cullmancreations Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 I guess I like the Avengers tower more because it is a building and its also a closed off structure. It can make a nice set piece background for city MOCs. You can always make it bigger as well Quote
adotnamedstud Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 the only thing that bugs me about the vision minifigure is that in the movie he like his classic outfit has a yellow diamond on his chest but the concept art and fig dont, they just has some strange design instead which to me is a fatal flaw since in my opinion the yellow diamond is like his main emblem. its like batman without his bat symbol (again in my opinion) What... 'fatal flaw', 'strange design'? He looks as accurate as he is needed to be. Not everything can be perfect but Vision is easily one of the best figs in this wave... Quote
BluePulse Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 as i said it was just my opinion. i just don't think that he looks as good as he could have, i didn't say he didn't look good i just would rather he had the emblem since its his emblem. Quote
Master_Data Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I just got my Electro figure. Excellent printing, and only $3.99 as opposed to the usual polybag price of $4.99! Quote
Hellfyre Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I know this is the marvel thread, but which set is better the Javelin or the Avengers tower ? Personally, I prefer the Javelin. It's a really nice and solid vehicle to swoosh around, and it comes with a cast of figures, all of which (bar Superman) are completely new. The Tower looks nice, but I would feel that the Javelin has more playability and use, as well as superior minifigures. Quote

kevkipo Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I'd say Javelin as well, i'm not a DC fan but it has Green Arrow and Cyborg (Wich is a good thing i guess) and a nice looking ship, Avengers tower is meh to me and the figs aren't that interesting either Quote
wilson3a10 Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I know this is the marvel thread, but which set is better the Javelin or the Avengers tower ? This is a preference between DC and marvel. Which side do you like most? Quote
BrickSev Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I know this is the marvel thread, but which set is better the Javelin or the Avengers tower ? It depends if you prefer a vehicle or a building Going a bit more into details: The set with the Javelin give more "unique" stuff than the Avengers Tower. It gives three Minifigures exclusive to the set plus a Darkeseid figure and Superman Minifigure (who is not exclusive) I have both of sets and even though the tower is nice it has several limitations: it's a part of the actual building, the interior is very cramped and if you really want to get more out of the set you'll have to do some MOD/MOC. So, if I'd have to choose only one of those sets I'd go with the Javelin Quote
Ultron Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Bit of a random question: could we ever see a fig like Hellcat down the line or is she a no no because of her name? Quote
VictorFrenchFries Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Hellcat is going to be on the Jessica Jones Netflix show, so she's a part of the MCU. But if we ever get a more recognizable character like dareDEVIL, then she's possible Quote

But if we ever get a more recognizable character like dareDEVIL, then she's possible Yeah I remembered she is gonna be in JJ so that's why I was wondering. Hopefully she doesn't become a SDCC exclusive though Quote
K-Nut Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Yeah I remembered she is gonna be in JJ so that's why I was wondering. Hopefully she doesn't become a SDCC exclusive though I really have no desire for an official Hellcat figure. The Batgirl hairpiece is perfect for her comics appearance. Then again, if and when she suits up on JJ, I may want an MCU version. Quote

kevkipo Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Its hard to keep track of everyone marvel is introducing! i wish Marvel introduced a little less hero and a little more of the same hero, i mean what am i to expect now? Seeing a few characters i've never heard of suddenly appear in Infinity War? i know about the defenders but hell cat? who's that? Quote
d-delay Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 That rumour about multiple Spider-man sets next year is the only thing keeping my slim dangling by a thread hope for a White Tiger figure alive. Even then it's still barely hanging in there, but I do hope they surprise us with her :/ Quote
Douglas_Jon Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 About what time this year does everyone reckon we'll start hearing news or getting Prelim pictures about next year's sets? I'm guessing rumours and basic details will be around July at the very earliest, likely around September, and prelims around November? Quote

Since the 2016 Winter/Spring sets will likely be Civil War, probably Decemberish. Quote
kevkipo Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 we got pics for AoU in October soo... i'd say around that time On another note do you guys expect a doc strange set? i picture one myself with a Mindless one, Dormammu and the Doc himself Quote
Jay_Em Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 we got pics for AoU in October soo... i'd say around that time On another note do you guys expect a doc strange set? i picture one myself with a Mindless one, Dormammu and the Doc himself I hope we get a Doctor Strange set, but the November release date complicates things a bit. Maybe they'll release a single £20/$20 set with the key characters, like they have for Ant Man. Or a full range of sets, like Battle Of Five Armies, but that seems less likely. Next year I'm guessing a Civil War range, like AoU this year. And either a summer wave, or an Autumn wave for Doctor Strange (like BotFA) and maybe comic sets. 2017 will be confusing- GotG in May, Spiderman in July, Thor: Ragnarok in November... I feel like at least one film will miss out. Quote
K-Nut Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 On another note do you guys expect a doc strange set? i picture one myself with a Mindless one, Dormammu and the Doc himself I think there's definitely a possibility for one. If Star Wars is getting a wave for their November/December releases beforehand, there's definitely a slot for a Doctor Strange set. Rogue One seems to be coming out around the same time, so they could release a Doctor Strange set simultaneously. 2017 will be confusing- GotG in May, Spiderman in July, Thor: Ragnarok in November... I feel like at least one film will miss out. Agreed. GotG and Spidey have prime release dates for TLG to make sets, but we've already seen that they've overlooked Thor sets... Hopefully we'll get at least one set seeing as it'll be the biggest tie in to Infinity War, but otherwise I'm not sure. Quote
Savage Oppress Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I am predicting March 2016 for Civil War sets and only one set for Doctor Strange in June 2016. Quote
Jay_Em Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I am predicting March 2016 for Civil War sets and only one set for Doctor Strange in June 2016. The film doesn't come out until November though... I don't think they'd release a set that early. Quote
kevkipo Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 (edited) Well, they better Maybe they'll release a single £20/$20 set with the key characters, like they have for Ant Man. Next year I'm guessing a Civil War range, like AoU this year. And either a summer wave, or an Autumn wave for Doctor Strange (like BotFA) and maybe comic sets. That was my idea as well, for every new solo movie a 20$ set, would be a good problem solver! And about Ragnarok, we have had enough spidey i think it's time for a Thor set finally! by the way we'll probably get Spidey in Civil war/Infinity war Edited May 13, 2015 by kevkipo Quote
