Whovastron Posted February 10, 2018 The box art looks very boring for basically all of them. A lot of open space where nothing is happening. The most interesting-looking one is the Sanctum, but that’s due to the interesting large build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoth Rebel Posted February 10, 2018 The boxarts are really dull.. I will probably only get the Milano set due to Iron Man and the Gaunlet, but the sanctorum set has all the sick extra ‘battle’ parts so maybe that one as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same goes for me, but thing is if you buy the Milano, you really have to get the Thor's weapon search to have the dropship included in the Milano. hahaha. Lego so smart.

ItamatTheGreat Posted February 10, 2018 Now we can finally see just what some of the play actions are. The springed blade on the corvus glave set looks cool. 7 hours ago, Kevii23 said: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

legosamsonite Posted February 10, 2018 I don't get how the thresher attack set has # 76103, but the cheaper hulkbuster set is #76104 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grimmfreak Posted February 10, 2018 I'm really not sure what the fuss is about the boxart... I found a couple of examples of boxart for the sets and they are horrible but is anyone really buying sets for the boxes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
THELEGOBATMAN Posted February 10, 2018 The box arts are cool, but there is something off about them. Like ones really good looking are Sanctum Santorum and Thrasher Attack. Hulkbuster looks okay. Weapon Quest and Ultimate Battle don't look good, but the worst one is Dropship Attack. It looks so empty, really bad one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoth33 Posted February 10, 2018 Maybe the box art is dull to avoid spoiling possible plot lines for the movie. I could care less about the boxes. The sets look great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bricky Dee Williams Posted February 11, 2018 I guess I was expecting the Wakanda Wall door to slide to the side. I like the vertical movement much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bricky Dee Williams Posted February 11, 2018 Just a note: the box images are official, but do contain a confidential watermark. I know The Brick Fan has the images from sets in the wild posted, but we unfortunately can’t share the box art images. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scarilian Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) Finally tracked down the box art - had no luck on Instagram so gave up and checked elsewhere. Here are my thoughts on the box art; Spoiler 76101; Looks empty, would have been helped by having a forest backdrop (where we see the pods in the trailer) and the second Outrider outside of the vehicle fighting Black Widow Infinity Stone is front and center but could have used an effect around it to show it's importance 76102; Box art looks fine here, other than Groot seemingly trying to destroy the machine that Thor presumably needs to create the weapon Infinity Stone is sort of randomly placed on the machine, almost did not notice it 76103; Box art seems fine, except for the backdrop. The segment of the wall we have is black, purple and white while the wall it is depicted next to is grey and black. Infinity Stone does not appear to be on the front, though i am missing the lower segment of the image 76104; Box art looks fine, could have used a tree background also given that's where we see Hulkbuster emerging from in the trailers. The Hulkbuster itself has definitely being enlarged on the box art in an attempt to sell the set, it appears to have a 'move arms up and down' function judging by the motion lines 76107; Box looks considerably wider than it needs to be making the Milano look incredibly wide and leaving considerable amounts of space in the image The new Milano is shoved in the middle while the Infinity Gauntlet, likely the main reason to buy the set, is shoved to the side. 76108; Box looks considerably wider than it needs to be Backdrop does not fit with the sanctum's backdrop in the movies and makes the Sanctum look inadequate given the movie Sanctum is four or so floors high. The side with the ladder seems to feature the play features - a wall and a window can be exploded out of the set Overall; Thanos in the corner looks odd, though i guess they wanted to help further differentiate these sets from the Avengers 4 sets which will probably have the core Avengers in the corner Most the sets suffer from poor layout, worsened by the lack of characters and the focus normally being on the least interesting part of the set Thanos' Ultimate Battle is the worst offender in this regard, the left side is basically empty other than the Milano's wing - it clearly needed an extra figure and the large box width just emphasizes this I'm not particularly someone who cares much about the box art, i tend to keep the boxes occasionally if it looks nice though. None of these i'm going to bother keeping the boxes for. Edited February 11, 2018 by Scarilian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was mentioned, but people were questioning how it was done. From the box art it looks like he's just kind of slamming his fist down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
