It's still coming out June 1st, it probably just didn't get put on shelves yet because of it's huge box. Yeah definitely. Though that doesn't really matter to me as I for one absolutely adore these sets and will pick up every single one of them (bar the Gauntlet) asap

As Robin Williams once said: "Let him have his dreams! Don't you screw up his dreams! His feet are big too let him dream!"

The head takes some getting used to but other than that really the only problem I have with Thanos is that they cheaped out on the armprinting, which is inexcusable considering they could've just reused the 2019 arms.

It's definitely a standard stud as we know them.

I think the main reason Thanos looks really odd is because his head looks like an upscaled minifigure head but the stud is just as large as we're used to.

That's true but these sets still have a limited budget, that's why I specifically mentioned another repeated Chitauri.

Time to write down my final thoughts on these sets: Cap vs Hydra Surprisingly good for 4+ standards. Love the new Cap figure and the Hydra soldier looks decent. Day one. Dragon Flyer Adore this set. They absolutely nailed the look of the vehicle and I'm surprised they managed to make it this big at $20. The figures look great, though the fact Shuri has no skirt is inexcusable. Day one. Iron Monger While a lot of people seem really upset about it's size I'm really happy the designer(s) chose looks over size-accuracy. I don't want to offend anyone here but I've seen quite a few downscaled Hulkbusters over the last few years and I really don't like how they look. The figures look great, especially glad Obadiah got a new faceprint! Day one. Infinity Gauntlet Looks good but it's not for me. Final Battle While I do really like this set there are quite a few things I don't like all that much: - The Compound's interior is really barebones and that ''jail'' is such a waste of space. - I really like the new Black Panther figure but I have no use for 2 of them. Another Chitauri would've been a way better inclusion. - The lack of printing on Thanos' arms is inexcusable and honestly kinda pisses me off. Overall it really looks like they were planning to make IW Thanos and made a last-minute change to Endgame. - The Wanda figure is bloody awful, I hate how they butchered her. The torso is great but the hair, face, legs, powerblast pieces and lack of a skirtpiece make her look horrible. That said I'll still get this set day 1.

I wonder if the Dragon Flyers body can be moved down:

It's only ever been in the $330 Disney Train set so yeah it's definitely rare.

Considering it's just a generic business suit this definitely works well enough. The important thing with Obadiah is that he got this much needed new faceprint.

Obadiah's torso isn't new: Considering she's sitting down in the cockpit I highly doubt she has a skirt.

That's the thing though, the main complaints with the old Compound was that a lot of pieces were wasted on a useless car and helicopter and a really inaccurate garage/hangar. Look at Brickset's article, the comment where I posted the link seems to have gone unnoticed but they're really high quality pictures.

It's been mentioned a few times already, just got covered under the incoming stream of comments

The new bigfig body for Thanos has studs on his back. New bigfig Bane in 2022, calling it now

Lower right section of the Compound.

They've never printed on that piece so that was to be expected. A great inclusion nonetheless!

They do look good but I'm not sure how happy I am that they're new. Reuses of the 2019 figure would've been decent enough and maybe that budget could've then gone to skirts for Wanda and Shuri instead.

Nah man it's definitely the same figure in both sets.

That's 100% the same Black Panther as in the Dragon Flyer set.

Rather disappointed that we still haven't seen the set I'm most excited for: the Benatar.

Pretty sure that's the same piece used for Molten Man.

I gotta say I'm not sold on the new Thanos just yet. It may be due to the angle but he looks rather.... odd.

Obadiah has a new faceprint!!!
