Marvel spring & summer 2016 releases

in Collecting
In anticipation of the new "Captain America - Civil War", Lego will release 4 sets based on that. We have now hi-res images for box art and minifigures.

What do you think of each of them?
How do they compare to last year's releases?
Which might be the last unknown set to be published in summer?

    I noticed Huw had put images for these on the database and was looking over them, I'm probably more excited about these sets (for the great mini figure mix than the film.
    LEGO really seem to have got the unique figs per set so much better in these than they have in the past.
    Definitely want the airport set for the Ant-man/Giant man and it's great to see Black Widow in a low price point doing something that she actually does in the MCU - riding a motorbike and fighting, rather than being relegated to the pilot role.

    Does Falcon have Finn's hair?

    I think that should be lower. I doubt it will be low!

    Compared to only being in the Quinjets I count it as low, anything sub £30 in a licensed theme to me is a low price point set.

    I believe so

    So looking forward to these, especially the airport battle, the Ant-Man built fig looks awesome, I just hope his parts are printed, not stickers.
    INDYJONASjohnhenzxiahnaVBaskin2008
  • ShibShib UKMember Posts: 5,090
    Given that it would take at least 9 printed parts by my count I think it's safest to assume they'll use stickers - remember it's not just the cost of printing each part, but each new print then adds a new part to inventory, stock, sort etc the logistics of printed parts push up the cost far more than the actual cost of printing them in my opinion.

    I'm really looking forward to the Giant-Man. And from the lack of Ant-Man figs for sale on bricklink, I think lots of others are too

    Is the winter soldier in these the same one they gave out in polybags?

    According to the 1.HY lego catalogue they will come in March for Europe. Not sure for US or other areas of the world.

    ^That sounds about right for everywhere. A month before the movie comes out more or less.

    For me 76047 will be probably too pricey for just similarly 3 minifigures and among them is winter soldier which I have from the poly. Although the new one is better since he has less comical and movie accurate prints on face and body.
    In conclusion I would prefer to have the hopefully cheaper set 76050( got only 179 parts vs 287). It has more desirable figs and nicely bulky jeep.
    Not really sure about the final prices.

    If I hadn't seen the movies and only the LEGO sets, I would think that the MCU is chock-full of All-terrain trucks and jets.  

    Throw-away (i.e., scrap for MOCs) builds and cool figures, as always.

    @RomanticWarrior: 
    Totally Agree! Certainly to some extent you can even apply this deficiency to other licensed themes (LotR, DC, SW, JW, etc) especially when referring to small and medium sized sets: vehicles and small sceneries in addition. Collectors buy those for the figures, are happy about them and make space for MOCs since the look better on display (I did that as well e.g. for Hulk Helicarrier Breakout, Mirkwood spider hobbit set and others). Other people like resellers often tend to "scrap" them (small - large sets), too, but with the difference selling the salvaged parts separately.
    Alternatively to satisfy the demand for display sets wanted by AFOLs, LEGO came up with the concept of the modular and UCS line which can cover both aspects: figs and display pieces. 

    Good vehicle or small terrain based sets worth to be kept are rare. Maybe Rey's speeder or Ant "plane" of the small Ant-man set last year may serve as example? (Both sets I am on the fence to get them or not.)

    My guess for the unknown fourth set: It will have Spider Man, Iron Man and Cap from a scene in the movie where Peter is trying to decide whose side to join..

    That's a lot of Spider-Man minifigs. He is getting to be as bad as Batman. Although at least Batman gets variants.

    That would have been hilarious if LEGO include their 3:1 scale Minifigure that they use for designing new moulds for Minifigures as Giant-Man.

    I'm very disappointed with these sets, the Minifigures are great as always but the models just seem to get worse and worse. I can't blame them if that is exactly what's in the MCU film/s. If I was forced to choose one based on overall model and Minifigure selection it would be #76047 - Black Panther Pursuit as the best set of the wave.

    I would like to see what is included with the fourth Civil War set #76067 and the Doctor Strange set. Fingers crossed for a Spider-Man Minifigure! A picture of a hoodie is surfacing around online, if that is any indication to what the design of the Spidey suit will be or not.

    I thought the builds look quite decent. There has been worse. The large built figure in #76051 looks pretty spectacular to me. The planes also look not too bad at all. Kids love swooshing planes and pushing cars.

    Ghost Rider? Dr. Strange? maybe Nightmare or Dormammu? Now we're talkin'.

    The only three MCU sets I like for the models are the following, ranked:

    1. #76039 - Ant-Man Final Battle
    2. #76006 - Extremis Sea Port Battle
    3. #76021 - The Milano Spaceship Rescue

    I understand as long as they appeal to the kids they will be successful products, you can't please everyone. I have a strict vision and approach to what appeals to me and what doesn't.

    My thoughts on the vehicles are that Lego has to include something other than minifigures.  With these Marvel movies, the action is really with the characters themselves.  To keep it true to being a Lego set there has to be something to build, even if it's not entirely film accurate.  I may not care too much about having another Quinjet type of plane, but it's there for a  reason.

    Why not make smaller vehicles then? Then they can load these things up with new characters or variations. Give us some more obscure characters. I'd like to see a minifig for everyone on the Avengers roster, past and present.

    I hope that Dr Strange set has the Sanctum Sanctorum in it. With a printed tile of the window. That would be epic. Most likely the "bad guy" in that set will be Baron Mordo, but I'm hoping that they also include Dormammu or Nightmare. 

    I wonder what villain will be included in the Ghost Rider set. Ghost Rider and Spiderman have teamed up numerous times, the only villain of significance I can remember is the Hobgoblin. That would be cool.

    This is actually the first time that I have been excited about new super hero sets. Up until this point I have just been getting them for my kids, but Dr Strange and Ghost Rider are definitely for me. Keep those Midnight Sons sets rolling!

    Also, with a brickbuilt AntMan, could a brickbuilt Galactus be in the future? We can only hope!

    Because they wouldn't be able to charge as much for the sets then, due to smaller piece counts.

    Spider-Man is quite ubiquitous.  Just for fun, a Spider-Man/Batman cross-over set would be excellent and frustrating all at once.

    The price we pay for MARVEL's war of attrition with FOX over FF & X-Men. My hope is that FOX will end their run of woeful movies with Age of Apocalypse, cancel the sequel to the Fraktastic Bore & leave us with the high note that looks to be Deadpool. From there MARVEL can salvage these franchises & introduce them into the MCU & perhaps allow TLG to start making more sets.

    They should put a series of street vignettes in each set on which the superheroes can destroy stuff while they fight. A ground level fight, a wall from which Spidey jumps, etc. Put them together for a massive battle damage scene! Better than another Avenjet, etc.

    I saw here in South East Asia several of these bad clones since longer. Among them Ghost Rider:

    I hope Lego will beat them with their original sets in terms of design and quality. Pretty curious how the Lego designers will shape Ghost Rider's headpiece, hopefully more than just on the surface with some flaming graphics.
