This minifigure pack contains four characters focused around Asgard, alongside a lone Chitauri Warrior. These versions of Korg and Miek are particularly exciting, as both are exclusive.

Good early April Fool’s Joke
I mean, it looks cool.
Good mini-fig selection, though I question the name of this pack being "Endgame Battle".
I honestly like this. The more recent minifgure accessory packs have focused more on the builds, rather than the figures, and I think this is a return to formula. Not only is it a great way to get 4 1/2 figures, but the figures themselves look amazing!
This is beautiful!!!!
So the Star Wars command centre 40558 is the same price with one and a half less minifigures but the same price? I know Star Wars tax is heavy compared to unlicensed themes, but Marvel is the most comparable, so I would’ve expected the same structure of contents… :(
That’s an unbelievably good price, holy cow!
I especially love the Miek exosuit, it’s about time they made one and it delivers. Bigfig Korg when though??
Also I now want this for literally every character present at that battle plus one for chitauri and outriders each
As a casual Marvel fan I'm pleased to get these minifigures together without having to go to Bricklink or buy sets I don't like.
I do wish they'd offer more ways for AFOLs and TFOLs to get unique minifigures. They might not find it's financially viable for LEGO store exclusives but there's clearly a demand!
What is that thing behind Thor supposed to be?

The speeder (?) in that Command Station is fairly sizable in comparison to the dinky lil turret here, so that's most likely where the tradeoff lies honestly.
Well, good for people who don't own any of these characters.

I think it is supposed to be an Asgardian Cannon. Though, really small.
Could use a Stormbreaker, but otherwise great.
Endgame battle, but Thor is wielding Mjolnir.

I know. I was referring to the release date
im good
Thor, Valkyrie, Korg and Miek against one Chitauri. That’s going to be a very short battle

Yes, i’ll buy!
It's nice, but sure is odd name to have for the set.
Thor should come with a belly mold as well.
Really puts the SW tax in perspective.
That Mieks figure is going to be constantly falling backwards, but yee good build!
That Korg figure looks so great I don't even mind them not doing a big fig mold for him!
Overall I like it, but this is still a pass for me...
So...Kraang couldn’t find a proper Utrom battlesuit, so he cobbled this together in five minutes at Home Depot?
Perfect way to get minifigs of Korg, Valkyrie, and Thor.
It's nice, I wish the build was a bit more substantial

I would only be interested in Thor and possibly Korg. The rest is not bad as a parts pack though.
"Avengers? Assemble."
"...okay and you guys can come too."
Including a pegasus for Valkyrie would have been amazing
Nice cheap way to start off collecting Thor figures. Valkyrie’s not in her Endgame outfit though, which honestly may be a dealbreaker for me as I have the Thor and plan on getting the love and thunder set.

The Star Wars set is also way more substantial in terms of actual builds, though.
I do hate that Miek has been considerably botched from his comics version. The film version is a running gag; the comic one was a brutal, menacing character.
@goldenguy880, Agreed though it would have put the price up quite a bit.
Miek in his exoskeleton is awesome! Korg really should be a bigfig, but he’s still cool. Nice set!
This would be better if it was called Endgame Battle Pack 1...and then they released more and more with other characters that showed up in that movie. A Captain America pack, an Iron Man pack, a Guardians pack, etc...
This is very cool. I'll be picking it up for myself and my oldest son.

"I love it. Long overdue
Edit: also, I know a lot of people are disappointed because Korg isn’t a bigfig, and although he is a bigger guy, I don’t think he quite makes it to bigfig status"
I would agree, he's not quite the same size as other characters like Hulk or Thanos that have been bigfigged.

A big dig would be unnecessary; but a body mold similar to Axl or Hagrid could work.
More like Neo Asgard Battle Pack. Valkyrie doesn't even wear her white armor...
I don't know about this one, as pairing it up with the Goat Boat would give three doubles, and I already have 2 Thors...

Yeah, but who wanted the builds?

I suppose that the issue is perceived value rather than objective value. From a cost perspective, the same quantity of material is provided in both sets. However, the perceived value, which is certainly a valid metric, depends upon what a person wants from the set. Personally, I think the Star Wars one represents better value, as it’s more substantive in terms of total volume, and the number of minifigures included is still generous for the price.
Valkyrie's skin is way too orangey.
Korg and Meik are cool but why is Valkyrie still in her Ragnarok costume, I'd hope for an actual valkyrie costume from the films, with the white armor and blue cape
Day-one purchase for me! But that Korg mace/bat is absolutely ridiculous.

It's not a April Fool's joke silly!"
Can't help but to think that considering the release date and price. Seems too good to be true.
good mini figs but I feel like this should be from Thor Ragnarok rather then endgame

He's also very not fat.
They should rejigger the duckbutt and put that at the front as a belly. :D

I thought that at first, but then I realized that it is his canon. It still looks weird, but it makes more sense to have a stud shooter on it.
Um, April fools?
I like it. Been hoping for an easy way to get Valkyrie and for a while she was pretty exclusive. Is this her second recent appearance?

Yea, it seems to be the exact same minifig that appeared in 76194 last year. Before that, she only appeared in 76084. A new minifig will be also showing up in 76208.
So this is like a last chance for Lego to release accurate/fixed endgame minifigs?
Very happy with Korg and Miek though Valkyrie is not accurate
Definitely will be getting this!
