lego_guyon02 Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 With Viking Thor being reused in the Benatar I'm confident the rest of the Guardians, except maybe Groot, will all be updated. Otherwise I really don't see how LEGO could see that set selling well with it's $150 pricetag.

At $150, the set should be detailed enough to sell well on its own If a UCS Star Destroyer can be sold at $700 with 2 less than spectacular minifigs, a $150 Benatar with most of the crew included should do fine

admiral_typhoon Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) I mean now that you mentioned it, that would work really well with the NA set watch as the secondhand value of it rises because of this.

I think the topless would be funny too, but in the end I'm mainly focused on the head, beard and hairpiece. Hopefully at least the beard and hairpiece will be different from the Endgame Final Battle set. Regards, Mitch It should be different, I think that's the main goal of TLG having two Thor/s for this wave. Lebowski Thor could just use (series 12) Shipwreck Survivor head and beard piece, I can see it happening. 58 minutes ago, Guyon2002 said: With Viking Thor being reused in the Benatar I'm confident the rest of the Guardians, except maybe Groot, will all be updated.

It's a 150€ Guardians of The Galaxy ship with 1900 pieces and a UCS stand - people who buy this set are either Lego / Marvel collectors, so they'll buy it anyway, or people who want to display a gigantic Lego Marvel ship, so they'll also buy it anyway.

Agreed. Endgame Final Battle is the set that "everyone" will buy, Benatar is just a bonus for AFOLs.

Speaking of the Endgame final battle set, does anyone expect an updated MK 85 armour or just a repeat of last year's fig Asides that I'm hyped to get the Captain America fig in that set since it's highly likely that it's the scales suit with the new helmet mold. Asides that only Thor, Thanos and Black Panther interest me because of new printing and the new helmet mold for BP. MCU Wanda's suits pre Wandavision have been bland red civilian clothes so I could care less about her fig
josh_a_123 Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 tbh now that they are going back to older films (hopefully for years to come) a Lego Asgard will hopefully be made

I'd rather get a new mould for Mjölnir. The one we have is SO underdetailed - no details on the metal itself, no strap, no brown handle etc. For Stormbreaker you could make a really clever build, I've seen multiple ones that look as good as it can get.

Yeah, the Endgame MK 85 we had in 2019 wasn't bad but the plain gold arms made him look like he was in a metal tank top and it just looked weird.

I'm so glad someone has brought this up, Mjonir needs a redesign. I don't care if there's no strap but the whole hammer being grey since 2012 has been a bummer. A new one with brown handle would suffice. Whether or not the extra details are there, I wouldn't care but the hammer handle is in dire need of a recolor
SpiderJazz Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 2 years ago, TLG made the biggest disappointment for Lego Marvel, now they are redeeming theirselves. I just want to share some of my custom minifigures. Mainly the OG6 Endgame version. All of them (minus official Hulk) are PhoenixCustom Bricks and was released in limited quantities. I'm happy that we are finally getting MCU Trinity in their Endgame costume. While accuracy and detail wise Lego couldn't keep up with this figures, official still means alot to me.

That MK 85 and Endgame Thor look so good😳😳 The custom MK 85 is proof that it needs some sort of arm printing to work. If not at least have one half of the arm be colored yellow and the other red with no printing if they wanna go the safe route Edited March 18, 2021 by MCU Spidey 2017

My earlier (pre-leaks) guess is that they would've made it for the CMF to redeem themselves by giving us detailed endgame figures in it, but now considering the amount of stuff and new moulds we're getting, I doubt it.
josh_a_123 Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 I just hope they don't give us their normal Stormbreaker cos it's way too small

Completely agree. Its actually just the same hammer mould lego has used in Monster Fighters and other themes. Its not a Mjolnir mould but a general hammer mould reused for Mjolnir. The brown base, the string at the bottom, the detailing around the entire thing, Mjolnir should have its own mould. Hoping if they give us classic Thor in the CMF series he comes with a new mjolner mould. Edited March 18, 2021 by cosmic
Portal Out Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 Here's a question for you guys: do you think Promobricks made a mistake with the minifigs on the Benetar and confused Drax for a Chitauri? They're both grey, bald figures with a bunch of printing, and its obviously super weird that Lego would shoehorn a villain character into a UCS set and leave out a main character who hasn't been printed in 4 years.
