Those look awesome! I'm liking the wolverine-type claws, could make for some awesome heroes. :D

I hope they come out with some mini sets like they did with the Indy line. I'm assuming they'll come with the second wave, which I'm assuming there will be, seeing none of these sets have the ostrich piece yet (which is also awesome)

The hair will go well with post-apoc figs too, I'll definitely get one of said mini-sets when they come out. I might even get the $30 set from the first wave...

I like the castle, with the upcoming Lion knights form kingdoms, it makes a nice knights templarish outpost.

ok, the brix are here, but where is the movie?

I'm begining to warm to these sets and not just because of the claw things, the sets themselves look cool.

I'm just worried about the price, otherwise the castle looks great. The cave not so much. I guess I'll grab some smaller set for the minifigs, like the marketplace now recently with the Indy-line.

Shit, now I need to decide whether to go for this, or the IJ marketplace set + the pirates II island set. GAAAHHHH :evil:

EDIT: I NEED ADVICE! I honestly don't know which one to choose, but here's the situation:

I got a $100 check from my grandma for Manly Santa Day, so I had it all planned out. I was gonna buy these two sets:

This would cost about $40, leaving me with $60 which I was going to spend on cd's. But now, these stupid sets have to come out. So should I get the two sets or the Fight for the Dagger set?

She wants to know what I buy with the check btw, so spending it all on Lego isn't really an option...

Also I'm working on some post-apoc stuff, so that will affect my decision.

I'm definitely buying up at least three of the Marketplace Race sets. Ostrimounts are going to pwn as part of my Apoc squad.

Doesn't she love you? Anyway, buy the IJ set + island + PoP-set and just *say* you got a computergame or something, that's noncomprahensible to old people and they'll just nod and be glad that you youngsters understand this rad new world of ours. Or just tell her Lego. My girlfriend didn't leave me and my parents still accept me. Stand proud!
