The Captain America vs. Red Hulk Battle set is confusing.......I see Captain America and I see a red Hulk, but both seem to be attacking that unnamed spaceship together? And that other dude.....he's just a spectator I guess?

This could have been a fine €10 set with just the parts mentioned in the name of the set....

Aint no way Lego would charge a set for just 10 bucks if it had a bigfig in it. Even lego sets with just ONE minifigure are above 10 bucks.

Looking at the picture, I thought to myself that with a small jet and four figures, it'll end up being a hundred dollars or so.

Then I checked, and well, with the Aussie dollar the way it is, yeah, I was pretty close.

Sigh.

"The absurd price of that Red Hulk set makes me glad I got 76078 . Its vehicles were silly but it had four great figures (two bigfigs + two minifigures). It wasn’t cheap but compared to the forthcoming set it seems quite reasonable for what you got."

Seeing the prices 76078 goes for on the secondary market I sort of understand why Lego pricing is what it is. The desire is clearly there, so why not bank on it? It is pricing me out personally, but plenty of takers left apparently. Even with the silly stickers.

Rumours are that she will just be a Black Widow, which, if that is the case, why use the name/character at all. Unless it was too late in the process to change that (too many scenes of people saying her name to re film), and it was easier to cut out any backstory and film an extra scene or two with the new one.
Guess we will have to wait and see

I’ve had that rumor too. And to be fair, a lot of characters are referred to in the MCU by their given names: Natasha Romanoff, Clint Barton, pre-Captain America mantel Sam Wilson, etc. And I give them credit for them keeping her original Hebrew name (odd as it may be, translating to “Friend, angel daughter”… no one has that last name) and for having her be played by an Israeli actress (Shira Haas).

$50 for the plane would be expected of the massively overpriced 5-6+ sets, not a normal one. I guess it'll compete with the Hoopity and the X-Men jet for most overpriced Marvel set.

The whole Sabra thing is very frustrating. She's also a mutant, so with the MCU slooooowly introducing that concept, there's no harm in bringing her powers out.

Not to be too much of a Negative Nancy, but I really hate these construction figures. Do people buy them? Do kids like them? Is it just me?

The Red Hulk set is cool, but--like many have mentioned--ridiculously overpriced.

Not a bad spaceship, but I've lost interest in the MCU since Endgame. It would be interesting to check the parts list and price out a recolor, perhaps one that would fit with the current cross-theme Space initiative. With a single generic minifig, could you get the price under $20?

Nice to see that Sam finally figured out that he shouldn't leave the top of his head exposed!

Another Harrison Ford minifig.

If Disney really believe that this is going to cause any less of an outcry, they're immensely naive.

Imagine what would happen to future X-Men projects if the deranged anti-Israel crowd ever finds out which historical figures Magneto and Professor X are based on."

The story that Xavier and Magneto are based on MLK and Malcolm X has been de-mythologized in the last decade. It certainly fits given that they came out of the 1960s, but that's really a retroactive "this fits" take rather than something Stan Lee actually intended in 1962. There's a better case that the X-Men were just a convenient lift from DC Comics' Doom Patrol which was created a few years earlier and also included a leader in a wheelchair."

I know about the MLK and Malcom X myth. But Magneto and Xavier are based on Menachem Begin and David Ben Gurion respectively, as confirmed by Chris Claremont. Which is what I was alluding to in my previous comment.

He just drank a ton of Red Bull.....why do you think he turned red?"

I thought red bull gives you wings though...

O actually really like the ship design, and the figures included are nice as well. But that price is just atrocious. Only on a heavy discount would I be buying this.

The buildable figure on the other hand looks amazing, especially with those giant wings and the price is pretty decent as well. I really like this outfit for Sam Wilson.

I'm kind of annoyed that the first cap minifig in a standard set that has dual molded legs is Sam Wilson. Could they not have done this sooner? Hopefully the next regular cap will get the same treatment, but I doubt it.
Regarding the set itself, it looks overpriced, and as always people are unrealistically lowballing what the price should have been. This looks more like $40-45 set with today's pricing and the bigfig. That being said I won't buy it regardless. The only MCU movie that mildly interests me is Thunderbolts(and the next Spider-Man).

Green hulk, red hulk, what will they think of next?

That red hulk set will probably go on sale soon after it releases.
Unless any is crazy enough to buy it.

This movie may not provide what you’re looking for, but if you really want a lego representation of that ‘stache, I’d stay tuned ;)

Hasbro beat LEGO by several days.

Not including unmasked versions of Sam in either set feels extremely intentional…especially when he appears on the box art.

It does! That's why he's up there!

Does anyone else have a problem with the way Red Hulk's hands look in 40668? Because I think that it would have looked better if they stayed with standard BrickHeadz style.

They did the same with regular Hulk 41592, and Thanos 41605

They are both great sets, but how does Lego expect anyone to pay those prices!?

I had to look up Ruth Bat-Seraph on Wikipedia:
"Sabra is the alter ego of the Israeli superheroine Ruth Bat-Seraph (Hebrew: ??? ??-???). She is a mutant, and serves as an agent to the Israeli secret service known as the Mossad."
Yeah, I kinda get why right now they didn't name the set after her, despite her (and the contraption she's in) being the biggest part of the set...."

From what I have read I think I the film they are re-writing her backstory and character, to try to avoid any controversy "

To avoid controversy, Sabra's new name is "Kevin", and that troublesome backstory is rewritten entirely. Kevin, instead, is an ex-Navy SEAL, who nobly struggles with alcoholism and who tries to make up for being a terrible dad to his estranged children, by being a half-decent superhero. Will Kevin learn true responsibility? Will Kevin learn to be a hero to the people... that really matter? Will Kevin get his ex-wife back?

Probably, yeah.

There! Fixed it."

That's almost exactly what Netflix did to the character of John Robinson in their reboot of Lost in Space!

Hulk was originally grey and has reverted back to that color a few times.

There was a one-off story that had an orange Hulk for some reason.

You can get an unmasked version in 40668.

Ah...this movie's gonna be the 'gift that keeps on gifting'...:)

See, I think TLG just took a page out of Has-been's book. Recently they showed off their figure for this movie. And much like here; a certain Gamma-goof drew eyes and ire. See Has just recolored a Mark Ruffalo Hulk, so it looks NOTHING like Harrison Ford...and fans aren't happy.

Also, so McDonald's spoiled Red Hulk last Summer. How? Well, the movie was supposed to be out last Summer, 'til Dismal/Morbid delay it...and McD's say "Um, Nooooo", and pointed out how they're fed up w/the delays from those guys; and thus sold the toys, put up the advertising, and whole bit.:)

Her backstory also includes her only realizing Palestinians are human beings after almost murdering children, so uh. Weird thing to get hung up on, to be honest."

That’s not true. I actually just reread the comic (Incredible Hulk 256 ). Hulk arrives in Tel Aviv in the hold of a cargo ship. Though the book calls the port Tel Aviv, that city does not have an industrial port so the setting is more likely Haifa, which is the major Israeli port city. Hulk evades the Israeli military who try to subdue him and eventually reverts to his Bruce Banner form. He observes an Arab Israeli boy stealing a watermelon from a street vendor. Bruce misdirects the vendor who has given chase to the street urchin. He then asks the boy where he is and the boy tells him that he is in Israel and gives him an extremely oversimplified and inaccurate two sentence background to the Arab/Israeli conflict (but hey, he’s a little kid and its a comic book, so it makes sense to not have too much nuance). The two strike up a rapport as they share the watermelon. Suddenly, and without warning, a pair of Palestinian terrorist show up and bomb the cafe outside which the two of them are sitting. The boy is killed by the blast. Bruce gets angry and turns into the Hulk. Sabra shows up to subdue him. It is her debut mission. She almost succeeds but Hulk flees into the desert, taking the dead boy with him. Sabra gives chase and finds him mourning the boy in the wilderness. Seeing the monster lament the child’s death helps her see the humanity of her enemies: both the Palestinians and the Hulk. It is an outright falsehood to claim that “Sabra’s backstory includes her only realizing Palestinians are human beings after almost murdering children.”

MCU movies are bringing more stuff from the shows in. Falcon becoming the new Captain America was established in Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 also had mention of something that was first established in the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special."

There's a second Falcon, named "Falcon". As I remember he isn't in MCU yet? Or is he from a show? I didn't watch a single show.
