So I just finished playing the LEGO Avengers Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D Level Pack (Cool level, by the way, lots of nice nods to the show!) and afterwards, there is The Bus available in free-roam, but it is a scaled down version of it, sized similar to the Avenegrs S.H.I.E.L.D Quinjet as in-game it uses the same mechanics as the Quinjet. The design, however, does not look too bad, and makes for a pretty awesome looking vehicle! There are also quite a few new character designs for S.H.I.E.L.D in the game, so I think now is more time for a set than ever! S.H.I.E.L.D Deathlok Attack 1x S.H.I.E.L.D Bus design from the game with accessible cockpit, opening rear cargo ramp, moving engines, firing stud shooting turrets and a fold-down rope feature on the ramp similar to the Quinjet in Airport Battle. 1x Small Structure with exploding feature and catapult to flick explosive barrels at the jet. 1x Agent Coulson (Either Original Outfit or S3 Outfit), 1x Agent May, 1x Agent Daisy, 1x Agent Morse, 1x Deathlok, 1x Grant Ward £69.99

This set was meh for me at first, but after having time to break it down and digest it, I love it! The accompaniment to Airport Battle (Which I got for my Birthday on Thursday and has to be my favourite set to date) was a great move, and the minifigures included in the set are phenomenal! Hawkeye and Spiderman are great, and Vision getting the slight update is perfect! I just wish Cap's torso print lost the red triangles but hey - it's close enough! Day One purchase for me!

I saw it at midnight last night aswell and I thought the CGI was a little patchy with Iron Man at times like mentioned, but it didn't really get bad enough to detract from the film for me. Overall a great film and I really, really enjoyed it! Exactly what I feel they needed after the mixed reception that Age of Ultron received!

Thank you for clearing that up Jase

I personally think the face could pass as Thunderbolt Ross if given the right hairpiece. I'm excited to hear about the possibility of getting General Ross, as whilst he may not be the most interesting character, he seems to be a catalyst for the Civil War and as such is definitely a character I'd love to have represented in minifigure form. If he is included, I feel as though that adds more credibility to the idea that this playset could actually be set aboard the R.A.F.T facility, one of the few things we know very little about within the film.

Thanks buddy. Sounds like the play features are well implemented to not effect the aesthetic of the build. Pretty excited for this one

Thanks for the update Justin - you're the best So would you say it is very much a vignette style set as opposed to one filled with play features and such? If so, this will definitely be a welcome change to the norm

I really like the design of the Gas Station but if it is overly expensive, as many of you guys are saying it will be, then I will pick it up on sale. I also love the private jet - I want to use it as a mayoral/presidential transport, but again, will most likely wait till a sale. What is up with the pilot's left eye in the starter set?

So I got the Black Panther Jet set and firstly - the jet is GORGEOUS. It feels so much more substantial then the fighter jet design I'm used to (Think S.H.I.E.L.D/Green Lantern) and the angled pieces used for both the wings and the body give it a very sleek and very stealthy appearance. I definitely feel as though it fits Black Panther's character well, and is a nice way of 'modernizing' the minifigures more traditional powers if you like. The minifig itself has nice print, and whilst the blank legs and arms are incredibly noticeable at first, once you get used to the figure, it's nice. Bucky is fantastic - the new print on the Civil War metal arm as opposed to the Polybag one is another step up and looks phenomenal. The Jeep has a nice feel to it and actually has a rather large capacity - easily fitting three figures, possibly four at a push, presenting a nice option for transporting some of Steve's team. The only downside, in my eyes, is Steve himself. The caramel hair colour isn't as accurate as a tan one (Here's hoping we see this piece in that colour soon) and the lack of new print really sticks out like a sore thumb. Cap is my favourite character, and yet I found the minifigure incredibly bland due to no new arm/leg printing which there was an opportunity for here. It feels like an incredibly overused minifigure. Overall, a great set, but be wary that Cap is lacking somewhat in my opinion.

Looks great! I think the all-grey look is much more accurate then the colour palette TLG decided to go with. This definitely maintains the feel of the original whilst adding some nice upgrades! Great job :)

I think this will make quite a nice EB appreciation topic

Hey All! So I was just sat at my desk on the laptop when I looked over and saw my Heath Ledger Joker - probably the rarest minifigure I own, and only because of the generosity of CopMike and the Raffles he runs at Christmas. That then got me thinking about this place, and how happy it makes me to log in everyday and see new stuff to talk about and new things to do. It's a weird and out of the blue post, I know, but I wanted to thank every single member here for making Eurobricks to positive community it is. Whether it be those who hold giveaways, those who post LDD instructions for cool stuff, those who create exciting characters in the roleplay scenarios, or simply members like me who comment on threads and get into discussions. Each and every single one of you makes Eurobricks the community it is, and has helped make my collecting experience all the more better. I love LEGO, and I love having a place where we can all discuss it. So that's a little appreciation for your Friday morning I suppose - thank you all for being here! Tom

Really, really cool build. I love the use of a lot of technic knob pieces and things to really fully capture the Steampunk theme you were going for. I like it

Thanks bud. The other thing I was thinking of is potentially the scene with Bucky/Cap/Iron Man fighting at the end of trailer one, as there is clearly some kind of structure there. I wouldn't be surprised if we get some battle damaged characters and maybe a new character thrown in. I'm not expecting great things in terms of minifigs as I'd imagine we'll see at least one or two reused, BUT, considering they aren't revealing it for so long due to a spoiler, this spoiler sequence will most definitely contain at least one new character IMO. Who knows.....maybe the spoiler is the Coulson MCU cameo I've been waiting for

I wonder if, perhaps, there are any action sequences on the R.A.F.T within the new film? We know LEGO love their jail/holding cell themed sets...

I thought it was, but thanks for clearing it up man! I love the idea of this and am definitely going to be venturing into the RPG forums more regularly now, as it's something I used to do on my old Doctor Who forums!

I think I already mentioned it but I'll say it again since it's something I am passionate about - I am all for more S.H.I.E.L.D vehicles in the Marvel sets, to be displayed alongside our Superheros and Villains. They have a plethora of characters to choose from - any of the Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D cast, Coulson, the S.T.R.I.K.E style soldiers, more conventional Comic Designs and characters, the generic MCU uniform designs, etc. They also have a plethora of vehicles which already exist through the games - things like the S.H.I.E.L.D Car and Cargo Truck, and even The Bus, which is going to be a vehicle featuring in some LEGO Avengers DLC later in the year. All of these existing designs feel like perfect potential for me, as a big army builder and S.H.I.E.L.D fan.

I'm unsure if this is the right thread for this, but I am a big Marvel fan and would definitely be up for joining in with this as a new character. If someone could PM me if that is possible, I'd appreciate that. If it's too late, I understand.

Guys - simple solution for the Falcon Backpack that looks great - take the 2x2 slope piece that has the sticker on for the drone, give it a 1x2 piece of the same colour in the gap and place on the wings. Streamlined and looks perfect IMO. Just need a good leg solution and some brown arms for my Falcon now! I also gave Crossbones the original Hawkeye legs with the two buckles and they work fantastic

I love it

Anyone think the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D pack may slightly increase our chances of getting an Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D set? I'd like to hope it would as the show is pretty mainstream now.

In which case - fantastic outcome man :) I look forward to seeing more of your stuff in the future

If all the parts are available through the LEGO Parts order service, I am definitely making one of these now, and sourcing some stickers! Thank you so much - it's really kind of you to share such an awesome design for nothing. It's part of what makes me love the LEGO Community. How long did the design and these minifigures take you? I was looking at your Flickr and the interior of the Quinjet is awesome too!

Has anyone wondered if there is a way to ask TT/LEGO to release the instructions for the vehicles in the LEGO Avengers game to the public? If they did that I'd definitely order parts to make Lola, 1 of the S.H.I.E.L.D Truck, 2 of the S.H.I.E.L.D Cars and the S.H.I.E.L.D Helicopter and Avengers V.T.O.L

Great job - I really hope we see S.H.I.E.L.D Agents from the show in future sets now it is getting a fourth season! Is there any chance of instructions for the Quinjet? Your design is awesome
