Just curious, what kind of print defects are we talking about here?

Nothing all that noticeable if you aren’t particular like me: minor color bleeding, misalignment, smudginess, speckles, etc.

An ideal set would be: DareDevil in his old yellow costume fighting Stilt-Man and the Owl with an Owl-copter

Also add Leap-frog to that, give Mr Business legs to Stilt-man, and you have a pretty good $40 set!

Decided to take my Ethan Hunt's arms off to check them out on Punisher. Damn, I love how this looks:

Thanks for posting these man they look absolutely awesome! I think I gotta go with the slicked back hair, but the official hair looks so much better than I thought. Great Blade update too, the stud without the hair always looked a little too plain for me, and those legs are the best for adding detail imo. If I get these figs, I’m 100% making those combos.

Can't decide which hair I like more, though..

 

Upgraded my Blade as well:

 

Nice! Can I ask what that Blade hairpiece is?

It’s B.A. Baracus’, from LEGO Dimensions. It’s annoyingly rare, I think it was only included with him and one of the Jurassic World sets but check BrickLink, I feel like I’m forgetting something.

Annoyingly rare? Must be a regional thing then as it's pretty easy to get that piece for a good price on BL here.

I've definitely noticed a decrease in quality over the last two years in particular. 7 of the minifigure heads in my copy of Diagon Alley were visibly smudged and for some reason sticker sheets are never cut correctly anymore? My DA set had so many stickers whose edges were cut off, and I received three replacement sticker sheets before getting one that was cut properly. That's just ridiculous for a $400 USD set and I've noticed it in many other ones as well, most recently the 1966 Batmobile. I don't have a huge problem with stickers but at the very least I expect them to look the way they're supposed to.

The Stilt-Copter would be much cooler. Imagine taking off his stilts and using them as the helicopter blades

I have no idea who the Owl is.

Or Leap Frog. I only know Stilt Man because of memes. Going by the logic explained in the Bugle designer interview, none of these characters will ever appear in a set unless they make an appearance in the MCU. And if they do make an appearance in the MCU, they would be so toned down that they're virtually unrecognisable (Batroc).

Yeah I feel like if they did Stilt Man in the MCU they'd make him more grounded and tragic, like a double amputee with advanced robotic legs who resorts to thievery because he can no longer do the job he used to or something like that and becomes resentful. Honestly, I wouldn't be opposed to something like that but it certainly wouldn't have the same inherent comedy about it.

Also he lost his legs because of Iron Man

Well technically Stilt-man was already in the mcu. At least his suit.  The nerdy guy that made DareDevils suit is the Gladiator (also a big daredevil comics villain), and in the back of his workspace the stilts are standing between other stuff. 
 

btw Jerseybrickguy on instagram has bought two daily bugles and mirrorbuilded it to a bigger daily bugle

Daredevil isn't MCU tho.

Nice! Mine should arrive about a week from now 
Can't wait to build Iron Monger. Yes, he's massively oversized, but all the greebling and the details on him makes it feel very accurate nonetheless

I agree, he looks so incredibly well done that I stopped caring how oversized he is. It's an awesome set for MCU's 1st movie.

I preordered it on Amazon, (they say it should arrive in 2 weeks) I hope they won't messed up the preorders like they always do

[NXS7]

Got my Daily Bugle today, really looking forward to building it in-between my busy half-term work shifts

I've never had a set big enough to take me more than a day to build before, so it'll be so satisfying when it's finally completed

[TobyAis]

I didn't really notice this until now but the Cap in the upcoming 4+ set has a new torso and I think, I like it more than the 2015-16 one

[ToaDraco]

Brickset's review of the Iron Monger Mayhem has chang3d my mind in the set. I like it a lot more and will definitely get it just not day one for me. Man, the official product shots really don't do it any favors. It's still massively oversized and way too derivative of the last Hulkbuster set which was pretty awful. In hand the head doesn't look quite so oversized like it does in the renders.

Trailer should be dropping for Spider-man NWH this week, some are saying tomorrow - but it's unclear. Trailers are apparently being sent to cinema. We should have a lot to talk about regarding how the sets may look when it drops.
