Marvel Superheroes 2015 Rumors & Discussion

[Ultron]

Well lucky for some of you complainers, we might get a full MCU Bucky if we get Civil War sets.

[NovaSentinel]

I think the eyemasked version will look fantastic fighting against the Cap from the Hydra set.

The mouthguard version, although not movie accurate, is generic enough a design to be passable with MCU figures. The differences between the comic costumes and the movie costume are minimal, unlike say Hawkeye or Falcon.

[DJ Bricks]

Guys the Winter Soldier is awesom!

The face is supposed to have one side be the comic version and the other is based on the film, though it is the cic version as his comic look was changed to fit the film.

[mattdev25]

I really don't care about the way this fig looks. I mean, his second face looks close enough to the film, and his torso does, too. I might just add on Hawkeye's old legs and that will be that.

[Douglas_Jon]

I think Daniel is right that one side of his face is comic based the other side is movie based. I may well get two so I can have each side on display with my MCU figures and again with my comic figures.

[Monkey Joe]

How does one get the Winter Soldier?

Sad, no weapons. but I love the domino mask version as that is how he appeared in the comics once he regained his memories and became Bucky again.

I think the Winter Soldier looks epic - give him a Brickarms AK-Sniper Variant and he will really look the part. I'll probably have him displayed among some HYDRA figures.

Excited to hear about the Rampage set featuring SHIELD - I've said time and time again that Lego can include SHIELD in USM sets to tie into the current MCU and the prominence of SHIELD, and it looks like they've finally listened!

Only thing that bugs me is the HYDRA figures in the Age of Ultron sets - I understand that they wear Arctic Camouflage in the movie, from what looks like the start assault, but would anyone have preferred them to be the all-black variants seen in Agents of SHIELD? I just feel that they would've been more usable in a wider variety of scenes then. Very happy to see HYDRA/SHIELD return, considering their prominence in the TV MCU atm!

That polybag looks awesome. I will hopefully pick one up when they are released. Granted, I also want an Electro polybag and haven't heard anything else about him...

[Legoman123]

I think this polybag will be released alongside the Helicarrier in March.

I would say that different people have confirmed we would get this polybag later, but then that is exactly what happened with ASM Electro.

luiggis62 on flickr just posted some close ups of the Iron Legion drone here:

[TheLegoExperience]

I like the helmet design, but not the torso design. And what's with the red translucent heads? I mean they're nice parts, but they don't make sense, and you can see it in the back. Maybe it will make sense in the movie.

[Ezekiel2517]

Maybe they have translucent heads because they are just the suits.(sarcasm).

Also they may also have the Mk. 42 feature of the pieces flying everywhere and that's just the propulsion.

[agoodfella77]

On another topic, do people think that TLG will be releasing more Electro (ASM2 variant) polybags or will be released in any upcoming Spidey sets?

As those following know, they were fetching prices in the mid 100s (180-ish) on eBay, but I can't seem to even find any listings anymore.

[DJ Bricks]

Anybody notice that the background for the poly bag has the bridge from the chase scene complete with explosions?

Yeah, I betting Lego just included faces for fans to choose since the both versions outfit look pretty similar minus a few slight differences.

Most toy versions of the Soldier I've seen has him with the mouth guard. Also it has similarities to the AA version of him too.

According to a post by FBTB, the poly bag is scheduled for a public release sometime at the end of the beginning of next year.

[Amazing Bricks]

One thing i just noticed is that all the way in the bottom of the winter soldier polybag, it shows the new avengers assemble logo. So this is based on the avengers assemble one I guess, and I'm assuming that the same avengers assemble logo will appear on the antman set box.

[tormentalous]

The Winter Soldier polybag will be available as a gift with purchase in June while the Avengers Helicarrier will be available for VIPs in February and public release in March. I also have more details of promos over at http://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-2015-set-release-dates-and-promo-details/.

[Jay_Em]

Guess I'll buy the Quinjet in June to get the Winter Soldier. 2015 is gonna be Marvel's year by the sound of it.

What date might the Helicarrier reveal be?

[Robianco]

If it's got a late Feb release for VIP members then I'd assume a reveal will be sometime soon... Maybe early January? The more I think about it the more I think it'll be like the SSD from Star Wars... More of a display model with some token figures that may have a bridge area to 'play' in.

That small 'leak' image from the Designers videos shows what looks like a micro Quinjet with it... As a play set that would look way off... Kind of ties in with us getting system scale Quinjet too.

Thanks for the update!

That's a very nice catch, have you seen a clean version of the new Avengers logo anywhere?

Hey Allen, glad to see you here

[Ultron]

Aw man, I wish Winter Soldier would release with the Helicarrier. I don't wanna have to wait to buy sets in June to get him. I guess that's how they get ya though. Then again, when can we expect the Spider-man and Antman sets to release? June would preferable

I like the helmet design, but not the torso design. And what's with the red translucent heads? I mean they're nice parts, but they don't make sense, and you can see it in the back. Maybe it will make sense in the movie.

They're just translucent heads because Ultron is controlling them so no one is inside them. Also, are they red or orange? They look red in these pictures but a couple pages back they looked Orange. Hopefully they're red.

I think they are definitely orange. They look like they are the same piece that the old Green Goblin used as his pumpkin bombs from the sets for the first Spiderman in 2003.

[mattdev25]

This is off topic but I love the new DC sets! They're really cool and all the figures are nice.

This is a Marvel 2015 Rumors forum, you can go to the DC forum for that.

With the Hellicarrier releasing for VIP's in February, we should be seeing an official reveal any day now!!
