LEGO Reveals MCU Minifigure Collectibles Including Throg

LEGO has unveiled its latest wave of collectible "mystery" bag minifigures, this time based off of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's most recently released properties. These are the first mystery bags LEGO has released based on the Marvel universe. The minifigures in this collection include characters from the first four Disney+ MCU series, namely WandaVision, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, and What If...?. Apart from the minifigures themselves, each bag includes a relevant accessory (and in some cases, even a smaller animal companion) based on the character's appearance in their respective show.To get more news about Minifigures online, you can visit minifigureonline.com official website.

LEGO's mystery bag sets adopt the trading card approach to collecting. Each bag is unlabelled, and has a chance to include any one of the twelve characters announced for the wave; whether or not the desired minifigure is included is entirely up to chance. The company initially adopted this tactic to sell miscellaneous un-themed minifigures, but have since ventured out into licensed IP's such as Harry Potter, DC Comics, and even The Simpsons. For minifigure collectors, the mystery bag line is a far less expensive alternative to collect specific figures without being having to purchase entire LEGO sets.
the MCU mystery bags will release on September 1 and will cost $4.99 USD per figure.

Up until 2021, Hasbro had the sole license to produce Marvel-themed action figures. Although LEGO released countless Marvel-themed LEGO sets in the past (all of which included minifigures), they were unable to sell standalone minifigures alone as that would have technically been a violation of Hasbro's exclusivity contract with Disney. It seems now that the terms of that contract are loosening with LEGO's latest wave of MCU-themed mystery bag sets.

Fans have been clamoring for LEGO to release Marvel-themed mystery bag sets for years. It's exciting to finally see them come to fruition, especially considering the fact that this first wave is inspired entirely by Marvel Studios' latest properties. With Disney's merchandise exclusivity contracts loosening, hopefully LEGO will soon be able to release similar standalone minifigures based on Star Wars characters – another IP that has yet to receive a mystery bag line. In the meantime, LEGO fans will have plenty of Marvel Cinematic Universe figures to keep them and their wallets busy.
