Marvel Superheroes 2024 - Rumors & Discussion

[psqidexslizer]

All these Venom ideas, but why is no one talking about a Venomized Hulkbuster? The only thing Lego loves more than Venomizing is Hulkbusters. Venomizing a Hulkbuster seems like the obvious next step.

Venomized Luke’s Landspeeder will release shortly after that. But not before the Venomized Batmobile with Venomized Man and Anti-Venomized Jonkler.

Iron Patriot Hulkbuster would slap though.

I was wondering, with the new game Marvel Rivals getting all this hype, what do you guys think are the chances of us getting sets for that some day (if it manages keep interest up ofcourse)? I know lego generally stays away from games of existing licenses, but there are a few notable exceptions every now and then. Not to mention the game is very much like Overwatch, which ofcourse they have done in the past. I think even as early as the Alpha and the Beta there are already some very cool designs, both for locations and characters, that would translate very well into sets.

Is that not just Agent Venom? (iykyk)

I'm still so surprised we've never had an Agent Venom figure. He's Venom but with guns! What more do you need? Also He was prominent in the last couple seasons of Ultimate Spider Man, I'm sure if we had another wave in 2017 he would've been included, each year featured one of the SHIELD heroes from the show

I think he means Venomised Prof X

When it comes to Marvel, Lego is very reactive... if we do get sets for Rivals, it will be years after the hype has already died out.

What the hell is Nueva York ?

Nueva is Spanish for new, and York is a lovely little city, certainly my favourite in the north of England, probably on of my top 5 in the whole UK.

The first human settlements in the Yorkshire area can be traced back to somepoint between 8000 and 7000bc. At the time records began the area was under the control of a celtic tribe known as the Brigantes, but after they became hostile to Rome the Romans took it for themselves and founded the city of Eboracum in 71 ad. Eboracum was the then made the capital of Britainia inferior ( which included the north of England as well as the western midlands. Britainia superior made up the rest of the Romans British territory and was made up of Wales and the south of England. Famously the Romans never took Scotland).  Eboracum was also the place where Constantine was proclaimed emperor, though that was not planned as it's just cause his Dad died while they were visiting. Eboracum fell into decline in the post-roman era and in the fifth century (iirc) the Angles took Eboracum. The Anglo-saxon name for  Eboracum was Eoforwic. The city later became part of the kingdom of Northumbria and it soon became the chief city of the kingdom. In 866 the Vikings conquered the area and Eoforwic renamed again, this time to Jorvik. At this time it was the second largest city on the island of Britain, only London was larger in terms of population. 

The King of Wessex (an Anglo-Saxon Kingdom in the south west of England) United the Angelo-Saxon kingdoms as the first King of England. This English King known as Alfred the great defeated the Viking leader Guthrum in 878 and ended hostilities between the now united Anglo-Saxon kingdoms and the Viking ruled areas. The Treaty of Alfred and Guthrum was signed in 886 and allowed the vikings to keep their territory in the north and east which later became known as the Danelaw. Jorvik was the capital city of the Danelaw. The Danelaw didn't last forever and in 954 the reunification of England was completed by King Eadred when he took Jorvik from it's last Viking leader Eric Bloodaxe. However this united English kingdom did get taken by the Vikings wholesale in 1016 when Cnut became king of England. For a brief period between 1040 and 1042 Harthacnut ruled England, he was already the King of Denmark so in an alternative time perhaps they became one great kingdom? But in our timeline when Harthacnut died the throne went to the Englishman Edward of Wessex, know as Edward the Confessor.

In 1066 William the conqueror took control of England after supposedly being promised the crown by Edward the Confessor. However he was not the only one who claimed that they had promised them the throne after Edward ( who died without an heir) . Yorkshire had recently been the battleground between the other 2 potential successors. Harald Sigurdsson 'Hadrada' a viking king of Norway and previous chief of the Varangian Guard in the Byzantine Empire who was invited to take the crown by Tostig Godwinson. Hadrada successful beat the combined armies of Northumbria and Mercia in the battle of Fulford but by was ultimately defeated in the battle of Battle of Stamford Bridge by Edward's English Successor  Harold Godwinson (Tostig's brother and Edward's brother in law). With Hadrada dead Harold Godwinson then had to meet the armies of William of Normandy a fortnight later, but he caught an arrow with eye and died, leaving William as king of England.

Lead by Edgar Godwin son, the hier of the late Harold Godwinson the remaining Saxons of North allied themselves with the Danes. This included the people of York who were not content with William as king of England and started a revolt. After this failed the people of York revolted again. Seeing the danger of the rebellious north William decided to calmly listen to thier concerns and move forward peacefully... No that was a lie, instead he carved a bloody warpath through York and beyond in what was called the 'Harrying of the North' killing 75% of the population, causing vast famines and burning down many settlements. The lasting impact of this can be seen today when you look at the population density of North V South England ( of course it's multi-factoral but I digress). York though did prosper once again and became a chatted city with it's own trade charter, though not before an incident where Jews seeking refuge in York castle were threatened to convert to Christianity or die and the Rabbi convinced most of them to commit suicide instead. But those who didn't died anyway.

York suffered economic losses during the Henry the eighth's dissolution of the monasteries and the religious reformation that founded the Anglican church led to decline in the region. York had a strong Catholic base and an uprising of those opposed to the religious reform occured in 1536. Even after the Tudor period York remained a centre of Catholic rebellion, being the birthplace of Guy Fawkes, of the bonfire night gunpowder plot. In the English Civil war York was allied with the royalists how ever parliament forces took the city in the summer of 1644. The parliament forces won the war and English monarchy was dissolved. Oliver Cromwell lead the country as Crown protector and made it into a puritan state, he avd his successor after his death were immensely unpopular and In 1660 the monarchy was restored, with Charles the Second as king. Oliver Cromwell's corpse was dug up and beheaded. A Dutch colony called New Amsterdam came under English control in 1664. Charles gave New Amsterdam to his Brother who was the Duke of York. The (grand old) Duke of York had New Amsterdam permanently renamed New York in 1674. During this era York became less of a trading hub (being outpaced by Hull and Leeds) and more of a cultural centre. 

In 1839 York became connected to growing railway network. The railway allowed for faster trade, meaning new industries could start in York. Chocolate factories for example, with 2 prominent ones opening in York in this period, namely Rowntree's and Terry's. Railways and chocolate now dominated York. In 1935 Rowntrees invented the Kit-Kat.

Both the Rowntree confectionery factory and the main train station were bombed by the Luftwaffe during the Baedeker Blitz as part of the second world war. But York Survived the war and started to lean into the tourism industry. In 1968 York's historic centre received a conservation designation and many museums have opened since, including the Jorvik Viking Centre, the National Railway Museum, the York Dungeon and York's Chocolate Story.

Nueva York in marvel is an alternate version of new York. It is the home of Spider-Man 2099 and features as the home of the headquarters of the spider-society in the second spider-verse movie (Across the spider-verse).

Fun fact - I started writing this before anyone else had responded to the Nueva York question but, I had to stop partway through writing the brief history of York in order to catch my bus to work and do some work at work.

Instead of another modular next year, I hope we get a UCS Sentinel instead with minifigs posed around it and a small wreckage or danger room build to supplement it.

York is a wonderful city. Very nice bakeries and historical architecture there. As well as a most excellent Tabletop gaming shop.

Charles the Second  

Obligatory song.

Why is it that whenever a thread becomes an aslume there are british topics involved?!

It starts with a “Tower of Fate,” Mara Jade or Venom Horse and then rapidly evolves into something that’s terrifyingly insane.

That would actually be an excellent Marvel D2C. And then DC can have a modular Arkham or Daily Planet. (Or Oa!!!)

I like this idea, but at the same time, two X-Men modulars in a row seems unlike. Plus, I’d rathe get a Sentinel that’s in scale with the one in the mansion.

But, since you brought up the idea of a giant buildable figure, how about a giant brick built Galactus with the Fantastic Four as next year’s D2C?

If not a Sentinel, then maybe Mastermold with 1-2 regular Sentinels like the one from the X-Mansion included also.

Honestly, for me at least, the ideal thing would be to make them their own sets in the same vein as the up-scaled minifigure from a couple of years ago. They could do a Sentinel, Galactus, and Giant Man, and if they throw in a few minifigures, they could/would easily bump up the price.

Venomized Punisher or Venomized Deadpool are the only Venomized characters I'd accept at this stage

I'd rather have Full Metal Punisher/War Punisher or the War of the Realms punisher. Actually, give me War of the Realms versions of everyone in that event, please.

LEGO! Give me Venomized Joe Swanson, and my life is yours!

But actually this might be the funniest idea in the thread. You know he'd just speak in a normal Patrick Warburton voice. "Hey, uh, Peter. I've had the overwhelming urge to eat brains and fight spider man. I think I'm, uh, gonna go do that now."

Lego tends not to be the biggest fan of guns. They make parts of them, sure, but that's kind of impossible to avoid given the sheer amount of action licenses they have, and they still end up being goofy and unrealistic like the giant block pistols (Which themselves are now only really used as star wars blasters, I guess even they were too realistic) or the classic lego marvel double barrel. So all that said, I'd guess they aren't looking for ways to add more guns to their sets, and unfortunately Agent Venom isn't too different of a design from Normal Venom, so lego's fine just pumping out the same venom design for what, 5 years now?

As a complete side note, could we get the block pistols in marvel sets again? I'm not asking for an exact replica of your beretta or your smith and wesson, but I think the block pistols hit the right mix of "doesn't look like a real gun model" and "has the correct amount of barrels for a gun"

The last big marvel game based on more than 1-2 characters got multiple full waves using it's designs. I wouldn't be shocked- while Avengers did pretty poorly as a game, the set with the figure designs from it seemed to do just fine.

So after buying some of the August sets I have mixed feelings on new rubber capes. While they look good for display type of sets like AoU diorama, I feel like they are terrible for playsets and accuracy when it comes to minifigs. The fact these new capes limit the hairpiece choices due to the shape of the new mold means we get less accurate minifigs like Thor who needed Love and Thunder hairpiece in Ragnarok set instead of shorter hair. Does anyone think Lego will keep using new capes next year or drop the piece entirely like they did with 2018 Rebel pilot helmets from SW?

[calebcold3]

For the last few years, we've gotten an average of like 20 sets in total for LEGO Marvel from January to December. 

For next year in 2025, so far, we know we are getting: 

1. Iron-Man mech
2. Spider-Man mech
3. Iron-Man and Black Panther vs Red Hulk 
4. Hulk Monster Truck
5. The Venom Car
6. Marvel Logo
7. Across the Spider Verse set
8. Updated Civil War set
9. Another Endgame set
10. Iron Man 3 Hall of Armor 

So with that said, What do you all think the other 10 sets will be? If I had to Guess:

1. 2 Thunderbolts sets
2. 3 Fantastic Four: First Steps sets
3. 3 Buildable Figures (Spider Gwen, Carnage and Vulture?)
4. Advent Calendar (I'm hoping its X-Men themed) 
5. a D2C (maybe Helicarrier or Avengers Mansion?)

The rebel pilot helmets were almost universally despised, and I haven't seen that level of hate for the plastic capes. People won't shut up about how much they hate the new stormtrooper mold (let it go) but they've kept that. I don't think the plastic capes will disappear.

Though part of this is my conviction that lego has been phasing out cloth elements. I know what people will say/have said, but I stand by it. First the Kamas on Star Wars troopers, then some of the specialized capes like Strange and Batman '89, and now more generic marvel capes.

Based off past years the UCS set has been hinted by sets in the first half of the year with minifigures to lower production costs and follows the theme of the icons modulars. My thought is another spiderman ucs modular with the release of miles, anti-venom and spot like oscorp or a fisk tower; and these buildings could be a corner similar to this last modular release.

I feel like Lego tries some different things every couple of years to see if it sticks. Yes rebel helmet was hated upon the release and so was the Stormtrooper helmet yet they only got rid of one of those helmet molds. 
 

As for the phasing out cloth pieces it’s possible, but why? They are dirt cheap to produce and look good. Besides I can’t imagine them giving characters in other themes these new rubber capes( imagine Vader with this cape). 
 

Personally my only issue with rubber capes is that it limits hairpieces that can be used with minifigs and that’s a big problem.

Helicarrier could be an option, we got 76295, Lego when adapting MCU into D2C's sometimes ensures a cheaper smaller version is available for those who can't afford the D2C. 2025 would be the 10th anniversary of Age of Ultron which was the last appearance of the Helicarrier.

If it is a Spider-man focused set then I'd lean to it being some sort of labratory given the amount of symbiote variants we have that they could re-use - so maybe if it was Oscorp but adapted more as an industrialized location than a tower. Populate it with characters that have an association with Oscorp along with some of the heroes and then that'd probably work.

Will the Hall Of Armor be the same look and style as the last one or will they change the design yet again, I like consistency

[CloneCommando99]

I guess there’ll probably be a new CMF next year. So I’m going to lay out my predictions.

1) Blacksuit Daredevil 

2) White Tiger

3) Muse

4) Iron Heart

5) Sunspot

6) Jubilee

7) Cable/ Bishop

8) Spiderman (YFNS)

9) Doctor Strange (YFNS)

10) 1606 Antman

11) Kahhori

12) Marvel Zombies character

I‘d still like to see Ms Marvel‘s show outfit and Mobius (and/or OB)  Secret Invasion I‘m okay with not being covered, as it‘s so far the only MCU project I flat-out didn‘t like.

Daredevil characters are unlikely with the MA-rating they seem to be going for. Maybe the yellow suit from She-Hulk  The rest of your list sounds good!

Despite Echo being in the last series, I think it highly unlikely we get any TV-MA characters from Daredevil or Zombies. There's also no guarantee we get a CMF from Marvel next year.

That said, I have some guesses. Since the last series released, we've had or will have:

Loki Season 2 (God Loki, Möbius)

What If Season 2 (Kahhori, Captain Carter 1602, Hela)

X-Men '97 (Nightcrawler, Jubilee)

Agatha (Agatha, Joe Locke's "Teen")

Ironheart (Riri, The Hood)

What If Season 3 (Young Alexei, Character from Gundam episode, etc.)

Eyes of Wakanda (Noni, former Black Panther, former Iron Fist)

Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (Spidey, Daredevil, Doctor Strange, Iron Man)

Wonder Man? Vision? X-Men '97 Season 2, etc.

Previous series characters (Zemo, Kingpin, Scarlet Scarab, Ms. Marvel, Else Bloodstone, etc.)

Previous series characters (Zemo, Kingpin, Scarlet Scarab, Ms. Marvel, Else Bloodstone, etc.)

It's pretty likely given the successes of the last 2 Marvel CMFs. If not next year, I defiantly think it will be 2026 when we get the third CMF. 

My Guesses: 

• God Loki
• Kahhori
• Wolverine (Season 2/Brown and Yellow Suit)
• Nightcrawler
• Bishop
• Jubilee
• Wiccan (Joe Locke)
• Rio Vidal (the Green Witch AKA Aubrey Plaza)
• Ironheart
• Wonder Man
• Spider-Man (Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man)
• Daredevil (Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man)

IF The CMF Comes out in 2026, then one of these characters can be replaced by Vision and Ultron from The Vision show (The Vision show is aiming for a 2026 release IIRC)

There's always a possibility we'd get Daredevil,Kingpin and Punisher from DDBA, it's on Disney Plus and not a movie, yes it's Rated-TV-MA but Echo was too so they might as well, I'd say they'd be able to get away with it since they got away with Echo, Moonknight wasn't TV-MA as far as I know but it wasn't far off it
