Yeah, I purchased the Batmobile Two Face Chase set recently and it also came with the new orange brick separator. I was pleasantly surprised!
It's funny how many Batman Sets come with Brick Seperators... i now have 4 of them :P And its also weird because if you don't have a green one, you really can't use 2 Orange ones for breaking 2x1 plates apart cuz of the prongs (unless you break one off).
I have mixed feelings about new releases: I can't wait to see and get the new sets... but I can't figure out where I'm gonna put them or store them.

The Helicarrier breakout set I got also came with a Brick separator.

The newer ones look like this. They are a tool that LEGO created to help separate bricks without damaging them. They work really well on small plates that become difficult to separate by hand. I think they were only really available in LEGO stores and online but recently they have begun to include them in select larger sets ($50 and up?).

How come the Hulk's Helicarrier Breakout set doesn't come with a Bruce Banner minifigure?

Cool! I've been watching the show looking for potential sets and really haven't come up with any great ideas yet. I'm guessing they've been holding back on this set since they haven't actually fought Doc Ock yet. So I'm guessing its going to be based on that upcoming episode.

Looks like another $50-60 set by the looks of it.

Brickipedia has it listed as a $39 set.

If that can be $40, then the Zombie set should be that price as well!

^ Keep in mind, we haven't seen an official piece count for the Spidey set yet, so that price is based on conjecture. I will be pleasantly surprised if the MF Zombie set is $40, in light of the price-per-piece ratio on the Frankenstein Lab set.

Additionally, you have to compare apples to apples - this is a licensed set, and MF is an original theme.

I saw the movie last night AND IT WAS AWESOME! Too bad I did not get a Lego Avengers poster.

Know this is slightly off topic, but the orange brick separator is too small IMO. Smaller than the old green ones.

guess LEGO doesn't have full spiderman license.

Megabloks just has the rights to the new spiderman movie merchandise, LEGO can do anything they want with spiderman as long as it is based on the comics, hence the Ultimate Spiderman focus of the doc ock set
