Marvel Superheroes 2018 - Set Discussion

No, but if there is a final 7th set. I could see that being it with Scarlet Witch, War Machine, Bucky, and hopefully an updated Thanos big fig. Maybe add some scenery. But that’s purely speculation. 

I would love to see an accurate Thanos bigfig but I think a Wong minifigure is much more likely - because the latter does not require new molds or parts. I'm just very skeptical that LEGO would bother with the new mold when they didn't before. I would personally rather see Wong or even a Drax or Mantis repack than a repeat of anybody in the first wave. The lack of White Wolf and Scarlet Witch is pretty jarring though, imo

Given there are no MCU films coming out between July and March, LEGO will have a big hole in the fall/winter schedule and that might be a good time to do some new MCU sets or comic-inspired sets, which usually take some inspiration from what's going on in the films anyway.

Is there a set with that Wakanda vehicle Cap and co take with Black Panther?

Totally forgot about that vehicle. It would be perfect for a final set with Scarlet Witch, War Machine, and new Bucky. How will we get Wong then...?

I’m also curious about the seventh set rumor. Was it ever 100% confirmed? Or was the set going to be either Infinity War or Ant-Man and it ended up being Ant-Man? 

It was never 100% confirmed.

That would be great, honestly, wong should have 100% been in the sanctum set, its not like big sets can only have 5 figures

 

A perfect last set could be new bucky, wanda, war machine, m'baku and a couple outriders and one of those carriers, hopefully different enough from the royal talon fighter set

Right, but J2G never been wrong with this kind of information and there's still a missing set number with those Infinity War sets. So crossfingers*

Wong should have been included in SSS. I can also see him being in a promotional polybag if it's really necessary.

Looking at Lego's track record with side characters, I bet we won't get Wong until Doctor Strange 2, unless he has some huge role in Avengers 4. Look at how long it took to get Falcon. They really should have put him in the Sanctum set, I wonder why he was excluded.

Also on the topic of sets that should have had more minifigs, Drax and/or Mantis could've been in Thanos Ultimate Battle. Especially Mantis, considering Ravager Attack is getting kind of hard to find now.

If we have to wait that long, I wonder why even include him in the poster for the ten years anniversary. I’m guessing either he’s inaccurately included in the final set, which is almost certainly the Wakandan transport with Scarlet Witch, War Machine, White Wolf, etc, or he will show up as some sort of polybag freebie like the pervious Avengers movies have had a minifig Hulk and Guardians 1 had Ravager Rocket.

[SpiderJazz]

Wong is not that special for me, so it's alright if the 7th set won't include him. Bucky and Warma are the characters that is necessary, Wanda wears the same outfit (atleast in my opinion) when the Wakandan battle take place so I don't think we will be having a new fig of her. I must say Hulk can also be included because of some merchandize doing it. Funko and other toy lines did that.

[Ultron]

Wanda has different colored hair, so they might at least give us a recolor. Her costume is also more of a trench coat in IW as compared to her Civil War costume. I'm shocked they didn't put her in a set though, or even a funko. She's got a substantial role, more so than many of the characters we got. We didn't even get Gamora either. Huge shame.

Gamora? She's included in Benatar set. Or you trying to say Nebula?

[Fenghuang0296]

Well, having seen the movie (no major spoilers, just discussion of what they might mean for a potential seventh set.) . .

Spoiler

Nebula didn't have much of a role in the movie, so it's understandable that they'd leave her out. Especially since she was in a set just last year. 

Wanda had a much bigger role, so it does surprise me that she wasn't anywhere. And she hasn't been around since 2016. So it's weird that's she wasn't anywhere . . if there is a seventh set, she'll almost definitely be in it. 

Not to mention Winter Soldier - ahem, White Wolf. XD I would have loved to see a version of him with his new arm. 

A set with a second Thanos and Infinity Gauntlet, hopefully cheaper, would be excellent too. So here's hoping. 

Also, the Thresher, in that Corvus Glaive set? That model does not do that thing justice. I wish it had been bigger. ^^

I find it likely that, if we get a 7th set, it will not include Wong, and that he was just created for the poster alone. The build would probably be the troop transport that showed up for, like, 5 seconds (hopefully that's not a spoiler, they were in the trailers) or the Q ship, which I hope they do as it showed up for more than 5 seconds. The figures will likely be a new War Machine, a new Bucky, maybe a new Vision, a repeat Scarlet Witch, and a new Thanos, maybe with a new open hand Gauntlet instead of a fist like before.

Oops, yeah I meant Nebula. Gamora is one of the best figs of IW.

I think this is most likely. I’d like some wong but it probably isn’t happening.

Amazing how this is the first piece of advertising to feature him 

Its his Civil War figure, the sleevelessness is part of the design of the costume

There's no chance we won't get Bucky in the last set.

If we don’t get a 7th set, there is. I really hope we get one but there’s no confirmation of one. We know about the Ant-Man and Wasp but still haven’t heard anything else so chances are starting to get slim for a 7th set. 

[Falconfan1414]

Ok so for this 7th set, there is evidence pointing towards both the possibility of it being real and the possibility of it being fake

for why it could be real: there is a set  number missing that the set could fill, the poster (we have gotten versions of everyone else on the poster except for Wong, Bucky, and war machine so that could hint at a set), with the antman and the wasp set being a Walmart exclusive they could pull they same thing like civil war and doctor strange and give us a target infinity war exclusive, also very reliable people think it is coming

for why it could be fake: people could have assumed that ant man and the wasp would follow suit like the previous marvel movies and do 2 Sets not one. So when they found out there would be an exclusive set they assumed it would be for infinity war

[THELEGOBATMAN]

I really want 7th Infinity War set. There are a lot of possibilites, Asgard set, another Wakanda set or probably another Titan set. Or maybe even a Knowhere set.

[LegoLord54]

When are we aloud to talk spoilers?

 

Also I don’t know if this would be classed as off topic or not as it won’t be out for along while but I can’t wait for captain marvel sets I really hope we get a new nick fury and a korath and I doubt we would but I hope we get Ronan’s Kree ship aswell.

The films not even been out a week, it'll be a while until the spoiler ban is lifted. Or as Cap Nemo instructed, you can go to the MCU thread and talk spoilers there, set wish listing included

[zoth33]

I really hope there is a 7th set.  I think all the sets are nice.  The infinity stones are cool.  My kids have all the sets.  They did a nice job with all the figs too.

I hope we get some comic based sets in January to accompany the one or two Captain Marvel sets I hope are coming. 

Regarding a possible seventh IW set: if it’s set in Wakanda, Scarlet Witch needs to be included. She had a much larger role than many of the other figures we’ve already gotten and hasn’t been available for two years.

Minifigures were... meh. Actually great ones were Spidey, Iron Man, Gamora, Strange and Ebony. Others were mostly nice, and rest were bad, or really bad.
