deskp Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Thank you! Wish we could see under the mask though! Also not really a fan of the printed lines now that we're seeing up close. Pretty sure the head under is the same as the avenegrs tower suits. They were printed to show in the bap between the 2 parts of the ultron eahd pieces. There was no reason for lego to make those pieces special for the aveners tower ones, so its just a reused from ultron. Quote

It will be interesting to see how well the orange shows up in a different light. Maybe a solid red head is the way to go? Quote
The Legonater Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Is there a site somewhere that lists the international pricing for the sets? FBTB's coverage used to be so good and included all that, but they seem to have slacked off lately. Quote

Amazing Bricks Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) Not a bad set, i hope its $40 and not more than that. Edited February 16, 2015 by amazingbricks Quote
ghostmind Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) My crystal ball says "TRU exclusive and 405pcs for $49.99". I hope it's broken. Edited February 16, 2015 by ghostmind Quote
Scarilian Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Here you go. Ultron Pime custom helmet by luiggis62, on Flickr It looks alright, probably going to use this method and use the orange head from the Attack On Avengers Tower The scale is exactly as it should be. Actually its probably not, it should be 10 Lego heads in height. Figures are 4 heads, Hulk is 7 heads, Hulkbuster should be 10. The actual toy version we are getting is well over that height -snip- Kevkipo is going to be happy :P Quote
kevkipo Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) Kevkipo is going to be happy :P YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII * snips * Edited February 16, 2015 by kevkipo Quote
LMB10 Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Looks a really bare set. Hope it's cheap. Quote
Legoman123 Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) The minifigure line up is one good thing at least. The actual fortress part is too small, the set should be called 'The Hydra Outpost Smash'. Edited February 16, 2015 by Legoman123 Quote
Dharkan Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 If it's 50 bucks I'd rather get Quicksilver from Bricklink. Quote
greeklad97 Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Looks a really bare set. Hope it's cheap. It would almost be a crime if it cost any more than $40... Quote
Jay_Em Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Looks like the Hydra sets are the weakest in this wave. This one is possibly the worst of them all. Quote
Scarilian Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) As for thoughts on the set... i feel if they scrapped the idea of the Vehicle they could have probably given us a second tower or something which could have helped beef-up the set Looks a really bare set. Hope it's cheap. Well the Hulkbuster Smash set was $29.99/£34.99 and i believe i read somewhere that it was the cheapest way to get the Hulk... as such i would'nt be suprised if this set is about around the £49.99 area YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII xD Now we just need images of the back of the building :3 Edited February 16, 2015 by Scarilian Quote
lightningtiger Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Must have the old TRU tax on that set......might be a pass for many people and the price on Quicksilver might sky-rocket ? Quote
kevkipo Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Don't matter what the price is, i'll buy it. Still have 25 Euro's in VIP points anyway Where did Ghostmind get those pics anyway? Quote
Captain Nemo Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Hothbricks on Flickr says the set is € 59.99 for 405 pieces. Which is really really overpriced. I like the look of this set a lot; and of course it has two really important exlusive characters; but it'll be a tough buy at that price in any country! Quote
Quicksilver Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Quicksilver and Strucker will be nice additions to our collections. This set reminds me of the battle at the black gate LOTR set, being both of the structures needed to be beefed up. Quote
agoodfella77 Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 No leg printing on Quicksilver :( Quote
Quicksilver Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Every year we've had a dud set in the Marvel Superheroes theme being Hulk's Helicarrier Breakout, Iron Man vs Mandarin Ultimate Showdown and The Spider Trike. It is still up in the air whether The Hydra Fortress or Rhino vs Sandman set is the dud of this year. Quote

SMC Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 At the moment I would go with The Hydra Fortress as the 'bad set' although I think we get more than one a year. Quote
K-Nut Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 The dud for me is Rhino vs Sandman hands down, it looks awful Agreed. This set can at least be used for other things besides Sandmans hands. The set looks alright, assuming the price isn't terrible. Otherwise, I'll be getting QS and Strucker off of BL, which would be a shame. Quote
Ultron Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 How are they about to charge $60 for that? It's because they know we need quicksilver.. Quote
Risgrynsgrot Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Worst set is easily The Hydra Fortress Fence, I mean both it and Rhino vs Sandman are poorly designed but atleast Rhino vs Sandman has 3 unique figures compared to 2 (and Quicksilvers printless pants, eh) The price is what seals the deal tough, Hydra Fortress is massively overpriced.
