SEmrys Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Exciting stuff! This will probably be my first D2C set. The Venom inclusion is par for the course really but at least he makes sense here. He is a photographer/journalist after all.
lego_guyon02 Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Sounds great but any comic set is an instant skip for me.
AndrewCole14 Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Love the premise of a modular Daily Bugle but my interest in the set is now totally minifigure dependant. Another Venom seems like a waste.

Eddie Brock and Peter Parker in his day clothes.

However, given that he appeared in Spider-Verse, I think he's more likely to show up in a set now (interestingly Kingpin didn't receive too much merchandise when Spider-Verse came out) What puzzles me though is that we've had two Ghostriders and a Deadpool, and he has appeared in Spider-Verse, hence why I'm surprised. I do consider Hob Goblin and Ghostrider darker than Daredevil. Thinking about it, we also had Lobo in the DC range. Holding out hope...
Leggomyleggo Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 I won't get the set itself but I know that if they have a Rhino or Lizard, I will gladly purchase them on Bricklink lol
Scarilian Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 I mean, at least we have something for else for May I guess and it's good that Lego is taking risks with Marvel D2C's... but Venom again? I knew chances were slim but it's not even Raimi based and potentially not even using the Flatiron Building design due to being based on the comics where the Daily Bugle was a fairly generic building. Will need to see the set and the full range of figures, but at the moment it seems like a pass.
THELEGOBATMAN Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 This can come out as one of Marvel's best set. Saying that, not only don't I buy D2C sets, but also the fact that it's comicbook set makes it a skip for me. Don't get me wrong, I think it'll look amazing, but it's not something I'd buy. Still, cannot wait to see it.
Brick Clicker Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 If it's coming in May then we should see some minifig leaks or some sort of leaks pretty soon

THELEGOBATMAN Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Do you guys know what Daily Bugle set means tho? ANOTHER JJJ COMING.
doclord Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 If the only figure known is Venom, doesn't that mean it's a unique-looking Venom? Otherwise how would a leaked Venom be known to come from the set?
CF Mitch Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Huh, so it's the Daily Bugle after all! Fascinating. This is quite a generic location, so there minifigures coming with it could be anything. The Venom that is confirmed, do we think he'll be a repeat of the current minifigure, or a (more detailed) updated version? J. Jonah Jameson is guaranteed of course, so he'll probably be updated. Excited to see what this version will look like Kinda hoping it'll have a Symbiote Spider-Man, but that's probably a long shot. I do hope the build has nice play features and detailed interior. Regards, Mitch

Venom might be the only official confirmation, but you physically can't have Daily Bugle without J Jonah. That's literally like a Batcave with no Batman

cosmic Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) Excited because I love comic sets a little bored because I’m not sure I can expect any new characters or moulds. Edit: This would be a good time to give us Black Cat and Shocker as neither require new moulds. Fingers crossed for an updated Mary Jane Watson and possibly a Gwen Stacy figure. And for the love of god either give Black Cat the new Hermione hair in white or the She-Hulk hair in white I really don’t want that annoying hair piece they use on every female character.
