^^ Its a bit odd/unfair at the different way Lego are going about releasing this promo , cheapest way for most people to get it might be the have it shipped from US.

I hope and reckon that it will be available here with purchases of over £50 too? I mean its only been available with the helicarrier purchases everywhere so far so surely this more open promo will apply here too? I'd be sorely disappointed in Lego if it was only available to the USA, its not usually their way with this sort of Promo, Jor El was available here in June 2013, The Hulk in 2012, Then MM in march last year as there were no DC movies to publicise in June. So i don't see why Winter Soldier would be any different, keep in mind we have not yet seen the UK June calendar.

^ It could be the June promo but the US didn't get it with the helicarrier like we did so why would that be, looks like they might be doing it differently?

So do any of you reckon Sainsbury/target will get an exclusive figure for AOU's Blu Ray?

Here are my ideas for what if this did happen we could get:

Ultron Drone (Red) just a simple printing recolor but nice to have, pretty easy for Lego to make.

Final Ultron: Again just some new printing for torso and silver like Ultimate but with dark sliver print and this time have it have a head with red eyes and mouth and use the helmet from the Iron Man vs Ultron set and have a neck piece like Lego's "Ultimate Ultron".

Thor: Sleeveless, flesh arms instead of gunmetal silver, simple and doesn't require new molds and creates a variant, maybe they could print the wrist metal things but that doubtful.

Bruce Banner: A long sought after person, who is front and centre in this film.

Hawkeye: reuse the Avengers 1 torso and legs, add the brown sleepyhead hair and have him have the hydra chase head. Cheap to make just a parts reshuffle.

The Cap without helmet from the helicarrier.

Any of theese would make cool Blu Ray add on figures. Plus all would be relatively easy to do, new printing on some, but no new molds.

I hope not, it would be sad if we didn't get a June promo figure this year, we've had one every year since like 2012. The second hand prices for Winter Soldier are vomit worthy, at people's greed. £30 plus, for something intended to be a free? Disgusting. I hope we get the promo over here too.

That's speculation on your end and not a rumor :(

I hope Winter Soldier will be available worldwide in June. It wasn't fair at all he was the bonus only while buying Helicarrier back in March.

So, I guess reused faces in the summer sets are real deal, right? :sceptic:

I know I'm super late to the party on this, but I just built the Quinjet and hadn't read any reviews of it (or even looked all that closely at the back of the box), so the feature where Widow pops out from under the wing surprised me and I was childishly delighted by it. Might be my favorite set of the wave.

Well damn. That Hulkbuster is simply amazing! Any chance of getting instructions?

No idea. But his creations deserve more views

It may be worth noting that Lego designers have limitations like parts count, usage, stability, and age ranges.

I don't think it's fair to compare the offical version with custom ones, to just act like the offical version is absolute crap (I cannot recall these same thoughts before the set came out, only after when the excessive Mod versions started rolling in)--because as we know, 9.9 times out of 10, the custom is always going to be better looking since the builders do not have the limitations the designers do. Point being, for what we got, I think the offical Hulkbuster is amazing. It is a spectacular mech and even more spectacular considering its for a thirty dollar set. And it may not be perfect, but it's fairly accurate--especially considering what it could have been like--ala Mandarin golf cart.
