Hapori Tohu Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 The Avengers movie is in theaters, so what better time to take a look at some of the tie-in sets? Today Ta-metru_defender looks at <a href="http://amzn.to/KXMGHF" target="offsite">Captain America's Avenging Cycle</a>, the smallest of the bunch. Is this a set fitting of the First Avenger?

xccj Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Dude, awesome review. Those minifigures are sure the highlight, and I'm very tempted to go pick them up. But, as you mentioned, the vehicles are the best, so maybe I'll wait for a sale. Either way, this review did a great job at showing off the set. Thanks!

TheSkeletonMan939 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 The "Avenging Cycle" is such a stupid name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylerax Toa of Awesome Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Nice review. I have to say that you pretty much summed up my thoughts about this set. I mainly got it for Captain America, but I actually liked his bike. The aliens I could care less about, but at the same time, they are cool, along with their vehicles/equipment. I just wish the Hulk came in a less expensive set, I want his minifigure so bad, even though I have all the constraction figures of both Marvel and DC. Quote Have free time and wanna read a comedy?

Athmos Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I might just buy the figures from eBay or something... Quote WIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 The minfigs, to me, are the coolest thing about this set. The space jet ski doesn't look to bad either. Thanks for the review!

Aanchir Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 The blades in this set are both new this year and from Ninjago, so you were right with both options.On a side note, I'd like to offer my sincere thanks to TMD for applying the stickers on these sets. It's always frustrating for me to read a review where the stickers are never applied.

WeatherDragon Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Hm, I like the color scheme. Captain America was always one of my favorites. I'm sure I'll love the set more when I actually see the movie.

Toa of the Blazing Inferno Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Do you have any ideas for making a Steve Rogers head without his CA mask? Your idea for Tony was pretty good, if I didn't already tell you that in the talkback for that review.

Bambi Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Heh, cool. I like the minifig. Haven't seen these sets in any stores around me, strangely. Thanks for the review, TMD! Quote [my blog] [custom emotes] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
