Oh my Gooooooddd *oh2* *oh2*

Man, those CA:CW sets are amazing.

I'll definitely get that Black Panther set as a whole. The jet looks very cool and Black Panther seems to look good as well (though it does have a Darth Maul-type 'crown' on his head resembling the ears :sceptic:).

Cap's hair in that set awesome too (though I don't think it's Superman's in a different color, just similar to it).

About the airport set: I agree that Giant Man indeed looks truly terrific. It definitely resembles a giant version of the Ant Man minifig. Great job, TLG :thumbup:

Furthermore, that War Machine minifig is absolutely amazing! :wub: It's finally in the proper colooorrs :excited: Definitely my favorite minifig of the CA:CW sets :cry_happy:

The Crossbones sets looks cool too, but not that interesting to me personally.

Thanks for posting the pictures, Bissspuren and CM4Sci :sweet::thumbup:

Regards,

Mitch

Okay, after cleaning up some *ahem* mess *ahem* off my laptop screen, man I am in love with these Civil War sets! Only three means easy purchases and justification to get all three, so that definitely makes me happy.

Black Panther Set

The Jet actually looks very nice - it has a little more weight to it then the usual jets we get (SHIELD Jet, Green Lantern Jet, etc.) so I am very excited to get my hands on it. Sure, I'm not necessarily thrilled with the fact that Black Panther gets Cat Ears and not a helmet, but it's definitely not the end of the world. Cap's jeep actually looks pretty nice, and with some minor mods I reckon it'd make a pretty awesome Willys Jeep styled-vehicle. I appreciate LEGO having the guts to try a new jeep design. Helmetless Cap looks great, and getting Bucky in a small set with that beautiful bike is definitely a plus. This will probably be my day one purchase from the wave.

Crossbones Set

Black Widow in a small set- YES! I love Black Widow, as does my friend, so if this is the same print as the AOU Natasha then I have a spare one which my friend can have, and she'd greatly appreciate that. Glad to see LEGO attempting the batons too - although some printing for a 'grip' would be nice, they are definitely acceptable. Getting another one of the bike is fantastic too - some slight differences from the one in the AOU Quinjet make it nice whilst allowing both Cap and Natasha to now have their own bikes. Definitely happy about that. Crossbones vehicle looks very ramshackle and I am not overly keen on the design, although again, LEGO are trying new stuff and I appreciate that. Looking forward to getting Crossbones in my collecting.

Airport

For a big set I was expecting something pretty spectacular, and LEGO do not fail to deliver! Agent 13, War Machine and the brand-new outfit for Wanda in this set all make it a immediate purchase - their new outfits look fantastic and I am incredibly satisfied with how they have come out. The Mini Quinjet looks pretty great - not too many distinctions from the AOU one, but some subtle enough differences to make a new version acceptable. Plus, the Avengers compound had multiple of these vehicles, so I don't mind more as I imagine they may be prevalent within the film itself. Giant Man is fantastic - for a brick-build LEGO have knocked him out the park. The inclusion of Mini Ant-Man is an incredibly nice touch too. Lastly, the actual control tower looks good - it looks pretty nicely detailed, and the inclusion of the fencing and the small airport supply truck does so much more to set the scene than background pieces we may have got in previous sets. Fantastic work LEGO.

Overall, incredibly happy with this lineup. All three sets are immediate purchases. Sure, new printing on Cap or a new helmet would've been nice, and a couple of other characters would've been cool, but for what it is and from what the trailer has shown us, this is an incredibly good lineup. LEGO's MCU sets have always been incredibly strong in my opinion, and 2016 is shaping up to be another great year. :sweet:

The Black Panther chase will be my day one purchase, probably the Airport as well

But i always feel so ashamed carrying a big box of Lego out of the Lego Store as an adult :blush: Ahh crap who cares i'm just buying it!

I'm not blazed away by these sets, but i do love the giantman (and him as microfig)! I also want that Black Panther. Two of the four sets have Winter Soldier in them. I hope they are not completely similar. War machine and crossbones look good too. Does Falcon have the thin wings, or are those a new mold? The builds look acceptable, but these sets are all about the figs of course.

The microracers are of no interest to me. But i do like the spidey head. Yeah, i'm going to buy that.

Hey look, first pictures! That was unexpected. And the fact they are really disappointing was unexpected, to...

Mighty Micros: Gosh, they are awful! These minifigs look like some clone brand. Their faces are just terrible. :sick: Throroughly disappointing, won't buy any. :sceptic:

Crossbones set: A car? Eh, I was expecting market stalls. Oh well. A car, fine. But why does it look like something Deathstroke would ride? Minifigs are average. Falcon could have been much better, Black Widow is not very original, but I don't have her yet (thus I'll forgive the discrepancy about her hairstyle), but Crossbones is so much missing the potential. Printed condom hand instead of a helmet? :cry_sad:

Black Panther set: Jet is average. So is the car. All right, let's take a look at minifigs. Helmetless Steve with new hair? Count me in. Winter Soldier? Looks promising. What the hell, Darth Maul? Necromancer? Nah, Black Panther without a new helmet mould. Huge letdown! :thumbdown:

Airport set: Jet is boring and makes it an expensive set. Giant-Man is great. Glad they went the "big minifig" route, not the "Sentinel" one. Tower and car look OK. Now the minifigs: Wanda with proper accurate hair in expensive set. :sadnew: New Iron Man in expensive set. :angry: Same goes for War Machine and Agent 13. :wacko: And for Cap, too, who may be rehashed, but I don't have him yet. My opinion: great figs, not so great set. Even worse prize tag.

Hey, comic Ultron is beautiful. You take that back!

Err...what?

Ojik... is it that time of the month again? :grin:

Just kidding i see understand your points of view, but in my opinion Black Panther does look decent, since the helmet is really form fitting. It kinda grew on me now.

I just wish they swapped such an easy to customize figure like Agent 13 with Hawkeye, but oh well we haven't gotten her yet so!

Overall rating: 8/10 they look very promising!

Fair assessment. Only a few things I'm displeased with for the moment.

Crossbones set: Another $20 set with a 4x4. At least this one is a little more unique. Also I think Falcon is bland. He should be dark gray, not light and he needs leg printing. Black Widow is good, although I would've liked 3x1 batons with printing. Crossbones looks fine, more comicy than movie though.

Panther Jet: Decent Build. Panther looks good from what I can see but that could change. Jeep thing is bad but I don't care so much about that. It's nice to get Steve, especially one that's better than that super lamely thrown-together one we got in the Helicarrier.

Airport: Great builds. I really like the tower. I think it's the best control tower we've ever seen, even from the airport theme. Giant Man is also awesome. Figs are great. I was expecting Cap to be the same as AoU but it's hard to make out if Tony is any different. He should be. We didn't need another Quinjet though. I'd rather have more airport builds like a terminal or something.

Not sure why I felt the need to ramble about these but sometimes it's nice just to analyze the sets and pretend people care what I have to say :grin:

Is Black Panther smiling?

No, don't think so.

Giant man is fantastic! However, we did not need another Quinjet! Come on people!

Otherwise, I think all the minfigures are great (certain Mighty Micros aside) and the helmet less Cap is awesome to get! Falcon is great! Black Panther is a first day purchase for sure, possibly the Crossbones set. Have to save up for that Airport with the new stuff coming, plus it may be nice but it can wait.

No Hawkeye, vision or regular antman :sad:

Maybe they will be in that smaller set after the movie comes out

I've compared my normal Ant Man to the brick built Giant Man and its the same costume. So the microfigure should be the same.

Reckon the last set will have Iron Man, Hawkeye and maybe Spidey

Sets aren't great, but they're good. Why another quinjet? :wacko: Crossbones and Caps cars just look bad. Black panthers jet and the whole airport set look great, especially Giant Man and micro Ant Man. He'll go well with the micro figs from the Helicarrier. All the figs looks great. It doesn't really matter if I like them or not, I'm still going to buy all three sets. :laugh:

Does Bucky have the same torso print as the polybag?
