Today we take a quick tour of the content of the LEGO Marvel set 76313 Marvel Logo & Minifigures, a box of 931 pieces currently available for pre-order on the official online store and which will be available from January 1, 2025 at the public price of €99,99.

As you already know if you follow, LEGO has long understood that it also needs to target customers who are fond of purely lifestyle outside of its usual clientele. All ranges are more or less entitled to products whose sole purpose is to end their career on the corner of a shelf and the LEGO Marvel universe is no exception to this trend.

The manufacturer is probably betting on the fact that those who do not buy the multiple playsets that invade the shelves will perhaps be tempted by this product which simply highlights the logo of the license, but based on bricks.

LEGO wouldn't be the toy manufacturer we know if the most basic products didn't include a few features, just to highlight the brand's concept and the know-how of its designers. Here, the red box flanked by its white letters includes a mechanism that reveals the different characters fixed on their respective supports.

Be careful, this synchronized mechanism does not retract by itself: the figurines are deployed by pushing the discreet buttons on the top of the construction, then pushed at the back to reveal Iron Man, but in the end you have to put everything away manually and put back in place the sections that are ejected during manipulation. Nothing serious, I think that beyond a few attempts to impress your friends, you will quickly choose to display the thing completely closed or in the "visible minifigs" version and that the object will then remain as is.

The construction is quickly assembled, even if it will be necessary to remain vigilant during the construction of the integrated mechanism and to regularly test the correct deployment of the supports so as not to have to come back to it later. The different colors used for the Technic beams present help to find your way around and not to make a mistake in the connection point. The installation of the letters on the front face is a fairly satisfactory process, they take shape gradually and the result seems to me simply perfect if we compare the LEGO version with the logo that we know. A few studs remain visible on the surface, the ratio with the smooth surfaces of the different letters is very correct.

LEGO provides five Avengers in this box, we will remember the absence of Hawkeye, and the minifigs are all new at least by the torso with globally very successful pad printing. Collectors of figurines who will not care about the associated construction will therefore still have something to fill their Ribba frames a little more with the endowment of this set.

The most observant will have noticed that Iron Man is wearing his armor here in the "intact" Mark VI version with the legs already seen in the LEGO Marvel set. 76269 Avengers Tower under the torso of the damaged version of the outfit. Captain America is clearly in the damaged version here. First avenger With a very nice torso and her usual shield, Black Widow reuses the legs already seen on the same character but also on Hawkeye or Falcon. Hulk goes to theOlive Green In this box, Thor benefits from a nice torso which is also new.

Regarding the public price of this box, and even if we all know here that we will end up finding it for much less elsewhere than at LEGO, I find the price excessive for a derivative product which does not necessarily reflect the €100 requested.

It's a bit like a Nike t-shirt sold for €60, you pay the high price to display a simple advertisement for the brand via its logo and I've always had a bit of trouble with the concept of a sandwich man who pays instead of being paid. I have a bit of the same feeling here even if I salute the creativity at work to create a visually rather convincing trompe-l'oeil, all accompanied by a slightly rustic functionality but which has the merit of adding a bit of spice to the assembly process of the thing.

Today we take a very quick tour of the content of the LEGO Marvel set 76296 New Captain America Construction Figure, a box of 359 pieces available on the official online store at the public price of €34,99 since December 1, 2024 and also offered since the same date at a more reasonable price by Amazon.

With references 76292 Captain America vs. Red Hulk Battle et 40668 Captain America & Red Hulk, this set is one of three products derived from the film Captain America: Brave New World which is now slated for a theatrical release in February 2025 after being pushed back twice. It features Sam Wilson in the outfit we'll see on screen, but we have to make do with the character wearing his helmet and LEGO doesn't provide Anthony Mackie's "real" face.

The structure of the figurine is similar to those of the different characters in the same format that already flood the LEGO Marvel range and this one is part of the references that are delivered with their accessories as are already Green Goblin and Spider-Man in the sets 76284 Green Goblin Construction Figure (37.99 €) and 76298 Iron Spider-Man Construction Figure (34.99 €).

Here, Captain America is equipped with his wings deployed in the form of flexible plastic elements held by a structure composed of Technic parts. It is rather elegant, from the front we only notice the attachment points of the two wings. Sam Wilson is also accompanied by his Redwing drone, the machine is fixed on the back of the figurine but can be easily detached.

LEGO could have offered us wings made from parts, but the appearance of these appendages would probably have been less graphically accomplished. I can't decide between the two possibilities, even if I always prefer to have a maximum of real LEGO parts rather than shortcuts made of fabric or soft plastic.

The two wings are fixed but they can be oriented by unhooking the two parts of the structure to, for example, put the figurine in a flying position. This is a possibility that will not bring much to those who will simply display the character on their shelves but which should please the youngest

The product also suffers from the usual problems of these figurines: the joints and other visible pins are rarely in the right color and therefore stand out. The red pin that remains visible in the center of the shield is a bit of a stain, the black ones visible on the front of the wings are far from discreet.

For once, the head of the figurine seems acceptable to me with the piece that sometimes gives a slightly strange appearance to some of the models offered by LEGO. Everything is pad printed, we do not stick stickers on this figurine and it is all the better to allow it to withstand intensive handling.

In short, this figurine is intended for the youngest but will undoubtedly also find its audience among fans ofAction Figures to collect is not the worst of the range, it has wingspan with its nicely printed wings and the whole thing seems very correct to me even if the public price seems a little excessive. On sale elsewhere than at LEGO, why not.

Today we get thanks to the Polish brand mediaexpert the visuals of six new features expected in the LEGO Marvel range from January 1, 2025, including a reproduction of the franchise logo that I find very successful. For the rest, we will especially remember the arrival in the range of a first set based on the film Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
