THELEGOBATMAN Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 Well it's an anniversary wave so it's a different case. Nevertheless, by the end of the month we will have seen those sets, as they are never revealed in May.
SpiderJazz Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 Just a thought, the lack of torso or legs leaks for Chitauri could means they're reusing 2019 parts?
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 We’ve seen the updated chitauri head print, I think they’re entirely new.

Seeing the "coming soon" sign on Lego.com for the HP sets gets me excited

That's why I only said torso and legs , I've seen that head. Most of the leaks from factories mainly for Marvel line came in together as a whole piece. I'm just wondering why that specific character does not have the torso and legs when it was leaked, I'm thinking because the torso is still in production.

Harry Potter got special treatment this time because it's an anniversary wave. But regardless we'll have seen the Marvel sets by the end of the month, so anywhere in the next 2 weeks. 17 minutes ago, SpiderJazz said: Just a thought, the lack of torso or legs leaks for Chitauri could means they're reusing 2019 parts? I highly doubt that as neither the color nor style even remotely match up.

I'm not sure but the new head seems to be dark grey and the old torso is light grey.. So I hope they updated the torso.. and maybe put a little bit of leg printing, it's not a lot to do

But the head is dark grey, it wouldn’t match at all, and the level of detail is completely different. Then again, it is weird that it’s the only singular piece that has leaked so far, rather than the whole figure...

Yeah, probably the color of the head is DBG while the previous torso is LBG, I dunno it seems odd. I guess we'll see soon.

Maybe Peter, JJJ and some of the confirmed villains have new printing too.. but a character there has never been done, I think TLG was generous enough to include those 3. That's my personal opinion. In my opinion getting only 3 new characters out of 14 in a $300 set is not generous at all lol. Thats $100 per new character! I have collected every single Marvel set (except D2Cs) since day one and unfortunately it feels like the past few years I haven't added any NEW characters to my minifigure collection, just variants (and a million Outriders, Chitauri, AIM soldiers )

Those $300 are getting you at least 11 other figures and a huge build on top of those 3 figs, it's not just about them.
Falconfan1414 Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 I wonder if we are going to see thanos ship sooner then we though
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 (edited) I'm guessing you mean like how the Harry Potted flying Lesson technically comes out in august, but was shown today because it'll be a store exclusive in june? It could be a similar situation, a $30 set with 3 figs... Edited April 16, 2021 by NetherCreeper

So I would bet the two exclusives (thor house and Thanos ship), are shown off as well and are exclusives to stores. Evidence for this could be we know thor house is a exclusive and with the korg head piece it should release in june

THELEGOBATMAN Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 If all the August releases suddenly becoming June releases, do you guys think taht the What If...? set might also be a June set after all? It doesn't seem likely, but it's a possibility to be honest.

Do you think the marvel sets will also have a press release, or was that just because of the Harry Potter anniversary? I’m thinking of how in November we had that week of back to back press releases with winter set reveals, and I’m wondering if that’s the case now too. I don’t expect you to have a concrete answer, obviously, but it’s just what I’ve been thinking. 1 minute ago, THELEGOBATMAN said: If all the August releases suddenly becoming June releases, do you guys think taht the What If...? set might also be a June set after all?

There are 8 sets in June, an AC in September and a 2HY D2C.
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 Oh, ok. I saw 2 set numbers on brickset without pics and just assumed that was what was going on. Maybe you’re right then.
