2023 Marvel sets officially announced!

"As for the Ghostrider mech... are those arm and leg knee and elbow joints new parts, or just a new colour of something I've missed somehow? Again though, feels about £10 too much when the similar mechs on their own have been £9. "

They have been used in a number of Ninjago mechs this past year such as 71761 So relatively new.

Finally...it's morbin' time.
Memes aside, all these look fantastic. I like the Quinjet in particular.

Also someone correct me on this if I'm mistaken, but 76248 seems to be a remake of 6869, it even has a similar minifig selection.

Mech uster looks good but hilarious there's another one.

Ahh, thats how I missed them. Not been following the Ninjago sets much.

That Hulkbuster looks better than the massive one. Hopefully the Ghost Rider mech is the only one this year.

Besides the Morbious set, nothing calls to me.

Another Hulkbuster? That can only mean one thing... it's MORBIN' TIME

Normally I'm quite fond of Marvel's mecha line ... but the Ghost Rider mecha has the one-piece legs, which is the first strike against it, and the motorcycle just looks too much.

And hey, check it out. It's this year's Hulkbuster! I guess it's just becoming an annual thing. It looks nice, but I've got ten of them already (including the one that came out for the Infinity War line, where it was fighting a bunch of outriders).

I'm torn on the quinjet... some good figs and some definite nostalgia but I can't help but just see a grey box. I'm sure it's relatively accurate, but is it something I'd want to display? Maybe not, will have to wait for better pictures. Hopefully we'll get a Milano remake soon.

Hulkbuster looks really good, although I still don't think they've managed to capture Mark Ruffalo's likeness accurately. It might be becoming the Luke's Landspeeder of Marvel sets, but this one's decent.

Don't have much to say about the other two.

Pretty cool sets, finally an Mk2 Hulkbuster and glad to see we get the same Thor minifig from the Hammer set in the Quinjet too.

The Avengers Quinjet looks quite cool with all the minifigures...probably will get one when is on offer at argos/amazon.

Yet another Hulkbuster! And this one makes the big one look like s***!

The Ghostrider set looks pretty sweet.

And the jet looks like a knock-off. That awful render sure doesn't help.

The fingers on Ghost Rider are new right? They looks slimmer than normal Exo-Force arms.

The Quinjet and the new Hulkbuster are awesome!

I have no interest in Marvel, however that Quinjet actually looks really cool! I wonder if I could somehow make it into a Second World War aircraft like a B25 Mitchell?

It's morbin time!

Winter Soldier sets are lava

Loving the 8-wide speed champions style for Miles' car

Weird choice to have the Quinjet be covered in Avengers-brand stickers rather than SHIELD ones.

But I guess given the repulsor jets in the wings this _isn't_ the Avengers Assemble film version anyway- even though the figure selection really seems to be trying to convince us otherwise.

I unironically like the It's Morbin' Time set with Morbius and Miles Morales

Oh gosh oh heck oh frick it's MORBIN TIME

Quinjet looks great; let’s just hope it’s reasonably priced.

For some reason Morbius looks more like Mister Sinister.

I was fully prepared to appreciate these sets from afar without any yearning, but Hulkbuster is looking beefy.

Dudes in mechs and mechs on bikes? Hey Ninjago, Marvel is biting your style!

Hulkbuster looks cool, but I count 10 stickers just on the front of the thing...I realize it's a smaller set, but come on.

The prices are a little steep for me, but I really like the Quinjet, but I feel like sets that are $100 or more shouldn't have stickers. I like the color combos on the Miles Vs. Morbius set.

Wow! Not a lot of love for Morbius on here! Never saw the movie, but Spider-Man the animated series (1994) anyone? He was the best. I'm very happy to be getting him!

Probably the only one I will buy from this wave.

Hulkbuster got its eye on Luke's landspeeder.

For everyone asking where the "quin" in Quinjet came from, one explanation:
https://textsfromsuperheroes.com/image/178395518537

@darthdrauf: You do realize that the Quinjet is a fictional vehicle, right?

@Skyguy: They've already begun. Did you not read the existing comments before you posted?

As an Agents of SHIELD fan, I am not going to get a quinjet that comes with the wrong minifigs. //CoulsonLives

I might get the Hulkbuster, since it looks nice and so do the minifigures. However, I don’t like the Quinjet. As I own all the previous versions, I really don’t think I need another one. Might bricklink some of the figures, but wish they had included Hawkeye and the Hulk.

Also, why haven’t we gotten a MCU Spider-Man set yet with the three Spideys from the last movie? It seems like an obvious choice for a set, maybe even a D2C one.

Box art is hideous. Love the Quinjet though!

WOW. It's Morbin Time!

That is the most vampiric car I've ever seen a spider-man drive...

I want to see next year's Guardians of the Galaxy vol 3 sets. When are they released?

@JasonBall34:
Heh. At a show we ran last week, I heard a kid tell his dad, "That's Harry Potter, dad. That's before my time."

@ozbrickcreator said:
"I want to see next year's Guardians of the Galaxy vol 3 sets. When are they released?"

I believe those are slated for March 1st. I remember seeing a rumor for Rocket Raccoon's HQ(a $10 4+ set), but I don't recall the other sets having rumors attached to them. I think they were priced at $40, $70 and $100, but I might be misremembering.

These are nice! I wonder if Morbius will become this one set only figure like Deadpool was few years ago.

@jkb said:
"What does quin in quinjet mean?"

It's short for quintuplet and refers to the five jet thrusters installed into the aircraft.

@legoDad42:
Are you sure it’s not because they’re gonna need a bigger boat?

@jkb said:
"What does quin in quinjet mean?"

The reason that "quin" means "five" is because the set comes with five minifigures.

Quod errata demonstrandium.

Honestly I’ve never been a marvel fan, but these sets look pretty damn amazing. The morbious set looks like something I’d build as a MOC, I love my black and red concept cars, and obviously, it’s morbin time.

Hulkbuster is a really nice mech, I love the shoulder angles and DO THE FEET HAVE FLEXIBLE TOES? It’s about damn time Lego. Finally we can get mechs in a proper running stance, I hope to see more like it soon. Whislt I know nothing about the character, ghost rider mech and bike look way better executed than the ninjago mech rider, which is kinda funny but also sad, as I love that set.
Quinjet looks alright. But something about the cockpit is throwing me off, it looks way to round and bubbly. Maybe that’s what it’s like in universe? Idk, as I said, I prefer my Ninjago sets, never really touched marvel.

is morbius's cup straight up filled with... blood?

Want Miles Morales vs. Morbius and the Ghost Rider mech bike but looking closer I think the legs andc arms are the new pieces Ninjago parts that don't move. Hopefully I'm wrong. Like the newer finger pieces though.

Cool, a Hulkbuster! I wish they had a $ 500,- one of tho... Oh, wait.

I like them all!

I know Lego have made so many hulkbusters at this point, but *oh my gosh*. This actually looks incredible in terms of movie accuracy (especially for Lego's standards) and general mech design. Easily my favourite Hulkbuster yet, and honestly one of the most complete mechs I've ever seen from Lego.

On the other hand, that Quinjet looks like knockoff Lego. Dunno what's going on there.

Me with the Ninjago wave:
Wow, a mech riding a bike! How innovative! I haven't seen that since Constraction themes like Slizers, Bionicle, Hero Factory and Star Wars!

Marvel: here's another one in the same release wave.

Are they still doing the 10 euro marvel mechs or have those gone the way of the microfighters? As in: superpacks and co-packs mostly with the occasional lone single set once a year?
Let's hope not. Hopefully these are not all of the 2022 winter wave Marvel sets. Although I fear those might start using those pre-bent joints like Ghost Rider here...

Definitely going to get the Morbius set, for his awesome figure alone!
Hard pass on the Ghost Rider mech, the Quinjet looks terrible (I much prefer 6869), and does the world really need yet another Hulkbuster?? (Answer: no)

I was looking at the Quinjet as an owner of 76126, and while I like the color scheme, I can see no real reason to pick it up. I kinda prefer the Endgame Quantum suits from the original set, although the minifigure selection is slightly better with the newer. The Jet itself feels less sleek though, the front cockpit area seems somewhat overlarge, and the body shaping feels slightly blocky across the body/sides. I do realize that the transition in the original set near the wings was abit rough. The wing shaping is better in the newer set but it omits the VTOL fans from what I can see. That's a major design point. I'm OK with the tail/engine area though. It lacks the visual presence of the previous one but seems more realistic. Then we have the pricing which is $20 more for less pieces, so I think this one is a general pass for me.

It's been a few months since Lego last launched a Hulkbuster set, it's about time we had another Hulkbuster.

"Lego: "No military"

76248:"

Eh? It's almost like the MCU isn't actually real. Who'd have thought.

It's plasma! Which we all know is in no way connected to blood whatsoever. Drink Plasma!

The quinjet looks great in my opinion, and reasonably priced. I was sure it would be upwards of £100 judging by the pictures

@jkb said:
"What does quin in quinjet mean?"

Five, bc it has 5 engines (the fifth is orizontally placed over the back cargo door canonically)

Now THAT'S a Hulkbuster!!!!

Answer me this: why do Spider-heroes insist on having cars? Aren't they much quicker zipping around the city on their webs than trying to plough through rush hour traffic down town? Is the allure of a cup holder too much for them?
That said, it's a great little car. Replace the red for more black or very very very dark grey and it's an excellent Batmobile! Almost reminiscent of the Tell Tales design.

The Hulkbuster is probably the best looking one so far, but it is not a stormtrooper, so yes, you can have to many of them..
Also, it seems a bit oversized compared to the minifigs.. a bit in the way the Iron Monger was..

Since I missed the 2012, happy with the new Quinjet... I have the sleeker Ultron one, and the proto Quinjet from Captain Marvel, but this blocky one will be welcome in the collection.

Not a fan / familiar with Morbius, but I will try to pick up the fig to add to my monster minifig collection

@Andhe:
You say that in jest, but the entire reason he was billed as “the _living_ vampire” was to circumvent the Comics Code Authority ban on depicting the undead, so they could display the valuable CCA stamp. It’s like being able to downgrade your movie rating from R to PG-13 in terms of sales potential, because parents of that era would just look for the stamp and assume anything that didn’t have it was _BAD_.

@lost_scotsman:
Why? Batmobile-envy. The better question is how?

That Quinjet is an atrocity compared to the Guardians of the Galaxy ship they did. It looks like one of those bad Mocsmarket MOCs that make a couple of changes to simplify the design of an official set so they don't get reported for trying to sell instructions of an official set.

Why is the entire body just basic bricks stuck on top, where are all the curved details on the body? Why are they using inverted roof slopes unironically? The 2012 set had a better curve shape for the wings, the angle of the cockpit has been ignored entirely. This is worse than a prototype build.
Why are the windows blue, there is one reference photo on Google that could be interpreted blue, it is simply transparent in the movie and everywhere else. The windows and the gap in the wings are improvements and those things can't be awarded towards this set designer because the Endgame Quinjet had similar elements already.
Not even the figure selection is allowed to be without glaring flaws, omitting Hawkeye and Hulk. Not that they would ever release a Quinjet in which a Hulk could fit, even though the vehicle is big enough in the movies to justify a 150$ set.

I like the Morbius set, pleased the Miles figure is different to the recent mech/Daily Bugle one so very happy to get 2 new figures with that one.

The Ghost Rider Bike Mech is completely ridiculous and overpriced but you can't not love it, it's so crazy!

Nice to get Morbius. Will change his hair though, he looks a bit old with this hairpiece. The car doesn’t interest me. I don’t really like six-wide cars. It also looks more like a DC kinda car. Something Robin would drive

So they made the Benatar, now the Quinjet, next-up the Blackbird (X-Men) with their 80’s team please

@lost_scotsman:

I think the plasma thing might have come from the animated series.
The code was changed to allow for vampires in '71 and Stan Lee said lets have Spider-Man fight a vampire. Roy Thomas suggested Dracula, but Lee said no, and so Morbius was created.
The "Living Vampire" part was to make him more 'science based' rather than supernatural so he would fit better with Spider-Man. Not sure if that was Lee's idea or not.

Finally, a hulk buster I can afford. And that looks nice too.

Fraudsters! If you were really the PPG, you'd know what colour plasma is!

Is it me or is the mech cockpit a new mold? I'm talking about "Cockpit 4 x 2 x 3 with Pin Hole, 2 Tow Balls, and 2 Clips, Item No: 27168". My son loves those pieces, but ours from the old sets always had the clips break off at the bottom

Dark pink for Blossom, medium azure for Bubbles, and bright green for the other one. Robocop."

"The City of Townsville is under attack by Morbius - the Living Vampire! Who can stop this villain and and his end bloodlust?!?"

Def will be picking up the Qunijet. and for the first time ever i dont hate that hulkbuster, so might actually pick that up too.

I love the Hulk Buster and the Quinjet however I think the Quinjet's front could have been improved

Whew, I was worried we weren't going to get a Hulkbuster this wave.

It actually looks decent, but I think I'll have to pass. The Quinjet will likely be purchased and maybe Morbius because it's a new character I don't have.

I like the Quinjet and the Hulkbuster. Would be funny if this one fits inside the UCS one. Not that I'm planning on buying the big one.

In two weeks time I'll be allowed to tell you it comes with two stickers sheets, one Avengers, one SHIELD. If you can wait I'll tell you then. :)

It actually has a couple pictures on the set page that show both stickers as options. It's awesome, and thanks for all you do!

The Hulkbuster for Lego Marvel is the Luke’s Landspeeder of Lego Star Wars. XD

The Quinjet looks really good I must say. Very sleek. I don’t buy any Marvel sets, but that is one I really like and would be tempted to have. Good figures too.

Putting a mech on a motorbike is certainly an interesting solution to the old "oversized brick-built bike" problem.

Its also very funny how much better this hulkbuster is than the recent UCS one

Anyway really solid wave IMO, best the line has had in a long time

All sets meh, but the Hulk suit with the 'classic' looking Hulk is nice, same with the Morbius and Ghost Rider figure. Will need to wait for those sets to be on sale, or just bite the bullet and buy the figs on bricklink.

AT LEAST this one is better than the recent D2C atrocity.

Also, IT'S MORBIN' TIME. Set looks great unironically. The Quinjet also looks amazing, finally Lego realized that 76193 was fantastic and made another set in the same veins of it."

I agree! 76193 is a really good set, although I would have preferred the Milano over the Guardian's newer ship. It's just a cooler looking ship in my opinion, and it's been a while since we've gotten a rendition.

Yes, yes I do, but its likeness to some military vehicles (and the Pelican from Halo which is military based) is striking, especially since its the first one that's extremely detailed and is the color gray...

"

Why in the world would Hulk need a Mech?

Ok…I’m rolling with it I guess…

I’ve yet to buy any quinjet model. Is this the best one so far or is there a UCS equivalent?
