I doubt they'll want the Daily Bugle releasing on the same day as another big D2C, so I think the Bugle likely won't release until later in June. Not sure if it's a normal or VIP release but it's definitely May 26th.

Unknown Jedi Master Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) Does the Friends reveal mean we’re not getting a Marvel reveal? 5 % then I guess. Edited May 11, 2021 by Unknown Jedi Master
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 An official press release reveal? No, but they could be revealed via other means, like standard retailers posting images.

Not really as the embargo on the setpictures should be lifting today. Only problem is that we don't know at what time that is and how quickly retailers will act on it.

The ship itself contains a cockpit, armory, computer and a ''place where heroes can grab a coffee and donuts". It comes with a rotating base and has the following measurements: 25cm high, 36cm long, 59 cm wide (to compare the 2019 set was 9cm high, 22cm long and 46cm wide). Chitauri aside, that sounds awesome. I liked the old one, but considering they seem to live on the ship it's good that we're getting a more expansive interior. Can't wait to see it!
BusterNut31 Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 Hahah never had such a bittersweet moment as looking at the great friends set thinking “but its not the marvel pics!!!” lol i guess we wait.
hvader Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 We’ve waited 3 years for bald Thanos and 2 years for accurate Endgame sets, I guess we can wait a couple of hours/days for the Infinity Saga HD set pictures???
TOTDForever Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 I like how we all have been begging lego for a bald thanos for years now and now that we finally have one a lot of people are begging for the inclusion of his helmet ☠ I'm not complaining I just think it is funny

For most of the scenes we would want to recreate, this is more accurate anyways.

I hope this Thanos stays exclusive to the set (they can release other variants later).

He already lost his helmet when heroes like Black Panther and Scarlet Witch showed up so this is accurate for the scene they are trying to recreate. Edited May 11, 2021 by hvader

That's really it. Because the real problem here is that comic book Thanos does not work for MCU Thanos

I'm starting to think, they made Infinity War Thanos in an Endgame set, which I'm not complaining about, we really needed it
Balrogofmorgoth Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 We’ve been waiting so long for these sets, I can’t wait to see HD pics. Really bummed about the August US release though. I’m getting really sick of Lego doing that

I hope this Thanos stays exclusive to the set (they can release other variants later). I second this. Hope they remake the IW version with this new set of molds.
MasterofElements Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) I did a quick drawing of the Final Battle set just so I could see it more clearly for myself, so I'll share it here too. It's a drawing of the set so I don't believe it violates any guidelines but feel free to remove this post or I will edit it if it does in any way: https://imgur.com/a/MWRzaMU Love the set Edited May 11, 2021 by MasterofElements
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 This drawing brings up something I noticed. What on earth are Iron Man’s accessories? It’s not a power blast pack, because there’s only 1 for Wanda, but it’s too big to be a power burst, and he’s got something large and dark red in his hand. I’m curious as to what it all is when we see it.

The_Fiery_Rooster Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) Yeah, with the description that would make sense, but it doesn't look like a gauntlet, it looks more like a shield to me. I also wonder what the thing shooting out of his other hand is. Is it just a special effect on the box, or is it a physical piece? Edited May 11, 2021 by NetherCreeper
Legocity2713 Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 So did the dude who took these photos build the sets yet? Bc we could use another wave of potato quality pics right about now.
The_Fiery_Rooster Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 We've never seen built sets from this source and I suspect whatever safety tests they do has nothing to do with building it. It's such a weird source of leaks, whatever this testing facility is.

Controlling every product to prove it is clear to put on the market. 7 minutes ago, NetherCreeper said: Yeah, with the description that would make sense, but it doesn't look like a gauntlet, it looks more like a shield to me.

Probably his transparent shield whem protecting him and hawkeye from Banner snap? It could also be the dual blade weapon like the marvel legends that just has been revealed inclusion.
