A Beyond the Spider-Verse set in April, huh? Awesome to hear that.

Keep in mind the franchise this film is in. The entire brand is undercutting emotion with humour, tone deaf is a absolutely likely thing for Mr Reddit himself to be. The main thing that would make me think he might be less intrusive there is he apparently leaves the scene partway into it

 

Spoiler

The russos tend to do a good job letting *some* emotional moments breathe, though. It is something that can vary director by director- not everone is Taika "let's make a comedy using the "Jane has cancer" and "god butcher" storyline" Watiti

Glad to hear they've finally managed to get on top of that, though I'm not looking forwards to the value if the ATSV one is any indication.

 

And the Doom statue! Somebody here was just asking for one of those! If it's done like the Iron Man from this year I'm sure it'll look great.

I'm kind of sick of display slop at this stage, a lot of them are nice but they take up set slots for playsets

And Spiderverse stuff is just Miles Morales, just give me more X-Men, comic stuff

  If you are referring to the Instagram post by bootlessbricks I'm not so sure that the figure selection shown is confirmation.

Shang Chi seems like a guarantee and John Walker would make sense, but why is Kevin Feige there if this is meant to confirm future figures? We had him previously with Avengers Tower, are we really getting him again?

I'm fine with the 'Epic Moments' collection style, though I do think the inclusion of the base is being used to up the price heavily. It's allowed us to revisit the Raimi series in fairly high quality and the printed tiles with the details of the film scene are neat. I think it's only downside so far has been trying to adapt upcoming films where we're not getting the most iconic versions of the characters and the figures are lacking some polish.

I agree in regards to the statues, Lego knows they cannot do faces well so it's unlikely we'll get statues of Captain America and Thor let alone Loki or Thanos - so we'll probably just wind up with Black Panther, Spider-man variants and probably Ultron. Ant-Man would be in the running if Ant-Man 3: Quantumania hadn't flopped. It is an issue every time we get buildable figures, they never end up completing a group of them. I get that some adults may want one buildable figure to display, but personally I'd want the core trio of heroes (Iron Man, Thor, Cap) or the main antagonist from the Avengers films (Loki, Ultron, Thanos). Maybe they'll do something like that in 2028 for the anniversary.

I think playsets are suffering currently, pricing is all over the place and the builds generally are lacking either in accuracy or detailing and we're running into the point where Lego is not going to be adapting characters because of what they were associated in prior, which is going to damage the appeal. Spider-man: BND for instance the best set is the Tank Chase, but neither set has Punisher despite him being part of both the scenes they are adapting and his dynamic with Spider-man being a core part of the movie.

I remember seeing GotG and then going and buying a bunch of '76019: Starblaster Showdown' so that I could have the Nova Corps and their heroic sacrifice OR the spinning gimmicks they had for monsters in '76060: Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum' or '76081: The Milano vs. The Abilisk'. Playsets generally lack that nowadays, maybe a destruction gimmick or a vehicle or the build is a character. So far this year my only sets have been the Raimi Legacy sets though I'll probably eventually get the Helicarrier and modify it though despite wanting a Helicarrier I'm disappointed by the scale decrease.

So far from 2027 I'm mostly just intrigued by the Raimi Legacy sets

There‘s gonna be a Marvel and Star Wars crossover set  Judging by the set number, it‘s classified as a SW set, but still worth mentioning here too

Also: slop this, slop that, I‘m slopping sick of slop comments slopping complaining about sloppy slop slop

Reported as
75481: Iron Falcon
Minifigures: Iron-3P0, War2-D2, Spider-Han, Captain Alderaan, Hulkbacca.

Bit nervous to see how this will look, if it's real. Though a potential dark red Millennium Falcon could be good for pieces.

[BrickBob Studpants]

I think this is our first-ever proper cross-over between themes, right? I mean there were themes like Time Cruisers that recycled elements from other themes or TLM that drew from multiple existing themes, but never a set quite like this

2027 is gonna be very interesting for sure!

[Lego Nostalgia]

It's  funny how DC launched the Superheroes theme and released before Marvel yet gets nothing

Studios and Adventurers is pretty bang on. I'll be honest I struggle to see how TLM doesn't count with stuff like them doing a a TLM rejig of the Castle sets that were on store shelves at the exact same time.

The logos and constant baby groots are the only ones marvel does that bother me all that much. The Epic Moments sets are if anything preferable than normal playsets to me- I'd rather have the background of the scene than a mech or truck that the hero doesn't need.

TBF the idea of spiderverse is that there are a lot more spider-man figures than miles morales. Now the CMF didn't always capitalize on that, but I'm sure the set will bring us more interesting spider-man figures. With only one set Peni and Noir aren't super likely, but it would be awesome to get them.

More comic X-men stuff would be nice but the issue is at the moment, nobody but wolverine is actually popular enough at the moment. Hopefully Doomsday gives them some popularity.

We had a strong january this year, but this just blows it out of the water. I'm very excited and think I'll be buying something like 4-5 of these, which is the most marvel sets I'll have bought from a single wave since infinity war.

I guess *technically* the actual official superheroes theme released some DC sets a few months before we got the marvel ones, but the two were announced and marketed at pretty much the same time, and for all intents and purposes started together. And of course our first superhero theme was spider-man.

 But the more obvious reason that marvel and star wars are crossing over and not DC and star wars is that disney owns both marvel and star wars. Disney does not own DC. You can cut down the amount of lawyers and money you need by quite a bit.

I don't consider Epic Moments as display slop, they're actually good sets with good figures and a nice build

I wish we'd get more than 2 per wave

It's the middle of 2026 and I might be the only one still waiting for Ronin/Endgame Hawkeye

How so? The DC and Marvel themes were both announced during the 2011 SDCC, and I think on the same day even  I remember the announcement of DC being first, with everyone particularly excited over Soup, and then shortly thereafter they hit us out of left field with the Marvel announcement. A double-whammy for the books for sure!

If you mean the actual release, this hardly counts since there was only 3 months between the respective first waves, and of course the first Marvel wave got released later due to the Avengers movie tie-in.

Also, speaking of cross-overs, DC was the theme to get roped into The LEGO Movie and even got its own separate theme with TLBM. So now it‘s Marvel‘s time for a whacky cross-over

Also also, DC doesn‘t get anything? Right after the Daily Planet rumour?

I understand now.

Bootless Bricks on Insta made a post claiming we're getting more Doomsday sets next year and featured pictures of Doctor Doom, John Walker, Shang-Chi, and Kevin Feige on the cover. I didn't interpret that as hinting/confirming that we're getting those characters in particular (especially Kevin Feige), but now CarterBricks has said in the Brick Tap discord that we're getting John Walker next year, and now UniBricks is claiming we're getting both John Walker and Shang-Chi next year.

[calebcold3]

Apparently Just2Good said something about how the BTSV set is going to be a Mech, but I can't find a source for that?

[spiderfan2000]

It'd be so annoying if they made a mech set for BTSV and it wasn't SP//dr.

A certain character from BND has become a breakout character so I'd expect to see more of said character unless they get derailed the way Wanda was.

Who is the Marvel character in the War2-D2 mashup supposed to be?

Yeah China has a big issue with skulls. even in the Daily Bugle they had a catalog or something with the Punisher Figure just a black minifigure silhouette 

I mean Lego hasn't made many Marvel characters likee (Juggernaut,Sabertooth,Comic Mystique, Silver Surfer) so I feel like it's just Lego only making Spider-Man stuff and what sells, it's only in 2024 that we actually got a complete X-Men team so

I feel the future for Lego Marvel is brighter than before, we really need new characters and more versions of characters that have only been made once

I knew they don't like ghosts, specifically malevolent ghosts, but didn't realize they don't portray skulls. Thanks for that info.

Lego's had a real issue making any X-Men villains outside of Magneto. There's no reason they couldn't have thrown in Sabretooth in any Wolverine set by now. Still remember in the 90s that the most popular Marvel characters were Wolverine, Spider-Man, Sabretooth, and Venom. The two biggest heroes and their archenemies. But with the X-Men and FF, we've at least seen characters from those franchises depicted (we got Wolverine, Deadpool, Magneto, Jean Grey, Storm, & Cyclops as well as Doctor Doom before the Fox ban). With Daredevil, it's just been unusual that outside of having him essentially slipped into the Daily Bugle, we've never gotten any character from his franchise.

But I agree, we need more new characters and more versions of previously existing characters.

I‘d say War Machine  

[brickbride]

Which is just as dumb as the C3PO one. A painted robot does not compare to a human in a robot suit. C3PO especially has a personality completely unlike Tony Stark. What's War Machine even doing there? He's far from an A-Lister.

And if Han were a Marvel character he'd obviously be Star-Lord, not a dumb pun on Spider-Man. If we just go by dumb, punny names, they might as well have made R2D2 "RThor2Thor". At least he actually handles tools.

In other news, I've seen the Spider-Punk set referred to as "Up-scaled Spider-Punk" which usually means buildable minifigs, so I'd expect it to be that.

It was already rumoured as such earlier this year, so that‘s what it should be

[brickbride]

@BrickBob StudpantsThe info is missing from @Scarilians list, though, so I just wanted to point it out.

If this "Iron Falcon" nonsense sells we might see more of it in the future. I'm looking forward to the Bat-Falcon (every character is of course a different iteration of Batman). And then to watching the SW collectors tear out their hair trying to decide whether to have an incomplete collection or to pay Disney tax twice for the Cinderella's Castle Falcon. ;-)

What I wanna see now is a LEGO Marvel and DC cross-over  You know, characters from the Amalgam universe like Dark Claw!

[NXS7]

I've seen people speculate that Captain Alderaan is a mix between Captain Marvel and Leia, which makes a lot more sense than Cap America. Unless Steve is actually Bail Organa, which such a weird thought since War Machine got picked for R2. If anything Iron Man should've been R2 and Vision as C-3P0

Also unless there's more to come, it's weird that neither Luke or Darth Vader are being covered here. If that's the case who would be our bet for Vader? Thanos? Ultron? Loki?

And some kind of mix between Spider-Man and Batman...

Spider... Man?
