I like the vehicle a lot. Ghost looks fine to me, Ant-Man is okay I guess (still wish they'd fix the open mouth), but Wasp is just sad. I forgave the Iron Man helmet reuse multiple times already because it fit in those situations. This should have been a new mold. And considering there weren't many new molds for IW either (of the top of my head, only Cull Obsidian's bigfig and Proxima Midnight's hair), Lego could have done at least one new mold for her. They could even reuse it in Avengers 4 sets.

Infinity War got a decent amount of new molds. We got the Outrider/Mark 50/Iron Spider neck bracket, the Infinity Stone mold, Groot’s head, Proxima Midnight’s hair, the Infinity Gauntlet, and Cull Obsidian’s body. I understand why they didn’t make a new mold for this set but I would’ve liked to see at least one correct helmet. The thing that annoys me the most about the Wasp figure is that her visor isn’t transparent since it’s just printed and we can’t see her eyes.

Wooohooo i’ll buy it! I really love the ship. All that greebling (using rollerskates and such). Neat!

Ghost looks good enough. Janet wil get some brown hair (maybe mrs incredible her new hair?) to make it more comic and i already have antman. 

Good job lego!

That set screams all kinds of cool. I wonder if this vehicle will appear in Avengers 4 next year?

The MCU's current Wasp and the one that's in the set is Hope Van Dyne. I don't think that hair is gonna work just use the ordinary ponytail hair.

Well, considering how IF ended, I'm thinking they're gonna need some way of getting into a much smaller dimension...

Hope basically has her mom's hairstyle in the first Antman. It's not a stretch to use it. And you could always just pretend this Wasp is Janet anyway.

You're not wrong.

I would love to see an accurate Thanos bigfig

As would I.  A fully armored bigfig with a lot of printing / molding (like Hulk's arm from Ragnarok).  It would certainly be worth it.  I am not a fan at all of the Infinity War version of Thanos, especially now having seen the movie.  I really hope for a better one later.

Something like this custom, but maybe better molding:



As for the Ant Man and the Wasp set, I love it and will definitely be getting one.

Added image of custom bigfig to help illustrate my point.

On Paul_Seeley4 account on Instagram there is some info on second set (7 hours left from now). It is probably speculation, but he is a leaker, so nothing is sure. Info he posted:

"Second set   A van with a giant 1x1   figs are:   wasp microfig, luis, antman and throw some new fig like. Hank/Janet or Goliath".

I think it's just speculation, but I just wanted to post it here because he doesn't mention any speculation.

We are getting one set for the movie. Set number 76109 retailing for $20 and it’s an antman vehicle and in the United States a Walmart exclusive.

What do you mean? No one had any idea we were getting a second set for antman and the wasp until Lego and brickset confirmed it. The post on instagram was speculation I know that for sure

You seemed pretty confident that we were only getting one Ant-Man set, and that it would be a Walmart exclusive. Neither of those things seems to be true. So when you ask us to "trust you..."

[SpiderJazz]

Lol. Give it a rest guys.

@Falconfan1414 is right, we know where the info came. And it's just a speculation.

End of discussion. 

[Ultron]

If we get Luis and not an updated Hank or a Janet fig I’ll be so mad. 

[Wonkyeye1]

Is it possible the second set is actually a Brickheadz dual pack? That would be a disappointment, but I could see it happening.

I don’t think so. Tons of upcoming BrickHeadz names and set numbers have been leaked for the sets coming out over the next few months and I believe that the only Marvel one is a Rocket and Groot double pack.

You're right about that.

Hank and Janet has a potential than Luis. I still hope we get version of micro fig Wasp.

serious question :

 

In regarding Marvel/DC sets is it cheaper to buy the minifigures alone than the actual full sets?

Depends on the rarity or being exclusive. 

But most of the times if you're not fan of the builds. It is much better to just bricklink them. Cheaper way to get figs only.

If the set is below £30, then maybe just get the set. 3-4 figures, and if you don't like the build, you get a spare load of bricks. If it's something big like the Benetar or the Sanctum Sanctorum, spending £70-100 for 5 figures isn't worth it. It might be harder to do, but buying individual figures is the best option for the larger sets

yes thats what i was thinking.

Specially the santrum / thanos ship and the black panther set.

I definitely scrapped the tracks of the Wakandan mine, I would really prefer a bigger Indiana Jones scale mine than 6cm of track. I really only bought it for the figures (although I do think the Rhino is kinda cool now), and it was only £20 so no big lose

For the Black Panther set maybe just buy the figures. Shuri and Corvus Glaive are the only exclusives and while I love the build, many people dislike it.
