Hulk's Tacos? Tbh, if true, I'm not broken up about it not being Avengers Tower. I'd love it some day, but for now, my wallet will be happy it's getting a break post-Sanctum.

Yeah, I'm not counting that one. While he could be used for a moody light side variant he clearly leans more Darth Vader in his expressions, if you get me? But wow, 2014. We're definitely overdue a new one!

I wasn't that interested in the tank but those new pictures are making me consider it. Especially because there's enough space between the central part and the edges that you could probably easily mod it to be more sloped. Really hope we get Obi-Wan and Anakin with the gauntlets. I feel like it's been a while since we've had a light side Ep. III/CW Anakin without a headset on, right?

Tbf, the Bugle is grey in the comics, which the set is based on. I would assume they'll change the roof of the Sanctum though. The Infinity War set has a black roof, rather than the greener one seen in that picture (/the films).

Same. I'll definitely be picking up the new Batmobile at some point. Maybe the Tumbler as well to go with it even though I have the old one. I don't come to this thread much and thus probably don't know as much as you all do, but I'd be shocked if we didn't get some variation of the Burton Batmobile to coincide with The Flash. Love this, also. It was awesome tbf.

I know, but if you want an easy way to get both Thors, Korg, Miek, Valkyrie and Gorr then it's an option, is all I mean. I agree that other characters would have been more interesting though. Plus, I'm still not in love with Korg being a minifigure.

How much is this pack supposed to be again? * If it's cheap enough, and you're just in it for the figs, you could easily either buy the Goat Boat OR the weird monster and accessory pack and get all the main characters, thus negating the need to buy the other main set. Weird, but I kind of appreciate the ease of it all. * Edit: Had a look at our greatest resource (Scarilian's list) and I see it's meant to be $15. So buy the Goat Boat for $50 or Monster/Accessory Pack for $35.

With the prices or the Mangog thing? There's enough there that I can kind of see the resemblance (plus the fact Mighty Thor's last big battle involves Mangog)... But it's also different enough that I'd be disappointed. After seeing Gorr though, a radical change in appearance wouldn't be out of the question. Regardless, only way I'd pick this up is if it's on sale for a price that makes it cheaper to just buy this than it would be to buy the figures.

Oh I don't like that. Don't like that at all. I also echo the hope that that isn't Mangog. The only positive, as someone mentioned, is that the Thors might be easier to pick up now for anyone who doesn't want the Goat Boat. I would like it, but other things take precedence at this stage so I'll be monitoring Bricklink/eBay prices for sure.

I don't know anything obviously, but when the Bugle was announced - wasn't it believed for the longest time that there was around 15 figures (I can't remember the exact number)? Then the final number was 25.

It's been a while since I looked at it but I was also under the impression they were leaking the idea of a Kaminoan minidoll rather than outright saying that THAT specific figure was the real deal. Something about their wording (and the wording of their previous post). As for the force ghost, I like the idea in theory, but not really in practice. Sure, you can use the piece on nearly any figure, but realistically there are only 2/3 force ghost figures you'd need at any given time (5 if you want to play/display in the post TRoS era), and this piece doesn't even work for the most prominent one. As such, I also think specific minifigures would work better. Transparent pieces would be cool, but unnecessary, since Yoda wasn't depicted as such the last time we saw him anyway. Plus, thinking about the second hand market, if you want to buy multiples of this piece, and it's only in one set (for the time being) I could see the price being quite high when seller realise it's in demand. Especially with the way second hand SW Lego has shot up recently. Would be more convenient to just do a set with the main three force ghosts in some time down the line.

So looking forward to the Sanctum. I'm fine with the smaller amount of figures as well; as I said previously, give me Strange and Wong and I'm happy as long as the build is good. I just hope Wong gets a new face, something that captures his likeness more than the current one.

Going off the description Gorr rides the space-shark.

Space sharks always seemed to be popping up in the Jason Aaron comics where Gorr and Jane Foster-Thor showed up. Sounds plausible that they would go all in on that for the movie (and thus, the Lego set).

I just noticed that! It looks so much better now. A lot more imposing. Edit: (There's a clearer image on the back of the box in the bottom corner for anyone interested)

That is a great set, I'm pretty picky with my Marvel purchases but that's definitely caught my attention. Love (most of) the figures. Love the boat. The goats look a bit derpy but what can you do. Gorr looks pretty bad though. I haven't seen the set photos of him (yet), but going off his look in the comics he's a bit of a disappointment. That's not really Lego's fault though.

I feel like Thor getting Qui-Gon's hair has been a long time coming. Glad it's finally happened. Great figure all in all. A lot going on in that costume.

I second all of this. The set could just come with Doctor Strange and Wong and I'd probably still be happy. But if they did go all out on figures that would be amazing! I'd forgotten about the Sanctum being in NWH as well Imagine if they did go the Death Star/Millennium Falcon route... There'd be so much to choose from! DS - Strange, Wong, Mordo, Ancient One, Kaecilius, Daniel Drumm Ragnarok - Thor, Loki IW - Iron Man, Bruce Banner NWH - Spider-Man, Ned, MJ, Goblin, Ock, Electro, Sandman, Lizard MoM - Wanda, America Chavez, Christine and Rintrah maybe? I don't expect this, obviously, but the possibilities are exciting.

I was just thinking how much sense the Sanctum made for that set number earlier after someone mentioned it. Too few pieces and too low a price to be the Avengers Tower, but then also too big and pricey to really be many other things. Personally, I'm stoked. Spider-Man and Doctor Strange are my two favourite superheroes, so I love that they're the two characters to get the first superhero modulars. I also love both the comic and movie designs, so whichever way it swings (movie, from what everyone's saying) is fine by me. I do have the previous Sanctum, but I guess I'll just close it up and only have Pete's apartment on display. My dream of a little Lego Marvel New York is becoming more realistic day by day!

£55 is actually a tad cheaper than I thought it would be (I was expecting £59.99) but even so... I was looking at a couple of MOCs earlier and the way various people have done the starfighters nose just makes the legitimate one look slightly off in comparison. Seeing as it doesn't release until June anyway I might just study rebrickable to try and find a more affordable, accurate alternative.

That would explain why these pictures are out so early. I quite like the set, but I'm sure if I looked more closely at the myriad of MOCs that came out a few weeks ago I might have second thoughts. As it stands, I plan on getting it, but definitely not full price. Far too high.

Well that was quicker than anticipated. Bit pricier than I'd like but I'll definitely be picking this up at some point. Also a fan of the clearer shots of the palace. Would like to see the exterior before I make any choices though.

I don't think the set looks grand enough to convincingly portray Jabba's palace, especially compared to the 2012 one as many have said. But I still kind of like it. I like the figures, the interior looks cool. And depending on the exterior, it could act as a nice little Mos Eisley expansion placed next to the Cantina if you just pretend it's a random Tatooine building.

That Dark Trooper set is pretty cool, and I was quite excited about it. But after some time to mull it over I think I may just skip it and grab the Luke figure down the line due to the price. Looking back at the sets they pump out at this price range where the minifigure is the main draw (ToT, AAT, etc) just end up going in my parts containers anyway. Presumably the Luke fig should end up being pretty cheap online if everyone's buying multiples and selling it! Very excited to see Boba's palace, but the rumours that it includes (unsurprisingly) the same Boba figure from Slave I with the off-colour helmet is a bit disappointing. Hopefully the rest of the set makes up for it!

I'm going to wait personally. It has to show up at some point. In fact, I'd say it's pretty much inevitable. It's just a matter of when.
