I really like those three suits, certainly wish one of the three wasn't locked in a $80+ set. I dont like the helicarrier personally and the tower I do like, im just too conservative.

Lego: makes mechs for almost everyone
Also Lego: doesn't make mechs that actually appear in the source material
True haha

I would love an Aim Mech set.
You could have Captain America with a normal 3 piece Moto and if they're generous, they could throw in a Scientist and Super Adaptoid minifig
$30? :D
That mech would be easy to replicate in Lego. Looks like old Exoforce mech.
Trans Blue with silver highlights???

Exactly, besides, this is a tank, and it looks like one, even with the hatch open.
I think it looks better without the stickers.
The fingers and thumbs are fantastic, make great fists.
I love these troops, would really like a mech in this color scheme.

Just got Hulkbuster, he's way better than I thought, very solid amazing build SNOT everywhere. So far that I've played with him, even on the shelf, his head looks great. It is designed to lean forward infact the legs force him into a forward lean. The complaints about the head are way, wayyyy overblown.

I hope there's more straight up ghosts, less possessed and less cryptids and maybe a brick built ghost. Id like to have something for my Stunt plane to hunt.

I just got the Mystery Castle today. It’s a wonderful design, the central part of it in particular is great. Though it could use a more in-depth transformation feature . . also there’s a lot of details and hints about the plot in the stickers.
There’s one easily missed sticker that shows a huge portal eating Saturn. Another one in the tower indicates that the three gemstones (red in the Prison, yellow in the Fire Truck, green in the Sub) unite together to create a portal, presumably to Nehmaar Reem’s dimension. Also while the instructions have you placing the gems on the top floor of the ‘manor’ area, there’s a receptacle at the top of the right tower that seems positively made for it. I figure that the plot will be about Nehmaar Reem collecting the three crystals and it’ll end in a mad scramble to stop him from bringing the completed array to the receptacle in the tower and opening the portal.
Just took a close look at the mystery castle. The pictures seem to tell a sad story. Like the Sliderman could be missing his wife, may have been corrupted or toopled by monstrous forces.

Is the summer wave the last wave?
I got tired waiting for my favorite Avengers set and got El Fuegos Stunt Plane. Might not go back, love all the little details. Skeleton Fuego is my favorite minifig now. Jack looks great. Kind of interested in Welcome to The Hidden side and maybe the subway. I think the Bus and the Firetruck look great, hoping to see more. Im in to the medium sized sets.

Just saw a new game trailer, I see lots of AIM mechs, I would certainly like one of those.
5 hours ago, Walter529a said:I know its just a joke, but Mega Bloks [Construx] has some pretty great builds and pieces right now. Also, yeah, it may look good at a specific angle, but only looking good at one angle still damages its look overall, the other Hulkbusters had to compromise too, but at least their heads looked good on different angles.
Yeah he never posed him properly, and he kept one shoulder folded over his arm for the whole review??

11 hours ago, HarryVader said:Out of these 4, I would say that Ultron has the best chance of being re-released. He's a classic Avengers villain and a pretty obvious choice for a villain character in the next wave of Avengers sets. Don't expect Cosmic Ghost Rider, Lego will probably never make the Punisher
Review of Hulkbuster is out. Our fears have come true. He looks like he's missing a head when standing up straight.
8 hours ago, HalfBloodPrince said:That helmet ruins the entire set now, everything else is fine, but Lego really should’ve made a new mold for that.
7 hours ago, HarryVader said:Yup. They should have went with the older style helmet (the dome piece). It’s a shame because the rest of the set looks really cool.
Guys its obvious its supposed to hunch forward, this reviewer is a megablocks for not properly posing it. The helmet looks great when viewed from the intended angle. I don't look that I look great viewed from under the chin either.
Where is this guy out, I want it badly.
I wondered about the knees, he says they're fragile...uhoh
Haha its been forever since I've been content filtered. I like it, simpler, better times, when people had standards. I miss it.
6 hours ago, Guyon2002 said:I really wish we could've gotten this in the Helicarrier set instead of the flying rectangle we got. The new footage from the game looks pretty good but I'm still not entirely sold on it. The AIM Agents are definetely overused in the sets but at least they're pretty accurate to the game.
Thats my first view of the AIM source material, they look pretty awesome.
5 hours ago, RobbieHxC said:The trailer for Avengers PS4 only makes me wish more that they had a set with Abomination in! Hopefully one day we'll get a bigfig of him
I hope he's not a big fig, i think he'll be built to match the hulkbuster.

The mighty Micros are too silly

Random, but is something preventing LEGO from visiting non Avengers characters.
- Ghostrider update, maybe even Cosmic Ghostrider
- Dr Doom
- Nova
- Classic Ultron

I think I'm like everyone else here,
- Hot Rod unnecessary (I would rather have the suit up circle)
- Needs one more unique suit
- Hamburger and Box details are fun
Sooo if you pick up The avengers tower, will you store your two extra suits here or there? I think there needs to be more Iron Man suits scattered about to make you want 2 of this.

Wow I was excited there for sec, thought we were getting a crazy nice minifigure pack.

That's a shame the styling of the chopper looks nice, I've never liked big figs myself though.
I'm really thinking about splurging on the Avengers Tower which looks great, has great minifigs, lots of great stuff inside. ....but July is a Transformers reveal month, so I might hold out to see what they unvail.
For sure I'll be getting the new Hulkbuster though. I believe it's notable for being one of the few mechs that are fully unclosed, especially at $40 price point. I love the body shaping and even the head print on the shallow dome (that so many people dislike). I do have a bit of a worry about the knee connections being C-clips though. My previous experiences with C-clips aren't good. But it might be due to microdust.... not sure just seems odd to support all the weight on C-clips.

3 hours ago, BigGuy4U said:Personally I welcome at the very least the $10 mechs, it's very rare that we even get Marvel sets at that price point and it's a nice way to get iconic characters at a low price if you don't want to spring for more expensive sets.
I'm here because of those sets. They're actually well done. ....now I'm leveling up to the Hulkbuster as soon as possible.

2 hours ago, HRC said:No more mechs please please please. It takes up valuable set space (though the celestial mech sounds dope). We've had enough mechs. I respect your guys' opinions, but no more mechs please. (Who am I to say, Lego can do whatever they want)
Well superhero sets are wide open because super heroes tend not to really have vehicles. Mechs are popular, the $10 sets are way better than Constraction sets, so why not. Actually, there are quite a few characters that should be mechs, and I'd like them.
Random, I'd totally buy a Nova $10 mech.
I'm more frustrated at some of the Spiderman sets. ....2 crawlers. Iron Venom, coming with a crawler instead of a mech lol but 3 venom mechs existing. Blah blah....
My personal wishlist,
1. Dr Doom: $40 Mech / or maybe a Castle
2. Titanium Man: $20 Mech is fine here
3. Crimson Dynamo: $20 Mech is fine again
4. Ultron: $30 Mech
5. Nimrod: $25 Mech
6. Sentinal: $80 Mech
But Lego has played it super safe with marvel, the last offshoot I remember was Detroit Steel, ugly looking mech and even I am not familiar with Detroit Steel. Was he in one of the TV shows or something?

2 hours ago, GoldenNinja3000 said:I mean yeah the old helmet makes his head bigger, but so does every other helmet piece LEGO uses. I think having the built in flip up function is worth the slight awkwardness, but more importantly for me I think the larger helmet captures more of the MCU style of helmet with its molded detail. Looking at Blazer next to the actual Hot Rod suit, the helmet has just translated very poorly with the newer mold because it’s so flat on the front. That flat front works great for Rescue and it’s more useful overall because the older mold traps you in that particular helmet shape, but my biggest issue with the newer helmets is that it just makes the new armors inconsistent with the older ones. Blazer and Tazer are clearly based off of Hot Rod and Blue Steel, but they don’t fit in with the rest of the MCU armors which is just what’s bugging me the most. Overall while I’ll always like the original mold best, I do like how useful the newer design is for non-MCU suits.
I get that. For you it's because your collection will now be awkward.
Other subject, who's going to get the next $10 mech? I really like those $10 mechs.
- Ironman
- Spiderman
- Thanos
- Venom?
So two good guys and two bad guys....
I'm guessing...
- Captain America
- War Machine or Thor
- Red Skull
- Abomination or Ronan

5 hours ago, GoldenNinja3000 said:I really wish that the new armors based off of MCU designs used the MCU helmet mold. The newer one works better for Rescue and certain Iron Man suits for sure, but not for the 3 new “MCU” armors. The mold is still in production from last year’s sets and they’ve mixed the new helmet with the old one in the same set in the previous Hall of Armor, so I don’t see why they couldn’t have done it again.
Everyone is going to have their own opinion, but the flip up style helmet makes Ironman's head bigger than everyone else, and I never got used to it. The new ones are much better in my opinion and I have since gotten back into Marvel Lego very much because of the change. Also the prints on the helmets are super sharp.

1 hour ago, HRC said:No, I don't think we'll get an Avengers game Taskmaster.
I respect your opinion about the Hulkbuster set, yes, it does look cool (not the head). I might get it for the new rescue and the cool body design, but I want to save my budget. The head is bad, but I'm happy some people like it.
The movie Taskmaster design, or the Minifigure? I think the movie design for Taskmaster in the Black Widow movie is extremely badass-looking. The Minifigure, on the other hand, doesn't have leg printing, or a shield. So I think Lego was lazy. But the head and torso actually look pretty accurate to the movie, so I accept it.
It would be super cool to have a bigger black widow set, but I don't think that it will happen. Red Guardian would probably be an SDCC exclusive (But SDCC got canceled so I don't know). I would LOVE for another set to be released though.
Oh the movie design itself, to me, is no where near as cool as any other incarnation of the character. Not Lego's fault for sure.
That said the Lego version looks better than movie. But missing leg print and shield sword detail

I'd love a brick built ghost myself.
Would also like a Spitfire whose shark grin nose art is part of the haunted conversion.
