Part of me was/maybe still is concerned the tail would just get printed on his back, especially as there's not a current piece (to my knowledge) that would acceptably work for his tail I'm sure that X formerly known as Twitter certainly aren't hyping this up to be a certain character and are going to blame the movie for "baiting" them into thinking it's who they think it is when it turns out to be nothing which completely ruins their headcanon, so therefore the entire film is bad... Right? Also why isn't Mephisto in the New Avengers Tower set?

Can't tell with the arms, but with Nightcrawler as a reference in the same picture his legs do look longer And speaking of Nightcrawler, it looks like he might have a tail piece. Very difficult to make it, it could be a second sword though. If he does and it's a new piece, hoping it means we get an X-Men 97 set with him. After today's episode too, really want to see a Polaris figure Also in all of the box designs Doom is displayed with green energy pieces but in the set he has red

Kinda unfair sales stats since his last set was a buildable figure. And since there's no Quantumania Ant Man figure to have him displayed next to his giant counterpart, it's understandable why that set wouldn't be as desirable Just something noteworthy though, Ant Man in the Doomsday trailer has his AMatW/Endgame suit rather than Quantumania or a new one. So he could've been an easy reuse, but at the same time, at least he was in the Endgame diorama, so he's basically been covered Just two more sets based on what we've seen in the trailer would cover a lot of bases; Wakanda Vs Talokan (featuring Black Panther, Namor, Invisible Woman, USAgent, Ghost, M'Baku and Falcon). Could feature the Fantastic Four's ship and Namor's throne Mini scale X-Mansion (featuring Captain America, Steve Rogers, Yelena (duplicate to allow Mystique as Yelena), Professor X, Beast, Shang-Chi, Gambit and HERBIE build Pretty sure that's just her weapons, but now I can't unsee it This might not be the sets fault, could just be the actual design since we've not properly seen it yet, but that Quinjet don't look great

My money's on Han Solo, but just to throw a very slim chanced potential head reuse... Carlisle Cullen from Twilight. His alternate head has golden eyes, it's what I'd use to upgrade Sentry if (when) he doesn't get a new face print https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3626pb3840&idColor=90#T=C&C=90

Don't really think of all characters they qualify as a spoiler, they're one of the ones most obviously in the film, but

I really don't think LEGO puts much stock in actor likeness, the men either get; Young Han Solo (Alden Ehrenreich, Paul Rudd, Chris Evans, Robert Pattinson, Michael J. Fox, Tobey Maguire, Guy Pearce, Orlando Bloom, Jeremy Renner, Richard Madden, Rupert Friend) Kaz (Tom Felton, Jon Favreau, Simu Lui, Barry Keoghan, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale) Henry Turner (Brenton Thwaites, Tom Holland, Paul Rudd, Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn, Nick Robinson, Sean Biggerstaff) Bruce Wayne (Tom Hiddleston, Jason Isaacs, Tony Leung Chui-wai, David Harbour, Jesse Eisenberg, Corey Stoll, Rafe Spall) Or for the ladies; Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones, Scarlett Johansson, Keira Knightly, Winona Ryder, Natalie Portman, Vanessa Kirby, Jennifer Aniston, Helen McCrory, Amber Heard) Carina (Kaya Scodelario, Emma Watson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Florence Pugh) Assuming this is a comic set (as MCU sets seem to avoid the smaller mechs) without accounting for the idea of the female Doom having a mask, another possibility of a character who wears similar colours and has ties to Doom is Morgan Le Fay. Might just be a stretch, but we don't have any details to go off Just another thought though, could Lasher actually be a green Symbiote Scorpion that was only identified as Lasher for his trait of being... green? As seen here

There's a bit more on the Skyline that says nanofigs of Iron Man and Silver Surfer should be included too ("unless the set changed"). If true, CRAZY that our first Silver Surfer is trophy sized The brick built Quantumania Giant Man had Cassie on the box. So its possible Yes. But not only that... "Yes, the mask is included" No need for a NWH bridge set now, we've won The wording is Strange Supreme, which implies What If?, BUT the inclusion of Zombie Namor and Thor should technically make this a Marvel Zombies set. I don't want to sound ungrateful, this wave has COOKED, but this set sounds like it could've included Infinity Ultron as well If this was Star Wars, we would definitely be getting a mini scale Jeff with this set. But thanks to HERBIE, I don't imagine that'll be the case, especially if not mentioned right now Massive W for Rivals, and hopefully this now means you're one big step closer to Luna Snow and Moon Knight (and me to Cloak & Dagger) Fisk Tower in the Skyline feels like a good sign. I do agree with your point about Demogoblin and Lasher, especially when we're waiting for even just a proper Shocker, but it's interesting that clearly someone who knows comics has designed these sets. They're both such obscure pulls, neither have had any actual media exposure (though while checking that I did see Lasher was apparently in Venom 3, but I don't think anyone's watched it. It also wasn't a significant role like Riot in the first one) Why do you suppose I just hurled a chair at your head Neiman?

I could see it being like the Iron Spider figure, and only the arm printing is exclusive to the bust On the other hand, if he is only available in the Bust, it'd be kinda crazy that none of the Doomsday sets (I can't remember how many we're said to currently be getting) include not only the titular character, but the ONLY villain in the movie
-
Official images are out now I'm definitely not complaining that we've got a Tom Hardy Venom figure, but the choice to make the bust movie based just makes it a bit too plain for me. A comic version with part of the spider emblem would've given it a bit more pizzazz. It's definitely not bad though, I do like that the tongue can be removed
-
Agent Venom would've been so much more likely to appear in a set during the Ultimate Spider Man era, which funny enough only featured two sets with Venom between 2012-2016, one being a 4+/Juniors set I wouldn't have expected Anti Venom, other than PlayStation's Spider-Man 2 it's not a character with much exposure, so while Agent Venom should be an easy choice to throw in a set, I reckon it'll be Venomized Doctor Strange next. But of course, not the cool looking Symbiote Supreme from Contest of Champions, just another half/half mix

Disney Main Street USA set... One minifigure... Blonde... Fan of Spider-Man... In a wheelchair... Did we just get a comic book Flash Thompson figure?
-
My stance on leg printing has always been that not every character needs it, especially when what's being adapted is basic or near plain. As example the new AoU Quicksilver has no leg printing, but his costume has such minor details that are almost unnoticeable, so it's easier to save that leg printing for someone else rather than do it out of necessity My point being, how out of the entire LEGO Marvel minifigure archive, how has BOOMERANG been deemed worthy of leg printing, while not a single Black Panther figure has ever gotten it? Mysterio had the privilege of being the main villain. We never saw a comic Hydro Man after FFH. Hell, we're still waiting for Shocker. I don't really care much for Tarantula's movie design, but at least Boomerang looks close enough to blend in with comic figures
-
Regardless of the day, a second X-Mansion modular 2 years after the last one?... My salt will not be leaving the shaker on this one
-
The minifigure from the upcoming Secrets of the Avengers book has been revealed as Black Panther (T'Chaka) No leg printing is a shame, thought these books usually do a good case of detailing, but still a good looking figure
-
A very blurry pic of the Helicarrier has leaked

Very negative take, that set had Jefferson Davis too, and between the figures had 7 exclusive prints, plus it wasn't just a portion of a modular building but it had a police car too. From this trailer we don't have much context to what either set could look like, but it could be possible Punisher and his van are in the Spidey vs Hulk set. Maybe it's just me, but the piece count in the prisoner transport (367) doesn't feel like you'd get two decently sized vehicles. I'd expect that set to be one armoured vehicle, almost to the scale of the Spider-Man 2 train set (393 pieces) I've just built the Oscorp set today, the size of the jewellery store/Miles' apartment is approximately 200 pieces, add another story to that and you've got about 300. Punisher's van can be done with around 200 pieces and voilà Not being included in the trailer doesn't tell us how much of a role he'll have, but hopefully I doubt Tarantula and Boomerang will show up, Sadie's character is surrounded with so much mystery that I imagine she could also get skipped to prevent spoilers (even if Reddit already knows who she is) but I could see the Hand making the cut. All you'd need is a new torso print that could be used on two figures, generically reused heads, no leg prints and a Ninjago mask

Say you take a photo but want to remove someone out of it. The magic eraser tool can do that, but unless you want an empty void where the missing person is, the background needs to be filled in, but that background isn't part of the original photo, so the AI replicates what they believe the background would look like based on the rest of the image. That explains why the Christmas lights don't match up That gold thing and possibly the yellow orb are likely a build in the corner that was partially cut out, that the AI tried to replicate. While messing around on that image with my magic eraser, I cut out everything on Captain Antarctica except his hat and all that replaces him is just AI mumbo jumbo. The last attempt made him look like a leaf blower or t-shirt cannon Your answer explained with one simple brick; https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=65826#T=C&C=36

If it is real (Spidey doesn't have dual printed legs, so I'm tempted to believe it), the Wolverine sweater is EXACTLY what I wanted to see There is an inconsistency between the pic of Doom on the front of the box to the other 2 images, which is hopefully just an error because that figure is beautiful! On the side of this being real, anyone know what the small white vehicle with the trans pink is meant to be? EDIT: Apparently the Doom inconsistency is due to the original poster using photo magic eraser to remove a label to protect where this was taken from so no one gets in trouble
-
I'd be okay with seeing that Cap reused, it's not worth £30 for a tiny 4+ set Other repeats I could see are Iron Man, Hulk, Black Panther, Thanos, Red Hulk or Spider Man 2099 My honest reaction if you're right Or another Spider-Man comic set Anyone else think it's weird that as far as SPECIFICALLY comic book based Spider Man sets go, Ghost Rider has appeared in more sets than Scorpion, Rhino, Kraven, Electro, Lizard and Shocker, the same amount as Vulture and one set less than Sandman and Mysterio. Not to mention a Venomized Wolverine just appeared and there's an upcoming film set with Hulk included Since the movie and the sets release, the chance of a comic book based F4 set has risen, but I'd find it more likely for a set with the New Fantastic Four first
-
The original source listed it as "Ghost Rider", "Christmas Wolverine" and "Dr Doom", so I take it's only Wolverine to be wearing an Xmas sweater (which I unironically would love if it was a yellow/blue sweater with an X on it) Ghost Rider will undoubtedly be reusing the recent figure, but maybe instead of a bike he'll get a firey sleigh to ride
-
Speaking as someone who never owned the original Helicarrier, this would be the sure shot way to steal my money So 2021 was Square Enix Avengers, 22 was GotG Holiday Special, 23 was whatever spare MCU figures they had and 24 was the same for Spider-Man leftovers IF true, this could mean it's our first comics based advent calendar (ignoring the Spider-Man one), and if it is and sells well, hopefully we could see more of them in the future. I'd like to think the lack of anything worthwhile in the 23/24 calenders is probably why there wasn't a 25 one, but potentially a new comic based Doom after 13 years should boost sales What set numbers are left following this news?
-
And it'd better be commonly used minifigures rather than something exclusive. Easy to picture an Iron Man with a smart brick, but it'd better be Mark 6 or 43 rather than say 42, which hasn't been updated yet
-
Great idea Can't believe photos of DCs March sets have already been revealed before we have more info about Marvels January sets
-
With low expectations about new characters, I wouldn't mind an updated Scorpion. He would make sense with his history with JJJ
-
And Magneto because he was right
