Earlier today, we revealed the official images for the LEGO Creator Detective’s Office (10246) and there was something interesting in the designer video. Last month, we exclusively reported that there could be a LEGO Marvel Super Heroes UCS Avengers Helicarrier coming in 2015. In the new video, inside the letter G, it looks like Marcos Bessa is doing a designer video for the set. In the image, you can kind of see the Avengers Helicarrier and a small Quinjet right above the landing platform. It looks like LEGO is giving out clues that the set will be coming next year.
Thanks to everyone who emailed in about it and the keen eyes in the Brickset Forum who saw it.
Update: Rüsseltier over on Brickset gave some more details of the UCS Avengers S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. They note that the set will be available sooner than we first thought. Before, we first reported that it could be a Summer 2015 set but apparently it will be available on March 1st with set number 76042 and retail for $349.99. Great news for LEGO fans but sad news for our wallets.

YES!
Thank god for this, i’ve been looking forward to a set like this since early the announcement of Lego Avengers. If this is real then it’ll be my first UCS set and i’m really looking forward to getting it!
It was posted on brickset that this set is coming out March 1st and will cost $350.00 The set # is 76042. Hope the rumor is true:)
All avengers included as minifig statuettes like in collectible series or jack sparrow voodoo doll
Boooooooo for the high price!
Depends on the price count… according to the ‘Lego Ideas’ page the smaller scale version till had around 6000 pieces. If that was a set for around $350 then I’d still buy it as it would be an excellent price per piece ratio.
Though I’d probably buy it anyway, plus chances are it will have exclusive figures such as Agent Coulson and Maria Hill
The 6000 piece count was estimated from the creator. I highly doubt it will have that many pieces. My guess is that it will probably be around 2500-3500 pieces.
True, it’ll likely be slightly more scaled down. I suppose that is likely the case as one of the commenters on Brickset stated that someone working at the Lego store near them claimed it was roughly the same size as the Super Star Destroyer which had 3152 pieces.
