While we've never gotten uncle Ben before (which is honestly kinda crazy) I don't think he should be included in the Daily Bugle. As far as civilians go I think it would be preferable to get characters like MJ, Gwen and people that actually work at the Bugle like the previously suggested Robbie Robertson, Betty Brant, Ben Urich and so on. 8 minutes ago, SpiderJazz said: What if we get Stan Lee? Not sure if I'm just misremembering things but wasn't there some talk here a while back that LEGO would need to pay extra royalties to use Stan Lee's likeness? If so I doubt he'll be included, although it would be fantastic to finally get him.

He should be a big fig and there looks like there are not big figs in the set Brrrr Lizard as a bigfig. Horrifying. For me, the only lizard would be a minifig lizard. It’s just Dr. Connors who becomes lizardlike, not a lizard and a giant. I understand that when portrayed bigger he looks more ferocious and dangerous, but bigfigstyle just won’t work for me. Bigfig Kingpin and Rhino however look good (i have them as knockoffs) 8 minutes ago, Donkeypunch said: Big wheel or nothing Big Wheel, Walrus, Spot, White Rabbit, LeapFrog, Kangaroo and Red Ghost (with minifig slots wasting on his apes) or nothing!
Leggomyleggo Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 7 hours ago, spiderfan2000 said: I'm pretty sure Falconfan made a story post that said "SINISTER SIX", which was presumably meant to indicate their inclusion in the D2C. His story posts also indicated Mysterio's inclusion, which would make sense with a Sinister Six lineup. I still think Kingpin has a decent chance of appearing as either a minifigure or a Hagrid sized figure, considering he prominently counts as a Spider-Man villain, a Daredevil villain, and a Punisher villain, so his absence in a set with all three of those characters would be very odd. So this will be LEGO's Sinister Six considering the lineup will definitely be inspired by different variations of the team, you know, having Venom but no Electro who is always part of the team. I like many am holding out hope for a Kingpin because this would be the perfect opportunity but if not then I will be content with Bullseye.
Stonks Market Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 How do the likes of Falcon get this information without knowing the whole set?

We don’t often get minifigs of characters that die this early in the story though Especially in this case, since Ben is one of the few comic book characters who always have the grim reaper on their trail, no matter what continuity or parallel universe they’re in

Hmmm he probably knows the info, he isn't one of attention seeker leaker which do come and go, he knows how to play the game with his hints and clue. Or even if he doesn't know. He has sources for this who also gave information to him from time to time. For what it is, I think we should trust the guy.

upliftingbricks Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 Im curious, why do people want civilians in the Daily Bugle set? Unless theres a certain look/print thats needed e.g. JJJ moustache a lot of civvies can be created purist and more superheroes/villains could take up the minifigure spaces? Even Kingpin as a minifig prob wouldnt be that exciting as its a guy in a suit. Just wondering as Id prefer the spaces to be taken up by heroes/villains we havent got and cant create easily purist.

I've been wishing for Lego to do Spider-Man Unlimited, mainly for Spidey himself, but if they did, Venom and Carnage would have to be bigfigs. 3 hours ago, Guyon2002 said: Not sure if I'm just misremembering things but wasn't there some talk here a while back that LEGO would need to pay extra royalties to use Stan Lee's likeness? If so I doubt he'll be included, although it would be fantastic to finally get him. I think Marvel itself has enough rights to Stan Lee's image for a minifig to be created. His likeness was used as "Stan Lee creator of Spider-Man" at the end of the Madame Web storyline in the 90s TV show. His likeness was used in the comics for decades as part of the Stan Lee's Soap Box section in the back of many Marvel titles. In any event there is a Daily Bugle employee named Lee Kirby, an amalgamation of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby (remember him?), who was created to honor both men. Edited April 7, 2021 by gedren_y
