You can now order the DC Superhero Girls sets (at least three of them anyhow) and the Lego Batman Movie sets from the website. No store appearances that I've seen yet.
I ordered the 3 Superhero Girls sets just because they look cool and I think they'll be harder to find than the Lego Batman stuff, which I think will be all over the place when the movie hits. I think two more are due to come out later featuring Wonder Woman and Lashina. Lashina is getting a Lego minifigure...how cool is that, people?!? :)
The next set of minifig blind bags are all based on the upcoming movie.
My 5-year old nephew claims I have "too many Batman legos" which I keep explaining to him is a statistical impossibility. :)
This new minifigure release set is absolutely killing him. He's been telling my wife not to let me near the Lego store when they come out because I have "enough" Batman legos.
It's a game we play. :)
The "Must-haves" for me are Catman, Gordon, Heavy-Metal Batman, Batgirl, Nurse Harley, and of course Batman in a tutu. :)
One of the sets comes with an Alfred. I may need that one as well.
A friend of mine and I are trying to track down a store that will just sell us a box. There has typically been 4 complete sets per box for the last few assortments, so that's one set for each of us and and our kids.
If anyone knows anyplace online that will do this for us and can pass along the info, you'll win the people's ovation and fame forever!
I really like Vacation Batman’s Bat-duck inner tube, so I'll probably end up getting that one too, along with Catman.
I may get Glam Rock Batman for my Minifig Band. I really need a drummer and a keyboardist, but he'll go nicely with my Frankenstein Rocker, Mariachi, and custom Lemmy (made from the Series 4 Punk Rocker).
Put together a couple of the Superhero Girls sets (Batgirl's Batwing and Harley's Capes Cafe). My wife said the Friends-based sets tend to be simpler, and while these were easy builds, I have to say this is one of the better Batwings I've built and the cafe itself has a lot of fun tricks to it (window pops out, arcade machine connects to a catapult, etc.).
The big one (the school itself) will probably be this weekend.
Akiyuky’s latest "Great Ball Contraption" appears to be moving in seven different directions all at the same time, and although the machine does nothing but move small plastic balls along, you may find yourself watching it in action for hours on end.
The Captain America Jet Pursuit set is worth the $20, IMHO. The jet actually sorta looks like an F-14, Super Adaptoid is fun, the Cap figure can easily be retrofitted into a WW2-era Cap (I had a Brick Forge accessories pack that came with the blue A helmet and the original shield), and best of all, a Kamala Khan Ms. Marvel figure (which is ultimately what sold me on the set). The extra long arms are a good representation of her powers, though I wish it came with regular style arms, too, to swap out with, but that's a small complaint.
I think this minifig set is much stronger than the first one. The must-gets for me: Killer Moth, Apache Chief, Black Vulcan, Wonder Twins, Clock King, and Black Canary.
The probablies: Doctor Phosphorous, Killing Joke Joker (aka Vacation Joker), and Hugo Strange.
The maybes: Jor-El, Zod, and Swimsuit Batman (only for the dolphin—my Aquaman needs a Porm).

Definitely want the JL Party set too.
I see what you did.
Right now my custom Aquaman has a couple of octopuses and a shark to hang out with, but no dolphins. Gotta fix that!
And I’m done! I got all the ones I absolutely HAD to have! And hey, I tried the “feel” technique to figure out which was which and I was right with all 5!
Walmart is discounting a lot of Lego sets right now. The Lego classic box sets are $10 a piece. I picked up the Lobo set for $15 and the Thor/hulk arena set is $35.
