D2Cs get big press releases, with few exceptions. And we wouldn’t see the seventh set as the movie isn’t out (risk of spoilers). They’ll likely just display the initial wave of six (as they have yet to officially reveal those). Quote
jtslimshady Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Where are people finding the pics of the potential Hawkeye/Ronin figure? He's my favorite avenger, so I hope they do him justice this time. Apart from Civil War the other figs were lackluster. Quote
HyperOnion Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 So, some thoughts on the Infinity War sets. Everyone else has gone into more depth on most of it already, and I mostly agree with the general consensus, so just gonna skim through some stuff. 1) Gonna get the Sanctum, Hulkbuster, and the Battle Pack (which... build there is meh, but a set like that it'd be about the same price to buy it as to bricklink the figures, so no reason not to) 2) I am 100% gonna turn that Sanctum set into a full modular building. I'm pretty much done with modding my Avenger's Tower, so I'm excited to have a new building project. And hell, probably turn the other side of it into a modular apartment building too. Fortunately, the official set is AMAZING and it looks like it's mostly a matter of expanding out the sides and figuring out the back. Think I'm gonna move my storage room from my Avengers Tower into the interior of that, maybe turn that space into a training room or something... 3) I'm excited we're getting a Battle Pack-ish set, since that's something I really wish we got more of in the Marvel Superheroes theme. I wish it could be more pure Battle Pack and not have any named characters (maybe two Outriders and two Dora Milaje, or a Dora and a Wakandan soldier?), but I get that we're probably never going to get that in this theme. Do like that they're making up for keeping Black Widow exclusive to the most expensive sets in the first two Avengers waves by putting her in the cheapest set again. 4) Do we know which minifigs are for sure repeats? Bruce Banner, and it looks like Rocket, Star Lord, Black Panther and Vision? All of which I'm okay with being repeats. Or, would be in a regular wave, and in this one I wish were given to one of the 40-odd characters that are somehow in the movie that we're missing... 5) Overall, SUPER happy with this wave. Given a side glance over at the DC winter wave and am a little jelous we're not getting any comic sets in the near future, but gotdamn is this a great line. Quote
NXS7 Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 After a month of searchings, I've finally found my first Black Panther set in the UK (Panther & Rhino vs Jaguar). Where was this set? Sainsburys. Thank the Man Upstairs for you Sainsburys Quote

NXS7 Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) Alright so I really love all the figures (I thought Okoye was going to be in orange, turns out its orange-brown), the Rhino is pretty cool, also like the cart. Not really a fan of the cart track though, its kind of messy and really short. Like its actually pretty useless really, maybe unless your 7 and enjoy pushing a cart along an 8cm line. Im probably gonna deconstruct it for the extra Vibranium Edited January 18, 2018 by Quicksilver838 Quote

Im probably gonna deconstruct it for the extra Vibranium I’m waiting for the long light gray tracks from the new City mine to hit BrickLink so I can expand my track with curves and stuff. The one in the set really is way too short. Quote
Ultron Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) It's a shame that after 3 years they still refuse to update correct Vision's eyes. Just kind of waiting for a comic version at this point. Edited January 18, 2018 by Ultron Quote

Well, I mean, he doesn't have purple eyes. It was excusable during the first appearance since it's based on concept art, but they went to the trouble of updating his stone color so I don't understand the laziness behind not easily changing the eyes at the same time.

doclord Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Why are people calling the Outrider set a Battlepack when only half the figures are army builders? Quote

SpiderJazz Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Because 4 figs for small set is good to get, nowadays. Just to share, I remember Brickshow describing it with only 3 figs they said, but I saw this pics ahead of them, some people questioning my accuracy. I'm happy that atleast it has 2 outriders for an easy army build. Quote

It’s the cheapest way to get Outriders and they’re easy to army build with this pack, especially since you can sell off your extra Black Widow and Nomad figures and maybe make a few bucks back. Quote

Plus, the Superheroes line has never gotten a pure battle pack--closest we got was the Ultron one, and that still had an Iron Man in it. I suspect we never will, since the genre is more geared towards conflicts between small groups of named characters, instead of large armies like in Star Wars... Quote
SpiderJazz Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Like her minifig, Gamora's Brickheadz is beautiful. I'll try to send picture of the pamphlet to Mario or any other IG pages for you guys to see. I think I can also give some news about the D2C soon. Keep in touch. Quote

And I’m even more glad to hear that! I’ll definitely be keeping my ear to the ground! Quote
SpiderJazz Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 I sent it to Mario, but if you're following me in IG. You'll see the new images. Quote
GoldenNinja3000 Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 I love that Gamora! I loved the build for her hair and the new prints look awesome. Great BrickHeadz for this theme. I’m definitely getting all of them. Quote

Actually, mk50 minifig has design on it's wings even if it's just stickers but for the Brickheadz it doesn't have any printing at all. Btw, did you see the pics on my IG? Quote
SpiderJazz Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 New pic is up, gauntlet together with 4 stones ( Mind, Reality, Space, Power ) mounted in it. Lovely! Quote
