Ooh, nearly!

It needed the ability to wear it, or retract the claws...

Nice for the Marvel fans I guess, but for me the set must have included real Adamantium before I would have been interested ;P

Can we have Dr Strangelove's black glove? Or just an iron fist for all the up and coming bricktators out there?

LOL These sets are so stupid. Who wants to buy a giant hand? I can't see this coming in handy for anything.

The Infinity Gauntlets made sense, but this?
Even the description "Marvel Superheroes Glove collection," sounds goofy at best.

A back scratcher maybe? (But probably too fragile for that.)

I guess they have a decent design for a hand so are using it?
4th time we have seen something like this,
The Infinity Gauntlet.
Nano Gauntlet.
Black Panther
And now this...

Infinity and Nano were at least interesting designs. This is just blue with some claws stuck on

You've never wanted to stab three small objects simultaneously?

Well. Clearly you and I live very different lives.

Nowhere near as impressive as the Infinity Gauntlets and also disappointing that this stuff isn't getting leaked as much as it used to.

Good for backhanded compliments, the kind that cut the most deeply.

I will say though, this is dumb and I love it.

This set is handist. Why are companies allowed discriminate against left handed people? I demand they release a left handed version which I won’t buy either or instructions for the left hand version which I won’t build.

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Wolverine's claws are coming to town

Thanos and the MCU can get stuffed, you can't beat Bunnings gardening glove, only $17.99!

I mean…presumably it’s just a matter of modifying the build so the thumb is on the other side?

Adamantium??

Don't drink, don't smoke, what do you do?

I think you mean sinistrophobic.

Cough! Sorry, I'm allergic to pointless.

The reference pictures on the back of the box show the other hand

Does LEGO know that it was called ‘X-Men: The Animated Series’ and not ‘Wolverine: The Animated Series’?

I mean, would you believe we still haven’t got Professor X, Rogue, Gambit, Beast, Nightcrawler yet?

Like, when you open 3 jars of different olives, and want all three at once.

Like, when there's a really good cheese plate and you want all three at once.

Like when you're camping and you really want to have a three marshmallow s'more.

Like.... (I can do this all day!).

Funny, I kind of like it. :D

To be honest, I like the box better than the build.

Those lifestyle photos are a bit of a stretch.

It looks rather bland, especially compared to earlier glove sets. Sure, such is the source material, but can't say I like how it looks. Also the blades look way too thick. Now I don't think it would have worked better with some sideways construction, this is just the limits of what can be done with Lego.

While I doubt it was intended, I do actually like the grey pieces behind the drum lacquered tiles, as it gives those blades the impression of some profile. The impression of an edge without having one. It also does look quite good from the back, just a shame Lego doesn't make the thin inverted tiles ("mini baseplates") like Cobi has.

But most of all: How awesome would it indeed have been if the blades could retract? Dare I say such a feature alone would elevate this from a meh set to absolutely awesome?

Oh, and I'll keep my comments on the pricing until that is confirmed....but I certainly don't have my hopes up.

It looks like the fingers can be extended out of the fist. You can use is to do a really exuberant wave- 'jazz hands!'

I might keep the left and right one retracted and use the remaining pose to show the attitude I feel towards TLG in recent years.
At least that middle finger/claw is Adamantium...
;-p

Well would you look at that, they finally made a wolverine product with more or less proportionate claws.

Friggin monkey's paw'd us on that one. Though I guess someone must be buying these since they keep making them

Up until now, I assumed it was just a glove display, like the SW Helmets. But if the claws are included in the one, it must mean they chopped off the hand xD
It'd be funny it they added some red bricks underneath to illustrate that :D

Honestly with some of their set choices lately, it feels like LEGO is becomming desperate for good ideas.

Even with Wolverine being my favourite of the X-men, this isn't a set I'm interested in in the slightest.

Two little bowls full of parts... other parts scattered on the table... What? Why? Who builds that way?

The entire DC universe the last few years, glaring at Batman:
First time?

I do also wonder how often those lifestyle pics don't even show an actual building phase of the set according to the instructions, but just some random incomplete model. Often you do even see some completed sub-assemblies next to it, how often does Lego let you build those and not right away attach to the model?

This one at least seems somewhat believable, though I bet this dude is looking at Lego for the very first time since his childhood.

This is a fairly goofy and, for the value you get, very much overpriced set imo. A movie-accurate version could have been an AFOL Collector's Edition entry but this one is just very disappointing. Shaping is too simplistic, colors are boring. For kids, it's too expensive without play value, for AFOLs, it's not a nice home decoration.

I'm not big-up on Marvel Universe lore, but I seem to recall that cutting off any part of the Wolverine is tricky, at best.

Do you think *Marvel* knows that it's called 'X-men: The Animated Series' and not 'Wolverine: The Animated Series'? ;-)
There's a reason there's a trope called "Wolverine Publicity" - Marvel famously put Wolverine on the cover of several comic books that didn't (or barely) featured him.

I bet they are made from plastic.

What's next, Flash's foot?

Given they must have cut off Wolverine's hand for this, is the rest of him going to regenerate a hand or are you going to end up with a life-size Wolverine growing out of this?

With Cap's shield, Mjolnir, Iron Man's helmet, and now Wolverine's glove, we're that much closer to being able to make our own Lego Maestro with fallen hero armor.

(Fairly deep cut--just Google "Maestro with fallen hero armor," or if you really want to depress yourself, "Rick Jones' trophy room.")

Real Adamantium might be cheaper!

Next up,eye of aggamoto from doctor strange.

Seriously, after 76215 constantly on sale, which department thought that it would be a good idea to keep peddling these severed parts of superheroes?

The only set that is due to be made in this collection is Luke Skywalker's cut hand, to join his previously released lightsaber.

You won't like the rest of sets in this theme then, I hear we're getting Freddy Krueger and Edward Scissorhands next.

Looks like I'm in the minority here but I quite like this and will probably buy it

"It’s so small…."

That's what she said ;-)

The comments on this are truly top tier, maybe some of the best I have ever seen. Way to go everybody, way to go.

This set on the other hand...just...what is Lego actually doing. Just make us a set with the X-Men minifigs! It would please kids and adults alike. I don't need anymore brick built HANDS.

Wait, is there even another hand set again?

No way, man. Just no way.

Next set will be Hulk's pants.

Comes with alternative instructions to build smaller Bruce Banner's pants!

Isn't all Lego intended for display pointless then?"

Yeah, now I'm wondering what the deal is with my Lego Star Wars art and the floral collections we've started getting.

Oh well. At least my Mjolnir model could reasonably be used on a home invader. Once.

If they sent that to me for free I probably wouldn’t build it. Who is green lighting all these terrible ideas for Marvel sets?

That's a lot of money for just a hand full of bricks.
If you really feel like you need this, I recommend to wait a bit and buy it second hand.
I can't grasp the idea behind this. It leaves me scratching my head.

Would've been better as crossed hands with the claws.
Set up like the Black Panther's busts hands. Crossed over.
Not as wide/spread-out like the Panther's hands, but tighter in so the claws would be angled upward more.
Then a big X or X-Men logo centered behind it.

Next up: Nick Fury's eye patch.

Lego seems to have hit rock bottom with this Marvel set.

"I don’t really get it. Isn’t the whole point of them that they’d be sorta impossible to cut off and display?"

Which is why this is actually Mystique's hand from her fight with Wolverine in the 2000 X-Men movie.

The only way I'd get this is with a five finger discount.
