Now that you say it. It does look like Black Panther.

Haha! So the red eyes are really... wow if this is true (which it’s clearly not) LEGO is going all out with the gore.

I said that wrong. I meant to control as in incapacitating him and causing him to rise to the sky. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Again, I’m just thinking maybe that’s how LEGO represents Thanos being attacked by Scarlet Witch? Well, maybe I thought too much haha.

Although I do believe this is the comic Thanos, here’s a wishful thinking: what if this “mech” set is based on the Thanos vs Scarlet Witch scene from Endgame? Maybe Thanos’ eyes are red because he’s being controlled by Wanda? Maybe we can get a new Scarlet Witch figure? Just a super wishful thinking here.

Yeah, it’s super annoying to see a minifig image under the hashtag only to find out that it’s fake, custom, or from years ago...

Yeah I would still keep my hopes for more endgame sets. I think only the mechs are comic-based. The new mighty micros like subtheme could be a huge possibility.

Yup. They lost most of their DC license to Spin Master

I think since Mattel is losing the DC license next year the regulations could be much more lenient there.

If this Thanos has a movie accurate helmet, I’ll happily forgive LEGO for the bad big figs.

It’s kind of weird because I don’t think we have ever gotten comic sets and movie sets in the same wave before. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.

Should be under the legoleaks hashtag now. Pretty sure this is the comic version of Thanos, as his eyes are red instead of blue and that his skin tone is more of a dark purple. But hey at least we kind of get a bald Thanos this time.

I think we will get Disney+ sets. We already saw leaks of the Mandalorian minifig, if anything this confirms that we will get sets based on these shows. Again, these shows are an integral part of phase 4. I don't think Lego would miss out on this opportunity.

I'm pretty sure it was just a Chitauri chariot. That's what it looks like, but again I could be wrong.

The real Mandarin!!!

Yeah. If I really wanted action figures I could just buy Marvel Legends instead.

There’s an existing minifig gauntlet/fist piece (it was used for Shocker in the Spiderman Homecoming set). They can just paint that red and print on the infinity stones.

Haha those would be awesome! I like buildable figures too! However buildable figures are not very lego-like. IMO they just lack the charm that good old Lego bricks and minifigs have. That's probably why many people disliked them (myself not included) and why Lego discontinued them.

That makes sense. I don't want Lego to just start making comic Avengers minifigs when they still have so many Endgame figs to make!

So are we still getting Endgame figures? Or are some of these sets just based purely on comics?

Is it confirmed that these are comic based?

I think we’re gonna get a minifig version of Thanos instead of a big fig this time around. It would suck if the set’s preliminary name has Thanos in it but the set itself doesn’t.

That’s Electro from the Ultimate universe

Yeah I think buildable figures really died down due to the failure of Bionicle 2.0

I thought they’re not making buildable figures anymore?

A minifig Thanos with a new helmet and great printing would also be super cool!
