Since we pretty much know all the 2024 sets we're getting for Batman.. oh I'm sorry.. DC this year, I think next year (2025) we will still only be getting 5-6 sets at most like we did this year and last year. I'm like 99% sure Superman: Legacy will get sets, I'm expecting 2 sets (One $40 set and one $80) BUT I also had this come to mind: What if as an unofficial tie in to Superman Legacy, we got a Comic Modular Daily Planet next year? I know DC doesn't do comic sets as much but I feel like the figures in such a set could be easy to make (like no leg printing on most of the figures) to where it's not expensive to make completely exclusive figures. Also it's a safe bet to do it based on comics/general Superman lore as in we don't know if Superman Legacy is going to be a critical and financial hit yet (I really hope it is, fingers crossed it does well). But also Superman lore I feel like is iconic enough to comic book fans and AFOLs to warrant a modular Daily Planet. I had in my mind that it would be around $250 and have like 9 figures (Superman, Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Perry White, Jimmy Olson, Lex Luthor, Brainiac, Supergirl, Lana Lang). Again Idk how likely it would be but I would Love a set like this for next year. The other 2 to 3 sets next year I bet are going to be 4+ Batman sets and a Buildable Batman figure or Object, as expected now

Funny enough I actually watched the Marvels last night on D+ and it was ok in my opinion. I’ve seen a lot worse comic book movies but it wasn’t a movie I feel like I missed out on in theaters. I feel like if it came out in 2022 it would’ve made a lot more money/been better received if they made some tweaks IMO. The only scene where I think I actually rolled my eyes was the musical planet scene but that’s just me. BUT I can see why you would think it’s a top 10 MCU movie even if I didn’t love it. I’d rather watch the Marvels over Quantumania or Love and Thunder any day tbh.

Relating to my reply to @LegendaryArticuno I've had this idea for a while, and IDK how likely this set would be but: I would LOVE A set based on the Guardians 3 Hallway Scene similar to the NWH Final Battle/Endgame Final Battle/the AOU set we're getting this year. I feel like it would be easy to make as there could be a lot of repeat figures from last year's GOTG 3 wave and we would Finally get a Vol.3 Gamora. I don't know exactly how well the GOTG 3 sets sold last year as a whole BUT I always thought they sold OK, not exactly flying off the shelves but not warming up shelves like the Eternals/Wakanda Forever sets. At least Part of that is anecdotal. Last year at my local Target, The smallest set with Star Lord and Groot was always sold out or had one copy left on shelves. The Baby Rocket ship isn't retired yet and from what I remember last year after the movie, at my Target it sold decently. The Benatar IDK how that really sold as I always saw one copy every time I went to my Target, but it was a relatively expensive set but definitely a better deal than SOME MCU sets (Looking at you Black Panther Box Ship and Marvels set). Anyways, I feel like IF LEGO runs out of making Infinity Saga sets (which I still think there's a lot of scenes they haven't made/done justice into sets yet), They could make A Vol.3 Final Battle Diorama as Vol.3 is arguably the best received MCU Movie Post Endgame from Fans Besides No Way Home. Not to mention it was Disney's only financial win last year at theaters

Agreed. I haven't watched the Marvels yet and it's the first MCU movie I did NOT Go see in theaters but it sound's like I'm not missing out. But only 2 out of 9 of the Multiverse Saga movies I've seen in theaters really impressed me. I LOVED GOTG 3 and even then I consider that a Gunn W than a MCU W and I quite liked the sets we got last year. Like many people, I only consider Vol.3 and NWH the only 2 great Multiverse Saga movies so far and their sets are the Only LEGO Multiverse Saga sets I have in my collection so far tbh. I really REALLY Hope Deadpool & Wolverine is great as those 2 movies so I'm keeping my fingers crossed but I know no chance in hell we are getting sets based on that movie due to reasons already stated on this sub. I have mixed feelings towards the casting but I'm cautiously optimistic about the MCU F4 movie. I think Vanessa and Ebon are good picks but Pedro and Joseph, even though I love them in the other stuff I've seen them in (Pedro was the only good thing in the joke of a movie WW84), I can't really see them in the roles of Reed and Johnny but I'd love to be proven they're perfect for the roles when the movie comes out. I will say I'm more excited to see the sets than the actual movie

I could 100% see Daredevil. IDK about Kingpin since I personally think Kingpin would be done justice better as a big figure. And Punisher idk cause I feel like there could be complaints from Parents for some reason given Punisher is considered a more mature character than Daredevil (even if Daredevil is already for a mature audience but can still be marketed to kids in a way as stated earlier in this thread). Speaking of which, IF I had to bet on what the figures from the third Marvel CMF are (Most Likely coming Late Next Year), I would say: 1. Daredevil (Born Again) 2. A Spider-Man suit (from Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man) 3. Ironheart (suit from the D+ Show) 4. Billy Kaplan/Wiccan (from Agatha) 5. Rio Vidal (Aubrey Plaza's character/main villain from Agatha) 6. Kahhori (from What If?) 7. Wonder Man 8. Bishop or Gambit (from X-Men '97) 9. A character from Eyes of Wakanda 10. A zombie-fied character from Marvel Zombies 11-12. 2 Characters from What If? Season 3 Not all of these are choices I would PERSONALLY want, but I think this list would be a realistic prediction based on the last 2 CMFs we got.

I think a best case likely scenario (but also what I hope for) is that 76283 ends up being a Deadpool Helmet just branded under Deadpool or X-Men, kind of like how Carnage and Venom were branded under Venom or Carnage on the box. The set would not be directly based on Deadpool & Wolverine but also it scratches that itch for fans that want a LEGO Deadpool set this year by being an 18+ set like the other helmets were but it's a Deadpool set without Karens freaking out. @BrickBob Studpants I know this is a inside joke on the forum but seriously speaking, IF there was a world where there wasn't anything to worry about Karens and LEGO WAS able to make direct sets on Deadpool & Wolverine (or Anything R Rated in general), would you actually be against or for it? I'd personally love a set and figures but I know a killer astroid hitting Earth tomorrow is more likely than us getting a set and figures for an R rated movie for obvious reasons

It was odd to me that LEGO only gave us 2 mechs this January when we usually would get 3. Something tells me that if we are getting a third one this year, it would be Deadpool and LEGO made an exception for releasing a mech in the middle of the year and wanted to release it near the release of Deadpool 3 as an unofficial tie in just branded under Deadpool instead of releasing it in January. That’s at least my theory. I could be totally wrong though. I totally agree with you about the 4+ Sentinel. I just figured it would be a set that would give LEGO an excuse to make a 4+ set this year for Marvel, and how it would be in the same price range as the 4+ Hulkbuster last year, even though I’m in the same boat as a sentinel would be a perfect $35 set, but it doesn’t seem we have a set going for that price this summer, at least not yet.

I know MTD Bricks revealed prices and set Numbers for some summer sets. Here’s my predictions for each of those sets: 76286: New Milano $170 76288: 4+ Sentinel $25 76290: Arc Reactor build $60 76291: Age Of Ultron Set (similar to the NWH Final Battle and Endgame Battle Sets last year) $110 (These 2 (76287 and 76297) I don’t know would be possible but maybe if they brand it just under “Deadpool” instead of Deadpool 3 to avoid the R rated complaints, but I would love to see these): 76287: Deadpool Mech $15 76297: Deadpool Mask $60 I’d also think maybe a Store Exclusive set based on Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man could come out this year which would be a set number not revealed yet.

I feel like based on what we know with leaks and rumors, here are my predictions for the 2024 line up Besides the Gotham Skyline which is already confirmed (I assume these will be the only Batman sets we get this year). Shoutout to Mandalorianknight for inspiring me to do the list since they did their predictions, which are similar to mine. And I’m also being realistic too haha. As much as I’d love more niche villains we’ve never gotten in Lego before, I just can’t see that happening this year. My Realistic Predictions for the 2024 LEGO Batman Wave: 76270: Batman Cycle (Based On Batman TAS) Minifigures are Repeats of Joker and Batman from the Skyline set 76272: 4+ Batwing (not really based on anything particular just like how the 4+ Batmobile was last year, just plain Batman designs). Minifigures are Batman and Two Face 76273: Buildable Batman Symbol with No Minifigures. I can honestly see LEGO doing something like this since they experiment a lot and they are more likely to give us this than a LEGO playscale Batcave or Arkham TBH. 76274: Batmobile (Based on Batman TAS) Minifigures are Batman (Repeat from the skyline set), Mr Freeze, and Robin.

There’s a claim being made by lego_minleaks on Insta that the No Way Home set is being delayed or canceled. Apparently he claims he works in retail and that the set isn’t listed in August 1st releases. Anyone think he’s legit or making up BS? I get “my uncle works at Nintendo” vibes from him but after LEGO has cancelled other sets this year, it still made me a bit worried. I really hope it’s BS. It would be stupid of LEGO to cancel arguably the most anticipated Marvel set of the year, heck, I’d say the NWH set is the most anticipated LEGO Marvel set in a long time. I get why LEGO would can the Temple of Doom, Jabba’s Palace and Flash set, but Canning the NWH set makes zero sense. I’m thinking it’s a fake leaker who’s impatient waiting to see the set images so they decided to make a rumor up to stir something.

@SuperSquidman I agree with @squiz18 Gunn has always been known for at times his messed up humor (heck, that’s what got him fired for a while). But I thought nothing of the Disfigured Pig scene (or Lambshank). I understand why that scene could make you feel uncomfortable though even though It didn’t personally bother me. Exactly. Especially a film considered by the General public (it has the highest letterboxd rating of any MCU film and the second best second weekend drop of a mcu movie at the box office) to be great. @Flawless Cowboy I feel you need to explain why you didn’t like Vol.3 in order to not come across as dismissive or snobby. Like I said, opinions are opinions but at least explain why you have the opinion you do.

As someone who LOVED it, I totally understand your points. The humor isn’t for everyone. Maybe it’s because I love Gunn’s past work and most of the post Endgame content has been so underwhelming to me that Vol.3 blew almost all those out of the water (No Way Home was better) It just surprised me that in this forum some people didn’t love it as much as the majority of online as in saying it’s one of the only great post Endgame projects. I just hope everyone here can admit it was Miles better than Black Widow, Eternals, Love and Thunder, and Quantumania.

Dang, what did you not like about it? Pretty much everyone agrees it’s up there with No Way Home as the best post Endgame movie but opinions are opinions. The only people I think that wouldn’t think it’s great are Snyder fans that Hate Gunn.

I assume you haven’t seen Vol.3? Granted it being a great film is more of a Gunn accomplishment but it’s still “a marvel product”

That's honestly news to me. I checked the top 100 in Building Toys list on Amazon a while back and iirc, 3 of the endgame sets and 1 Far from home set are in the top 50. I really think The Hulk Helicopter Set could be a seller due to Rescue but who knows.

So I work at a Target and from what I see, most of the Marvel based sets seem to sell well (espically the Winter 2019 Spider Man theme and War Machine Buster). Is it possible that we get a CMF sometime in the near future?
