Seems like she will get a costume change, but I don't know if it's the stealth suit. Good catch! That is definitely her Stealth Suit, since the only (Steve Rogers) Captain America suit to have silver stripes there is his Stealth Suit.
lego_guyon02 Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 The new episode of What If...? was amazing and had some great set opportunities. Here are 2 ideas: Spoiler The Collector Showdown Price: $20-25 Figures: T'Challa, Yondu, Nebula and the Collector Builds: display cabinet/prison and a weapons rack (Korg's hand, Cap's shield, etc)Ravager Ship Price: $70-80 Figures: T'Challa, Korath, Kraglin, Taserface, Thanos and 2 Sakaaran soldiers Builds: M-Ship "Mandela"
BusterNut31 Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 So the new valkyrie fig from the what if set is dark grey… is that accurate as she was wearing dark blue in ragnarok. maybe her outfit in the other timeline is darker.

It's actually gun metal grey, not dark grey. LEGO doesn't really have a perfect color for her outfit so both dark blue and gun metal work, which one is better is up to personal preference but both are accurate.
TobyAis Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 It appears some people have found the CMF early in the US So head's up to you, guys.. apparently found in a Meijer and a Walmart.. good luck!
RaichuKing263 Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Now that Minisuperherostoday has his hands on the cmf I cannot wait for the customs he will make with those figures. Also an unprinted version of 970c00pb0936 may work quite well for Sylvie

This looks to me like gunmetal smeared with blue dye. Weird. I’d have said gunmetal with dark blue print but I’ll reserve judgement until we actually see her in What If…? because they might have changed her design.

Clone OPatra Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 Despite the CMF's release date being 1 October here in Australia, I'm already dreading the process of getting the figures I want from this series. We're very likely to still be in lockdown where I am, with retail stores closed to browsing, so there will be no way to go and feel the packs. There are some online stores that sell full opened sets without markup, but I only truly want about 5 out of the 12. Not a fun time for CMF once again.
TakeaBrick Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 The Greatest MCU movie of all times. Period. LEGO should have made at least 5 sets out of it. Wasted potential.
lego_guyon02 Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 I was sold on this movie long before the first trailer even came out but this looks dope, way more excited for this than I've ever been for No Way Home. Definitely picking up all 4 sest asap!
BrickBob Studpants Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 It’s funny how they immediately addressed the questions most people had after the first trailer (who the Eternals are and why they didn’t interfere before) Looks impressive! Can’t wait for the sets to finally be added to s@h so we can get a better look at them (particularly close-ups of the interesting-looking interior of their ship)

If LEGO does not ride on this IMMENSE hype and instead decides to waste resources on failed themes like VIDIYO or Hidden Side sets, what can one say?

If LEGO does not ride on this IMMENSE hype and instead decides to waste resources on failed themes like VIDIYO or Hidden Side sets, what can one say? Um, the movie isn't even out yet. Let's wait and see how it actually is? Plus (not that I put much stock in the Oscars), the director won her Oscar after she'd wrapped Eternals, so it's not like Marvel signed an already Oscar-winning director. Marvel has hired a fair number of renowned Indie directors, with mixed results: some are great but others clearly can't handle the action scenes and those are thus given to an action department and come out pretty generic. And no, there's no way the hype is anywhere near Avengers where each film was built up with beloved characters over multiple other films. Like THELEGOBATMAN said, LEGO is already doing more sets and coverage for Eternals than they generally do for standalone films.

Do you think kids care about it being a movie directed by an Oscar-winning director? Lmao Do you even have the slightest idea how Lego's business even works?

TobyAis Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 To me the only thing stopping me from getting on the hype train for Eternals, unlike Shang-Chi, is that I have no idea what to expect, which is also very good don't get me wrong..
BrickBob Studpants Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) Well, “moderate hype” in MCU terms is still above the levels of hype for most other projects I for one am really looking forward to it and appreciate that they decided to dedicate four sets to this film. Still quite surprising, but with 10 heroes being introduced, it makes sense to release more than two sets based on it (even though Dane Whitman being omitted is regrettable) Edited August 19, 2021 by BrickBob Studpants

Good point, we still don’t know if he’ll suit up in this film or not The question is, when he will eventually… Avengers 5? When are we expecting the official official set reveal btw? Now that the second trailer has shown the Deviants (including Kro) and two Celestials (including Arishem), they don’t have any excuses to hold the HD pics back any longer
Leggomyleggo Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 It would have been cool to have another celestial but im sure mocs will be easy to do given they don't need specific molds.

You don't hire an actor like Kit Harrington to play Dane Whitman to not utilize him for the next 3-4 years. No idea on set estimates.

We don’t really know how many of them will actually show up in the film. I know there were like 5 or 6 in the initial concept art, but that’s not necessarily indicative of how many of them are featured significantly enough to be set material For all we know, Arishem could be the only one with any screentime to speak of 2 minutes ago, Buckethead said: I imagine he would suit up, but if he doesn't, he'll probably get a solo project in the near future.

No projects beyond 2023 have release dates yet, so a solo film in early 2024 could be realistic. Or maybe he shows up in another project first, like one of the D+ series?
