I would adore that! The UCS Hulkbuster is also an interesting idea but I don’t think it’ll happen. Quote

A leak showed a Hulkbuster helmet - it appeared to be midway between the Mk 1 Hulkbuster from AoU and the Mk 2 Hulkbuster we've seen in the trailer for Infinity War. We also had the Mk 43 variant shown around the same time, surprisingly the first images we got of this variant featured a transparent clear head implying it was a drone of some kind or an empty suit. Later versions, including the one i own, all feature a generic Tony Stark head. So perhaps the suit is not worn by Tony in the movie but simply included in the set on display or something. I think we should lean primarily on the info we have been told at the moment, that it's something related to a 'good guy ship' and that its not the Quinjet. The Helicarrier was revealed in official images on Jan 29th and released to VIP's on February 17-28 with a full release on March 1st. I could easily see the Infinity War D2C following a similar sort of layout, though probably pushed back a little if we do not get a VIP release. Either way, not long to wait - two weeks or so i'd guess at the most till we get more information Quote

I mean this might point towards whatever the D2C is having a Hall of Armors type thing if it has a Hulkbuster being upgraded and an empty suit intended for display (think how the Batcave suits for Lego Batman all had white heads).

I speculated a while ago it may be (Or include) a small 'Tony Stark Workshop' so we wouldn't get a full Hulkbuster, just the helmet along with a few other scraps and maybe an Iron Man suit or room to display his suit. It could happen, but not sure what sort of D2C would accommodate that. If it's a vehicle we haven't really seen a situation where it has an interior lab, given we dont know the price it's difficult to judge. Quote

I have heard from a few people that the "good guy vehicle" was actually just that the set included the codewords "good guy" in it. If we couple that with a possible Iron Man workshop, plus the missing figures that aren't Guardians or the Winter Soldier, it points heavily towards Avengers HQ.

ItamatTheGreat Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 I see some confusion about the prices here. The price leaked about a month or so ago as part of the D2C sets list for this year. This is also where ee got the info about the licenesed D2C (which is probably hogwarts), some star-wars ones and an avengers one: it didn't said IW. With that in mind I belive the orice is acurate since it seemed to predict the D2C itself before the source of @SpiderJazz. Quote
SpiderJazz Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Wow, I was surprised with all of your theories and speculation. Quote
MasterofElements Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 I'm just spitballing here, but what are we certain the D2C is for Infinity War, and not just the MCU in general? Avengers Tower is easily the most iconic thing from the MCU, the only thing that'd make me not think it would be that would be that it was sold in Homecoming. One more theory in the spoiler tag... [Backing up the idea of the tower would be the use of "time travel" in Avengers 4. Perhaps the end of the Infinity War deals with time travel, so we'd see the tower once more? Once again, this is just a big guess based on what we know. The Tower could also include a Hall of Armors or workshop area for the Mk. 43 and Hulkbuster head.] Quote

Digger of Bricks Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 The Hulkbuster theory makes sense if you consider that there has been a rejected Ideas project proposing such a set before, much like the Helicarrier Ideas project that preceded the actual set. Quote
RedHoodPug Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Are they likely to make a set based on a smaller set from the same wave of the same theme? This is where someone throws a Star Wars set in to put me back in my box. I know that we have little to go on, but I don’t think it’s hulkbuster. Just my two cents. Quote

GoldenNinja3000 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 I guess we won’t see Ant-Man and the Wasp sets at the New York toy fair, since Lego is not exhibiting any products releasing in June or later. Quote

doclord Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 (edited) I'm slightly concerned about the quality of this D2C if all we've seen that could be a part of it is a single (old) Iron Man suit. Edited January 20, 2018 by doclord Quote

I posted a price list from a German site that said the D2C was priced at 160 euros. This is very much unconfirmed but it is the only place anyone has seen a price for it so people had been going by that in absence of other sources. 7 hours ago, ItamatTheGreat said: I see some confusion about the prices here.

So does that mean they're not making them at all? Do we seriously have to wait till next year for a *chance* at Wasp? The only founding avenger we still don't have. Ugh. Quote

benderisgreat Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Summer catalog confirmed UCS IW set and it looks really big! Definitely more than rumored 160$ Price Quote
ItamatTheGreat Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Guys don't give up hope just yet! Neither the exlucive nor the D2C show up there, plus no aqua man movie sets. I think it still could happan and lego is just better at hiding it. Quote
