Legocity2713 Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 (edited) Seems we have the same designer to thank for Giant-Man and the web warriors bridge. http://brickset.com/sets/list-14595 Someone on NEOGaf has said that this designer is truly one to watch and I wholeheartedly agree. He is doing some awesome things especially with his two biggest sets. Edited June 12, 2016 by Legocity2713 Quote
Ultron Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 (edited) I would guess reasons that they didn't include Gwen in the bridge might be: 1) To maybe avoid the whole classic comic event with her death 2) To get us to buy both the bridge and whatever set she may be in soon If number 2 is true, I would assume she'd be coming maybe in the next winter or summer wave before the bridge is retired. Of course this is all speculative and I probably know nothing Edited June 12, 2016 by Ultron Quote
ChrisW Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Is he the guy from the documentary? Yep, his name is Justin Ramsden. Brickset has a feature at the moment that points to brick lists of different designers and the sets they've created. Looking forward to more of his creations. Quote
PriorMarcus Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 He's rumoured to be designing next year's UCS Marvel set. Quote

Wow this designer has done some fantastic work on all his sets, and considering he only worked in Lego for 1 year, he is a new celebrity designer in Lego! Considering that in my opinion Airport Battle and Bridge Battle are 2 of the best Superhero sets( both Marvel & DC) , I expect great sets from him in 2017. "Guardians 2" biggest set? Hmm... Quote
neithan Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 I still hope for another chance to get my hands on minifig Ant-Man (I think there's a high chance he appears in future sets because he will certanly appear in future Marvel movies) and Quicksilver. Latter is dead of course in the MCU, but I don't mind getting the Quicksilver seen in X-Men. Heck, I just want ANY Quicksilver minifig, but I don't wanna spend 20 bucks on ebay for it... But first things first: Vision! You will be mine! Soon... Quote

NXS7 Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 I've just noticed, the printing on the Bridge's Green Goblin torso is the exact same on both sides Quote

legosamsonite Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Holy cow! J2G brought up something I thought of regarding Mr. T's hair in his live stream! Awesome, made my night Also mentioned we should know about GOTG 2 sets if any in the next week after the licensing expo Quote

Awesome, made my night Also mentioned we should know about GOTG 2 sets if any in the next week after the licensing expo No prob! Sorry I didn't remember your username! And yeah, licensing expo is when we shall find out if GOTG 2 sets will be coming out in 2017, along with Homecoming sets. Quote
PickleManDan Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 And yeah, licensing expo is when we shall find out if GOTG 2 sets will be coming out in 2017, along with Homecoming sets. I think they will make Homecoming sets considering how much Spider-man merchandise they produce. Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 I think they will make Homecoming sets considering how much Spider-man merchandise they produce. Oh yeah, they have to market for a Spider-Man movie. He's way too big a cash cow not to. Actually, looking at next year's release schedule, I doubt we'll be getting ANY comic-based sets next year. We've got Guardians 2, Homecoming, and a Thor/Hulk team-up. Homecoming will probably get the majority of sets, and Guardians will take whatever slots are left with one saved for Ragnarok. Quote
kevkipo Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 1 Thor set and i'll be happy, one with Thor and Hulk and whatever villain. Quote
Monkey Joe Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 That Fountain set looks pretty awesome. Sad I missed out on it. Quote
Alonzo Brickovsky Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Doc Ock mech is the only 2016 Marvel set I don't like. I took out the figures, Doc's new arms (which are much more accurate and superior to old ones), the boat and sold the rest. I also liked 2014's Doc Ock best, but that's the matter of opinion, I simply prefer printed legs to double-moulded ones. Anyway, I'm more than happy with this year's wave and there are at least two more amazing sets to go! I hope Justin Ramsden is making some of 2017 stuff as well. The Bridge Battle is already one of my all-time favourites. Quote
BritishBrickFan Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 That Fountain set looks pretty awesome. Sad I missed out on it. how have you missed out? it's still available.... Quote
Captain Britain Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 That Fountain set looks pretty awesome. Sad I missed out on it. Yeah definitely still available to pick up! If not they aren't tooo expensive on eBay I don't think? Does anyone know what the freebie is for next month? I'll be ordering up a DC set (apologies for posting in Marvel!) but if it's not a great freebie I'll make sure I get my order in whilst the fountain is still about. Build the Doc Ock mech last night.. actually really enjoyed building it! Boat is a bit naff as expected but I was surprised by the mech, seemed really pleasing to build. Would have maybe preferred some sort of a closed cockpit compared to what we got but I still like it. It's a defo keep from me as I've tried to keep all the mech suits etc that I've got my hands on and sold off most of the vehicles. White Tiger is definitely the stand out figure for me (as I'm sure it is most people) and looks great. Vulture is great too, glad we finally got him! Great to get another Doc Ock variant (those legs.. come on comic book Electro!) and Captain Stacy is just a bit of a filler. For £45 though I'm happy with it!

It was actually funnier for me that way, you said the idea, and I was like "hey, yeah thats a good idea for yondu" then 10 seconds later, I blacked out in realization XD Anyways, do we know where the three exclusives are going confirmed? Ras, spidey, doc strange? Quote

IMBATMAN Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 I know the Ra's set is already listed on Lego's website, but I haven't seen anything for the Marvel ones yet. Well it isn't really listed on LEGO's site (being hidden and all), but if you play around with the US store link and fill in the appropriate information, you'll be able to access those Marvel sets, but only see the description.

I was looking at the DC sets organized by new ones, and I saw an official image of the Ra's set listed for $29.99 and arriving on August 1st. I didn't see the same for Tanker Truck Takedown or the Sanctum Sanctorum. Quote
