Has anyone confirmed that the smallest Guardians of the Galaxy set (67 pieces for 10€) is a 4+ set, or is it still unknown?

I don't think so. But the piece count does seem to suggest it. 67 pieces is closer to the piece count of 4+ sets than to the piece count of Eternals' Aerial Assault, which has 133 pieces.

 

Regarding the Iron Man fig, it could be a fig for the $500 hulkbuster, too.

That would be very interesting if the Hulkbuster is AOU-based. I do like the original one better but would be curious to see what the IW one would look like on a $500 scale

I thought I've seen a single source mentioning it in the past, but I couldn't track down who that was (or if I was just mistaken.

But then again, look at the 2023 Ninjago wave — regular 10€ sets have 94 and 148 pieces, and another separate 10€ set has only 64 pieces.

The last two 10€ Ninjago 4+ sets had between 50 and 60 pieces, so I guess it's safe to assume a 67 piece 10€ Marvel set is also gonna be 4+ (Shuri's Lab has 58).

Can anyone say the account of someone who has the image, if that's allowed? For some reason I can't see recent posts on instagram when searching a hashtag...

It starts with "l" and ends with "egamaniaco"

Asumed as much, I can't see it being from anywhere else

Yes but it would be way too early to get January leaks.

But if we are indeed getting 2023 leaks, we can only wait for the Morb himself to be revealed

It appeared so briefly and we've already had like two sorta variations that it'd probably be fine releasing in such a set without angering too many people - so could be a good choice if so.

The AoU Hulkbuster is definitely the more iconic version and had more screentime. I'd certainly be more likely to consider getting it if it's the AoU version. It just depends on how well it's designed along with the piece count.

Yeah, either Instagram is broken or it's doing something dumb with it's display options. Seems to be a common issue.

Many thanks.

Yeah, it's really annoying.

 

I would guess that that's the figure from the hulkbuster D2C, but the guy just slapped existing parts on the torso. I bet we'd at least see a new face print, that figure just looks thrown-together to me for some reason.

The Prophesized Day of Morbuilding is only what, 4 months out? Morbius images will leak within a matter of months.

I still cant find it, am I being really dumb? That account hasn't done anything since March 2013?

apparently it's "lega", despite it being written as "lego" on the watermark.

turns out the fella can't write their own name

[Ghostcat]

I still think the Quinjet makes the most sense for the fig especially it it includes the cradle.

 

it could work as a good polybag fig tbh. Its not that high a budget of a figure to be in one! 
 

 

im hoping the buster is the AoU one. The IW is cool with the curves but just not as iconic even though it had two appearances.

500 would be a great price point to do Veronica AND the buster tbh. 300 on the Ship and 200 on the mech could work well! It would end up more than double the size of my own at that pricepoint!

Great thanks, between that and the same issue mandaloriankjight had with instagram I thought I was losing the plot. Interested to see what set it comes in.

Really long time lurker here, but I had to chime in; everyone has been writing Hulkbuster and no one seems to be preparing themselves for the obvious $500 "Hulkbust."

I almost want that to happen, if only for the absolute chaos it would create. It's obviously exceedingly unlikely, but I also wouldn't put such a thing past Lego at this point.

You know what? Screw it. $500 hulkbust. No figures. Hulk's head and hands like BP.

Comment of the year 

[Scarilian]

What if the Hulkbuster is the AoU one... but it's not the only thing in the $500 set. Hulkbuster having around 2,700 pieces (Double the previous version) as rumored, Hulk having around 1,700 for a total piece count of 4,400 including an exclusive Iron Man figure. Just speculation, no clue what the $500 set is now.

Yeah, Instagram being a broken mess is definitely going to be a problem going into $500 set leak/rumour season (October) for it's stated 11th November release. It'll probably be important to check around multiple users as we won't be able to see their posts on hashtags unless Instagram fixes this mess.

Only Marvel characters that I could see people buying at that insane scale would be Iron Man with Arc Reactor and Repulsor Gauntlet, Thanos with Helmet & Infinity Gauntlet and Captain America with his helmet if it was with half of the shield as opposed to the hands. I feel those characters have had the most focus.

Oooh, that kinda looks neat. Still wouldn't get it but it's at least more interesting than just another Hulkbuster.

I think that's definately possible, and it would be pretty cool. Though the MOC image looks rather static, I'd hope they'd be able to do a more dynamic diorama.

Do we know if this was a mistake, or some dumb thing they're doing intentionally? Like, has anyone asked their customer service (do they even have customer service?). 

I know it's just about legoleaks, which aren't super essential info, but it does kinda spook me to be reminded how easily these sites can just... turn off the flow of information.
