LEGO Marvel: Mary Jane and Powerman on eBay

The photos are bad, but since that's all we have right now, we're happy with it: eBay seller way ahead of its time released two minifigs from the LEGO marvel Super Heroes sets in 2014.

On the left, Mary Jane in a version very close to the one seen in the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video game and which will be delivered in the set 76016 Rescue of the Spider-Heli (A visual of the box is online on pricevortex.com).

On the right, Power Man (Luke Cage), also faithful to his virtual representation, which will be delivered in the same set.

The seller has obviously reversed the legs of the two minifigs based on the virtual versions.

If you can't wait to get them, eBay is where it's at (Click here).

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes character cards LEGO Marvel Super Heroes character cards LEGO Marvel Super Heroes character cards

If you are on facebook and you "like" the dedicated page (UK version) at the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes game, you have noticed that the buzz is not about to fall with this new initiative of the community managers.

Cards of the characters in the game, of which I gave you three examples above, will be published regularly, but on one condition: Each card must be shared at least 50 times for the next to be revealed.

There are a total of 21 cards to discover before a "huge"lot is put into play on the facebook page (A Hulk maxifig?).

No indication of what it really is, and I think the draw will be for UK fans anyway ...

In the meantime, you can still take advantage of these "Character Cards", that will occupy you five minutes.

Hulk 2014?

View on Eurobricks, this photo presenting two versions of Hulk side by side: On the right, the one released in 2012 in the set 6868 Hulk's Helicarrier Breakout and on the left a never-before-seen version dressed in purple and a different facial expression that could be the 2014 model of the character, announced in set 76018 alongside Thor and possibly MODOK, all in some sort of lab (See this article).

It is a Chinese member of the forum (rashaun) who was able to acquire this figurine on Taobao.com, Chinese equivalent of eBay, and it would appear to be an official LEGO product because the minifigure is well marked "2011 LEGO Group". To check...

LEGO Marvel Guardians of the Galaxy

A little nod to the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise in episode 1 (4:28) of the animated miniseries LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: Maximum Overload (See below) which I hope will sooner or later end up in a Blu-ray version accompanied by an exclusive minifigure ...

Note that, according to the latest rumors in vogue, LEGO should market at least one set based on the film expected for summer 2014.
