    Same here, except for the occasional one-off sets I've picked up over the years (Milano from GotG, Ant-man quantum thingy, Captain Marvel jet). Spiderman is always an easy pass for me. The mech suits look fine for parts fodder but I don't see the point in these characters having mech suits at all really.

    But those ball joints are really good. Way better than the ratchet joints used previously, at least as far as range of motion is concerned.

    The claw build, on the other hand, is pretty ugly. Although the hub piece for the claws seems to be new, a 4-way claw attachment.

    I think they opted for the extra-large tires so that you could attach the flame energy pieces without affecting the car's rolling.

    when did spider-man become marvel's version of batman with all the vehicles and bases and shit?

    half of spider-man stories are him broke and trying to earn a living. of all characters i don't know how he's that character. avengers sure...shield related sure...but spidey? outside of set pieces like the bugle or bridge why is he getting a secret base and monster trucks?

    Something new for Mclaren and Lego

    McLaren Get Lego Technic Treatment For First Time With Epic Senna GTR

    * Unfortunately, builders and collectors hoping to score the Senna for the holidays will be disappointed. It's slated to hit shelves around the world in early January 2021, just after the shopping frenzy. It won't break the bank, however, as recommended pricing will be around $50. *

    Edit: Here's more info plus a Lego link to the item itself. ;)

    The Mando set looks good. I'll probably pick up two of them and sell off the extra Mando, Baby Yoda and bike.

    The hut and the catapult are kinda pieces of junk but the speeder and Mando are sweet. I guess it's also good for people who want the Child but don't want to get the more expensive Razorcrest.

    That looks awesome! I'm glad they finally did a Beskar Mandalorian.
