A glaring omission is printing on his arms and legs. It’s a shame that the great torso printing doesn’t extend across his entire body.
Build an epic hero-vs.-hero battle with a supersonic Quinjet with hidden stud-shooters and folding wings, an “exploding” air traffic control tower, the gigantic Giant-Man, and more! LEGO have released 3 Captain America: Civil War sets to coincide with the movie and with the battle royale premise that splits Marvel Cinematic Universe characters into two opposing sides (#TeamCap vs #TeamIronMan), fans end up being the winning side as the sets are filled with some of the most popular MCU characters. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes building toys are compatible with all LEGO construction sets for creative building I’m really pleased with his choice of weaponry, we get an uzi machine gun which hasn’t shown up in too many sets and looks really realistic. Hurray for no stud blasters or kiddy-looking guns. The 4×4 is 6 studs wide which means there’s not enough space for a passenger to sit next to Cap. I’m not a fan of the spring loaded missile jutting out into the passenger area. You’re meant to nudge it downwards to fire it, but it just looks like it doesn’t belong there and I swiftly removed the missile after I was finished with photography.The Winter Soldier comes with a gorgeous red motorcycle. The red top and the silvery frame is a new combination that’s never seen before and just looks incredible.
The printing on his torso is crisp and sharp, and combines futuristic armour definition, with an old school leather belt and shoulder straps. I’m a little disappointed that we won’t get any leg printing, which I’ve come to expect in licensed sets minifigures. The plain blue legs don’t detract from the overall look, but I’m all for details printed across the minifig – the technology is there after all. Here’s a look at the underside of the jet. Again, nothing flashy and this is where they’ve (very cleverly) hidden two stud blasters. I love that they’ve concealed it from plain sight as stud-blasters usually look quite awkward and give LEGO models a kiddy feel. Long-time Marvel fans will no doubt be very happy to add him to the ever-growing universe of Marvel Super Heroes minifigures and will most likely make this one of the most popular sets this year for collectors. At long last, Marvel Civil War sets have begun popping up around the world. The heavily anticipated movie has Captain America going head to head against Iron Man and I’m extremely excited to watch it when it comes out in cinemas next month. The Winter Soldier is a fantastic variant of his previous version but I can’t quite say the same of Cap, who has lazy recycled torso. It’s appeared in like what, 6 sets and counting so far which is truly disappointing since LEGO has no problem giving us so many different versions of Iron Man. Why can’t Cap get the same treatment? Some battle-scarred attire would’ve been a great upgrade but instead, we get the exact same torso from 2015.This Captain America minifigure perfectly captures Steve Roger’s charismatic and nice guy look, complete with the new wavy hairstyle in nougat that first made its appearance on Superman in 76044 Clash of the Heroes. This set completely and overwhelmingly satisfied me. It’s one of those rare LEGO sets where you can tell that the designers went above and beyond to deliver an amazing building and play experience that is just one step above most other sets on the market right now. Air traffic control tower is over 10” high, 9” wide, and 3” deep. Quinjet is over 3” high, 7” long, 12” wide in flight mode, and 7” wide in landing mode I’m a big fan of Captain America’s torso as it does a great job replicating Steve Roger’s suit from the movie but was slightly miffed that we don’t get an updated version from the 2015 versions. I’m not a fan of LEGO reusing torsos and body parts from previous sets.
Great Deal
