To come to this conclusion, let’s first take a look at some of the current UCS sets and the LEGO Avengers Tower sets. This will show you why the I think the Avenger’s tower has been overlooked.

Current Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) LEGO Sets

We won’t list all of them here, but let’s consider some of the current UCS sets and see how the Avengers Tower might fit in.

In fact, except for the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 76042 The SHIELD Helicarrier, there have been no other LEGO Marvel sets to receive the UCS treatment. Of note, this set made our list of the Top 10 Best LEGO Black Widow Sets.

Interestingly, most of the current Ultimate Collector Series LEGO Sets are from the Star Wars theme. These sets are truly impressive, such as the LEGO Star Wars 75313 UCS AT-AT. And who can forget about the best LEGO Millennium Falcons, LEGO Star Wars 75192 Millennium Falcon Ultimate Collector Series (2nd edition) and LEGO Star Wars 10179 Ultimate Collector’s Millennium Falcon. Finally, we also have to mention the LEGO Star Wars 75252 UCS Imperial Star Destroyer. All four of these sets make the list of the largest LEGO sets ever and it’s not too surprising to see why. These UCS sets are epic in size and scale, and are awe-inspiring for any fans of the franchise.

Considering the popularity of the Marvel brand, you would think that the LEGO Group would consider this theme for more UCS sets. The LEGO 76178 Marvel Spider-Man Daily Bugle set comes close, but it is not an official UCS set. Furthermore, the Avengers Tower is an iconic backdrop for many moments in the Marvel films. Now, lets take a look at the current state of the Avengers Towers.

Current LEGO Avengers Tower Sets

Next, we will evaluate each tower in the order they were released.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 76038 Attack on Avengers Tower

This set was released in 2015. The Avengers Tower suddenly comes under attack from the inside by Ultron while the Heroes are enjoying a celebration. In the lab, Evil Ultron Mark 1 has assembled and is bursting through the glass. Assist Thor and Iron Man in taking down Ultron Mark 1 and his two Iron Legion henchmen. Plan in the JARVIS control room. And in the sick bay, tend to injured Super Heroes. An Iron Legion is blowing out the ground-floor robot bay’s doors and windows. The Loki Scepter is missing from the analysis lab. Thor should be used to pursue him as you use the covert drone and stud shooters to take aim from the tower’s roof. Ultron Mark 1 must be stopped, and you must reclaim the Scepter. This build measures over 14 inches high, 7 inches wide, and 4 inches deep.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 40334 Avengers Tower

We have to wait all the way until 2019 for this next set. This tower was part of a gift with purchase (GWP) promotion that ran from 04/19/2019 to 05/02/2019. A qualifying purchase of $75 or more in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes products was required. This LEGO Avengers Tower commemorates Marvel Studios’ tenth anniversary. It includes a unique Iron Man collector minifigure and has 211 pieces. To be fair, this set is a gift with purchase so it is not meant to be that large. And the best part about the set is the collectable minifigure. However, this set does show that there is still untapped potential to create a really amazing Avengers Tower.

LEGO Marvel 76166 Avengers Tower Battle

In the following year, this set was then released in 2020. This set has superhero fight action both inside and outside the 5-story Marvel Avengers Tower. Iron Man and Black Widow face up against the diabolical Red Skull and his A.I.M. Agents in an epic battle. The building opens up to allow simple access to seven fantastic chambers where kids may have infinite imaginative adventures: blow out the energy core, bust open the jail, collapse the balcony, or launch a rocket strike. This famous New York tower is brimming with role-playing opportunities involving legendary Marvel heroes. At 17 inches tall, there are a variety of intriguing elements to explore. For more information and photos, check out our full review of this set here.

LEGO Marvel 76196 The Avengers Advent Calendar 2021 (Day 19) – Avengers Tower

This final build was released as part of the 2021 LEGO Marvel Advent Calendar. You can see the tower in the front row, the second from the left. Behind each of the calendar’s 24 doors are daily goodies for kids to discover during the month of December leading up to Christmas. There are 7 minifigures – Iron Man, Spider-Man, Black Widow, Thor, Captain Marvel, Thanos, and Nick Fury. Additionally, there are intriguing products and wonderful Marvel Universe accessories that kids will enjoy, like as a Quinjet, Helicarrier, Spider-Man drone, Avengers Tower, and more. As the big day comes, kids may mix and match their presents to create a limitless number of amazing Super Hero experiences. You can use this amazing assortment of construction toys with other LEGO Marvel playsets to provide imaginative play opportunities that last all year.

Conclusion

As you can see, the LEGO Avengers Tower still has a lot of untapped potential. The best way to make it into a truly great set is by providing it with the Ultimate Collector Series label. This would allow it to achieve the appropriate size, scale, minifigures, playability, and uniqueness that this iconic Marvel building deserves.

With Christmas fast approaching, the 2021 LEGO Advent Calendars are extremely hard to find in stock. In fact, you must purchase them by December 1st to be on time for the start of the Christmas countdown! We predicted that these sets would become harder and harder to find as we approached the beginning of December.

All of the 2021 LEGO Advent Calendars are sold out on the online LEGO shop. It is going to be a challenge to find these sets on time this year, but we have a few ideas.

Before we begin, let’s list all of the calendars with their set numbers to make it easier for your search:

• 76196 LEGO Marvel The Avengers Advent Calendar
• 75307 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar
• 76390 LEGO Harry Potter Advent Calendar
• 60303 LEGO City Advent Calendar
• 41690 LEGO Friends Advent Calendar

The Brick Parent’s LEGO Set Analysis Tool

Next, the easiest way to quickly search the most popular stores to see if these sets are in stock is to use The Brick Parent’s LEGO Set Analysis Tool. Simply copy and paste the LEGO set number into the box and click “Analyze.” Scroll down a bit, and under the “Shopping” heading you will see a list of the most popular stores. Just click the button of the store you are interested in, or click “Open All” to view all of the stores. Make sure your popup blocker is disabled for this feature to work correctly.

Then, check the browser tabs for each store to see where the LEGO set is in stock! Using this tool, I was able to quickly find some of the LEGO Advent Calendars in stock at Walmart and Target, and with Black Friday discounts too!

You can use this tool with any LEGO set number! In addition to quickly and easily finding shopping information, you can also use it to find general facts and details about each set as well as search for free LEGO instructions.

These stores are not a part of the LEGO Set Analysis Tool, but you can also search for the Advent Calendars at Costco and Barnes & Noble. Good luck with your search!

Now, let’s quickly review the 2021 LEGO Advent Calendars so you can make sure you get the one you want!

LEGO 76196 Marvel The Avengers Advent Calendar

A new Spider-Man: No Way Home movie trailer has been released. We take a look to see what new details we can learn about the upcoming film and how it compares to the Spider-Man: No Way Home LEGO sets that are already available.

First, let’s list the LEGO sets from the film. There are currently three. We will review in more detail after the trailer.

• 76184 LEGO Marvel Spider-Man vs. Mysterio’s Drone Attack
• 76185 LEGO Marvel Spider-Man at the Sanctum Workshop
• 76195 LEGO Marvel Spider-Man’s Drone Duel

Now, lets watch the new official trailer! Keep an eye out for Spider-Man’s suits and any villains that appear.

Next, let’s take a look at each of the LEGO sets inspired by the Spider-Man: No Way Home film.

LEGO Marvel 76184 Spider-Man vs. Mysterio’s Drone Attack

Right off the bat, this set is confusing because the box says it is inspired by the Spider-Man: Far From Home film. If you have seen the film, the set does seem consistent with that. However, this LEGO set is classified in the Spider-Man: No Way Home subtheme. Maybe Mysterio will make an appearance in the new film? Doubtful, but we will have to wait and see. There is no evidence of this in the new trailer. It’s more likely this set doesn’t have anything to do with the new film.

LEGO Marvel 76185 Spider-Man at the Sanctum Workshop

We can tell from the trailer that Peter Parker does visit the Sanctum Sanctorum. Consistent with that, this LEGO set features Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Workshop. The villain in this set is called a “giant bug monster,” but it does remind me a lot of Scorpion. Even though we don’t see Scorpion in the trailer, I think there is a strong chance he will appear in the film. The LEGO minifigures that come with this set are Spider-Man, Mary-Jane (MJ), Wong, and Doctor Strange. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say all of these characters will be in the film.

LEGO Marvel 76195 Spider-Man’s Drone Duel

This is the most interesting set of the three. It says on the box that this LEGO set is inspired by the Spider-Man: Homecoming film. However, we can definitely tell that Spider-Man’s black and gold suit makes an appearance in the trailer and in this LEGO set.

I suspect it makes reference to Homecoming for two reasons: due to the presence of Vulture and the drone. Spider-Man Homecoming did have a Spider-Drone, however, it was autonomous and much smaller. Furthermore, the drone in this set is much larger, Spider-Man is driving it, and it has the black and gold color scheme similar to his armor in the trailer. Another interesting part of this LEGO set is Spider-Man’s gold webs. Given the five villains seen in the new trailer (Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin, Electro, Sandman and The Lizard), it is possible we will see more. Maybe even the Vulture will make an appearance. This is the Multiverse after all!

It is a lot of fun to compare the LEGO set versions to the actual films! We will have to wait and see if any of our predictions come true. For more LEGO set movie comparisons, check out our other posts.

Four new LEGO Marvel sets for 2022 have been revealed on the LEGO Shop online. Three of them are Mech Armor sets and the fourth is a character figure. Both of these types of sets are widely popular and are welcome additions to the LEGO Marvel lineup. They will all be released on New Year’s Day, January 1, 2022.

These new LEGO mech sets are in the same style as ones previously released. These include LEGO 76168 Captain America Mech Armor, LEGO 76169 Thor Mech Armor, and LEGO 76171 Miles Morales Mech Armor. Furthermore, you can find all three boxed together in LEGO Marvel 66671 Mech Armor Collection 3 in 1 exclusively at Costco.

These four new LEGO Marvel sets for 2022 are:

• 76202 LEGO Marvel Wolverine Mech Armor
• 76203 LEGO Marvel Iron Man Mech Armor
• 76204 LEGO Marvel Black Panther Mech Armor
• 76206 LEGO Marvel Iron Man Figure

Let’s take a look at the details of each of these sets!

LEGO Marvel 76202 Wolverine Mech Armor

Fans of Marvel and the X-Men will love this set. Wolverine’s iconic claws are attached to this mech’s hands. You can move and adjust the arms and legs of this Super-Hero mech.

The most exciting feature of this set is that it has the Wolverine minifigure. This is a very popular and hard-to-find minifig, so it will be great to be able to get one easily in this new set!

LEGO Marvel 76203 Iron Man Mech Armor

Take Iron Man to new heights with this epic Iron Man Mech. My favorite feature is the large energy shield. Iron Man’s mech also comes with a stud shooter, and full moveable arms and legs.

The set includes a unique Iron Man minifigure. Check out his gold armor!

LEGO Marvel 76204 Black Panther Mech Armor

Fans of Black Panther will love this super cool mech. Blank Panther’s claws become supersized with this huge Super-Hero warrior. Use this mech to replay iconic scenes from the Avengers films, or create your own with the other mechs also!

This mech comes with a shield to protect Blank Panther. A Black Panther minifigure with his claws also comes with the set.

LEGO Marvel 76206 Iron Man Figure

Moving away from the mech armor sets, this last set is a LEGO Iron Man buildable figure. At over 9 in. tall this is truly an impressive set. It is based on Iron Man from Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Additionally, this set includes a button-operated Light Brick to light up the arc reactor in Iron Man’s chest. A detailed information plate also comes with the build which makes a great display piece.

We are so excited for these new LEGO Marvel sets coming in 2022! Which one is your favorite? Let us know in the comments!

Sometimes even with dozens of ways to find LEGO sets, you can still have trouble finding the one that you want. I was recently lamenting how the LEGO Marvel collectable minifigures were still sold out on the online LEGO Shop. Nevertheless, no sooner than the same day that I posted that article, I found a whole bunch of the LEGO 71031 Marvel minifigures in stock at Barnes & Noble!

I wasn’t even planning on looking for these here. In fact, when I have been in the store many times before they did not have them. They will likely sell out fast! One of my habits is to always check the LEGO section of whatever store I am in to see what I might find.

Check them out here. There were definitely over 12 packs in the box. However, as I have stated before, buying them individually doesn’t fit my strategy to collect them all. Alas, there are no 6 packs to be found.

This is just another example showing you may never know what you might find in stock at your local stores. I am still holding out for the 6 packs to come back in stock online.

Barnes & Noble is a great place to find LEGO sets, including LEGO Marvel and LEGO Star Wars. They still have the 2021 LEGO Advent Calendars in stock also. Check out your local store to see what hard to find sets they might have. Swing back by here and let us know what you find in the comments!

I have yet to be able to find the LEGO Minifigures Marvel Studios in stock! So, I set out to see if I could find them anywhere. My goal is to be able to collect all 12 minifigures.

The LEGO collectable minifigures are sold in two different ways: a 6 pack and individual packs. Therefore, there are two main ways of trying to collect them. You could buy 12 (or more) individual packs to see which minifigs you get, or you could by at least two 6 packs. There are two different kinds of minifigure 6 packs, one with six different minifigs each. So, you have a 50/50 chance of getting a different 6 pack to be able to collect all 12 minifigures.

In my opinion, the best way to collect all 12 would be to buy the 6 packs. Hopefully, I would get two different ones and then have all 12 right away! I ran into a couple of individual packs in Walgreens a few weeks ago, but since this doesn’t fit into my collection strategy I didn’t buy them.

I haven’t had much luck finding the 6 packs in stock. Both the individual and 6 packs are still sold out on the LEGO Shop online.

LEGO Set Analysis Tool

A really great way to quickly shop the most popular stores is to use our LEGO Set Analysis Tool. All you need to do is to plug in the set number and with the click of a button you can see if a set is in stock!

The LEGO Minifigures Marvel Studios set numbers are:

• 66678 – LEGO Marvel Studios Minifigure 6 Pack
• 71031 – LEGO Marvel Studios Minifigure Individual Pack

Plug the set numbers in one at a time into our analysis tool. You can open one or all of the most popular shopping websites. Make sure your popup blocker is disabled for it to work correctly.

Using this tool, I was able to quickly find the individual minifig packs in stock at Walmart, and the 6 pack in stock at Target!
