That's gonna be so dang weird. Hahahaha. I wouldn't take it even if it's for free. Dorky and goofy than bootleg.

Even though it's just a videogame exclusive character/figure, LEGO Mr Incredible had an interesting idea for bigger figs

gedren_y Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 For some Marvel characters, being a bigfig would make them too big. The Thing, Korg, and Kingpin would be better at the scale of Leatherhead and Axl.

BigHobbit Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) @1414falconfan has art showing how a Kingpin bigfig might look. Edited March 18, 2021 by BigHobbit
Scarilian Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) I kinda expect Thanos' big fig to be like this design. This would enable them to re-use the same body mold for future big figs with only the head being a brand new mold - so we could get figures like Kurse, Hulk, Abomination, Red Hulk, etc... all much easier Also means you could give big figs capes, potentially armour ontop of them if needed, etc...

That’s why I asked for that design to be made by skor. Overall Thanos will introduce a new wave of big figs

From what I understand, the Daredevil and Punisher rights have recently returned to Marvel, and Charlie Cox is confirmed for NWH, so Netflix Marvel characters may eventually get minifigs. I also don't think we'll see a bigfig in the D2C simply because the build type precludes the interior space for one.

I could see using a regular minifigure head connection working if the head used was a new mold that's larger than normal minifigure heads. Think the Mickey Mouse figure's head size.

Even if the head connection port on the body is not compatible with minifigure heads, should still open up a lot of options.
ApocSlay Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 12 hours ago, Lego-Freak said: As far as I recall, none of the SDCC sets (or other convention exclusives for that matter) have ever leaked beforehand. Each time, we only learned about them the day they were revealed, which was usually shortly before the convention itself. Besides, we don’t know if there’s even going to be exclusives this year to begin with. Sure, there were the usual exclusives last year, but they were already in (pre-) production when Covid hit the scene, which is why they had to sell them on s@h instead. I doubt they’re doing that again this year That's why I'm curious. It was a huge relief being able to buy at least some of the sets last year without needing to fork out stupid sums of money. Hoping personally that there aren't any such exclusives this year seeing its is cancelled. Need every cent I can save with the amount of sets we are already getting

Also comic kingpin 1000% would only work as a bigfig
spiderfan2000 Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 If LEGO decides to do a set or two based on Thor: The Dark World (especially because LEGO skipped making sets for it in 2013), I hope this new bigfig system increases the chances of getting a bigfig Kurse.

Instagram is best bet, try searching 'LegoShangChi or LegoLeaks or Legoleaks2021 or some variation of the hashtag. The polybag leaked a while ago so it might be buried under all the recent posts Thanks so much! 🙏🙏🙏
JaHawk2009 Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 When I imagine a bigfig Kingpin, I just picture Into The Spider-Verse
cosmic Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 (edited) This new removable head mould would make recreating Thanos’s decapitation much easier. I actually just commented a few days ago in the DC thread how I want a multipurpose big fig torso. My only wish was that the torso would have new pegs to attach legs pieces to give the big fig more motion, in the same way they currently have arm pegs. Thats all I want is big figs that aren’t stuck in the same pose, imagine being able to pose the legs of Thanos! This is a good start though. Edited March 19, 2021 by cosmic

lego_guyon02 Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 First episode of TFATWS was amazing, not a lot of set potential in this one though.
