If you haven’t seen it yet, a new trailer for Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War was released earlier today and there was a ton of action throughout. At the end of the trailer there’s surprise appearance but many of us who follow the storyline, we already know who it is:

Spider-Man

As for the LEGO sets, three sets have already been released in conjunction with the movie:
Black Panther Pursuit (76047)
Crossbones’ Hazard Heist (76050)
Super Hero Airport Battle (76051)
However, there’s also a rumored fourth Super Heroes Civil War set (76067) that’s supposed to come out this summer which we haven’t seen yet. The most likely reason we haven’t seen any images of it yet is probably because to conceal the identity of said surprise character until the new trailer came out. Hopefully we see something soon and it’ll be what fans were waiting for.

Really? I mean, seriously? They made such a huge stink about how they made a deal with Sony _specifically_to_use_his_lame_self_in_the_MCU_, only to turn around and pretend like nobody should expect to ever see him in the movie everyone has been saying he needs to be a part of?
Also, the first one looked like a rag doll on a rope. This one looks like a 70’s era cartoon. Is it just that the CGI is slightly past the animatics phase, or are they really planning to drop that steaming pile the way it is right now?
In all fairness, this is the first glimpse of Spidey we’re seeing, and the effects may not be finished yet.
Compare the Star-Lord from the first GotG trailer to the final one:

Maybe. I mean, I never cared for any Spiderman who wasn’t Mexic-Irish to begin with, but it looks like they decided that the CGI look sucked in the Sony movies so they decided to rotoscope it in.
I thought the fourth Civil War set was confirmed? Its listed on Brickset already i believe.
I don’t like saying something is confirmed until there are images of it even though there’s a listing. Kinda softens the blow in case something isn’t released for whatever reason.
I’m also really, really hoping that the Lego video game team has been keeping a Spider-Man DLC for Avengers under wraps- how can we have the ANAD Avengers without Miles? And I really want to se a Lego version of Spider-Gwen.
Oh, and I suppose the Civil War Spidey suit would be cool too.
You mean for the recent game that basically just focuses on Avengers 1 & 2 with a pinch of Cap 1? If Cap 2 didn’t even make it into the initial release, I wouldn’t hold my breath over any Phase 3 DLC.
Really, if they wanted the game to be a solid hit, you’d think they would have gone with one complete stand-alone game per Phase.
I mean, this is from the studio that released a game based on only the first two Hobbit movies, promised the third, and never delivered.
Compared to that, Lego Avengers is shockingly consistent and complete.
For The Hobbit, DLC or waiting it out were really the only two good options. Otherwise, you’d get a 1-2 vs 3 split, or cut off abruptly. For Marvel, Disney has gone on the record as saying that they’ll continue to shovel these things out as long as you keep buying, so why would they cram Phase 3 content into this game via DLC when they barely touched on the Phase 1-2 countries content they already had available? Phase 3 stuff will just get another game down the road that you have to pay full price for. Again, if they really wanted to make this a solid hit, they should have stuck to one Phase per game and did a more thorough job of incorporating everything. At the moment, the only MCU movie I own has only two characters (both villains) in this game, and they’re not based on the movie appearance. The only other three MCU movies I’ve considered buying have zero plot content and only do slightly better on the minifig front because several of the characters appeared in one or both of the Avengers movies.
This game only ranks above L:IJ2 because, if you removed all of the character skins from both games, only one of them feels like a complete game instead of a random collection of minigames. You should give up on Phase 3 DLC and put your energy into hoping they do a better job with L:MA2 whenever they get around to it.
So I’m playing through this game, and I just found out there is more built-in content. I’m not sure what I did to unlock it, but on initial play you get Avengers 2.1, Avengers 1.1, Cap 1, and then you proceed to play through the other four Avengers 1 chapters and five Avengers 2 chapters in chronological order. After doing all of that, I knocked out as much of the hub play as I could (have one character token event in the Manhattan Forest that won’t trigger), and then I started in on chronological free play mode. I got 100% on the single Cap 1 mission and the five Avengers 1 missions, and as the post-game tally finished it notified me that I’d just unlocked three more missions for story mode. Those turn out to be based on Iron Man 3, Thor 2, and Cap 2. Still nothing for IM1-2, Hulk, or GotG, though, and Ant-Man is limited to DLC from what I understand, but there’s a new rumor that GotG may get a standalone game. I don’t put much stock in it at the moment, but it would be cool to get a full game based on the best chunk of the MCU rather than a half-baked single level per movie like the lesser Avengers flicks.
And again, no idea exactly what triggered the three new missions. In one run, I picked up about 8 minikits, at least two character tokens, and might have achieved True Avenger status, so it could be any of those individually, or all of them combined.
Oh, and if they do screw this up by adding Phase 3 DLC, expect Cap 3 to be boiled down to a single mission that barely covers the most basic plot points of the film, pissing all you MCU fanboys off for how incomplete it feels. Then again, if they use all of Phase 3 for their next LMA game, expect the same treatment regardless…but by then you’ll all be drooling over the end of Phase 3/start of Phase 4, and poor old Cap 3 will be largely forgotten anyways.
I got the other Phase 2 levels simply after I finished the main story mode, but, man, were they disappointing.
Based on the post credits scene, it looks like they will have a GotG game.
Are there any rumors of what size/pricepoint the fourth set will be?
Was it rumored as the regular set or as special edition?
I would like to know this too ^
It’s a regular set.
I think that looks cool! You should check out my blog at aninjagoblog.wordpress.com
I guess it is just me, but I’m a bit disappointed that the Giant man was not an actual minifgure scaled up.
Can I just say that I’m extremely thankful for Mr. Tran putting the trailer reveal in a spoiler tag, unlike most other sites who headline it? Seriously, thanks.
