    The Marvel Super Heroes sets have now made it to preorder on Amazon. As they're all at RRP, it's a great opportunity to pick them up with free shipping, and normally Amazon ships them before the official release date.

    Thanks Doomtrool for the tip on the US thread!

Does the US thread mean my comment on the piece of news about these set being available in Walmart in the US?

^ That's the one

Despite wanting these so badly, I'm still going to wait for Amazon to drop these down in price. But if they don't I'll snap them all up by the end of the year anyway ;)

^ I have a similar dilemma, but I doubt I'll get many of the sets.

I'm hoping in the next couple of weeks they will become available at Argos because I have about £200 of vouchers for there.

^^^ if amazon feel the need to discount star wars sets by up to 30% I see no reason why these sets wing be equally discounted in the UK.

^His name is Loki, and I don't know what he has to do with the hulk.

Will amazon.com also ave this available for preorder as well?

Loki and the Hulk are in the new Avengers film with Thor, Iron Man and Captain America.

All of these sets except the Wolverine one are tied in with the new Avengers movie, and that's also why they're so boring. They should've done what they did with the DC sets instead and just used more well-known, classic scenes/vehicles/etc. from the comic books.

I like the Loki escape, captain America and wolverine sets but I'm not paying full rep especially at exact £-$ price figure.

Posted by CapnRex101 in United Kingdom, 29 Mar 2012 02:54

I don't know if anyone knows who the sort of alien looking things from the Captain America pack or the biggest set but if anybody does, can you tell me? I am sitting here wondering!

I was told they are skrulls

@RiggsBooBubs - Thanks, they probably are.

Edit: the spiderman set will be based of the character desings from this show http://disney.go.com/xd/marvel/ultimatespiderman/ Doc Ock looks creepy!

I love Marvel and I love LEGO - two of my favourite things from growing up. Why is it that I just cannot get excited about these sets? They just seem so dull and forced. Even the DC lineup doesn't seem as inspired as the first lot of Batman sets.

Lord Of The Rings on the other hand...
