Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion

[Plissken]

nice bike! Can you also take some pics of Hobgoblin and his glider please?

Okay, here they are.

I really like the little glider. It is the perfect size for the figure and fits very well in a city layout (much better than the oversized bike ).

The Hobgoblin is also a great figure. The torn cape is nice and I love the double-sided face. The dual-molded legs seem to be the exact same ones as for Deathstroke in the DC line.

[tafkatb]

Yeah. Thought it was a matter between hard (ABS afaik ) plastic and soft ( which i dont know the term for ).

That's what i mean't.

For transparent pieces, polycarbonate is typically used rather than ABS. I have no idea if this tidbit actually contributes anything to the discussion at hand.

It's a great figure but in my opinion he would look better with pupils, thanks for the images though, it's definitely on my 'to-buy' list

[Amazing Bricks]

Hobgoblin looks amazing! I definitely like that alternate face and glider. I hate the ghost rider head piece. The question now is, is the pumpkin bomb in the bridge battle the same thing?

Thanks for the pics! Hobgoblin is my favorite Spidey villain ( those who grew up watching 90s Spider-Man cartoon will understand), and his minifigure is awesome! Head printing is especially spot on, torso is highly detailed, that's the most I could have wished from this minifigure. His glider looks cool, even though it seems much bulkier than Green Goblins in Bridge set. Overall can't wait for June 1st to order this set from Amazon .

To be fair, he's not usually depicted with pupils.

Thanks, at least I got educated on the subject. Im pretty sure a lot of other EB users find this usefull as well. There must be a reason why they decided to make this hair piece molded together with the face this way.

Anyway it looks awesome.

Indeed though I loved TAS version of the character who did indeed have pupils

[TheBrickHitHouse]

Those plain legs on ghost rider annoy me - the guy is on fire, c'mon Lego!!

[vstat05]

I actually like how Hobgoblin has those big red eyes without any pupils, it's comic accurate and it makes him look very unsettling.

With Ghost rider's situation, there's just no satisfying everyone. Its never been unlike of Lego to have two pieces molded together, and now people are skipping this entire set because of that? Nobody was expecting this at all, I understand, but that shouldn't detract from the quality of the figure as well as the entire set. I mean unless you just intended to buy it for that flame piece to put on another figure, which I now realize are probably the majority of those disappointed.

I agree, I'm not a big customiser and when I do, I change them back for the most part, so the kragle doesn't bother me that much. I do however think it's a bit silly to let a small detail like that deter you from buying a set

[BaneShake]

Heh, Hobgoblin resembles Etrigan the Demon from DC. The way Lego keeps reusing everyone's faces in the super heroes sets, I wonder if they're doing that here??? (Kidding... I think...)

Heh, he really does

The Dick piece itself

They got my Dick message!

Sorry.

[tafkatb]

I dont think its legit to assume that. LEGO just released a set with a tile printed with the word "dick" on it. That's even "worse" than a flame headpiece imo.

Side note: I know a guy who works at the Disney Springs LBR store, and their displays have to conform to Disney's brand standards. They had to either turn the "DICK" sign backwards or leave the sliding bookcase partially shut to cover it.

And it's not like this is the first time they've released elements that were kragled combination of ABS and trans plastic. Several of the characters from the final Ultra Agents wave had helmets/headpieces that used the same technique.

Yeah, just seems to be overreacting to me

Just2good made a top 20 most wanted sets of summer 2016 video. It has some new pictures of the Spiderman set.

That's rediculous, it's a name for crying out loud. Do people working there named Dick have to censor their names too?

Sorry sir, I can't tell you my name. Store policy

This made my day!

We should get back on topic, though.

Thanks for posting the Ghost Rider set pics Plissken. I can't wait to get it.

Has anybody got the Captain America motorcycle polybag yet?

That hobgoblin is perfect!
