LEGO has officially released images of its exclusive new range of Minifigures, marking the third and concluding series of the year. This second LEGO Marvel CMF series, identified as set 71039, builds upon the success of the initial series launched years ago. Slated for release on September 1, 2023, the series brings together a fresh assortment of 12 MCU characters.
Here are the upcoming Minifigures:
- Goliath: Featured in the What If…? series, Goliath comes with a helmet and an Ant-Man micro-figure.
- Kate Bishop: She boasts a bow, a quiver, a bullseye, and Lucky the Dog, possibly a new dog piece.
- Hawkeye: This Minifigure brings a bow, a quiver, and a unique owl mold; a printed hearing aid on his head is an additional detail.
- Moon Knight: Equipped with crescent darts, a scarab print on a 1×1 round tile, and a white cape. Moon Knight features the white hood piece from the rogue Minifigure in 71013 Series 16.
- Mr Knight: He holds silver sticks made from the lightsaber piece in silver, a printed 1×2 brick depicting Gus the Fish, and the tape recorder from Moon Knight’s first episode.
- She-Hulk: Carrying a cellphone printed on a 1×2 tile and a 2×3 tile with a law firm ad.
- Werewolf by Night: Comes with a 1×2 circular tile featuring the bloodstone and sports a brown and green color scheme.
- Agatha Harkness: Under the Wandavision franchise, Agatha possesses the Darkhold, a pair of purple power blast pieces, and a purple cape.
- Wolverine (X-Men 97): Outfitted with a basic mask, hair, claws, and a buildable glass case containing a regular sentinel head.
- Storm (X-Men 97): Storm features lightning pieces, a white pauldron, and a matching white cape.
- Beast (X-Men 97): Beast holds a new hairpiece, similar to Wolverine’s but in blue, and a yellow mug with an X on it.
- Echo: This Minifigure, based on Echo’s standalone show, comes with a new super detailed LEGO mold and her accessory sticks.
This series, 71039 Marvel Studios Series 2, succeeds 71038, which celebrated Disney’s 100th anniversary and was accompanied by various other sets throughout the year. What’s new with this series is that it will be the first LEGO Minifigure Series to transition from the traditional blind bags to boxed packaging. The boxes, smaller than the LEGO Super Mario Character Pack Boxes, might challenge fans’ ability to feel for specific Minifigures. The potential impact on sales remains unknown, and LEGO has yet to reveal whether it will uphold this packaging change despite fan reactions.
