Oh, which TRU is that?

Do you have any more info regarding the Rocket polybags in the UK? Is that a recent thing?

I wish, those have some usefulness for making different suits. Would love a cheap way to get Iron Man helmets.

Might be wrong but didn't the Bat-mech from this year's DC wave accommodate the super jumper somehow?

Pretty sure there won't be any sets based on films not made by Marvel Studios.

Big fan of Doctor Who, very pleased to hear this. What are the chances of getting a Lego Doctor Who videogame? If produced to the same standards as the other Lego games it would be the best Doctor Who videogame in history.

Hope we get better pictures of the AoU sets soon, particularly the Quinjet.

I think it looks good enough. But does anyone else dislike the printed 'curves' Lego are adding to female figures? To me they just stand out and detract, rather than adding any curviness.

Just tried the A-pillar modification myself, and noticed the flick-fire missile piece you used doesn't have a hollow end- did you have to modify it to fit the T shaped piece in the end?

I think it looks great. That shot with the hatch removed and all the microfigures inside makes me realise what they were going for. The miniature planes and vehicles on deck are cool as well. Black Widow, Cap and Hawkeye all look great, I'm glad those aren't exclusives and that the Quinjet comes with two of them. Nick Fury and Maria Hill are pretty nice, but not especially groundbreaking. I'm surprised by Coulson's absence for sure. Of course I'd never be able to afford it, and I'd struggle to justify the cost anyway, but I think LEGO have done a good job. Not sure what more you could ask for at this price, other than a better minifigure selection.

I reckon it will have an interior of some sort; it seems pretty deep to me. Mini figures still very possible.

I imagine they split it between film and existing TV series, because film related sets have the slight risk of the film flopping. Not so likely with Marvel, I realise, but still a possibility.

Pretty sure F4 sets aren't a possibility because Marvel is trying to cut all merchandise related to stuff owned by Fox.

Looks very nice, the pale green and deep pink go well together. I now see why people dislike the new capes though.

Ah I see what you mean. It's cool.

How do you know? It's called Shield Sky Attack, so I think there'd be a Shield agent.

That's a good idea, how would the coloured head look on the one without the neck piece?

I tihnk it's a bit silly to judge this year's Mechs already. The Hulkbuster hasn't been released yet, we only have pictures from a couple angles, and one person who has seen it IRL spoke very highly of it. As he did of Rhino- a figure we've only seen in blurry photos of prelims that might not even be the finished article yet.

Sounds promising, which piece is that?

Think I'll reserve judgment until we get proper pictures. Excited by the Carnage set though.

I'm not sure you've thought this through

CapnRex101 just confirmed that the Toy Fair labels put the Quinjet at £60 and the Tower at £70. Yeah, it's surprising, but I'm not complaining ;)

Are you getting that from the labels in the Argos catalog? Because I think that was incorrect, if you look in the full description in the margin the Tower is £70 and the Quinjet £60, which is what we'd heard before. Not 100% sure though.

Hadn't noticed the capsule- couldn't it be stowed inside the truck, though? And how do you know what size the trapdoor in the back is? I thought we'd only seen pictures of the side/front?

Wow, that's quite something. Though I reckon about 1/5th of those figures are Batman! So how many are you missing? Only figures I can't see are the original Spider Man ones, such as Green Goblin, and some of the original Batman ones, like Killer Croc.
