Marvel Superheroes 2018 - Set Discussion
benderisgreat replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
If these Avengers 4 art is real , we could be getting some interesting minifigures next year... I still don’t understand why Russo’s refuse to have Thanos in his classic comicbook armor aka his GoTG look.- 3,962 replies

Future DC Super Heroes Rumors & Speculation
benderisgreat replied to Sir Gareth's topic in LEGO Licensed
With trailer for Dc Supervillians it’s time to guess which characters from game make it into sets in 2019! New Joker with vest is most likely candidate, since Lex and Harley both appeared in sets before. New Grodd with armor, seems possible, but I’d give it 50% chance of happening. -
So just got Destinys wing and Throne room sets. The plane is meh at best, seems like been there done that kind of build. Both minifigures are cool though, and new dragon sword molds are fantastic, plus you get a spare blade. Throne room set is pretty much remake of Kryptarium prison from 2016, but less interesting build. Harumi’s trone build is nice, but Lloyd’s cell is poorly made. Also I like how LEGO switched classic hero trope, and this time Lloyd is damsel in distress, while Nya, Skylor and Pixal are saving him. All minifigures in this set are great, but Harumi and Lloyd are standouts. Will probably get Dragon pit and Dieselnaut in a month or 2 to complete this wave of ninja minifigures. But I need to get Kessel Run Millennium Falcon first thought.

Chewbacca is probably the same, since googles he wears in that scene would require new mold for his torso. Qi’ra could be wearing Vandor-1 fur coat like Han in Conveyex. -
Duel on Mustafar is another set long overdue a remake. It can be done at different price points, but I think 50-60$ one would be perfect. Minifigures: Anakin, Obi-Wan, Padme ( still can’t believe we never got her Ep 3 version), Nute Ganrey, 2 battledroids.

So after watching Solo here’s my idea for missing sets:

Since SvL confirmed V-19 and Resistance Shuttle, it’s most likely both of them will be a January 2019 wave sets. Resistance shuttle could easily be 30-40$. -

Imperial heavy hauler looks like a mix between AT-DP head and Kylos shuttle, not super impressed by this look. But if it’s wings can actually attach to rumored Conveex set then I guess it might be a lot better then first image suggests. -

Well, it seems that this summer wave might just be the best SW wave in quite a while! And we haven’t even seen 3 Solo sets yet. Very excited to see what Lego has in store for us next wave! -

This pack looks incredible, but also raises questions like why are minifigures in actual sets are so lackluster, or how are we going to be able to get them, considering Toys r us went out of business?- 3,962 replies

Why would Lego update Cull Obsidian/ Black Dwarf and not Thanos? If anything updated Thanos is a must. Although if he wears classic armor in next film LEGO could cheap out again.- 3,962 replies

Ghost looks pretty good, but some leg print would be nice. Wasp looks great, but reusing Ironman helmet isn’t the best choice in my opinion. Also no leg prints seem to be new norm for Marvel sets. A big step down from 2016 when we got a lot of higher quality minifigures like 2 Goblins.- 3,962 replies

Why does everyone thinks that this Golden Dragon master is Wu? He looks nothing like this minifigure in flashbacks! It’s probably just a new character, which is good.

Got 3 IW sets today: Outrider attack, Thor’s weapon, Hulkbuster and so far so good. Minifigures are pretty good, but lack of leg prints is very annoying. New Hulkbuster is impressive to say the least liked the build a lot , and I didn’t expect much from it. Milano pod is ok, but lacks some interior details like console prints or stickers. Dropship looks good for a scaled down version ships from the trailers.- 3,962 replies

LEGO Nexo Knights 2018
benderisgreat replied to Peppermint_M's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Ok, amidst discussion of reasons why Nexo is cancelled, I’m going to give my thoughts on 2 sets of final wave that I bought : Tech Wizard and Twinfector. The concept of mech inside a bigger mech is so weird, but this set pulls it off, somehow. Like the version of Clay in this set, but I don’t get why Monstrox is a hologram like Merlock instead of actual minifigure. Overall good but kinda weird set. Teinfector isn’t that good for 20$ set. But minifigures are really cool: new armor and helmets are awesome, and Aaron looks great. But value just isn’t there for this set.- 1,601 replies

Just saw review of new Milano, and it has some interior space in the middle! Looks like really good version of Milano and it will look awesome with pod from Thor set.- 3,962 replies

Don’t know if it’s been mentioned before, but Jay has a new type of dagger that fits in deepstone armor. Looks great.

After seeing new pics of MF, I really like the set! Didn’t expect removable front pod, and such unique interior. I guess since it’s Lando’s Falcon at the time it explains why interior looks like a fancy bar. And overall it’s just a great version of iconic ship. Just wish it was 150$ Like TFA one instead of 170$. -

Well, bike feature in new Milano set is djust as issapointing as I expected. But at least it looks like cockpit could be easily redesigned to look normal. Hopefully there's at least some way to make more room in the middle of the ship, but I don't have much hope of that. Really like the way pod from 20$ set connects to the big ship. As for Sanctum, exterior looks great, but no interior is very dissapointing. Needs a lot of modifications!- 3,962 replies
