I quite like that they made this a micro-scale model, which I feel adds a lot of fun and playability to the set. Speaking of display, I have no idea how I’m going to afford or display this in my home, but I will find a way. The Helicarrier is a huge part of the Avengers and Captain America movies, so it’ll be great to have this behemoth on display. That said, the set looks impressively awesome and should be a must-buy for any LEGO Super Heroes fan. It looks like there’s going to be a lot of Technic influences in the set, which isn’t usually my cup of tea. I would be pleasantly surprised if this set is priced below $500 here.Īs with all major LEGO releases, we also get an informative video by designer Marcos Bessa who shares some additional insight into the set. The Australian price for the UCS Helicarrier is still unknown but it will cost $350 in the United States. That should also be around the same time the new Avengers sets go on sale as well. If the rumours are right, we’re looking at a mid-February release for VIP Members, and the general release date will be in March. Upon seeing the official images, it’s safe to say that I want it. When a grainy tiny picture of this set leaked yesterday, I was initially quite apprehensive as I thought it looked quite small. It was great waking up to the news and gorging my eyes on the beautiful official photos of this gargantuan set.Ĭonstructed out of 2996 pieces, this set represents the most ambitious Marvel Super Heroes set yet and should tie in well with the upcoming Avengers 2. The LEGO Group has officially announced the first UCS (Ultimate Collector Series) Marvel Super Heroes Set – the S.H.I.E.L.D.
