The third and final LEGO Minifigures series is finally here as LEGO have given us official pictures of a brand new exclusive range of Minifigures. These pictures showcase the great selection of figures in 71039 which is the second LEGO Marvel CMF series following on from the success of the first a couple of years ago. The series will release on 1st September 2023 with a brand new range of 12 MCU characters
List of Minifigures
Goliath - Based on the What If...? series, Goliath includes a helmet and an Ant-Man micro-figure.
Kate Bishop - She includes a bow, a quiver, a bullseye and Lucky the Dog which may or may not be a new dog piece.
Hawkeye - He also includes a bow and a quiver along with an owl which is a brand new mould unique to the owl that appeared in the final of the show. Hawkeye also includes a hearing aid which is printed on his head.
Moon Knight - Includes a new piece for multiple crescent darts along with the scarab as a 1x1 round printed tile and a white cape. Moon Knight also uses the hood piece in white from the rogue Minifigure from 71013 Series 16.
Mr Knight - He comes with some silver sticks which use the lightsaber piece in this colour. Mr Knight also includes Gus the Fish as a printed 1x2 brick and the tape recorder from episode 1 of Moon Knight.
She-Hulk - She includes a cell phone printed on a 1x2 tile and a law firm ad printed on a 2x3 tile.
Werewolf by Night - Includes the bloodstone on a 1x2 circular tile as his accessory and in full colour of brown and green rather than black and white.
Agatha Harkness - Branded under Wandavision, Agatha includes the Darkhold, a pair of purple power blast pieces and a purple cape.
Wolverine (X-Men 97) - Includes the basic mask, hair and claws. He also includes a buildable glass case which has a regular sentinel head inside.
Storm (X-Men 97) - She comes with lightning pieces, a white pauldron and a white matching cape.
Beast (X-Men 97) - He comes with a brand new hairpiece, similar to Wolverine's hair in blue and a yellow mug with an X on it.
Echo - This Minifigure is based on her version of her own Echo show which not much information is known about. However, she comes with a new super detailed LEGO mould along with her sticks as an accessory.
As already mentioned, 71039 Marvel Studios Series 2 follows on from 71038 which celebrated 100 years of Disney along with a range of other sets throughout this year. This means once the second Marvel series releases on 1st September 2023, it'll be the third and final series of the year. However, as shown from the images, it is the first LEGO Minifigure Series to be in boxes rather than the usual blind bags with LEGO making up for this by including more accessories/pieces.
This threat to the LEGO Minifigure series has been coming for a while but actually seeing the Minifigures in boxes with the official packaging and branding is very strange. The boxes themselves are smaller than the LEGO Super Mario Character Pack Boxes but will most likely be impossible to feel for specific Minifigures. We don't know how this will impact sales or whether LEGO will continue this no matter what fans say...
