The Delayed LEGO Marvel Mechs Are Now Launching on 1st April
Back in December, we told you about three new LEGO Marvel mechs which were scheduled to release in January. However, due to “stability issues” with the sets, they were pulled from the schedule, with no indication as to whether they were delayed or cancelled.
Today, the three sets have reappeared on LEGO.com with a new release date of 1st April. It seems LEGO has managed to address the stability issues of the set with a redesign. And so LEGO Marvel fans can now look forward to these in the spring.
LEGO never explicitly told us exactly what its production issue was, but according to brickset.com, the instability could have come from the design of each mech’s hips. The artwork for the relisted sets does not appear to have been updated, however, so we can’t ascertain any difference.
Interestingly, the piece count has changed on the LEGO page listing for each one; each set now has one additional piece than was previously listed.
You’ll find details on the three sets below.
LEGO 76204 Black Panther Mech Armor
- £8.99
- Age 7+
- 125 pieces
- 1 minifigure
LEGO Marvel Avengers 76204 Black Panther Mech Armor is the first of three new sets joining the existing mini mechs already out there. Black Panther comes in a striking black and purple colour. It features movable limbs for great poseability. Click here to see more information.
LEGO 76203 Iron Man Mech Armor
- £8.99
- Age 7+
- 131 pieces
- 1 minifigure
The next mech is Iron Man, also known as Tony Stark. This is unmistakably Iron Man, too, thanks to his iconic red and gold colour scheme. Along with poseable limbs, he also fires studs out of a gun on his hand. Cool. Find out more by visiting LEGO.com.
LEGO 76202 Wolverine Mech Armor
- £8.99
- Age 7+
- 142 pieces
- 1 minifigure
Last but not least is Wolverine, with his giant claw hands. Again, his limbs are poseable, and the included Wolverine minifigure can be mounted inside the mech. It’s also got to be said that we’re loving the revamped packaging design for LEGO Marvel mechs coming in January 2022. See more information on LEGO’s store page.
