Brad-The-Brick Posted May 17, 2009 I recently learned that there shall be a Spiderman 4. I think Lego should get the rights to make sets before %$#@ Megabloks beats them. I would love to see this happen. What are your thoughts on this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spyder Posted May 17, 2009 I too would love for them to get the license, but they didn't get the Spiderman 3 license, so it probably won't happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darkagent Posted May 17, 2009 I agree, it's not coming back. They've passed on Harry Potter in recent years and they didn't even release any new sets for The Dark Knight, when they still had the Batman license. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain REX Posted May 17, 2009 Never going to happen. Lego didn't do spiderman 3, Megatrash did. But I still fail to see, how LEGO got spiderman 1 and 2, but megatrash got the rights to spiderman 3. I also hate that megatrash got the liscense to pirates of the caribbean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dadster Posted May 17, 2009 Yeah - I don't think I'd even make a "friendly bet" on Spidey Lego returning. Disappointing to be sure, but then, so was the 3rd movie IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mraz Skintas Posted May 18, 2009 A musical?!? Why, Marvel, why? Well, we could get singing minifigs... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MaxGoof Posted May 18, 2009 Spider-Man 4 is *NOT* a musical. There *IS* a Spider-Man musical coming to Broadway next year, but it has absolutely nothing to do with the 4th film. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yloquen Posted May 18, 2009 I guess the bottom lines have made their minds about continuing those licenses. They most certainly wouldn't have stopped their licensed lines - Harry Potter, Batman, Spiderman if they were profitable. It seems that Star Wars is the undisputable king of licensed themes and Indy seems to be going strong too. But apart from sales, there is another factor - price of the license. If something is selling well, but the license is very expensive, LEGO might still be at a loss producing that franchise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
def Posted May 18, 2009 Never going to happen. Lego didn't do spiderman 3, Megatrash did. But I still fail to see, how LEGO got spiderman 1 and 2, but megatrash got the rights to spiderman 3. I also hate that megatrash got the liscense to pirates of the caribbean. I had no idea! I looked up those 'megatrash' sets, and they are mirthless. I'm not a big fan the Spider-man line, it doesn't seem the most logical LEGO toyline, but those sets looked like a money grab. As a 25 year Marvel comic reader, I've learned that they'll always reach a new low... (Spider-man Transformers being the last one I saw ) Yup, no LEGO for Marvel, they need every penny.

daxflame680 Posted May 18, 2009 Spider-man 3 failed, and the original Spiderman line wasn't that great, so I say no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Millacol88 Posted May 18, 2009 Although I would like to see a spiderman line that is more than just a studio-line tie in, I don't see it happening. IMHO, when a licensed theme is discontinued, it shouldn't be brought back. I don't believe it's happened before, and I doubt it ever will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin Posted May 19, 2009 Although I would like to see a spiderman line that is more than just a studio-line tie in, I don't see it happening. IMHO, when a licensed theme is discontinued, it shouldn't be brought back. I don't believe it's happened before, and I doubt it ever will. It's going to happen with Disney. LEGO had the Disney license (Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pooh) in 2000, only to discontinue it in 2001. Now they are going to bring it back in twenty-ten (2010), with Toy Story, Cars, and Prince of Persia. Never say never. The odds of LEGO bringing back Spidey are 1 in 100.

nintha Posted July 23, 2009 (edited) Is lego ever going to bring back Spider man sets with the third movie out and the forth movie coming out in a year? I would like to see more sets and an official black suited spider man and a venom minifigure. Edited July 23, 2009 by nintha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Who Posted July 23, 2009 Lego will probably not ever bring back Spider-Man. I think there is already a discussion like this somewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Navy Trooper Fenson Posted July 23, 2009 Also, Megablocks has the license now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SWMAN Posted July 23, 2009 (edited) No. Considering they skipped over Spider-Man 3, the chances are pretty much none. And I know you are new, but please search for a similar topic before you post. Edited July 23, 2009 by SWMAN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Omicron Posted July 26, 2009 No. Considering they skipped over Spider-Man 3, the chances are pretty much none. They didn't skip over it. They just didn't have the license at the time. -Omi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
