Marvel Superheroes 2015 Rumors & Discussion

[Colossus]

Honestly, can we please keep the wish lists in the damn wish list thread?

And please..."a Lego employee told me about all these 2016 sets" sounds rather weak. Then again...

I consulted my magic 8-ball by asking whether we would receive at least one new MCU Lego set based on any random Avenger in 2016. After shaking it like it owed me money, it responded, "YES DEFINITELY!". Feeling like I was on a roll, I asked it if an Avenger dies in the upcoming AoU movie. It replied, "BETTER NOT TELL YOU NOW". Hmmm...sounds pretty ominous.

Discuss.

Tis fine, updating it again based on new reports

So according to that, essentially we get the following 13 main characters who could recieve figures in the 3 sets... added Spider-man due to rumours

1. Crossbones - Likely
   
2. Winter Soldier - Unlikely
   
3. Baron Zemo - Possibly, though may not be important enough
   
4. Spider-man - Possibly, though could be left till solo film
   
5. Captain America - Definitely
   
6. Falcon - Likely
   
7. Black Widow - Likely
   
8. Hawkeye - Likely
   
9. Iron Man - Definitely
   
10. War Machine - Possible
    
11. Vision - Unlikely unless costume update
    
12. Ant-Man - Unlikely, recieved a year prior
    
13. Black Panther - Likely, though could be left till solo film
    
14. Scarlet Witch - Likely, if given a new costume
    

(Guess Quicksilver is off with the X-Men or something... )

Make Crossbones a defenitely

They're set predictions not wishlists.

[Colossus]

Sorry. I missed that because of the "I wish these characters" and "I'd like to see these in a set" statements laced through previous posts.

[Colossus]

I understand that this thread is for set discussion as well. My comments were not aimed at at those engaging in set speculation. I did not intended to offend them. For that, I apologize.

I apologize too. I thought this was the future speculation thread because of all the 2016 set predictions.

[Quicksilver]

Just thinking here, is it possible, in the supposed 5 Avengers Assemble sets being released next year we get a Deadpool minifigure to relate to the movie in a indirect way?

Don't call me crazy, but even though Deadpool is going to be rated R, X Men DOFP was pretty gruesome and had some suggestive material for a PG 13 movie, yet they got a colourful and kid friendly indirect tie in set.

Also, the first set Deadpool was featured in (Wolverines Chopper Showdown) was one of the (if not the) best selling superhero sets of 2012, due to the fact of several exclusive Figures, Good Price point and the Merc with the Mouth. It is also a very valuable set on 2nd after market, meaning a lot of new Lego investors would be happy if they had a set with a new variant of Deadpool included.

Although Deadpool has not been on Avengers Assemble yet, he has been featured in it's sister show, Ultimate Spiderman, in one of it's most iconic episodes, Ultimate Deadpool. Meaning Children who watch the show will be aware of who he is, and might purchase a set with him in it.

Just my really long 2 cents.

[Master_Data]

^ I'd be fine with that. I missed the first set with Deadpool, even when I saw it on clearance...I'd like to rectify that, so I hope he comes in some set next year!

[Quicksilver]

Just thought of something. Have we gotten any information on when the micro sized Quinjet Poly will be available?

[MarvinM]

I was wondering if the Winter Soldier polybag is still a go for the June special. I haven't heard anything about it and it's making me rather paranoid that perhaps it was just a rumor. (Meaning I will miss a pretty cool figure, which I absolutely want)

It should still be June for the US;

"June: Main Set - 10247 Ferris Wheel. Promos: Marvel Superheroes Winter Soldier minifig"

[MarvinM]

Also, I heard that the marvel game might come with either Coulson, Falcon, or Bruce Banner. Do we know what will actually be the gift? (Seems a bit early, so I feel these are just assumptions anyways) I would prefer a MCU Falcon tho, specially if it comes with the plastic wing replacements like Hawkman and space Batman, I feel that would be pretty cool.

"June: Main Set - 10247 Ferris Wheel. Promos: Marvel Superheroes Winter Soldier minifig"

Nice! I would be devastated if I missed having such a cool figure

He said Marvel announced it, but i have my doubts!

Just a few days before the movie is shown on screen. I doubt it too but I'd love to see it. Just like what the top gear show did before the new season just started.

When does everyone think that LEGO will discontinue the three GOTG sets? I have money and want to get to Milano but I want Avenger AOU sets too, should I wait a while to get the AOU sets and get the Milano now or what?

The AoU sets will probably be around till Gotg 2

Go for the Milano now, especially. The GotG sets won't be around much longer--and there are reports of some deep discounts (I think some people said they got it for like $30; and I swear I even heard like $15 somewhere) being seen on the Milano itself (I think mostly from Walmart, but it may be dropping across the board). It's an amazing set and now is the time to get it--before it's too late!

If you want the Milano, i'd guess it'll be discontinued by Summer (December at the latest) given they'll be introducing lots of new Marvel sets presumably for 2016 and they likely wont continue producing the Milano then. The AoU sets will probably stay around till the Civil War sets are released.

Get the Milano now'ish.

[Legoman123]

I'm not familiar with the American Age ratings so could someone please tell me what the rating 'R' is equivalent to in England.

Not being familiar with the UK ratings system all I can say is R means you must be 18 or older or be accompanied by someone 18 or older (not sure how it is now but in my day this was not very well enforced)

Well whooptiedoo, look at what The Lego Nolan said:

" https://docs.google....sp=docslist_api In the image here

Never mind. The friend that gave me the showed it to me gave me the stuff on April 2nd but was still joking. Changed what the words actually said. "

Great flippin news!

I could see them re-releasing the fig somehow next year. Deadpool's a big money maker in merch for Marvel, and I'm sure he's the one exception to the Marvel's "No More Mutants" rule for merchandising. It'd be dumb of them not to do it at this point. I hope they do, anyway, because I had to sacrifice my Deadpool fig for the sake of purist figures, and I really miss him.
