    Surely there's room for both iconic movie cars and standard racing cars in the Speed Champions theme.

    The Aston Martin is an extremely iconic vehicle, and surely they'll prioritize detail over play features for this version.

    Some films don't require a whole theme, just a recognizable vehicle and minifig. I think a Speed Champions subtheme is a good compromise.

    Lego know that Wolverine will eventually be coming to the MCU. So they are starting to test the waters now, to see how well he sells with kids.

    It's even more basic than that.

    Marvel owns X-Men film rights now, so they are going to lean hard into elements of X-Men that sell well.

    They made minimal X-merch when the Fox films were out because they didn't want to advertise a competitor. Not to mention, the only Lego sets to release sold extremely poorly.

    Now they can do as they well.

    Horns like printed on the side of the head

    That wrap back to a circle on top? That wouldn't fit properly. Or they just abruptly end?

    Would there even be room, or a flat space above the eyes? The eyes would be close to the top, maybe even in a rounded area.

    Still have trouble envisioning it. Hopefully it's just not the case.

    HOT ISSUE: Croki might not even have the crown and it breaks my heart :sad::damn:

    Wow, this series is a complete and total waste! :sad:

    (In all seriousness, if they made a dedicated Throg mold, I think they'll make a Goki one)

    "Well, this at least explains Throg's inclusion in the CMF. Honestly, the whole CMF series starts making more and more sense with each new information. 

    If that's the case, it must based on concept art. I sincerely doubt they would spend the money on finished effects and then cut the scene.

    Which doesn't mean that an official announcement of the series is necessarily soon, but it does mean that from this point on if they were to announce the series, it wouldn't spoil anything viewers of the shows wouldn't know about. Which is a big step forward to getting closer to the official reveal.

    I agree, always expected them to wait until this point. Hopefully they can beat the leaks for the rest of them...

    Yeah I saw someone say that. Pity, seeing as a Spider Strange fig would have been really cool. Makes me wonder if other parts of the list are bogus too. 

    No way they could have gotten Gator Loki right by guessing. Maybe it's just some misunderstanding like Spider-Woman being in the Bugle.

    Brickpics made some really good figures and updated versions of characters on his Instagram. His Eddie Brock and updated Ben Urich look phenomenal!

    Wow, thanks so much. Appreciate the shout out. :blush:

    I really like the figures in far from home set, but the builds being 4+ are awful and the parts themselves are also non that useful, and I haven't even mentioned the price yet... I think I'll either get it if there is a suitable discount or just hope the figures show up else where.

    Sometimes I feel like the 4+ sets are excuses the create good figures but put very little effort into the builds and charge a lot for the amount of pieces. No 4 year old is going to care that much about exclusive figs, but a bunch of AFOLs are...

    Here's the lowdown on the new suits. They obviously want to include the main ones from the movie without spoiling any of the main plot points.

    The Upgraded suit appears with the modified belt area, because that's the one he starts with in the film.

    The Integrated Suit is an amalgamation of the Upgraded suit and the Iron Spider. The Funko version also shows it has the ability to cast spells, so Strange and Peter probably work on it together.

    The Gold suit is a little more mysterious, but I think I figured out its use. Electro is one of the confirmed antagonists, and the suit resembles shock-proof Spider-Man suits from the comics. The funko version also has exposed circuitry on its wrists and blue lights above the eyes, so this seems extremely likely.

    The minifigures are nice and all but it just baffles me how they created a new head that's perfect for the Watcher and then didn't use it on him?

    They didn't give him a big ol' head because that's not what he looks like in the show.

    I think this set is fantastic. It has Tony Stark in a Black Sabbath shirt, a better Valkyrie, and the Watcher himself! They even gave Valkyrie a bottle of booze :laugh_hard:

    It's a great fig selection, and the mech itself is visually interesting with those awesome teal highlights. I personally prefer this to Iron Monger, I think the scale fits it better too.

    Sure I'm getting sick of mechs, but this is miles above the War Machine one or any of the small ones.

    Spider-Man (yellow Homecoming jacket), Iron Man (ugly sweater with 2020 helmet and hairpiece), Thor (2020 with IW hair), Black Widow (2020), Captain Marvel (2020 without helmet) and Nick Fury (2020 with grey beanie).

    Is Lego Club News reliable? I'm not inclined to believe it yet, but that's probably because I don't want to. :grin:

    And now that you guys mention it, with the series being dominated by What If figs, it is rather disappointing they didn't include the Watcher.

    Intern: "So..... should we give them another Daily Bugle teaser today?"

    LEGO: "Of course not you idiot! Another day another Looney Tunes post! :devil_laugh:"

    The funnier part is that it's the same one they posted last week, except they took out Roadrunner with the Woody legs and deleted the old one.

    No unsanctioned fun allowed. :angry:
