How does it look like a mustache when it goes over the nose, not under it? It looks nothing like a mustache... Also why would they design it based on one season of AoS from a few years ago instead of the proper comic book accurate look he's had since he was introduced in 2014?

To be fair, it's hard to criticize them for not making sets for shows that haven't even aired yet... Not to mention the only thing we have to compare this situation to is the Mandalorian which only got sets after the show ended and the only set for the new season that we know of so far is watered down and devoid of all the good stuff from the episode. Granted I doubt there's nearly as much secrecy around the Marvel shows as there is around the Mandalorian but I certainly wouldn't expect any sets based on the shows until after they're over or we'd only be getting watered down mediocre sets based only on trailer footage and outdated concept art-- or worse, have literally nothing to do with the shows. I'd rather wait and have sets that include more important spoilery stuff. Then again LEGO Marvel has a terrible track record with movie and show based sets on the whole.

I just saw the leak and it looks alright. Hopefully we'll get more Mandolorian sets later in the year so they can actually include spoilers. The worst part of it is definitely the "tent".

Ya if this set was Mando with the child on the swoop bike and Cobb Vanth with his Anakin's pod racer bike, that would've been perfect.

Are you freaking kidding? THAT is what we're getting for $30?? How big is that swoop bike going to be?? Also, a Tusken raider and a "tent". If it was a molded Bantha then I would forgive it but for one new figure, 2 repeats, one of which is essentially a microfigure, a swoop bike and a tent, a campfire, and a ballista, $30 is ridiculous. At most that sounds like a $20 set. There BETTER be more Mandolorian sets coming becuase this is woefully inadequate. *sigh* Beskar Mando better not be a disappointment because that's the only good thing about the set.

I'm glad to hear more people warming up to Ghost Rider!(no pun intended)

Agreed, it looks quite nice. I too hope that the power blast pieces are actually trans light green. I don't think they've come in that color yet and it would be super useful. Since they seem to be recoloring the wispy bit for his legs to stand on it would look pretty bad if they didn't recolor the blasts too but hey, when it comes to this LEGO theme they often make strange and frustrating decisions.

With the Mysterio figure it could just be because the seem is facing forward. The head on the Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider figure is not gun metal grey, it's silver which is 100% accurate to the comics. White would not be accurate because he has a metal skull.

Awsome, thank you! The new picture is nice to get a slightly different look at the Ghost Rider figure. I'm glad to see the nostrils are better defined and there definitely appears to be some silver printing to help the details pop including on the teeth which might help them look a little better in person. I doubt the chain included in the picture is supposed to be from the set since the figure is stolen but it's nice to see how it looks with a silver chain as opposed to the trans orange one. I remain curious about what if any accessories will be included in the set for him. I would hope he'd get a chain at minimum and I kinda hope it's just a silver chain rather than the trans orange one to help differentiate him from the previous LEGO Ghost Rider and perhaps incorporate one or 2 of whatever blast pieces are leftover if there any not incorporated into the car but it's not a big deal either way. Mysterio looks really good and I like the recolored helmet. Edit: dangit, lego_fulcrum took down those pictures, does someone have another source for them? Edit2: Nevermind, I found a better one including a high quality picture of the back of the figure which has a nice level of detail and I'm glad to see they maintain the orangle print near the top to give the illusion of glow from the fire on the head.

What account did you find it on? Recent Instagram posts are still being hidden to prevent ellection misinformation so it's incredibly difficult to find new leaks and the accounts I'm following haven't posted anything new.

Same here, I would have been mad if they reused the Johnny Blaze head.

The head is silver because Robbie Reyes in the comics has a metal skull which they ditched in the live action version. Ironically, had they made him more accurate to the comics, it would've likely been easier and cheaper to film and then they likely wouldn't have had to reduce his role on the show and rearrange the whole plot of season 4 because they blew most of their cgi budget on the skull effects early on but hey, "creative decisions" and all that.

A couple things I've noticed about the Ghost Rider figure that make me like it more: one, because the picture is a little blury it looks like the nose area is just a triangle but zooming in you can tell there are 2 clearly defined nostrils like there should be which helps. Two, I really like how the top of the torso has an orange fade printed on it to give the effect of the fire glowing and reflecting off the leather. That's such a nice effect that they didn't have to add. Also, side note there seems like there might be some silver reflective printing which isn't really showing up in this picture which would help some of the details pop. I think my biggest problem with the face is the teeth aren't separated like they should be. If they extended the black printing to divide each tooth that would go a long way. Maybe there's some silver printing on the teeth that helps separate them and will be more apparent in person but I won't count on it.

I'm glad to see someone else likes it! Thanks! I totally agree. Like I said, this happens all the time because people's expectations are always too high because we often fail to consider the other factors that go into designing a product, especially one where the primary target is kids. I quite often fall into that trap as well because I'm a passionate fan but this time I was able to temper my expectations based on the previous Ghost Rider set and how the LEGO Marvel theme tends to be overall. Given how LEGO Marvel usually is, this figure and the set overall could've been so much worse but it's turning out to be pretty good. Not perfect by any means but within the context of this LEGO theme, it's pretty darn good. Like you said, for $20 this set is a steal.

*rolls eyes* It doesn't remotely look like a "female torso" Robbie's a skinny dude and there are SLIGHT grey lines on the sides of the figure to denote that. It's almost like people have different body shapes or something....

Yes I know I'm biased to some degree and yes the face could've been better but I guarantee that after we get official, hd pictures and especially by the time the set comes out more people will be okay with it. This kind of thing happens EVERY. SINGLE. YEAR. People also fail to realize if it was 100% accurate it would be too scary for the target demographic aka little kids and LEGO would get a lot of complaints from parents. People need to understand there are going to be obvious limitations and I've accepted that. That doesn't mean I love it but it figures into my view of the figure. Like I said, I had the same problem with the first Ghost Rider minifig but because of that my expectations were adjusted for the new one so I wasn't surprised to see it was toned down too. A lot of people were unhappy with the Ghost Rider figure as well as the bike(despite being accurate to the Hell Bent and Heaven Bound comic arc) the same way people aren't thrilled with this figure and his car. Mark my words, after the set releases there will be a lot of people saying "it's actually not that bad" because again, the same thing happens every year, in every theme. Hell. I don't just see that every year in every theme with LEGO, I see it in every fandom I'm apart of including Transformers and Star Wars and it amuses me greatly.

A lot of people hating on the Ghost Rider figure but I think it kooks great! Sure the face could've been done better but so could the previous Ghost Rider. It seems LEGO intentionally tried to tone down how scary it should be. Also let's be honest, Robbie's helmet skull was always going to be tough to pull off as just a print on a minifig head. The biggest surprise to me is the level of detail in the torso! I totally just expected the white rectangle shape and a few creases. I think people will get used to the figure the same way they got used to the Johnny Blaze Ghost Rider figure. People didn't like the face on that one at first either, myself included. The new Miles Morales looks excellent and the new generic Spider-man looks fine though I do appreciate the arm printing.

Man oh man am I insanely hyped after watching episode 1 of season 2!! I'm so happy to see one of my all-time favorite Star Wars characters make a comeback! Also, I really hope the "hero vehicle" set we're getting comes from this episode because there's definitely a cool vehicle in this that would fit the price point and would be amazing, especially with the figures that could be included!

I have a feeling it's a UCS-style brick-built nanogauntlet with an exclusive version of an Ironman minifig with his his own little nanogauntlet to replicate his final heroic act. Hopefully it's a massive playset with tons of new figures but I'm not holding my breath.

It's so freakin' annoying. If you're going to show us the figure then just show it! Don't jerk us around. As it is, it just looks like a bunch of the old Ghost Rider figures. If it actually is the new Ghost Rider, I'm a little surprised to see he'll have the same flame color because based on the catalog picture it looked like he'd have a much lighter color to better mach the flames on his car. Then again the Johnny Blaze Ghost Rider figure's fire didn't mach his bike.

I'm very glad to see the green version of the Bigtime suit, one of my absolute favorite Spidey suits, and I'm very glad to see I was right about Doc Ock and how he's definitely inspired by the PS4 game. The Spider-cave still looks awful so I'll bricklink the Bigtime suit but I'm more compelled to get the set with Doc Ock. I'm also glad to see the arm printing is going to be on seemingly all of the generic Spider-mans this wave. This was all nice but now give me better pictures of the Ghost Rider set that's what I want most!!

Of course the person who leaked it would tell you it's real. Personally I hope it's fake. It would suck to finally get the Bigtime suit only for it to not be the more iconic, cooler looking green version. Or heck, I'd love for it to be the Anti-Ock suit.

While possible, the head they chose doesn't really fit that design. I'm leaning more toward it being ItSV inspired.

That would be kinda hilarious, not gonna lie. I'd rather see appropriately included accessories though.
