11/23/2023 0 Comments Lego daily bugle 2021 reviewWas the Daily Bugle the first choice for a Spider-man set of this scale, and was it always intended to be this big? /u/CosmicVSTheWorld Is there a way to fix up Goblin’s destruction in the set, such as extra window pieces? /u/jump9575Īll the parts required to build the window undamaged are in the explosion. But Marvel also have to agree and some of the decisions to include or not include figures were up to them and like I said others we just didn’t have the capacity to include. TO give you a few names I wanted Deadpool, The Human Torch, Iceman, Spider Woman – all Spiderman’s buddy’s. In fact because it was so minifigure heavy a lot of figures from this set were pushed out into the standard retail line (they ended up coming out first). I wanted the original Sinister Six, but we just couldn’t make it happen, we ran out of new figures we could make. I had made a list around 60 long when I started! ![]() I’ve included some of the more insightful questions and answers below from the AMA, so enjoy getting to know the design process behind the Daily Bugle, how minifigures are selected, and speculate about what other Marvel sets Mark could apply his Midas Touch to.Ĭheck out the list of sets Mark has designed on Brickset and also follow him on Twitter there any minifigures you wanted included that didn’t make the cut? – /u/pshcold Senior LEGO Designer Mark Stafford was the lead designer on the 71678 Daily Bugle, with supporting from Mark T (graphics), Carter, Adam, Edward (builders). Anything said in this post is the opinion of the author and not The LEGO Group.Is your Spider-sense still tingling from yesterday’s reveal of the 2021 LEGO Daily Bugle? To deep dive into the set and the mind of the designer, Mark Stafford did a Reddit Ask Me Anything (AMA) recently chatting to fans about the Daily Bugle. Priced at $299 (no announcements yet on if this will increase with other sets due a price bump in coming months) this set is one of those once in a lifetime buys, but as with larger sets it's good value for money (8c ppp) and if you can afford it you won't be disappointedĭisclaimer: This LEGO set was kindly provided for review by The LEGO Group. Also I think the roof sign looks a bit oversized which wouldn't be the case if the building was 4-6 studs wider. ![]() I'd even sacrifice 4-5 minifigures to improve this. If I had to nitpick I'd complain that the footprint is a bit too small, especially on higher floors. The height is certainly impressive and will tower over pretty much anything else likely to be in your city. Yes there's a ton of repetition but that was to be expected, luckily this is balanced by great interior builds and an unparalleled selection of minifigures. ![]() Based on the Animated TV show Ultimate Spider-Man the set contained a great assortment of minifigures but had a less than impressive Daily Bugle building. Set 76005-1 - Spider-Man: Daily Bugle Showdown was released in 2013. In LEGO form we haven't seen that many versions of the Daily Bugle. The modern version was introduced in a 1962 Fantastic Four comic before appearing in Spider-Man in 1963. ![]() First appearing in 1941's Marvel Mystery Comics #18 as part of a story involving a Golden Age version of the Human Torch (not the Johnny Storm version). Its history actually predates Spider-Man by over 20 years. The Daily Bugle is up there with the rival Daily Planet for most famous fictional newspaper. In part two I'll summarize the new parts/prints/colors/rare parts for the main model and I'll see how much of the building I can fit in my light box! I included the packaging and instructions information here too so if you missed it you can click here. In part one I wrote about the minifigures. With an impressive height this is LEGO's largest skyscraper to date. With the minifigures out of the way I'm going to be building the Bugle itself.
