I’m really glad that the X-Men are coming back into the mainstream after all these years. I hope we get more sets and more minifigs related to the X-Men
Funny enough. Over the last weeks i watched the entirety of the X-Men movies... it was great! Especially after all these years the movies are still super cool to watch!
There is nothing stopping Lego from just putting the windscreen in its own separate little bag. They do with other pieces and windscreens, why not here.
@@inn3rl0tuss69 My bad, I had no idea what I was talking about, I just looked up the episode and he still had his red suit. Apparently the purple suit is from the upcoming season which is a direct continuation of X-men TAS
I hope we get an X-Men vs Sentinel set with a giant articulated sentinel and bunch of new X-Men like Nightcrawler, Psylocke, Gambit, Angel, Iceman, Colossus, etc 😍😍
I'm definitely getting this set the moment it's on sale. If I can't get it, I'll at least try to get the Rouge and Cyclops figures to add to my collection.
@@VampireQueen1665 I am gonna use the new Magneto's head on my classic Magneto, I think the new one is a lot more expressive (other than that, the figure is worthless to me)
The X-Men are my favorite comic team, and they are the thing that brought me really into the comic book industry in the first place. My father introduced me to them at 6 yeaes old via an animated series, then the X-Men movies, and I was hooked. I still love watching and readind X-Men. Rogue is my favorite X-Man (where's Deadpool's inclusivity when we need it?) and Magneto is my favorite X-Men character. I happen to be a huge LEGO collector who has missed the early wave of X-Men sets, and has been trying to make it up by collecting every possible thing. I have bought the Wolverine Mech without hesitation only to get that helmet (fun fact, I have found and bought it three months earlier than its release date, proof is on my "channel" where I uploaded a "review" because there were none at the time) and have been collecting the new CMF until I found all three X-Men. So, I believe I made my case for not waiting a single second to buy this set even though the price is ridiculous.
Man, I really hope the future X-Men set comes with Gambit. You can't have Rogue or Gambit without each other. Like if they make a Sentinel set, Gambit and Jean are a must. And unfortunately, we will get another Wolverine. Plus if you got the blind bag Wolverine, you'll have a damaged Sentinel head.
I saw this set at Target and I thought they put it in the wrong spot but I went and scanned it and I was shocked to see it was $85. I ended up getting it anyway but man that is crazy.
Thanks for sharing! I have to agree on the overpricing, Lego goes up much faster than inflation. Also, that is the worst Magneto I've ever seen. Glad we got the old one. They should have offered us two new X-Men and left Wolverine that is over done anyway and Magneto out of this set to warrant such a price.
I don’t have any idea of the x men 97 story but there is a run in the comics when magneto forgets who he is and joins the x men by his name Joesph, he’s hair was the same as this minifig
I saw on r/Lego that someone found it at a Walmart near them, already marked down (with the SKU on it) to $50. If i can find it at my local Walmart for that much, i’m jumping on it.
Rogue should have came with a skin coloured extra hand. Yeah, you could just pull one off another figure to use but why not add a little something extra? I just wish the plane was bigger... I like the figs but it should have been scaled up more. As for the scratched cockpit piece... yeah there is something they could do and they usually do. Put it in a separate little bag... or little box!
Like most, I don't care for this Magneto. The set looks awesome though and I definitely want to add this to my collection. Either I will be waiting for a long time, or a GWP comes a long that I really want, and can make me use this in the order to get it.
I agree that $80 or whatever is way too much for this kit. I’m not a fan of this magneto, they could have put his original head&helmet piece in the kit so we can have options. I’m definitely waiting for this to go on major sale, like clearance.
It's a great looking set but I'm down that Cyclops doesn't have yellow boots and Wolverine is blue instead of brown. And that it has Wolverine in the first place, we didn't need a downgrade, Magneto is whatever, You could just get mighty micros and make a more classic one.
I agree, Wolverine should have been replaced with Jean but I am also glad we have a new head for Wolverine too. I would have accepted a Brown wolverine too, since that's basically the coolest design lol
I hate the stud shooters and missile things... don't like them adding those to sets and wish they'd give a few extra pieces for an alternate build if you don't want it on your sets
i’m gonna be honest 80$ really isn’t that bad for that set i mean you get all exclusive minifigs i mean sure some of them might not be the best (magneto) but at least we get a new cyclops and rogue, it’s also been a couple years since we’ve seen an x men set and i couldn’t be more happier with that set lego put it out and i honestly feel like it will only go up in price
Wtf that wolverine is ridiculous 😅. The jet looks cool. I'll buy on amazon for £60 on amazon in a couple months. Mainly for that cyclops fig and the jet will look good next to the xmen mansion coming out later this year. Should of been gambit but i guess theyre saving him for the mansion.
Wow I didn't even realize this Wolverine doesn't have the arm printing until you pointed it out. That is actually incredibly lame why would they do that.....
I’m not sure what I did wrong but I can’t close either canopy when there’s a figure in the backseats. I re-watched your video and see where you demonstrate that with no problem so I must’ve screwed it up.
How much you want to bet that Lego's gonna pull a Quinjet like last year and put all of these figures and a smaller version of the X-Jet in the rumored X-Mansion set coming later next year?
Magnus is a villain in X 97? Well if this is a sequel to X TAS Magneto should be an ally (Magnus figure Is accurate to the plot of last episode of X TAS)
It does seem pricey, don’t know what the £ conversion amount is from $ but I think I’ll still get it for the Rogue mini-fig along with the new cyclops fig, even if I have the original x-jet set
Or any other character who we haven’t seen before, like jubilee, jean grey or morph, even bishop. And it would’ve been nice if we have another villain apart of magneto, like sabletooth, mr sinister or juggernaut
Well the vip points aren't even 600 so even double it's not worth it and I just can't justify paying this atleast the new hall of armor had tons of figs but this and the marvel's is crazy for no reason this should be a $40 set at best it really should be a 35 Lego is getting out of hand specifically with their lacking of quality control like the wind screen
