Maybe, but Zombie Cap, T'Challa Starlord and Captain Carter (The ones Falcon zoomed in on) would be a bit of an 'eh' line-up personally. Captain Carter is the only one they could probably go all-out on unless T'Challa Starlord has a different design that incorporates more of his Black Panther outfit. Zombie Cap is kinda underwhelming unless they were to use it as a method to give dual molded/printed arms or legs or something.

Captain Carter is coming in a set so they obviously wouldn't waste a CMF spot on her.

[gedren_y]

For all the interest in the figs, there is almost no discussion on potential new parts, or recolors, in the sets themselves. The Benatar should have at least some interesting parts used for the cockpit alone. Luis' van should give us something, what with that quantum realm technology in the back. We could see that new 2x2x2/3 ridged brick be used in serious numbers in The Daily Bugle.

Does anyone really want the helmet for Thanos now?  we have too many versions with the helmet, that's enough! 😆 Seriously, in order to wear a helmet it should have the pin on the head and I seem to have understood that this is not the case.

Not confirming or denying anything but it isn’t obvious they have done it before (steam boat Willie)

Also Arkham Joker in the LEGO Batman Movie (the head was different, but not sure anyone cared)

A stud you mean? I don't think anyone here have confirmed that he does not have it. Only description we got is bald. A lego minifigure without hairpiece is bald but still have a stud in it. So... 

Also there's a difference between the big figure before and now having his helmet removable means something more in the future, that way they can use the mold for any other characters that requires a headpiece or mask or helmet too.

Yes, I mean stud.  I don't speak English, I use google translator and I don't always check the translation 😅 We've seen a picture of what the new big fig model should look like, and okay, it might not mirror reality, but I don't think the stud head would work.  I believe that in the presence of a helmet, the head will be modeled with the helmet, as they always have.  Obviously they are personal opinions ...

ps.  I still believe that we will not have a double Peggy, the importance of her character in the MCU is not comparable to that of Mickey Mouse in the Disney world, not to mention that the Disney series had 18 slots... maybe I'm wrong

No problemo, Your english is good enough to understand. Are you referring about the drawing from Falconfan's instagram? 

I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but from what I know that's just his opinion on how it would look like. Nothing is confirmed yet. There has been other Big figures with removable headgears. But who knows, maybe you're right and I'm wrong, I guess we'll find out soon.

If we are getting our 'best version' of Big Fig Thanos then I'd prefer having an optional helmet. Personally the helmeted Thanos always looked more complete, especially if we are getting a depiction of his appearance in the final battle and we have not really had them replicate his newer helmet (they tend to stick to his comic/older GotG version which was more purple).

I feel it also makes sense if they are making a new big fig design for them to have the ability for whatever head they add on to feature a helmet, hair, etc... in future. This would open up a wide variety of opportunities to replicate characters. My expectation would be something similar to what knock-off figures have done in the past:

This gives a lot of benefits:

• It provides the ability for head rotation
• You'd be able to add hair, helmets or other aspects to a figures head or even swap the head if desired allowing for easy access to different faces and features
• It would allow them to cut down on new aspects, you could update the head/hair without requiring a brand new body piece or vice versa
• If you preferred a character in a minifigure scale then you could give the head to a minifigure instead

Personally I'm just hoping that if we are getting a new style of Big Fig for Thanos that Lego take the initiative and make the transition to using the minifigure heads as they have clearly experimented with the idea via Mungus and Killow... also always felt they were going that direction with Hulk but never did.

Lots of text, but yeah, hopefully the new Big Fig style is an improvement

No you didn't 

Is it that hard to admit a small thing like this? Or if you knew, why did you randomly act like it was a real minifigure?

I think he's just a troll looking at his PFP and comments.

Is the daredevil leak fake? (the one that has almost identical printing to the video game figure) I assume so, and kind of hope so given I'm hoping the figure will be dark red, but if they want to get that classic comic look I'd guess it'll be bright red.

I don't think there's going to be a better explanation than this. Again, if this is wrong I'll still gladly take that new Thanos big figure,  but if were think innovation and cutting cost then this is the way.

Lol. Yeah. From what I know there has been 3 attempts now to fake DD figure.

Yeah I mean I'm not saying it's impossible, but it just seems very unlikely. 

They reduced the count of minfigures to 12 since that series. This is also a CMF that is based on specific series, which means that they have a finite amount of spots for What If...?.

I also feel like Marvel is a much more consistent theme - if they release a set, then other sets (like CMF) also have to work with it. For Disney it was like an Ideas set and then, after deciding that there has to be Mickey and Minnie in the CMF, they decided to just include the variants they alteady had.

I guess we'll see tho, I will be seriously disappointed if it turns out I was wrong.

[BrickBob Studpants]

There‘s a far more profane reason why the Steamboat Willie minifigs were also part of the CMF series, that being the new moulds. Ideas sets being able to introduce new moulds is a very recent development, so that‘s simply how they got around that problem 

Speaking of moulds: Am I wrong to think that the Marvel CMF series might be VERY light on new ones? The only one I can think of right now is Wanda‘s hairpiece. None of the other characters we‘ve discussed so far require anything new, not even in terms of accessories

Just possible figs and their new molds, this isn't new info or confirmation of any kind: Wanda's hair, a new cover piece for the Darkhold, Monica's hair, Falcon's wings, Redwing, Karli's mask, Loki's hair (assuming it's the 'vote Loki' variant), Loki's daggers, Peggy's hair, Star-Panthers helmet, Thor's hair, Killmonger's hair and so on.

Falcon could receive a new mold for the wings, since none of the current variants would fit in the bag, hair + crown for Loki, hood for Zemo (I said that but I don't believe it either), weapons for Iron Man gladiator (you have  got it lego ??? 😁)

[SpiderJazz]

Zemo's mask, if they decided to have it wearble than multiple heads, it's going to be interesting intemrs of what accesories would be included. Wanda can have new power blast pieces? Agathan can have the dark hold probably a new cover? Red wing, and wings for Falcon, as for the other two series have to wait and see them.

[Anonknee Muss]

My interest has dipped a little bit when I found out the series is based off of the shows instead of the comics but I am glad it's the shows and not the movies. I am mostly interested in pieces now.

Agreed. Personally, I prefer comic-styled ones over TV show ones but I am kinda fine with shows, rather than MCU.

if I remember correctly, I think Daily Bugle is comic-styled?

[Scarilian]

Let's break it down, covered a lot of the main characters people expect

• Wanda needs a new Crown/Hair piece mould and is probably going to get one judging from CM4Sci's remarks
• Darkhold if it's included would probably wind up being a printed book, no new mould needed, with a tile piece showing apocaylpse Wanda - similar to this book included in the Pirates Of The Caribbean set.
• Monica would likely use this hair piece
• Quicksilver and/or Tommy would probably use this hair piece, though a new mould might be possible
• Billy would require a new mould for the hair/headband piece
• Vision/White Vision require no new moulds
• Agatha requires no new moulds
• Falcon could have a new mould for Redwing OR his wings, but it's more likely it'll wind up brickbuilt or his prior piece in a new colour scheme
• Karli would either have a dual sided face with the mask printed onto the head like Crossbones OR it'd be a new Mask/Hair piece
• Zemo would either have the mask printed with an alternate head & hair potentially included OR we'd require a new mask mould
• Bucky only requires printing, no new moulds here though potentially a new arm
• Walker's Captain America requires no new moulds
• Walker's US Agent requires no new moulds
• Hoskins requires no new moulds
• Loki needs a new Crown/Hair piece mould
• Loki's daggers, if included, could wind up being pre-existing pieces such as this , this or this. Although admittedly a new mould would be more accurate.
• Captain Carter makes the most sense to have a dual sides face with the mask printed on one side
• Captain Carter's hair might need a new mould, but admittedly can see them using this hair which was used for Sharon Carter, but in a different colour
• Steve Rodgers requires no new moulds
• Zombie Cap requires no new moulds
• Star-Panther's helmet is identical to the prior helmet we got other than colour scheme, no new mould needed
• Party Thor could potentially work with one of the prior Thor hair pieces, unless he has his coronation helmet in which case Crown or Crown/Hair piece mould
• Gladiator Iron Man might require a new mould for his shields
• Kilmonger would likely require a new hair mould
• The Watcher would likely require a new moulded head
• Howard the Duck would require a new moulded head

3 deleted (figure 1), 4x figure 2, 4x figure 1 again, and 2x photos from LMSH2 all from the same profile. Apparently despite having different designs, they are both the real one 

But ignoring the fake, talking real, I wonder how they'll do the billy club. A plain red stick would just be really boring. The new nunchuck pieces in red would be pretty sweet, even if it is a chain instead of rope

*T'Challa's hair is different to Star Lord's. Peter has rather rugged hair (as seen with his helmet mold), while T'Challa has smooth hair, looking like it would need the Bruce Wayne or Finn hair. Having the same helmet but that hair in black would look pretty inaccurate to the character, the hair is all that needs to change

*Watcher definitely would need a larger head, but many customs have used the Egghead piece for him, and I could see it being used if LEGO felt lazy. But imagine a larger LEGO head that fits on normal bodies. That piece could be used for some crazy stuff

I personally think we'll get no helmet for T'Challa's Star-Lord or we won't get a T'Challa Star-Lord at all in the CMF. I agree that T'Challa's hair is different and a new mold is necessary. I just don't see TLG making a slightly different mold. Who knows, though. I've been wrong before.

I personally want a helmet with the big fig Thanos and a stud on his head so you can put it on and take it off. I think if we're getting a representation of Endgame's final battle, then Thanos needs a helmet. I'm just hoping the no helment Thanos isn't a bad rumor like the mold for Black Panther.

[gedren_y]

People keep mentioning the helmet, but I'm hoping for removable armor. A bigfig that can properly have body wear would open up all kinds of possibilities. (The Thing in his trench coat!)

Appreciate the extra +1... may level up soon
Though yeah, can't remove the tags from qoutes either

I see what you mean with both T'Challa and The Watcher. I think unfortunately that Lego is unlikely to do a brand new mould for T'Challa as Starlord and more likely to stick with what they already have if it is 'close enough'. Could probably wind up having a new hair mould though I guess, would make more sense in my view than them giving us a new mould for the Starlord style helmet.

Again, this is how I hope they do bigfig Thanos's head. And I didn't even think that it would also work outside of bigfigs for a Watcher!
