LEGO Avengers Helicarrier Announced! [News]

Fans have long speculated that a LEGO Avengers Helicarrier was in the works, and today LEGO officially confirmed those rumors. The new set, 76042 The SHIELD Helicarrier, is a gigantic microscale ship which rings in just shy of 3 feet in length. This is the first time LEGO has used tiny microscale figures (originally designed to be trophies) as characters in a playset. The set also comes with 5 regularly-sized minifigures, and can be motorized using LEGO Power Functions (not included). It will be available from LEGO Shop@Home in March.

    Wow. Impressive. It will certainly appeal to the AFOL ‘one of each’ brigade… but I wonder, if Umbra-Manis and other TFOLs will be prepared to give up (more than) a year’s budget to get one? It’s certainly iconic, but it’s no X-Wing or Tumbler.
