Marvel Superheroes 2015 Rumors & Discussion

[The Lego Nolan]

Apocalypse and Deadpool.

Gambit movie was moved up to next year as wel.

Well, MARVEL killed off Wolverine (IMO a clear middle finger to FOX), so this dispute looks like it will be lasting a while.

They also will be killing Deadpool. In issue #250

[Quicksilver]

So. Getting back on topic...

A good thing about including Hawkeye in the Helicarrier is that the Hydra Showdown set is irrelevant mini figure wise, as all the characters are in other sets as well.

Any chance in 2016 that Lego does a Hulk and the Agents Of SMASH set? I'd love to get She-Hulk and Red Hulk in a set. We've gotten USM and Assemble Cartoon sets so it could happen.

[Jay_Em]

Pretty sure there won't be any sets based on films not made by Marvel Studios.

I'm surprised they haven't done one already. Maybe since USM is getting axed(?) they'll give their only other setless animated show a shot? I'd love to get She-Hulk above the other Hulks personally, but I'm not opposed to a Rulk or A-Bomb. (Say, is Abomination in that show? Because he'd make a good villain if they don't mind 2 bigfigs.)

A Hulk set with Abomination would be fantastic... Although his design in the show sucks.

I guess the only thing holding Lego back from doing SMASH sets is that it would have to be a pretty expensive set to include 2 or more Big Figs and new head molds for Red Hulk, Skaar and A bomb.

But they could rehash Hulk, throw in a She Hulk mini figure and throw in Malekith or Annihilus or The Collector and you have a great set.

Wow. He does look pretty bad. But I Highly doubt we would 2 big figs on a set.

Any chance Lego uses The T Rex mold and puts Devil Dinosaur in a set? He appears frequently in the series.

His design in that really does suck. ._.

I was thinking Leader would work, as he's a Hulk villain that's minifig sized.

We have a new polybag coming!

Unfortunately, nothing too interesting, but still a nice remake of an older polybag.

[Gilberto_Aguilera]

hmm, just a little too big to be to scale with the helicarrier i'd say, a slight mod can make it be more size accurate to the other ones, i really hope that lego releases another polybag with the quinjets from the helicarrier so you can have more displayed on the helicarrier. they could make a lego store exclusive that includes one of those mini quinjets and two random shield agents, a male and a female, so you can buy lots and have more quinjets, and also just change the heads (and hands if need be) to create new agents.

Neat! That means another bag is on the way

[sander1992]

It is a nice remake indeed.

Can't wait for the sets.

[kevkipo]

So i called and got some info, the release date for the sets is March 2nd / 3rd! Also Attack on Hydra Fortress is available at the Lego Store at that time

Do you possibly know the exact price for the avengers tower and hulk buster set.

And if they are being released in March should it not be on the march calendar. I am a bit confused with that.

[JaseTJ]

USD? I was under the impression we'd heard the official prices already... $30-40 and $60 I believe. And I'd lean the Hulkbuster towards $40, I just can't remember for sure.

Awesome Galactus figure I hope we eventually get one like this: http://imgur.com/a/EcMX5/layout/grid#19

Sorry but it's all European

Yes i am confused too? i don't get such calendars cause thats for America only i believe

Sweet. Any details on where it will be available?

He's like a prime candidate to be getting one of those clocks. I don't know why they don't do that for characters like him who couldn't reasonably be in sets. It's not like they make less money from it.

I was hoping that we'd get a polybag on par with Joker's bumpercar from the DC side. Not necessarily a new fig, but a neat minifig-scale build. Even something like the Rocket Racoon one would've been nice. The mini-models just don't appeal to me.

Unlikely, Fox owns him too.

[KingDom]

Hey everybody, I'm coming back to LEGO after a long hiatus and Eurobricks after an even longer one. The reason for all this is the Helicarrier! If there's one thing TLG know how to do, it's making crazy expensive sets that fanboys just can't resist.

Slightly more on topic, I went to my local comic LEGO store yesterday and even though they had 50 in the back room, they said that because of wider supply issues, the set had been delayed from the 17th to the 19th of February for VIPs in the UK. Has anyone else in other countries heard of such a delay or is this just a UK thing?

Edit: I'm too used to writing about comics on forums

Not really.

1) What FOX owns are the rights to make films based on the Fantastic Four and X-men franchises including certain other characters.

2) The rights to the characters themselves are owned by Marvel.

3) for example, we've had Ultimate Spidey sets that have had nothing to do with Sony's ASM films.

In short, TLG Marvel could do easily do a Galactus big minifig based on the comics,and probably should.

I don't see the point of getting one, all it does is take space and just standing there

[Scarilian]

I know this is a little too far ahead, but just think about what the Infinity War sets will look like. There's going to be like 12 sets or something

Most likely, after all we'll get the GoTG and the Avengers, along with any other characters they include.

It would probably have to be a wave of sets as the Big-Fig's tend to only be one per set...

Its not a delay. That is the official release of the set on the 17th of February to the 29th (not the 19th) for VIP's. Then it becomes available for all at the start of March. Though honestly with double VIP points in March, their is no point rushing it.

From what i understand Spider-man is shared between Sony and Marvel, while Marvel are trying to get the rights back to Spider-man fairly via doing deals, Sony continue to be making films which keeps them owning the rights. Sony get to make films while Marvel get to make comics. They both get to make toys but profits are split i believe.

With Fox however, Marvel is taking a different approach, trying to dry up the fanbase support that they provide. As such Marvel is currently on a sort of 'war' to get the rights back to a Fantastic Four film before Infinity War part 2. They recently stopped doing Fantastic Four comics, so we will likely not get a Fantastic Four Marvel comic or series. While Marvel have the rights to Fantastic Four toys, once again the profits are split between the two companies. As such i doubt we'll get Lego Fantastic Four sets until after Marvel wins the 'war' and get all the rights back for Fantastic Four.

28th. It's not leap year yet
