I really hope not! I liked the episode well enough, but not that part of it so much. It would be especially grating when a better option is literally right there in the same episode. -

It would be awesome. I've said this before, but I don't know if you've seen ZeRadman/DreamBuildBricks' MOC, but the instructions for that let you turn it into either tower. It's pretty cool. As for a potential line up, I'd just like to see Quicksilver and an updated Vision - I've never been satisfied by the ones Lego has made so far (due to the head printing) and QS understandably goes for silly prices now, whenever I've checked. -

Oh yeah, in lore, sure, but I mean as a Lego set - just how tall a tower would they actually make? I may be wrong but I feel like most of the tallest Lego sets are all around the same height, no? I suppose the tower itself could reach the same height as the antenna on the Bugle, making the building larger but not making it too much bigger than the other already huge sets. -

If it is the tower, I'm curious to see how what exactly constitutes it being $200 more than the Bugle. Surely it can't be that much bigger right? The Bugle's already pretty imposing. I can see it having a lot of extra pieces to account for the weird shape - the MetLife building base, the curvature of the Tower itself, a penthouse that isn't at risk of toppling off, etc. But still. Very curious. The idea that it could double as both Stark and Avengers Tower would explain the price but I can't really see that happening, cool as it would be. -

That's a good point tbh, although personally I'd always rather err on the side of caution with these sorts of spoilers. Anyway, I certainly hope so. Especially if paired with one of your other suggestions. But getting two random no-name assassins seems equally, if not more, plausible to me. -

You're probably right, and I feel the same tbh, but the opportunity presented itself and I thought it could be a nice surprise if LEGO was feeling generous. It would be awesome inclusion. Lots of stuff in this episode that could make for interesting smaller sets as you say though! -

I definitely enjoyed this episode a fair bit more than the last. Interested to see if this episode has given us more of a hint as to what or who might show up in the Boba's palace set. Side note: can you do spoiler tags on mobile? I'm keeping it vague because I don't want to risk it. -

I really hope the Tobey rumours are true, but primarily because I'd like to see updated civilian figures. I hope whatever the set ends up being, we get a little Lego Willem Dafoe. He's been so great in both movies. It's also been a while since we got a Harry Osborn figure. I still have mine from the SM2 sets but he doesn't really scream 'Harry Osborn' -

My wishes are primarily the same as they were prior to seeing the film (which I loved btw - just got back from seeing it again). Namely new Electro and Green Goblin figures. The others would be cool too but as long as we get those two at some point I'll be happy. -
Marvel Superheroes 2021 - Rumors & Discussion

Avengers Tower has all the blue glass, while Stark Tower is covered in silver (?) panels. So on top of the top few floors and platform, they'd also have to build an attachment for the outside of the building. There's a MOC by ZeRadman that does that exact thing you suggest though. It would be interesting to see how an official model would tackle it, but ultimately I think the changes are significant enough that it might be more work than TLG is willing to put in. -

I certainly prefer the builds in these to the majority of battle packs tbh. They actually look like things from the films or games, and aren't oversized. But P1 Clones and Hoth troopers aren't something I'm looking to get, so that's me out. The wait for Rex continues! -

Someone posted a link to Gargantos' wiki on the previous page. I'm wondering if maybe the character will still be Shuma-Gorath, and maybe Gargantos could be what they're calling the race? Or he's a minion like someone else suggested. Either way, I like this set. I missed the OG Wong, and didn't want his NWH variant, and I have to have that more comic-accurate Strange. Not in love with the plastic Cape though, but I think I'm in the minority on that one. America Chavez is a cool bonus. -

Really curious to see how these Rex and Cody figs turn out. I'd have preferred P2 versions but I figure I'll just take the same approach as I plan to with Boba if they don't update his helmet colour... Just take the helmets off. Then boom, P2 Rex and Cody Won't be perfect, but if the torso prints are good then (for me at least) it'll be more than acceptable. -

1. Electro 2. Green Goblin 3. Doctor Octopus 4. Lizard 5. Sandman Electro is the most deserving of a good figure imo, and the Dafoe's Green Goblin is a figure I always wanted as a kid. Lizard, as a movie villain, I find kind of bland, but we've had Sandman so many times that Lizard manages to evade the bottom spot. If we do get these sets, I'm curious as to whether we'll get a classic Spider-Man 2 Doc Ock, or if they'll give him his new Iron Man tentacles? -

I was thinking this, and it's all I care about. Regardless of what the sets are, I hope we get a proper Electro and not just a Jamie Foxx with that harness on, sans electricity. Well.. maybe not all I care about. Updated Molina and Dafoe would be great too, but Foxx is my priority. -

Bit late to the party but yeah... Three mechs and a buildable figure? Not the most exciting start to the year. I have to say though, that Black Panther figure may be my personal favourite of all the ones they've put out. I don't love the other figures, but I am tempted to try and get their helmets/masks. I managed to get a decent deal on the older Wolverine fig not too long ago, so the mask would go well with that. And the Iron Man helmet could be a good upgrade for the SE Iron Man fig, I think! -

Bit off topic, and we may have discussed this already (although I don't think it's come up since it was announced), but has anyone else been playing the new Guardians game? Initially I was only interested in sets because I'd like to see some comic variants, but I'm really growing to love these takes on the characters. The supporting characters who appear (or are referenced) would also be cool to have in minifigure form. So far not too many things that jump out as obvious potential Lego sets so I kind of get why TLG didn't do anything with it, but there are some cool monsters that could make for interesting builds, if nothing else (beyond the Milano again). Though granted, I still have a third of the game left to go. -

I was lucky enough to see the film on Wednesday. I thought it was just fine personally but... I loved Makkari. I thought she was awesome. Great performance and best action sequences imo. I was also a big fan of the costume designs, so although I probably won't get the sets themselves I'm pretty tempted to track down the figs sometime down the line. -

Considering I've wanted the Falcon since it's release and have yet to be in a position where I can comfortably part with the money for it, I think it's safe to say I will probably never buy this set. I will however go and longingly stare at the finished set in its display case at the Lego store the next few times I visit Liverpool Very imposing, and I'm intrigued by the leg mechanism. Can't wait to see that in action in the reviews. -

I wasn't too interested in these, but the more I read about the Dagobah set the more hooked I became. Quite excited to see how that turns out. It's nice that we're getting more proper location sets that aren't just the bare bones huts (not that there's anything wrong with those of course - I love them too!) -

Looks pretty cool! I wonder how many of these they'll do. I feel like this is the sort of alternative SW set that will make a lot of people very happy. edit: the name is also interesting, with Luke also having the green saber. I guess they figured it would sell better this way as opposed to titling it Anakin's or (not trying to trigger anyone here...) Rey's -

Just got out of Shang-Chi and it's made me rather keen to get the great protector set. But as many have said, the other one... Not so much. I also found the CMF in Sainsbury's for any fellow UK collectors. Grabbed 3 at random, and managed to get Captain Falcon, Monica and Loki! I know the latter two aren't the most interesting figs to most, but alongside Spidey and maybe Wanda they were the only ones I wanted. Pretty fortunate. -

They might work well with the 2nd SE Cap though! The scale one that was in the mech and magazine. I really hope they do. I'd also be happy with some smaller modulars as well with the same level of interior quality and varied figure collection, with various references and stuff. Like a Nelson and Murdock/Alias office (in the style of the Detectives Office modular), stuff like that. There's also a cool Oscorp Tower moc online that would make a good real set. From your list though, Sanctum and the Baxter Building are the ones I'd like to see the most. And of those two I think the Sanctum is the more likely one to actually happen.
