The fig has leaked! It’s certainly a figure that’s all I’ll say 😂 Hopefully we got more soon 

I take it all back, the torso is perfect for a Tony Soprano custom

[Agent Kallus]

Well that happened.... but given that he an unexpected minifig not from the *list* I wonder who else if anyone, is also gonna show up that wasn't on our list.

Obviously we're also going to get Venomized Keven Feige

@Mandalorianknight forgot to switch from his alt account

[BrickBob Studpants]

Now that‘s an unexpected inclusion! I wonder if he replaces one of the 22 minifigs or if he‘s a secret 23rd bonus character that‘s not advertised on the box, like Harry & Hagrid in the DA set

The rumor was 22+, but included a bigfig Hulk and a microfigure Antman and didn’t include Thor. So with Thor and Feige, we’re at 22 minifigures, 1 bigfig, and 1 microfigure.

I think the leak was phrased as "contains at least 22 figures" so I imagine it's an additional one! I like it, think it's a good inclusion.

For the pad, I'd be happy if there was a portal generator build with Eric selvig fig and a conveyor belt for iron man to land on like the mark VI in the Avengers. 

This. A conveyor belt for Iron Man to land on would be awesome. I definitely don't want a quinjet. We've got enough quinjets and midi-scale vehicles (tie advanced in the death star, y-wing in yavin 4) are meh imo. Plus, I want most of the piece count going towards the building. I want it as massive as the piece count can let it be. It better be bigger than the Bugle.

Can't wait for leaked images! Mid Oct can't come soon enough.

Walt Disney and Kevin Feige in the same year. Now if they make a George Lucas fig I can stage my Disney heads battle

Lucas hasn’t had anything to do with Disney since he sold Lucasfilm though

[AndrewCole14]

Loving the inclusion of Kevin and the Wasp minifigure also looks great though not much different to her previous minifigure. 

[Scarilian]

Wasp leaked: No arm print, no leg print, torso is so similar to the previous that it's barely different, helmet is printed... eh

I'd have much rather had a Stan Lee figure than a Kevin Feige figure, but maybe they just did not have the rights to do Stan Lee.

Absolutely. Feels like things have really started with the leaking of the 2 figures. I imagine they will keep coming from now onwards. 

Wasp looks good, though hope she comes with wings too. 

 

[SpiderJazz]

Slightly updated torso - but the highlight is its sharing the helmet mold of Antman. It’s nice. 

[PsychoBuilder]

I feel like that mold works a lot better for Wasp than it does for Ant Man actually. I really don't love the lack of leg printing, but I'll certainly be using that helmet more often than the Iron Man one. 

[JeanGreyForever]

Stan Lee would have been the better choice, especially since we've surprisingly enough never gotten him in minifig form before minus the Lego games. If we ever get a Baxter Building tower set, I'd love to see him as Willie Lumpkin.

Aren‘t there some rights issues concerning the usage of his likeness? I faintly remember reading about that, but I might be wrong.

Right. That’s true.

I get that Stan Lee is way more desirable than Kevin Feige but it really is complicated.

Real life person made to be figured is tricky because you have go to the person and ask for the approval and rights to make a licensed minifigure. Stan Lee is probably also difficult because of his passing #RIP #Legend #Excelsior 

[wesker]

The Wasp figure looks similar to the previous one but it addresses my main complaint I had with the original which was the helmet mold. The new helmet looks much better here. The Keven Fiege figure is unexpected. Don't really care about getting him but it does open the door for other potential characters to show up in the Avengers Tower that we don't know about yet.

The lack of a complete ‘92 X-Men roster in any of the merchandising we’ve seen so far makes me fairly confident we’re gonna be missing a few members when the Mansion and Blackbird release.

Hopefully that won't be the case. I don't mind passing on the new additions to the team but I hope they at least prioritize on including all 9 main characters from the original show.

I thought Thor was mentioned in the initial rumor. I believe he was listed among the reused minifigures indicating it was going to be the same figure from the Quinjet and Thor's Hammer sets.

Pensavo che Thor fosse menzionato nella voce iniziale.

Yes, it was mentioned. Sometimes, on these pages, urban legends come to life for no real reason lol.

I'm very happy with the inclusion of Kevin (even if he seems very distracted lately, anyway we have him to thank for the best things in this MCU).

This tower looks more and more like a 10th anniversary set that for some reason came out late…

We can always just say 15th anniversary of the MCU! 

The Kevin figure is awesome, a really nice touch. I hope this opens the door to getting a Dave Filoni figure (or at least Trapper Wolf figure with the cowboy hat) at some point in the star wars line.

Wasp, on the other hand, annoys me a lot. It's a slot waste. This is 2 new prints, right? Why not use them on a character who was actually in or around the avengers tower?

[LegendaryArticuno]

The Wasp was always a good minifig, glad she's included since she's quite pricey on Bricklink the last time I checked.

That said, arm and leg printing would've gone a long way.

I'm sorry, I don't think I understand. Do you mean him being in the tower is an urban legend, or the opposite?

I do agree since I don't care about any of the Antman characters in the slightest.

But I find very funny you'd complain about this right after writting how cool it is we're getting a movie producer as a minifig.

It's true, maybe we also have a celebratory logo on the box, or something like that.. I don't think the character is inserted silently as if he were an avenger..

Thor is present in the original list
