New Stormbreaker build definitely uses telescope piece instead of Monkey kid hilt in reddish brown. Another missed opportunity for Lego. I still prefer that custom build for Stormbreaker using 3l bar. I seriously don't understand why Lego can't use that fan design for Stormbreaker as it's superior to Legos designs.

This new Thor set is amazing! The boat build looks great, but goats themselves are kinda weak build. New Valkyrie and Korg figures look really cool as well. Although I still don’t get why they call her King Valkyrie instead of Queen. Gorr though looks pretty bad. Torso looks like a mummy prints. And face is just bad. But that might be movie designs fault. Overall it’s a great set, with some small flaws. Hope second Thor set is just as cool.

Nothing about this pack is certain as of now. If we’re wishlisting though, I’d like for the pack to include Endgame Ronin, Black Widow and Red Skull as storekeeper from that Vormir scene.

Kinda sucks Lego choose to save some money here by reusing head print that’s inaccurate for this version of Thor. Oh well, I guess I will have to reuse 2020 Avengers game face on new figure.

New Thor looks great, finally Lego gave him Qui-Gon hair! Torso and legs look cool, maybe a bit too bright( movie designs fault not legos). I kinda wish he had arm prints like Ragnarok one, but he stool looks great. Btw is this new face or reused fat Thor’s one?

So do we have confirmation that Sanctum is based on Multiverse of Madness or comics?

Do we have any real confirmation about Sanctum UCS from reliable leakers like Falcon? Because random source on Instagram doesn't sound reliable to me.

New Jane Foster minifigure looks cool, except for reused head. Helmet mold looks great, as do torso and leg prints. The reused head here is unacceptable though. Natalie Portman has such unique faviel features that she definitely needed new face print like 2013 Padme minifigure. Might have to bricklink that head since it's so much better. PS. When do you guys think we can expect Thor himself to leak? Usually when 1 minifigure from line leaks, others aren't far behind.

New Mandos N-1 pics are out, set looks pretty cool. BD droid is good mold, but lack of new Darksaber piece and ridiculous 70$ price are huge negatives here. This should be 50$ at most if set had new mold for Darksaber.

Sure, but 2012 palace had special mold for Jabba, so this price was more justifieble. N1 from 2015 had better value, 3 minifigs, 3 battle droids, 2 buildable Droidekas. And some side build for hangar. So both sets were better value in their past versions.

Both Boba Fett sets seem awfully priced. Palace should be 80-90$ at most and Mando’s N1 40$. Lego has been getting more greedy with SW sets prices this year, and these 2 sets are great example of this trend.

New Jane figure looks pretty good, even has leg prints! Hope Thor also gets highly detailed minifigure as his Ragnarok minifig is the best version of the character! Btw isn’t it weird that we see Jane suit from the movie in Lego form before we get any promotional photos or even a trailer? Reminds me of Giant-Man situation in 2016.

If Bd-1 rumor is true does it mean we will finally get Fallen order sets? Or sets based on its sequel? Mantis would be the best choice with Cal, Bd, Cere, Greeze and Second Sister for like 120$. I just hope with Bdset Lego designers realized how stupid their prior comments on game were.

Very interesting summer rumors. They sound too good to be true, especially with the amount of fake leaks recently. Bd-1 stands out for sure as Lego designers said Fallen order is “too violent” to be made in lego. I’ll wait for confirmation but i hope this list is real.

This new version of Jabba’s palace seems pretty good to me but not flawless. First of all the lack of iconic roof is I big miss. That whole mosque controversy from 2013 was ridiculous and everyone knows that. That’s how this palace looks in the movies, that’s why 2012 version had this roof! But Lego being reactive and lacking spine when it comes to reacting to stuff like this designs set without its iconic roof… The interior though looks pretty good, enough space for minifigs and nice details included. Although entrance tower is way to small it works. Minifigs look good, although it very sad to see Lego refuse to make Bobas helmet and jet pack in accurate dark green color instead of sand green here. Even that promo image they made recolored helmet and jet pack in accurate colors, yet the refuse to fix official minifig. But overall it’s a good set, but I think 100$ is way to expensive for it, 80$ feels like more fair price to me.

So this new Mjolnir set is kinda mixed for me. On one hand the hammer itself looks pretty cool, right shape and good amount of details. But on another hand we have Thor (2011) mini figure that uses fat Thor face which doesn’t works at all for younger Thor. Hair they used here also doesn’t work that well for younger Thor. And then there’s the biggest missed opportunity with fake Infinity Gauntlet. In movie it’s right handed one, and LEGO used left handed piece here! I’d understand this decision for left handed mold if we didn’t get right handed gauntlet piece in that Hulk set. But they have the mold to make a movie accurate piece and they decided to cut corners yet again… Like wtf LEGO? If you don’t want to make set great, don’t make it at all! It’s the attention to details that counts!

New Darktroopers set is freaking great! Love that hallway looks so nicely built, and surprisingly big for 160 pieces. New Luke is a welcome addition to my collection, didn’t expect him to be new minifig. And of course 3 Darktroopers are nice to get in a set. Overall I’m very happy with this set.

Totally agree with you on new Mando helmet mold, the one they use now is pretty bad and outdated tbh. If they take Gar Saxon helmet mold and just remove horns, it would make much better Mando helmet in my opinion. But Legos logic when it comes to new molds in SW doesn’t make any sense. They made 4 new molds for Knights of ren( which will probably never be used again), but still refuse to update Phase 2 Clone helmets to fit range finders and visors. Let’s be honest, they will get way more use out of new Phase 2 helmet than out of KoR helmets.

So for Marvel CMF 2 I think we are definitely getting minifigs from Hawkeye, Moon Knight, She-Hulk and Ms Marvel. So if we get 3 figs from each show, there's no more space for leftover figures from 2021 shows like Agatha, Zemo or Strange Supreme. With these many shows, we need to get back to 16 figures series now, 12 just isn't enough.

Speaking of Legos recent quality issues, just got a couple of Cmf bags and who would have thought, they had quality issues?! Loki’s face was printed wy to low on the minifig head, to the point he had a Peyton Manning forehead. And Caps shield that came with Bucky had a huge scratch and part of it was badly chipped. And they aren’t the only examples on last year, combined with mechs and Gargantos issues doesn’t look good for LEGO.

Wow, it seems Dr Strange 2 set has a big problem and uses “illegal” technique. What’s up with LEGO quality control these days? First mechs are canceled/ delayed, now this problem with Dr Strange set. Is it even possible for them to recall this set now? It’s already showing up in some sores across the world. It just feels like LEGO doesn’t bother to physically build the set before greenlighting production. What’s happening to their quality standards?

It’s not just LEGO all other merchandise manufacturers didn’t make old villains toys. So it seems like Marvel didn’t want to reveal big details from the movie. Hope we get at least Green Goblin and Doc Ock minifigs and Statue of Liberty final battle set. If the catalogue is right and they release in May, we should start seeing factory leaks soon enough.

You may understand why certain things are done certain way, but that doesn't mean you have to like them.

Well, not surprisingly Spider man 4+ sets are terrible! Sure afols aren't target audience for these, but to me they are terrible. Rhino and Hulk are the only good Minifigures here. The rest of them have Mighty micros feel to me, ok Chibi like. Guess I'll will only pick up Rhino set for his great minifigure.

Any ideas what the “stability issue” with mech could be? This new batch looks to be using same build technique as 2020/2021 mechs and their stability is good. Really confused by this news.
