    Thanks STL!

    Wow. This might push me to finally go on ebay! I am a total ebay newbie and I'm afraid I might go crazy once in.

    GP: I wasn't too keen ont he Tumbler at all. The Joker van + Joker mini-fig is nice but I will stick with my Batmobile + Two-Face van. I got lucky with the Batmobile. There was one lonesome box of it at Big W.

    In the Lego Batman game I noticed a few other sets crop up. The police vehicles were from last years sets and the Penguin Submarine is actually the totally awesome Aqua Raiders Submarine redone in black.

    I want a Catwoman minifig. Off to bricklink I guess!

    Mel: That Troll Warship will go down in price again. It's shelfwarming everywhere I go. Also it's just one huge boat mould. The build of it won't be very interesting. Much like the Coast Guard ship that STL got for his sister. Just full of big pieces and hardly any construction at all. I hope you find last years Castle Sets. Especially the Skeleton Carriage. That's awesome!

    I thought it was done in the same manner as the old Pirate ships. So like the ends and middle were separate parts so they make the boats longer/shorter set to set.

    I'm not keen on that tumbler either. I'd love to get my hands on that Two-Face set, and maybe some more goons from bricklink.
    And it was good to see the city sets used in the game, makes sense when you think about it.

    You're right! I've never actually built a pirate ship of any sort. Always saw the tanker mould which was one huge piece.

    The tanker mould is just one big piece, but that is so it can float in water.
    In one of the older city series they had a whole big thing about boats that could actually float.
    I got one of the old hulls somewhere around here. I found that, although it could float, one small wave to the side of the vessel would capsize it almost immediately

    That's why boat sets came with keels.

    Wow that's good if the price really drops again, I'm trying to complete the Castle Sets. Thanks to Pulse, he's giving me the Skeleton Carriage and Knights Defence sets 7090 and 7091. Then I also have the Dwarves set coming from ebay in the next week or so. Got that for AUD$59.50 shipped, which was a pretty good buy.

    Anyway I picked this up before the Kmart sale ended. Couldn't find anymore other sets which I wanted for the moment. Also good in a way, can ease the poor wallet for a bit.
