Marvel Superheroes 2026 - Rumors & Discussion

[NXS7]

The minifigure from the upcoming Secrets of the Avengers book has been revealed as Black Panther (T'Chaka)

No leg printing is a shame, thought these books usually do a good case of detailing, but still a good looking figure

T’Chaka is a cool figure to get. I like this

At least it‘s consistent with the other BP minifigs, none of which had leg printing  As for the minifig overall: a surprising choice, but a welcome one! I was hoping for a new character rather than a new version of an existing one, and I got my wish ^^ Not on my radar of missing MCU characters, but an excellent idea nonetheless!

Helicarrier pictures are out. That Stealth Suit Cap and Bucky figures are perfection. I hope we get these in a smaller set someday, people have been asking for a Winter Soldier set for years and it sucks having them be locked behind the paywall for now.

Set itself looks good, but I’ve no personal interest in it.

I understand what they were going for with the decisions made and I think, for what they were aiming for, it's probably the best that we could expect.

Ideally you'd take the design of this one and make it the scale of the 2015 version. Then add the nanofigs, nanofig control room, spinning blades and light functionality. You'd lose the swooshing and I doubt you'd have room for an interrogation room or lab, but they never gave us nanofig Black Widow, Loki or Hulk so wouldn't be able to replicate those scenes anyway.

Man, seeing those amazing Stealth Suit Cap and Winter Soldier minifigures is so depressing knowing how much it’s gonna cost to get them.

[BrickBob Studpants]

Wow, every single one of the minifigs is a banger! Makes the 2015 minifig selection look shoddy in comparison

The set itself looks great as well! Too bad there are no nanofigs this time, but we do have some „studfigs“ like in the midiscale SW sets

[squiz18]

I didn't have much interest in the Helicarier when it was rumoured, but I do like it now it's been revealed. If it was half the price I'd be tempted but I can't justify it for that price. The figs are good, hope they show up elsewhere.

I was planning to get the helicarrier, and it's a good looking set, but being a larger version of the midi-scale set from last year makes it a non-starter for me. I really wish they'd have done a 'lego-squished' minifig version, a la the old Avengers tower sets. I suppose I'll MOC my own, maybe with some of these pieces once they hit bricklink.

I don't have much interest in T'Chaka himself, but the torso will definitely be used on my T'challa if I ever get ahold of it. I think BP generally looks cooler with the collared cape and sash, it makes him look more like a king and less like a generic super.

Exactly my thoughts.

I think Clone Commando was the one who said it, but please lego, Quinjet Microfighter. (Or more realistically, an Epic Moment set of their 1v1 at the end of TWS)

Given Lego Marvel’s proclivity for releasing an Infinity Saga jet / spaceship build every year, I always thought (another) Quinjet set based on CA:TWS makes a lot of sense. 

Infinity Saga sets don’t always tend to be accurate anyway, so a set amalgamating the opening Lemurian Star scene, Cap’s escape from SHIELD, and his first fight with the Winter Soldier would be an awesome way to get Stealth Suit Cap, Black Widow, the Winter Soldier, and Rumlow / a generic SHIELD / HYDRA agent. Even if Stealth Suit Cap is never in a system set, I hope this (and Venomised Cap) at least set a precedent for us getting properly detailed Captain America minifigures moving forward.

That's another excellent option. Though it does remind me of that "Imagine being the family of the guy Bucky threw into a propellor and now he's congressionally representing your district" meme.

If we're gonna mix and mash film acts for the set, could we add Batroc in? Feels like the only way we'd ever get his minifig.

I suddenly want a Torment minifig for no particular reason.

[CF Mitch]

Dang it, those Cap looks absolutely brilliant in the Helicarrier  
Winter Soldier's head is very well done, too, but otherwise I do not see much appeal to the minifigure compared to the current ones.
Same with the others, really. Nick Fury even only has a new head, I believe. Not sure about Hill and Coulson. The latter seems like it's the same as it's previous version, but Hill does have some differences which seem nice.

The build itself looks good but I have no interest in, still being very satisfied with the current S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier.

Regards,
Mitch

Shocker just can't catch a win, man. The editors might hate him more than Peter (who am I kidding? The whole story you're talking about is just marvel trying to figure out what else they even have left to take from Peter.)

Shocker and Ultimate Peter were a small price to pay in exchange for this victory.

But Flash is being set up to be the next you know who unfortunately.
