises bane set, thats supposed to be the tumbler, it's a lot more small. I personally think they should have made the size close to the Bane Tumbler set.
I'm sorry that this review was short, I have a lot more to cover with this set, but at the time I was doing this I was extremely tired, I hope you understand! I'll be reviewing some Star-Wars sets soon! Byee! "

This is the best set I have seen by lego.
" Holy Deathstrokes batman! It's the best lego set ever! Now, the minute I saw this set on the website, I jumped right all over it, added it to my wishlist, then looked for the store it had it in stock, and then went right into this set!
The Bat-Boat: Now this piece reminds me of the Killer Croc set that was released around 2004? I'm sorry if I got that wrong, it was a while back, so anyways back on topic! This has enough fun for Robin and Batman, and it has an amazing but extremely delicate body, so if you're getting this for a young buddy, I'd recommend telling them to not move it around everywhere, and be to rough with it, but anything like the Bat-Boat is still tough from the evil flick fires! Lol, so anyways yes it is a good but delicate build. (Now to the minifigs!)
Deathstroke: He is the only main reason I got this set, (BUT DONT GET ME WRONG, THIS IS AN AMAZING SET!) and he is actually launched for his first appearance on Lego, if I am correct, I am so sorry if I am not, he has good well printing, and reminds me of the recent Two-Face Chase set, well not recent but not old..but you know what I mean! Afterall, this Mini-Fig is the #1 BEST of lego
Bat-flick-batman I think: He is a really neat character, and he has some good detail, and the new mask ROCKS! Theres not much to him, so I guess thats his part of the review
Robin: This is one awesome character! He is actually on his 2nd appearance, (meaning this is his 2nd, well at least the 2nd Kid Robin, I think) He has just an AMAZING suit, which I love.
Now thats the end of this quite short review, I am sorry it's so short, mostly because I was in a rush at the time I wrote this, and to the Lego team, thank you so much for launching Deathstroke. High five guys! :)
So I'll see all of you soon, I will be doing some new reviews, I'm currently just spectating on some Star Wars sets, so you will most likely see me there, chai! "

Everything you need for you're little Empire!
" Hi there! So, I am going to keep this review short, as possible, due to me going off topic sometimes, but lets get started!
The Transport: This build is actually really simple for all, the first thing I'll talk about is how the piece is so alike to the mini robot mouse type things that drive around the death star, except in a Storm Trooper carrying version.
The Storm Troopers: These amazing characters are plenty to start you're Empire! It has 4 of the same Storm Troopers, except 2 of them have different faces, from the other 2! Which makes them unique! These 4 Storm Troopers are a bit different from the older versions of the Storm Troopers, which is very thoughtful of our fantastic Lego Team, always making their best. :)
More about the build: It also has really amazing Flick-Fire Missiles, and a box in the middle of the build that slides out with some studs for the Storm Troopers stud guns!
Now, I think this is it for the review, and yes this set is amazing for you're Son/Daughter/Family/Friend/Yourself, I'll see you on my next review, bye! "

Amazing set for Starwars!
" Hi there, so I have a lot to say on this set, and I am really excited to share my experience for you guys!
The Build: Now, this is one of my top favourite sets I have, mostly because of the first original Star Wars game, which I had on my DS back then, and still play it. It has an amazing body to it, and has lots of fun space for the droids, which makes it even more fun to play with it, IF you like to play with legos, I actually do like to fiddle around with it sometimes, and this set is just a fantastic one, it also has many spaces you can open and move around, now to the mini-figs!
(Also quick note, I will not say all the names in this set, knowing the Star Wars fan community can be offended if I spell something wrong, or name something that is incorrect, so I will just put for some characters: Green lightsaber Jedi, blue one, Ect, I hope you guys don't mind, sorry!)
Qui-Gon Jinn: (I am extremely sorry if I spelt that wrong, and didn't use proper grammar, ect, It's quite late at the time I wrote this, and I don't know that much about the names, but I hope I spelt it right!) Now, he has to be my favourite Mini-fig in this set, I do know he was terminated by Darth Maul, but his hair piece is the best, and so creative of our fantastic Lego team, always trying their hardest. :)
Obi-Wan Kenobi: (I hope I spelt that right! So sorry if I didn't) This is a pretty good character, he isn't anything crazy special, but he is a good edition to this set.
Naboo Security Guard: (Like I said, if I spelt it wrong, I am so sorry!) This character is a nice extra to this set, and he has a really cool hat, and the normal loved Star Wars pistol, which is always loved, well in my opinion. :)
The Droids: These guys, are really neat, and well made for the Star Wars lego franchise, they are mostly the same, except for the white and blue body droid, which I assume would be the General of those droids, and they are really awesome to put in the case and out, which I 110% love!
Now, I think I covered it all...except for the mini flying droid shooter thingy! I completely LOVE this part, it's just so funny, and it makes the set complete, make sure the next time when these droids attack, to have some clones ready!
I really hope this review was useful, and helped you pick this for yourself/son/daughter/familymember/friend/everything! If this helped, feel free to give me feedback of what review you want next, or how to improve my reviews, for you guys! I also hope I didn't upset any of the Star Wars fan community, I am truthfully sorry if I spelt something wrong, or missed something, do send me feedback for my next reviews in the future, have a fantastic day or night (well it is night for me at the time I made this review, so good night...i'd say..or maybe good day..depending on when you are reading this, okay back on topic, have a fantastic night/day, and I'll see you on my next review!)

It's a bit of a miss for this Spider-Set
" Well! This wasn't the best expected set! It's mostly a possible home made project. So let's get reviewing shall we? First off the Mini-Figs.
Spider-Man: So mostly I feel like Lego basically said "If you guys want a verification, then here you go!" and just made the legs a bit different. (No offence to you guys!) So I think the spiderman is just..same old!
Iron-Spider: Now this character is quite cool, but I didn't like it too much, but I'm not really a Spiderman guy, I'm more of a Deadpool guy so you might have a different opinion on this.
Sand-Man: Now this character is the best out of them all, because of detail mostly, and it looking like he's half sand, and half not so that is a good detail to him!
Rhino: Now this guy is a guy you can easily make at home by customizing him, in the giant suit, or not, mostly because of the star wars head, torso, and legs, so he's mostly easy to make at home.
After all! This set is not Lego's best set, but not the worst, I just hope that they take some of the advice people have told them, to make they're next sets better!
Well, I'll see you at my next review, and have a good day!
Chai! ;)

"No Hero Get's Bigger Then This"
" This set is amazing! Why you wonder? Well I am here to help convince you to get this set for you're self, Son/Daughter, or a friend, or family member! Now let's get started with the Mini-Figs
Ant-Man: This character is really great, and I love the helmet, except that you see his mouth, but the design of the helmet itself is really cool, and the printing is really neat.
Hank Pym: He is a really neat character, except that his printing is the same shade for the belt, so I only see the red, but that's alright, his body printing is really standing out to the pitch black printing everywhere else, but it keeps him visible.
Yellow-Jacket: Now this Mini-Fig is my MOST favourite in this set, because of his mask!! Mostly because the yellow glass shields show his eyes, but then around his eyes, it has almost a printing that makes him look 'Yellow Blood Shot' or crazy! Which makes him the best out of this set. (After all that's my opinion though) One problem with his lasers I think they could've improved, is since in the movies they were sharp laser tips, Lego could've used the Lego Spears and use Lego Cylinders until you get to the tip of the spear, instead of having the stud shooters, but that's alright. One other problem is that he has back weight due to all the details added on his back, so you may have to position him leaning a bit, or you can just use studs to place him on.
NOW TO THE SET ITSELF!
The Flying Ant: This is really cool, and I love how it's so flexible, so when the person you bought it for, or you're self, if you're playing with it and Ant-Man stops Yellow-Jacket, you can use the Flying Ant, and stick Yellow-Jacket's feet onto the stud at the mouth, and use Ant-Man to fly it away!
The Giant Bricks: This is a really cool detail that makes you feel like it's Ant-Man in Lego! So you have 2 normal bricks, and then you build a giant version of those 2 bricks, with 2 over sized Screws, that connect to the Over Sized brick, and launch it at Ant-Man, or Yellow-Jacket, or Hank Pym. As well as Ant-Man shrinking, the giant bricks make it look like he's tiny, then he's big with the mini version of the 2 bricks!
After all, this set is amazing, and I would give it a 6/10 and a B- I'll see you guys later!! Chai! "

Tanks and Shields!
" Hi there! Glad you wanted to see my review! :D Heres some of my tips, and advice before you get this set. So why not we get into the awesome reviewing!
First of all, let's get into our Mini-Figures!
Red Skull: He is a pretty good character, mostly because of his Red Skull! And a little bit printed body, with his Military leader uniform! Plus this is his first appearance on Lego! Woot woot! As well as he has a nice angry face, he usually would be presented with, in most action figure stuff.
Hydra Solider: Now, this has to be my favourite Mini-Fig! So he is amazing first of all with his bright colours standing out! He is also a amazing minfigure to all of you Deadpool fans! (As I am a huge one too!) he can be like Agent Bob From Hydra! Yay! One thing I dislike is his angry face, but that's no biggy!
Captain America: Finally, we found you cap! So, I think Captain is quite good, but I feel he is not standing out enough, but with Lego keeping Captain's suits looking differently every time, it truly keeps us all happy, or so I think. But his bright colours, and pinkish shield makes him 110% kid friendly! So you're child can enjoy him, IF you're getting this for you're son/daughter ;)
The Big Tank Thingy: Now! We got to the most awesome part of this set! THE TANK!!! So I need to get through all of this, so let's get started! Now first of all the tank it is, actually really stable! Which makes it friendly to all. Next best thing, would be the wheels! Why you ask? Well the wheels are actually so Friendly to everyone, that, they move up or down, and all around to the surface. For example...if you run it over you're had, the wheels will move inner a bit, and then when you drive it off you're hand, it goes up, and to normal sizing. One thing I do not like about the tank, is the Red Skulls seat, I feel it is to...plain, and not so Royal, to The Great Red Skull! But, it's not anything ending the world.
After all, if I had to give this set a grade, it would be a B+ B as in BUY..and the plus as in..plus. After all, for 40-50$ (This much money from where I bought it) is worth this set. "
