The helmet looks really incosistant when you put Wasp next to Antman, they are like coming from 2 completely different series. 

 

Feels like lego are intended to give us a shitty version wasp this year, then they will have plenty of rooms to improve the Wasp in Avenger4 set. 

 

If we eventually will get an updated Wasp next year, I will skip this set with no doubt.

Like what I've said. Chances are slim to get a molded wasp helm.

If we get this version of the helm, 97% if Avengers 4 will include Wasp it'll be the same. Probably a different print. Worst case scenario it will be exactly the same.

They sets will still be on shelves when avengers 4 comes out. Odds are same wasp

Brickset confirmed 2 sets in their article.

“LEGO has revealed the first of two Ant-Man and the Wasp sets, both of which will be released on the 1st of June.”

[SpiderJazz]

Not a long wait for them to confirm. 

Either brick built giantman or micro fig wasp will do then I'm happy.

I almost forgot about a micro Wasp! If they do the car chase scene as a set that would be a good place to include a nanofigure for her, although I’d rather see a set centered around Hank and Janet.

This is certainly a fascinating development. Pretty strange though that they include all of the main characters in such a small set though, leaves one wondering what might show up in a second probably bigger one.

Interestingly enough, if you read the descriptions clearly.

This set will contain a gold colored trophy, but looking at the pics, I can't find any.

Does lego considers calling the statuettes, trophy? It could be Wasp microfig!

They'll throw an important character in that set, or probably a secret character that will pop up in the movie, anything that will draw our money. Hank Pym/Janette civillian clothes. LUIS is welcome too! lol.

So there’s a Bucky fig on instagram, very poor quality pic.

Does it match the one in the poster? 

[ToaDraco]

I dig this set. I can live with how they did Wasp. The Quantum Realm ship is a bizarre interesting design and it's nice to get the 3 main characters in a cheap set. I'm pleasantly surprised to hear about a second set, fingers crossed it contains Goliath.

Found it and it’s fake. Uses the Series 13 astronaut’s legs for a start.

Found image and is fake, updating

What account did you see it on?

[Ultron]

I still can’t believe they’re passing this garbage fig off as official. Wasp has SUCH a sweet costume and this is how they represent it...feels like a huge slap to the face seeing these official images. The designer had to know this wouldnt go over well.

Can you point us in the direction? Or describe it? 

I think i found it, the account is Legoleaks._.alex, i don't think it is real, looks nothing like the poster version and seems to use the mercenary torso from the new jw line

Yeah it’s fake for sure, uses a number of older pieces

Saw it. Definitely fake. 

 

That's why I asked if it matches the one that lego post in their 10 years celebration.

[Agent Kallus]

I'll bring the pictures here.

Okay, so does this mean we're getting classic Wasp and Antman in the other set?  Also, does this mean that mythical 7th set is actually an Antman set?

[Scarilian]

Quantum Realm vehicle is interesting, as others have mentioned unsure why they did not repurpose the 'gyroscope' element for this set - will be interesting to see someone modify this set with that. Build kinds of makes me want a Rock Raiders 'Rapid Rider' revamp - which i expect is what i'll do with the build (removing the window elements from the front and repurposing the 'landing gear' on the side to make it look more industrial.

• Ant-Man has some updates, but is not a figure i'll be rushing after as we'll likely see this figure re-used for Infinity War's sequel
• Wasp kind of sucks, the helmet contrasts terribly with the style of Ant-Man, needed leg print
• Ghost looks 'ok' - lack of leg printing is frustrating but the double-sided head (or replacement head) is welcomed

Overall, build looks good while the figures are underwhelming. I expect the next set would include Janet Van Dyne's Wasp, Goliath and probably Ant-Man again.

I still expect we'll get an additional set based on Infinity War - the additional Civil War set was revealed around the middle of May and released in August so given the Ant-Man sets are being released on June 1st we still have time for a potential additional set based around Infinity War, if one exists, to be revealed.

2 sets is a very pleasant surprise.

The second set will most likely have a brick built Goliath as he is one of the movie’s villains I’ve heard.

[Nova - The Human Rocket]

I reckon set number 2 will:

- Be £45/£50

- Include 6 figs

- Any of these: Wasp, Old Ant-man, Old Wasp, Luis, Goliath, Taskmaster / Giant Man, Micro Wasp

- Either be an unknown scene, the city chase or the boat escape

Just a few little predictions

Taskmaster is not in the movie...

[DrasticPlastic]

2 out of 3 figs have plain legs...

...what ‘style’ is lego going for here? 

[saysonder]

The set looks fine. The build isn’t anything too impressive, but the figs are nice. Glad Ant-Man gets a new head, and I have no problems with Ghost. Seeing Wasp side by side with Ant Man doesn’t bug (lol) me as much as it should. I’m glad the helmets are at least proportional. The biggest issue I see is that her eyes aren’t visible through the helmet like Scott’s are. I’d say I’m more upset she doesn’t get leg or arm printing. It’s frustrating how Lego picks and chooses who gets leg printing and who doesn’t. If we’re lucky, Ayesha’s legs might look decent on her.

For the second set, I’m willing to bet it won’t have Wasp as a minifigure. If we were getting two of her, then a new mold probably would’ve been made. I’m crossing my fingers for a micro Wasp that looks like the trophy piece with wings. That would at least make up for skimping on details for her actual figure.
