Chris10 Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 At last! Thanks for posting @poisonbricks! Looks great to me, definitely a Day 1 purchase. not sure why but Jean Grey’s face looks blue?!
BrickBob Studpants Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 Oh, it‘s beautiful! Finally a picture that wasn‘t taken with a potato and deepfried beyond recognition!

Chris10 Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 (edited) The airport battle and the large logo have also leaked. Both look nice enough but not really seeing a reason to purchase either. Edited October 10, 2024 by Chris10
psqidexslizer Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 (edited) The Mansion looks great, but dear god, some of those minifigures desperately need help. Jean and the Prof look great. Iceman and Bishop I need to see more of, and Storm has a new cape with printed lines which is fantastic. But dear lord, what are they doing with Gambit, Cyclops, and Magento? Magneto looks great from the waist up and Cyclops and Gambit would too if it weren’t for the strange hair choices. But those legs?! I didn’t expect Magneto to get boots, but no undies?! And what is going on with Cyclops?! They printed yellow on his hips! They could have just used a yellow hip piece instead of a blue one, but they went out of their way to make it blue so they’d have to print it yellow. Such a bizarre decision. The Mansion and Sentinel are both fantastic, but I honestly wish we got a few less characters if it meant better quality for the ones we did get. Edited October 10, 2024 by psqidexslizer
HadesKing28 Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 Merry Christmas everyone! Pictures of the mansion, civil war battle and the logo! And wow they actually all look great and I might have to get all of them
psqidexslizer Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 So Bruce/Nick in the logo just ended up being Hulk? I’m dead.
SEmrys Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 After that last fake leak I was worried the building might look a bit too... cartoony? I know it was fake and that this based on a cartoon, but textureless I suppose is what I mean. I think it looks great though. Love the Sentinel. Love the building. Doesn't look too slim. Cyclops, Wolverine (not that it matters after the CMF) and Bishop could be a lot better but it is what it is I guess. I'll wait for more pictures before I reach a proper verdict on them. Anyway, very excited. Recently moved my Marvel sets around so there's a place waiting for the Mansion. November can't come soon enough!
wesker Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 The X-Mansion looks fantastic! The final product really did it justice in the end and I'm looking forward to seeing how the interior turned out. Seeing the Sentinel in better quality really makes me hope it gets a stand alone release even more next year. The quality of the minifigures could be a lot better but at least we're finally starting to expand upon the roster. The Airport diorama on the other hand looks rubbish. The original set did a much better job at capturing the scene than this one does and the character selection isn't really bringing much new to the table. One look at the logo set and all I see is a red Batcave Shadowbox. The Cap variant is nice though.
Legocentrico Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 Oh god, is there a mark 6 in the logo (as damn rumored for months) or is my heart going to break??? :-(
psqidexslizer Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 (edited) TheBrickReporter has an image of how the Mansion splits apart. You can sort of make out the room. Looks like a main hall bottom center, library bottom right, mission room top center, medical bay top right, and danger room on the left. And behind the library is a reference to the 2019 Dark Phoenix film. Gambit has leaked. He really needs dual molded legs and a different hairpiece, but otherwise he looks good.

Borex Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 The X-mansion looks good enough exterior wise. I hope the interior will be better and have some neat easter eggs. I think the minifig roster could have been better though. I do like that Iceman is included. Bishop looks a bit plain to me. Actually i kinda hoped that Nightcrawler, Colossus, Shadow Cat and Lockheed were included as well. Lego could have given us way more figs than 10.
hikouki Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 So, which one of those characters is Mystique, pretending to be another character?

They all are, the whole thing is a time lapse of Mystique around the Mansion. When they said the minifgures were breaking out the logo they were being very generous!
BoyLego Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 (edited) Lots more mansion pics leaked, including interiors. Interiors look good but very tight! Sentinel looks pretty perfect to me. Whats interesting is that one of the pics (of cyclops and gambit fighting the sentinel) seems to have an alt costume for Bishop in the background. Edited October 10, 2024 by BoyLego
HadesKing28 Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 The gambit figure looks perfect!! Can anyone make out what some of the interiors of the rooms are?
LemonFlavouredBleach Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 Professor X is just reusing a torso from the office set and the lex luthor face
DaredevilFan Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 (edited) Cap doesn’t appear to have the dual-moulded legs from the leak. Wonder if that means torso was fake as well as the Ant-man minifig 🤔 Edited October 10, 2024 by DaredevilFan

BrickBob Studpants Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 12 years later, and they‘re still using the Bruce Wayne faceprint for major characters?! When will they finally retire it? Other than that, I like what I‘m seeing! The Ninjago wolf claw energy thing piece works very well for Gambit, who‘s my favourite minifig in the set! Love all the dynamic poses the set grants for the minifigs, just like the previous large-scale Marvel sets did The interior looks good as well. The other two sets aren‘t much to write home about. I like both designs, but I’m kinda getting tired of seeing the same characters over and over again, even if they have slight variations.
Agent Kallus Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 X-Mansion is a get. The other sets from today aren't, I meant the airport I'd probably be interested in if I'd didn't get the initial better version. £280 for the mansion apparently.
JohnTPT17 Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 The Mansion definitely looks nice - but I'm going to wait until we get more clear pictures of the back for me to get a final feel for it - based on what I can see, it might a a little cramped. In either case, $300 is going to be out of my price range for this - I can only hope that smaller, cheaper sets get made at some point. That, and Lego really needs to invest in some kind of cloth trenchcoat piece - it would help out Gambit and so many other minifigs. Even if it can't go into a full retail set, something in a CMF would be great (and they're done one-off cloth pieces in there before, like the S24 Falconer) Not having Hawkeye in the logo is bizarre. Sure, he's probably the least popular of the OG six - but he's still a foundational member. That just feels cheap and stingy. And the airport scene makes me feel the same way as some of the BDP sets - a nice set, but due to the baseplate, the cost is greatly increased. 1 hour ago, hikouki said: So, which one of those characters is Mystique, pretending to be another character? Rogue, obviously. Mystique can't copy powers, and Rogue is just standing on the ground while basically everyone else is flying, shooting laser beams, or both.

THELEGOBATMAN Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 The X-Mansion looks like a fantastic build. I love the overall look, the colours, and how it splits. The minifigures are a mixed bag, some of them look really rough. The Sentinel could also be improved. The price is too high, looks more like a 200–240€ set. The other two sets though (what a surprise, to see 2025 sets in October)? They're bad. The logo is as boring as I could've imagined. The holes in the sides look awful. The display poses are mediocre, and the minifigures don't interest me either. The Civil War set is a big disappointment though. I had high hopes for it, especially after the amazing Age of Ultron diorama. The build is bland, the Quinjet looks ridiculous, and Giant-Man is an awful downgrade (especially the head).
Agent Kallus Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 (edited) Hulk with just plain grey legs in the logo borders on comical. Edited October 10, 2024 by Agent Kallus
