I think a brick built model of him would certainly fit in that price range, along with several figs and maybe an additional small build or 2. Since I already have the Milano, I'd much, much rather have that than a new Milano. He has a human form in the movie, and I doubt it would be an accurate build unless it cost like $150. I think it'll be a new Milano as the new one in the movie has a slightly different design, and the old one has been retired so kids will buy a new one. Picked up Iron Man vs. Thanos today- pretty excited to build it! Thanos's car looks amazing and has a bunch of new and cool parts so that's exciting. Quote
GoldenNinja3000 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Not a huge fan of the new Iron Man helmet, but maybe it'll grow on me. There's a pamphlet advertising all the new Marvel sets, but no release date is listed. This set is great for extras- you get an extra Infinity Gem of each type! Quote

I don't see how they could portray Ego, a giant floating planet with a face, accurately in a set this small unless it was two giant molds that lock together. Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 That's actually Ayesha! James Gunn just confirmed on Twitter that a Funko Pint-Sized Heroes figure that looked just like that is actually Ayesha and not Kismet! (source) Quote

Gunn has stated he'll have multiple forms(ntm he's taken a number of forms in the comics including a humanoid avatar) and the whole reason he included him in the movie is because he wanted the absurdity of a living planet. That price range is way too low for a proper Milano, it would certainly be smaller and less detailed than the last one and that doesn't mesh with the way lego has progressed in recent years in terms of general set design. 3 hours ago, Ultron said: I don't see how they could portray Ego, a giant floating planet with a face, accurately in a set this small unless it was two giant molds that lock together. They could very easily, have you ever seen a lego shere or make one yourself?(legitimate question, not trying to sound antagonistic) It can be done very easily at many sizes. I don't expect a massive ball of lego, more like something with a 10-15 stud diameter and some shaping and printed pieces for the face. The Ayesha fig looks good but it's not exactly what I was expecting from her costume design. Why is she wearing a full body blue jumpsuit? That just doesn't seem right.

GoldenNinja3000 Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 Kamala Khan's arms appear to be used in the DC Super Hero Girls Bumblebee's Helicopter set in yellow. It's a long flex tube that gets thicker at the ends and ends in a clip, so I'm fairly sure it's the same part. Interesting reuse of it; I didn't think they'd find a way to incorporate it anywhere else. Quote
Legocity2713 Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 ^ Looking at Brickset's review of the set I think you're right. Very good to know. Also, just looking at some other photos of Kamala, if you get an extra torso and cut the two ends the middle should slide right out and you'll be able to pop in the normal arms people want for a regular figure of her. Hoping for two torsos in my set when I get it one day for this very reason. Quote

I still don't think they'll do it though. Kismet's suit would be good for a custom Zero Suit Samus. Quote

Hoping for two torsos in my set when I get it one day for this very reason. I strongly suspect it won't be possible without further modification. The photos I've seen make it look like the internal diameter of her torso's... cylinder? tube? is smooth, in order to facilitate easier sliding of the noodle arm piece; if it's smooth, then there would be nowhere for the "arm joint" part of the standard minifigure arm piece to expand out to after it's been compressed. If that's the case, then trying to insert an arm would be like putting a technic pin inside a 1x1 cylinder brick; it would kind of work, but there'd be too much friction and the parts would be damaged. However, I'm hoping to high heaven I'm wrong on this. Quote
BrickG Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 I really hope when they do more Iron Mans for future movie sets they go back to the non-terrible kiddified helmets. Quote

NXS7 Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 Just bought the Adaptoid set and the Detroit Steel set, about to build them, but can confirm that Ms Marvel only has one torso Quote

The helmet's only like that now for the suit that they're doing. It doesn't have the rising faceplate like the traditional Iron Man, just a flatter face like the new helmet. They're including it in the Mighty Micros set because its easier to print on and make look cartoony, and they're using it on the Adaptoid to get as much usage out of the mold as they can. The old Iron Man helmet isn't dead, it's just not useful in this year's sets. 1 hour ago, Quicksilver838 said: Just bought the Adaptoid set and the Detroit Steel set, about to build them, but can confirm that Ms Marvel only has one torso Quote

GeekByKnight Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 So do we have any solid Guardians info beside names? Im wondering if I should grab the Escape From Nowhere set to get Nebula or wait for the new sets and get her in those. Quote

It's the only way to get orange Rocket and a full size Groot. Quote

Legocity2713 Posted January 12, 2017 Posted January 12, 2017 All Iron Man suits up until 2017. A little bit of a random post but I thought it would be cool to see. I myself have 11/17 armors (Including the Hulkbuster but excluding Tony Stark in the total - I made my own purist fig of him though) Quote
Ashnflash Posted January 12, 2017 Posted January 12, 2017 So so happy there isn't another Milano....... Quote
