This past weekend, The Boy and I sat down to build all of the new Marvel LEGO sets. I happened to take a number of pictures during the process, and shared them via my Instagram account. If you don’t follow, take the jump for a look at the Minifig versions of your favorite heroes.
Overall, the Lego sets are really nice (though a tad expensive) and I know The Boy is going to have hours of fun playing with these sets.

Listening to you talk about these in the podcast I was confused for a moment at one point.
You said that there was a “throne” type vehicle and for some reason my head heard it as “thrown” type vehicle. For a few seconds, I sat there thinking, “Why the heck would you throw a Lego vehicle?” Yeah, that’s how my brain works.
I really like the look of the Hulk and Iron Man figs, but looking at them all makes me wonder why they just painted Cap’s helmet onto the figure’s head. Everyone else gets external helmets or hair, but Cap’s is just part of the head. Seems like he got the short end of the stick there.
Wow, I mean, I had some neat lego sets as a kid but NOTHING on the same order as those. Way cool!
Any idea what the MSRP is in these?
Yup. I do have an idea… they range in price from $12.99 to $69.99. We covered the prices on these on the most recent Major Spoilers Podcast. You should give it a listen, it’s a great enhancement to the website.
