Yes, the UCS Helicarrier included planes that weren't Quinjets. .https://images.brickset.com/sets/AdditionalImages/76042-1/76042_Front_03.jpg Also, there was the Captain America jet from the Kamala Khan Ms. Marvel set. And a jet for Hawkeye in the Hulk's Helicarrier Breakout set from The Avengers (2012). And a jet in the Black Panther pursuit set from Civil War. And a Wakandan jet in the Royal Talon Fighter attack. And the Blackbird in the X-Men vs. Sentinel set. And pseudo-planes in a couple of the Mighty Micros sets. A ton of (generally bad) jets. The Royal Talon and Blackbird are probably the two I think are more interesting than a standard Lego jet.

I tried to edit, but I'm on mobile so it took forever and everyone got to see the original version, but I was thinking of the Armored Adventures outfit (and to a lesser extent, the Earth 616 Model 3) upon which the movie suit is based.

It's an indigo or a blue-violet, not a simple blue like Lego's Earth Blue. The closest Lego color ever is probably 196 Dark Royal Blue (BL's Dark Bluish-Violet), and currently both Earth Blue (BL's Dark Blue) and Medium Lilac (BL's Dark Purple) are kinda close but not exact. But if they're going to diverge from movie accuracy anyway, I'd prefer they err on the side of loyalty to the source material.

How many War Machines are we on now?

It's definitely the same helmet, they do have that indent, but the angle and lighting here just makes it look more prominent. And yeah, if I were making a wishlist, I would've voted for dropping the jetpack in favor of a torso armor piece with the same print on the armor as on the torso (a la Mark 33 Silver Centurion or the pseudo-Mark 37 Deep Sea armor). A new helmet mold would've been cool. But the print is very impressive.

The sides don't have the small blue markings?

Technically, the wings they used aren't accurate. But they're at least close to the First Avenger (2011) and The Avengers (2012) suits instead. Also, the helmet has a hole in the top, resembling the hole in the top of rubber minidoll hair that's used for accessories and makes the wigs easier to remove. But assuming this is legit, which at this point it seems very likely it is, I'm quite pleased with the piece. I've been unhappy with the head/headgear on all the previous official Cap figures, enough that I display my Cap with a head and hair I chose myself. I'm definitely going to buy multiples of this piece.

The whole kerfuffle over the Thanos and Hulk figs' quality compared to previous versions reminds me why I don't like big figs as much. If they even just had the same customizability as regular minifigs, people who're unhappy could take the helmet off Thanos, or swap the printed or molded feet from one Hulk onto a newer one. Bigfig torsos are already multiple molds, with usually 1-2 of those being unique to the character.

I've tried on a few browsers, but I can't see any of your photos. I think they're private or something.

I think they're asking for feedback on their suggested figure.

The build is yet another Quinjet. That honestly surprises me. I'm probably going to skip this set, since I'm reasonably happy with the comics Captain Marvel, and I'm sure she's going to get many more figures over the coming years.

I thought you were trying to emulate the costume from the movie X-Men: Days of Future Past. For that costume, he has torso armor only, and is wearing military-esque fatigues as pants. From the various screenshots, they looked sometimes blue, sometimes black, sometimes a more military brownish/tan, depending on the lighting or filter. But if it's just a more general post-apocalyptic Wolverine, then of course you do whatever you think looks cool. The yellow accents from the Yellowjacket pants do help evoke the traditional Wolverine colors.

That's pretty good! I'd switch the pants to something more neutral, though.

Just FYI, the scene with Hulk fighting tanks in a desert was in Ang Lee's Hulk (2003), not the MCU movie The Incredible Hulk (2008). That said, it's cute. Mighty Micros have even weirder proportions than normal minifigures, but at that scale it really works for Hulk.

Yeah, it does. I'd try changing the arms and legs to solid colors, though; a patterned jacket fits Li's style, but a silly suit doesn't.

Jones > Wayne >> Moleman Moleman doesn't really work, but there are other torsos that preserve the white/black dichotomy somewhat better, if you're willing to relax your criteria a bit; https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=973pb0532c01#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"iconly":0} https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=973pb0940c01#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"iconly":0} https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=973pb2074c01#T=S&C=1&O={"color":1,"iconly":0}

I'm fairly confident this one's fake, to be honest. It's an outdoor picture, which would be fine for a leaked figure, but it's also got a Lego "confidential" watermark plastered over it, which tries to suggest it's official. And if that's the case, the weird environment doesn't make sense. The watermark is labeled "2017"; I bet the faker took the watermark from a real leak last year. I don't know how you could possibly identify it as Emma Fuhrmann from that. She's not a famous actress and she doesn't have any notable facial characteristics, and this is just a generic female minifigure. Only if you were trying to start rumors would you "know" who it was. The print looks pretty bad. It also goes all the way to the edges of the torso, which real prints don't really do.

You ever experiment with some flavor of transparent head in that helmet?

If you're trying to make it less square, I would move up the fins to the middle of the body, rather than hanging off the bottom. That's where they are on the movie's model. Then you can use slopes and curves to make the underside look more serpentine, and the upper side more lumpy and less angular. The tail should just be built up with a few extra parts. And yeah, I think the color scheme could be calmed down a bit from that second model. I think the creature's flesh is best represented by light gray, and then the dark gray armor will be its own contrast.

Strangely, the head is actually quite cheap (x<$1.00 USD) and available in large quantities on Bricklink. I'm guessing it's the horns+headdress piece that's driving up the price– Zabraks are a common species in Star Wars, but they have few minifigures to represent them.

I feel you could really improve the silhouette with a few simple changes: Remove at least the second fin. The Leviathan only has a few fins along its length, and the gaps between fins near the front are pretty big. The first fin is also bigger than the other ones, so use a slightly smaller plate for the ones at the back. Make the animal get narrower over its length. Even just making the rear two or three segments a couple studs narrower would help (e.g. 8x4 instead of 10x4). Add the spine. The Leviathan has notable protruding vertebrae that start around the 1/3 point of its back, grow taller going further back, then get smaller again. Those are the easiest changes that I think would help the most. I think using various slopes and curves to match the shaping of the armor would help, too, but that would be a lot more work and experimentation.

In my experience, not only can you not buy them, but they wouldn't even replace my broken ones via the phone line (Zombie Pirate's hook hand).

Those are really impressive! Your photography is top-notch as well! Congratulations! Heads up on Sue Storm's hair– if you're just trying to match style, the same piece appears in a more fitting banana-Yellow color.

Because characters with unusual non-human faces often get those details printed on, even when they violate the Lego aesthetic. Cornelius Evazan from Star Wars would probably also get a nose. Also of note, not all Voldemorts do have nostrils. The Lego Dimensions version does not, and luckily he looks fine, so you can buy one of him if you want a nose-less one:

It's so hilarious to me that every time, I end up using all of BrickLink's advanced search features, then copying the IDs back over to B&P. Their search is so inconvenient that I'm using a competitor's shopping service just to learn the parts. Like, thanks, Lego, for having two concurrently running ID numbers for the same part, and only having half the colors being available under each one, and not bothering to link the two pages. Without BrickLink, how could I possibly even realize that?
