New here! Long time lurker!

Any chance this magical wal-mart is in the Greater Toronto Area? I've noticed a few sets pop up at Masterminds and Wal-Marts around my area, wondering if its the same one I went to earlier and saw the tags out for.

Welcome,

Sorry believe it or not, this magical walmart is in nova Scotia ;)

Better pics of Chris Pratt's (Owen) minifigure from Jurassic World showing the new face print! 

Perfect to use with GoTG2 / Infinity War Starlord minifigure.

This makes me wounder why Lego didn't use new print for Starlord. To save a few $ like reusing old Thanos mold?

That set has new Thanos (old mold) new Gamora and new Ironman (MK50)

Reusing Starlord is okay, I think design of Owen having the moustache and sideburns is spot on for the movie but not for GoTG v2

Have piece counts been released for the Infinity War sets yet? Also does anyone think these sets will be shown at New York Toy Fair?

No piece counts. Also, they will be shown at New York Toy Fair for 99%

I think there was a piece count thrown around for the Sanctum Sanctorum, I think 1,004.

It seems like all of the guardians have the same costumes as they did in Vol.2, even Nebula, so it makes sense that they would only update Gamora as her mini figure from that series did not have the coat.

Also her GoTG 2 minifigure looked completely inaccurate to the characters appearance in the movie. Just saying

...how? It was exactly what she was wearing at the start and end of the movie. Maybe it’s not accurate for the casual scenes in the movie but it’s still plenty accurate to outfits she wore.

Unless I’m mistaken, Star Lord has a new outfit too, but from a glance it isn’t that different. It’s still a red coat, so I can excuse reusing his old design. 

I just really wish TLG would update Gamora’s hair. The Aquaman/Lobo hairpiece would be 100x better than the boring one she has now.

Stardlord is a repeat. Same red coat from GoTG 2

UCS Hulkbuster actual model image is up in usual places. It looks like the legs build are "okay" to me, compare than the box art.

Yeah, I mentioned all the piece counts a ways back.

It's there. Dig it.

Found it. Legs look better but the hips look very skinny and just kind of odd. It still mystifies me why the legs can’t move forwards or backwards and why the base is so much more detailed than it needs to be. It’s looking better though and more worth the price. 

[Scarilian]

Somehow it looks worse than the box art

The build is so tall and thin that it looks nothing like the Hulkbuster proportionally; Legs, body and arms are all the same length. For a Hulkbuster the legs and arms should be longer than the body (as shown above) Leg design is at least something resembling the inspiration and you can tell they tried with the chest at some point, but it's so tall and thin and unfinished - the more i look at it, the more i'm seeing the exposed segments of the inner build which should be covered (most notably the gray areas on the arms, and near the crotch, along with the unnecessary gray areas on the side of the legs) The arms desperately needed shoulder pads and without them it looks like they are just slapped onto the build.

Hopefully the promotion is good and the price cheap...

Whait..where we get the price 160,- for Hulkbuster? On that page (do not remember which was it) was 160,- for 76106 set and for 76105 was only 50,- which has Hulkbuster on his box...

[Bricky Dee Williams]

Too much overhang from the helmet dome. Maybe it’s the way they’ve positioned it, but hangs right over the pectoral plates. I like the rest of it though. The gold looks very good except for the stickered shoulders; in my opinion, those clasps should have been brick built rather than “detailed.”

I really like the legs. The rest looks mediocre, too much like other Lego mechs. I really hope this is closer to $125.
