The best new Marvel Lego sets dropping this month

No matter if you’re an adult or kid, there have been so many great Lego sets to pick up this year. August, in particular, has seen some excellent new drops, including new botanicals sets, cute Halloween decorations (if you want to enjoy spooky season a little early this year), and some incredible new Star Wars sets. Marvel fans have plenty of exciting new options to look through, too.

Most of August’s new releases center around Spider-Man. From an amazing looking Iron Spider-Man Bust to a brick-built recreation of the Spider-Man and Doc Ock Subway train scene from Spider-Man 2, fans of Marvel’s web-slinger have plenty of new sets to consider. Outside of Spider-Man, there’s also a cool Avengers: Age of Ultron Quinjet set that would make a cool display once finished, but there’s more where that came from.

Check out the latest Marvel Lego releases this month:

Iron Spider-Man Bust Set

For those looking to build a model to display, this Iron Spider-Man Bust Lego set deserves a place on your collectible shelf. Recommended for ages 18 and up, it comes with 379 pieces that come together to create the top half of Spidey in his Iron Spider Suit. Parts of the bust are also posable, including the arms of the Iron Spider suit and his head, which is a nice way to personalize the display. You even get a cute little Iron Spider-Man minifigure to place alongside a name plaque.

Spider-Man vs. Oscorp Set

The Spider-Man vs. Oscorp Lego set is an action-packed build that’s perfect for younger fans, as it’s recommended for ages 10 and up. It comes with 808 pieces that make up three buildings: Miles Morales’ apartment, the Oscorp building, and Venom’s apartment. It even comes with a variety of minifigures to bring the scene to life, including Spider-Man, Spider-Woman, Miles Morales, Eddie Brock, Ghost-Spider, Norman Osborn, Kraven the Hunter, and Green Goblin.

Avengers: Endgame Thor vs. Chitauri Set

Captain America vs. Thanos Set

The Captain America vs. Thanos Lego set is much smaller than the previously mentioned builds, coming in at just 107 pieces. It’s perfect for Marvel fans starting from age four and up. With this tiny but mighty set, you’ll piece together Captain America’s Quinjet, which features two shooters and a cockpit that opens, alongside Thanos in an Infinity Gauntlet-styled spaceship, which also features movable ‘fingers’ and a missile launcher. It also comes with two minifigures of Captain America and Thanos with their respective shield and helmet, of course.

Iron Man and War Machine vs. Hammer Drones Set

The Iron Man and War Machine vs. Hammer Drones Lego set is a great fit for ages seven and up and comes with 204 pieces in total. These fit together to create Hammer Drones, the green model with a spring shooter on its shoulder and the blue model boasting push shooters on each shoulder. This set also comes with minifigures of Iron Man and War Machine so you can complete the battle from Iron Man 2.

Peter Parker’s Apartment Set

This is another Lego set that’s great for Spider-Man fans, and is recommended for ages eight and up. With 394 pieces, you’ll put together Peter Parker’s apartment, which features two levels. The first floor is a kitchen while the second has a study and bedroom, the latter of which comes with a variety of accessories including a flip-up bed, desk, computer, camera, and microscope. This set also comes with a fun variety of minifigures: Hobgoblin, Spider-Man, Anti-Venom, and Mary Jane.

Avengers: Age of Ultron Quinjet Set

The Avengers: Age of Ultron Quinjet Lego set makes such a cool display. Recommended for slightly older fans at 12 and up, it comes with 1,131 pieces that create the aircraft, which features a cockpit that opens, two stud shooters in front, and storage for weapons. It also comes with five minifigures, including Black Widow (complete with her motorcycle), Iron Man, Quicksilver, Ultimate Ultron, and Hawkeye, who also has his bow and arrow.

Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock Subway Train Scene Set

For fans of Spider-Man 2, this Lego set recreates the iconic subway train scene between Spidey and Doc Ock. It’s recommended for ages nine and up and comes with 393 pieces to build the train. It also comes with four minifigures that help complete the scene: J. Jonah Jameson, Aunt May, Spider-Man, and Doc Ock. The Spider-Man figure has interchangeable heads that allow him to be masked or unmasked, while the Doc Ock figure has four jointed tentacles. Two of them have ‘laser beam’ elements and the other two can be clipped onto the train.
