Takatu Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Iron Man is easily the best of the three, I think. Although maybe that's just because he's got the least human-like face, so looks a little more what we're used to between Bionicle and Hero Factory. Still, they're all pretty awesome!

MrSciFiGuy Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hmm....I'm liking the Iron Man set.

Obsessionist Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 These look alot better than the offerings so far, as far as looks go. Alot less disjointed and solid. Of course, we won't really know untill they come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa Smoke Monster Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 The Iron Man set looks the best out of these three, IMO. The other two just don't look good to me. (I do like Captain America's shield though.) Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tattorack Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I've seen them, and they all look kind of "Meh!".Exept for Iron Man; he doesn't look great, but the "mechenical" look that these pieces give them is fitting with Iron Man.

Vezok's Friend Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Well, the Ironman looks best. Mostly because the heads from HF parts already look a bit like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesonak Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Iron Man's outstanding. Definitely looking to get him.Captain America looks alright.Hulk looks horrible.-Mesonak Quote The Three Virtues YouTube Channel ----- ----- Check it out for laughs, discussion, and more.

Sumiki Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) Iron Man is the highlight of this wave. His arms look all weird, though ... they should have armored the lower arms, and not made them so stumpy. I'm liking the weapon.Captain America looks like a gladiator/football player running though a paint factory. Red, white, and blue do not go together, and why the random gunmetal?Hulk makes me want to vomit. The only redeeming quality about him is his huge chest armor.

J46 Nui Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I actually got to see some of these sets at Comic Con over the summer. Iron Man is by far the best looking, and the worst looking one would have to be the Hulk, who looks terrible from behind.

BioCry Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think Iron man is the only one anybody likes around here. I'm really looking forward to the Marvel sets. Especially, Any set(s) that may contain Deadpool. - Quote :I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takua Nui of GoAnimate Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Wow, finally! I can't say that these look better than the DC heroes, but I'll be picking up the Iron Man for the parts!

Hexann Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I like them all and plus did you see THE LEGO INCREDIBLE HULK's chest plate. it looks like it would be good for mocs with bulky bodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALVIS Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm really liking the gold pieces on Iron Man. The bulky chest armor on the Hulk looks a bit over-the-top to me.

~Shockwave~ Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Ooh... um... ok. Here goes.iron man, looks decent, arms could be reworked. but pretty nice.Captain America. Um. Yikes. He isn't supposed to be that bulky. Should've h3en made smaller, with parts in the other two.Hulk. That was a bad choice for a one piece hand. The lower legs should've been bulkier.

zerack: the rogue Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Hulk's pants are not purple. Lost interest...Cap looks awkward, and Iron Man seems decent at least. Maybe cause of the massive cannon on his shoulder. Quote Scootaloo, the greatest chicken/dodo/scooter riding Pegasus ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Other than the colors of the Hulk set, he's my second-favorite of these three after Iron Man. Captain America's weird shoulder armor just makes no sense to me. Meanwhile, Hulk's brutish proportions are very nice, although I wish he had fingers and longer forearms.Of the DC heroes, Batman was my favorite for looking the least robotic of the three. Of the Marvel ones, Iron Man's my favorite because he looks very robotic, and on him it makes much more sense than on Green Lantern, Joker, or Captain America.

Takua Nui of GoAnimate Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I've been wondering, why do Cap and Hulk have big (very big in Cap's case) silver shoulders? It looks out of place on Hulk and way too big on Cap. Quote Takua Nui of GoAnimate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I've been wondering, why do Cap and Hulk have big (very big in Cap's case) silver shoulders? It looks out of place on Hulk and way too big on Cap.In Hulk's case, at least, it's almost certainly because they only had a budget for a certain number of parts in new colors for this series. Since the Superheroes (at least, the DC ones) are all said to be wearing "power armor" to explain their slightly-robotic look, silver shoulders on Hulk doesn't seem too out of place, although he needs armor least of all of them.In Cap's, again, power armor, but I'm not fond of it because it is big and blocky, even compared to the stylishly-buff Green Lantern set.

I'm sure it'll be a goldmine for MOCists - which is why I'll probably get him, or at least the parts that interest me - but as a set, the general consensus is that he looks hideous.
