LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Captain America’s Avenging Cycle (6865) Review

Although the smallest set of the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes sets as well as the Super Heroes line so far in 2012, Captain America’s Avenging Cycle doesn’t disappoint. This set supposedly recreates a scene in the new Avengers movie. It contains 72 pieces and retails for $12.99. The set has a $0.18/piece ratio but you do get three minifigures. There are two unnumbered bags and a small instruction booklet.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes and Google+ Hangouts

As an AFOL and a Gnomie, I’m always interested in anything that involves LEGO. Chris Pirillo discusses the new features of Google+ and YouTube where viewers can now watch Google+ Live Hangouts on the Google+ profile or page and the YouTube channel simultaneously. He does this while assembling three of the new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes sets. The sets being built are Captain America’s Avenging Cycle (6865)icon, Wolverine’s Chopper Showdown (6866)icon, and Loki’s Cosmic Cube Escape (6867)icon. Chris also discusses other topics with other Gnomies including Marvel comics, Battlestar Galactica, Empire Avenue, and Google products.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Set Now Available

The long wait for the new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes set is now over! You can now purchase all five sets from LEGO Shop@Home. You can go ahead and buy them now, but I would suggest waiting until next month if you have patience and self-control. The reason? As stated in a previous post, you can get an exclusive Hulk minifigure with a $50 purchase from May 16-31. If you want to get the sets now, I’ve provided links for each set in the series.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Toys”R”Us Pre-order

Toys”R”Us has released pictures and decriptions for the new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes sets. They are available for pre-order today and have the estimated ship date of 4/10/2012. My first impressions of the set are that they look pretty good. I’m not sure about Iron Man’s helmet though. It looks a little too big and disproportional to the body. The other figures look great though.

**Update 3/27/12** Apparently, Toys”R”Us has removed all the pre-order links for all the sets except for Wolverine’s Chopper Showdown. I’m not sure when those links will be live again.

**Update 3/31/12** From what I’m reading, it looks like some of the sets are hitting stores already. Sets should be available beginning April 8. Be on the lookout for early releases.

**Update 4/8/12** Sets can now be purchased in many retail stores including LEGO Shop@Home.
