Buckethead

Is there a subscription with the magazine, and is so, how do I register?

I will pray to whatever Lego gods exist to get Mr. Terrific as a Minifigure.

Set possibilities based off some new rumors floating around.

I'm looking forward to the film and set. I thought the speech was alright; it just drags on a little longer than normal. And the first round of reshoots only just started a couple weeks ago. It hasn't been "extensively" reshot. I'm hopeful that with D23 in a couple months, we'll see a first look at the film, and I hope the set gets revealed sometime soon. When do sets in December usually get revealed? Early or late Fall? Sooner? I feel like people aren't giving the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man series enough credit. This show is giving us multiple Spider-Man suits, Daredevil, classic Dr. Strange, classic Doc Ock, Scorpion, Chameleon, and more. I'm looking forward to Brick Clicker's next video because I'm hoping to hear of any news (if any) regarding sets for this show.

Maybe not names, but hopefully branding. Unless I'm misremembering, I think it was this time last year that we first learned of sets based on No Way Home, Cap 4, etc. My hope is that we find if and how many sets there'll be for Thunderbolts, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, etc.

There was no indication of this in the video. The set numbers aren't even the same. It's unfortunate seeing other companies like Hasbro and Funko having figures for Deadpool but not Lego. We know Lego is open to adult audiences, but its always a D2C set. I don't get why Lego won't make a smaller retail set for the new film.

True. With D23 this August, and Avengers likely filming next year, we can expect an update soon. Kinda surprised we haven’t heard anything about Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man sets yet. It was previously reported to release this year, and it has set potential. Is there any chance there are more sets this year we haven’t heard of yet?

An X-Men film, yes. They recently heard writing pitches. No current release date. The only other confirmed films without dates are Armor Wars, Spider-Man 4, and Shang-Chi 2.

The same rumor that suggested Spider-Man 4 will come out next year also claimed both Avengers films are expected to release on time, so even if we don't get the symbiotic suit in Spider-Man 4, it would be a huge missed opportunity to not have Peter in the symbiotic suit for Avengers.

I like the lineup, and its a nice way to get some of the characters for those who didn't get the jet set. Like most people, I wish we had gotten some others (Jubilee, Nightcrawler, etc.), but we seem to be getting characters from the promo material like I had predicted. With a season 2 already in development and Nightcrawler now on the team, I'm hoping he gets made in either a future set/CMF. I also wonder if we'll get their new or traditional costumes (I'm leaning more toward the latter). And do we think any of these characters will get any new molds (like they did with Mordo in the Sanctorum)?

I love the new Surter set. Looks like he may be using Kro's head mold with some additions. A bit disappointed that they resorted back to Thor's old hairstyle (I think the LaT hair works best). Also, is that a new cape?

Looks like HD quality images of those Captain America McDonalds toys leaked a couple days ago, but I don’t see anyone talking about it, so it may be fake. I hope Falcon gets a new helmet mold. I like the orange visor and white stripe.

Wonder Man is a new show not due out until a year or two. If we get him, it'll more than likely be in a CMF (unless he shows up in another project).

I meant for Avengers 5. That way, any figures not included in the sets could be adapted in a CMF.

I watched Echo. ;( I agree though that with Deadpool being a mature project and character, we won't be getting sets. Th only way I see us getting Deadpool is with either a comic book adaptation in the mansion set, or we get him in Avengers.

That would be cool, but highly unlikely. I am curious though; with Avengers coming out in a couple years, could we see Lego shift from a Disney+ CMF to an Avengers CMF? Kinda like what Toys R Us did on Bricktober for Infinity War but on a larger scale.

The Baxter Building could be really cool. I don't think it would include many characters since we only know of 5-6 possible Minifigures so far. Hopefully, if true, they could compensate with a massive Galactus buildable along with the Baxter Building.

US Agent is in Thunderbolts, not Cap 4. It's not necessarily a bad idea to use John instead, but they can still do so with Ruth, and Shira Haas can bring something to the role that Wyatt Russell as John maybe couldn't.

I imagine the reaction would be the same if I told someone that after 10+ years of lego Marvel, we still don't have the Fantastic Four.

And Falcon!

I don't know how Lego will handle mature projects. I'm hesitant to say we'll get anything from Marvel Zombies, Blade, or Daredevil. We might also get What If...? Season 3 and Wonder Man.

Although I feel like Fantastic Four will only get one set, I hope I'm wrong. Silver Surfer!!!!!!

I would argue the same for Eternals. To be fair though, Lego's 2019-2020 mindset isn't the same as their 2023-2024 mindset, so maybe now they're more hesitant with riskier properties. And I don't see why Lego wouldn't make John Walker. By the logic given, Lego will never make Kingpin since his most iconic scene is bashing someone's head in with a car door. I agree with you for the most part. A group like Fantastic Four only needs the four characters, but Thunderbolts entails 6-7 members that I feel Lego would want to either split up into 2-3 sets, or they exclude some for like an $60-80 set of 5-6 characters like you mentioned. When I suggest they'll probably do multiple sets, I mean some combination of the two options: one big set with 3-6 characters, and maybe an additional set with two repeats and one exclusive character.

Thunderbolts might not be as popular, but that doesn't make them less relevant, and I don't see why Marvel or Lego would market it any less than the other films mentioned. Any non-R-rated Marvel movie, especially an ensemble film, seems like a reasonable thing for Lego to want to capitalize on. But I do agree that they'll probably get no more than two sets. I just don't think they'll try to cram them all in one. Also, Lego isn't just looking at the popularity of the brand or characters (though they are important). They're also going to want to consider characters who are relatively inexpensive to make (John Walker doesn't seem to difficult to make), and there needs to be some playability factor to them (Ghost may not have much, but Taskmaster has a sword, a shield, a bow, and who knows what other neat tools/weapons). Lego's main audience are kids, and I believe Thunderbolts has enough potential for kids to want more than one set.

I don't think Lego is intent to include all of them. But, like Arishem, Galactus could be buildable (as could HERBIE). I also haven't put much stock into Silver Surfer appearing in the film, and if he does, there's no guarantee he'll play a huge role. Besides, my predictions are primarily based on less risky scenarios. I'm only excluding characters if they have a decent chance at being excluded. Since the film is called the Fantastic Four, Lego would naturally want to make the main four, but other than that, all others are game. If Lego didn't care to include Kang or Dar-Benn last year, I don't see why Lego would care to make the villain here.
