Why am I now just realizing this!? 2022 doesn't just mark the 10 year anniversary of Lego Marvel Superheroes; it also marks the 20 year anniversary since Lego Studios Spider-Man set, making it the first Lego set with a Marvel character.

And also the 20th anniversary of the first Raimi film (for which the Studios sets were tie-ins)!

I find extremely amusing that some of you guys are demanding more Venom.

Well yes, I want Spiderma 3 Venom. Sam Raimi one.

People are sick of Venom because LEGO keeps shoving the same exact comic version down our throats, with a very minor change every few years, but I don't think anybody would complain if LEGO did more unique variants of Venom (be it from comics or movies).

People love Venom, and they'd love more Venom in LEGO.

The problem is, we've been getting the same exact variant since 2018. No one wants that anymore, doesn't matter if he's alone or in a Venom mech.

[TobyAis]

I wouldn't say no to a bigfig Venom personally 

[thebricksbear]

Is the "Shuma Gorath" set out tomorrow? It seems really early but I swear I saw that somewhere...

 

Edit: looks like it's on Lego.com... my bad!

To be fair, the complaints are that we keep getting the same venom figure. A Raimi Venom figure would be AWESOME.

The movie was supposed to come out on March 25th but got delayed, that's why it seems early.

I wonder if Ant-Man Quantumania will have 1 set like the last 2 films

It had better not. Ant Man is the single most unappreciated part of the MCU (okay, maybe Captain Marvel, but still). I mean, we’ve gotten one (widely available) set for each movie, both at a 20$ price point. It’s seriously lacking, especially when there are some solid sets that could be made.

Really no way to tell. A movie as huge as MoM didn't even get all of it's main characters covered while Black Panther is getting a whopping 4 sets. Who knows what they'll do with Quantumania 

[BigA_7]

If the rumours about the no way home set and Raimi sets was true, when would you guys expect them to release?

Are there, though? I’m sure we’d all love a D2C Pym Laboratories suitcase skyscraper, but the only thing I can think of from the first two movies that could make a good set is the fight atop the toy train between Ant-Man and Yellowjacket. And even then, that was Thomas the Tank Engine. There might be a branding conflict there. 
Admittedly we have no idea what Quantumania’s all about, so I agree that multiple sets would be nice. But in terms of builds I don’t feel like anything’s really missing from the movies . . of course that’s not true for the minifigures, there are so many characters we need, but most of them can be made with customs fairly easily.

Damn you for putting that idea in my head for a set I now want so badly but know will literally never exist. I know the set from the first Ant-man film played into this idea with the bricks but an Ant-man set that focuses on the idea of 1 large almost life-size item (like the suitcase lab) with the mini-figs representing an actually shrunken down Ant-man and Wasp would be so good.

Okay that genuinely does sound awesome. Like that one Fantastic Beasts set with the occamy that was giant to minifigures but shrunken to us people. Fingers crossed we get something like that for Quantumania? I’d be entirely on board!

I mean, Lego loves car chases…there were several of those in the second movie, and they without a doubt could have done an extended lab. The train fight was certainly neat, but I think some sort of scene at Pym tech could work too. Luis’s van would have worked too, if it had not been made for the Endgame wave 2. Admittedly, it’s not really sets that are missing, it’s perhaps more the pretty high number of gigs that actually contribute a lot to the story a lot that just weren’t covered.

There are definitely more scenes that could make for a neat set. Just some very rough ideas off the top of my head: 

Ant-Man
$15-20 - Ant-Man vs Falcon
Figures: Ant-Man, Falcon
Build: Avengers Compound warehouse facade with some play features

$30 - Pym Industries Infiltration
Figures: Ant-Man, Hope, Hank, Darren Cross
Build: presentation area in the Pym laboratory with a display for a Yellowjacket nanofigure

$20-30 - Ant-Man vs Yellowjacket (remake)
Figures: Ant-Man, Yellowjacket
Build: out of scale toys, could get really creative with this one 

Ant-Man and The Wasp
$15-20 - Restaurant Fight
Figures: Wasp, Ghost
Build: destructable tables, chandelier, etc

$70 - San Francisco chase
Figures: Ant-Man, Wasp, Luis, Ghost, Sonny Burch
Build: Sonny's car and Giant-Man, a Minecraft head could be printed to represent the shrunken down lab

$20-30 - Quantum Tunnel fight
Figures: Ant-Man, Wasp, Ghost, possibly Janet
Build: Quantum Tunnel

[THELEGOBATMAN]

It really hurts me that the April set is almost definitely a mech dual-pack.

I'd love to get a regular Ant-Man set with an updated helmet.

I think it's pretty safe to assume whatever figures will come in that set will be reused in other sets later, just like all the other mech figures we've already gotten.

According to exabrickslegogo on IG, the mechs are now getting released in April  Not that bad of a delay, could’ve been much worse

It’s from hothbricks originally. Amazon has them with the new release date

[THELEGOBATMAN]

Hmm, so April will become a full-on mech wave, with those three mechs and the Ant-Man mech dual-pack.

[Scarilian]

Summary so far:

APRIL 1st

• 76202: Wolverine Mech Armor
• 76203: Iron Man Mech Armor
• 76204: Black Panther Mech Armor
• 76219 (Ant-Man $19.99 / 20€ 298 pieces)

MAY 1st

• 76207 (Love and Thunder; 20€, 159 pcs)
• 76208 (Love and Thunder; 50€, 564 pcs)

AUGUST 1st

• 76211 (Wakanda Forever; 50€, 355 pcs)
• 76212 (Wakanda Forever; 10€, 58 pcs)
• 76213 (Wakanda Forever; 30€, 355 pcs)
• 76214 (Wakanda Forever; 80€)

UNKNOWN

• 76215 (Hulkbuster D2C; 250€) - Possible March release like prior 76105 or 76042
• ?: The Infinity Saga Accessory Set (15€)
• 30443: Spider-man Bridge Battle Polybag
• 76210 (500€ D2C) - Unclear if Marvel or DC
• Thor's Hammer

I would not be surprised if 76209 is 'Thor's Hammer' which would allow people to buy the hammer before the original planned release of Thor: Love & Thunder which was May 6th 2022 before the recent delays - it would also fit with the numbering of the other Thor sets.

Edit:
76209 (120€) has now been revealed as DC :(

In general the day people celebrate the anniversary of Spider-man is the 1st August, regardless of if this date is actually correct in regards to the release of Amazing Fantasy #15. As such it makes the most sense for Lego to release any Spider-man legacy sets between June 1st and August 1st.

As for the NWH set, the movie is expected to get a digital/physical release around March so to capitalise on the movie's release they could have the NWH set release in March. Personally I feel we might not get the NWH set until June though as the D2C Hulkbuster will likely be a 1HY release, probably March.
