Huh, a new asgard set with 3 fan-favourites. It almost sounds too good to be true. Where's the part where we all wake up from this dream?

Now that you mention it, the first episode of what if? is about Cap Carter & Steve donning a Hulkbuster-like armor, and the D+ set is marked at $35... Again, it could be anything, and if Lego is still wanting to play it safe then my proper guess is FATWS, with sets from the other shows coming in 2021 after the noticed the success of Wandavision and the others.

Brickset's S21 reveal article is dated Dec 1st, so there is a possibility we might see something April 1st.

Considering how pretty much all D2C sets are now under the 18+ line, to me sounds like a no-brainer that DD and Punisher would be included in the Daily Bugle. Despite having a considerable fanbase, their MCU versions seem very "gritty" (not sure if it's the best word to say) to be included in the CMF.

I feel like a Hawkeye show set would focus more on Kate Bishop and Hawkeye in a "modern" setting, since it was said that the ronin suit would only show up in flashback scenes - there is concept art piece for it which shows Clint in a suit similar to the CW Tanker truck set one.

More accurate fur, retooled head, printed goggles, but the outfit colour isn't the best match. Hopefully this is a good indication of what the rest of the minifigs are gonna be like, if that's the case we're due for some good stuff.

I can see them using either the Large katanas or the Osprey propeller blades for the wings, and Gold I can kinda see it for accents/details, but yeah bronze is wrong.

Wait, the Dragonflyer is gold & bronze? They must've meant dark orange or something, because I don't see them making lots of parts in bronze, which IIRC last showed up in 2017 in Ninjago. But I'm happy to be proven wrong.

I had totally forgotten that bro and viking thor had 2 separate hairstyles! If that's the case then I think we won't see any belly piece, and Dumbledore's beard reused for Viking thor. Worst case scenarios: 1. we get both variants but they share the hair 2. viking thor is in both sets

I'd want separate hair/beard just to have some more options for minifigs, but hair combos have been done before so I'd say a small part of me expects them. Everyone points at that one dwarf from the Hobbit sets as a reference on how they could do the belly. My guess is that they could do a similar thing here, with the connection point actually being the neck (assuming they don't combine the hair) and the belly being "smooth" so they could print on it - the Battle set having the armor print and the Benatar set having the "big Lebowski" clothes.

I'm honestly just expecting Iron Monger to use the Mk1 helmet, but it might end up looking comically small if promobricks is correct in saying it looks like the hulkbusters. Other than a new thanos design with turning head, I think the Battle set will have an exclusive broken Cap shield, and the long haired thors in the sets will have a new beard mould. Not sure if I can see them having either gauntlets or that chima fist piece as a minifig nano gauntlet.

It'd be neat if the Sanctuary ship set came with mini versions of the Q-ships (printed 2x2 donut tiles?) and the Outrider dropships, and even had a dropping function like the SW Gozanti-class ship. If it comes with IM Mk85 and Cap Marvel with her 2020 helmet piece that'd be enough for me to buy it.

Ronin, Korg, IP, and Miek (she'd be a whole new mould on her own, kinda like the SW droids) seem like characters that would benefit from the budget of being in a CMF for extra details, and we have to remember these are Infinity Saga sets, not just Endgame so I'm not expecting the entire cast (Wasp is just her AMATW design). Let me be clear that I'm not trying to refute anything you or any of the leakers say, and I'm actually grateful that all is info is coming out, but design processes can be full of challenges and budgeting constraints and things may not always go as expected, and the time between leaks and releases is a long gap where anything could happen. It would just seem weird to me that new set numbers keep showing up just like the Sanctuary set. I will however agree on the fact that there are enough missing figs that could show up in another battle set - one I'm especially thinking about is Valkyrie in her battle suit + pegasus.

As expected (and dreaded) - the Gauntlet set is said to mix gold with tan pieces. Re: Korg, what if the "not in AC/CMF" info was early on and he got moved to the CMF? because unless we're gonna see additional set numbers popping up in the next few days the only place left for him to show up is the CMF or the benatar set if him or Drax got mistaken for Chitauri (assuming they saw prelim pics that use white prototype figures).

Are we sure those are actual existing set numbers or Lego just skipping them? 3 more sets is just piling up on the "too good to be true" news. Also from a discord server I am in, someone got a notification about the Carnage helmet from Target - preorders for it will start 8pm CST on the 11th (tomorrow).

I also just noticed the Carnage head is asymmetrical - the right eye uses a 2x2 macaroni tile unlike the left one, as well as some other different parts on the cheeks.

This is the fight of our lives part where we basically vote with our wallets! Definitely getting the Cap and BP sets, and if the daily bugle ends up being a monolithic building like the GB HQ it'll be hard to pass up on it, not to mention any useful parts from the CMF!

Hot damn, that list is something. My wallet is gonna be drained this year

As it was mentioned before, this really seems the best opportunity for Lego to finally give us Daredevil given the "18+" nature of the set. The other thing I think we can expect is an alleyway, since I feel that's a kinda common element of NY/spiderman and who knows, maybe to let us recreate suit up scenes, alleyway fights or the infamous upside down kiss. The one I'm gonna guess is that one of the floors will be partially dedicated to some sort of secret villain lair (Lizard/GG/Doc Ock?), because I can't see them making just various floors with the same repetitive office layout with the only different one being the top floor with JJJ's office. Semi-OT but if this sells well, I wonder if we could see a D2C Daily Planet set.

I think there could be more implications about this set that we should think about - the obvious one being that if it sells well, then Lego knows there is indeed a demand for marvel location sets, possibly growing our chances of getting a D2C Sanctum/Avengers Tower/Baxter Tower/X mansion. If it is indeed modular, I might just consider buying it and replacing some buildings in my street for it just to support the notion of more Marvel location sets. Also shame Venom is not a bigfig. What's it gonna take for Lego to make one? Marvel could probably outright buy Sony and make Venom the next star of the MCU and Lego would still either give us a minifig or a brick-built one

Am I the only one thinking this might be modular building style? It might stick out a bit but it would encourage marvel/non-lego fans to get the modulars.

Makes sense, LT CMF is set to release around April so it'd be 4 months for every CMF.

Thinking about spidey, could it be Oscorp building? Or is that too dull/boring to be made into a set?

I'm actually kinda worried about the Gauntlet set, only because I'm expecting it to be a mix of pearl gold, metallic gold and dark tan.

The Mandalorian should've been enough for them to see how profitable they are, and we're seeing them catching up with a bunch of Mando sets this year. If they really don't do anything this year I'd expect something next year then.
