I have a few Marvel LEGO sets hanging around the house that I have yet to build. I picked out the Iron Man Hulkbuster versus A.I.M. Agent set. The set has the Hulkbuster plus Iron Man, Rescue and two A.I.M. Agents. While the set is a good one I think they cheaped out on the Iron Man and Rescue figures because they do nto have flip up helmets and Rescue’s suit is red and not blue. But the build was fun and this now is in the display cubby on my desk. One side is now LEGO nd the other Transformers.
This pandemic certainly has put a damper on my toy collecting. Sure I still collect some toys but I am not in the stores nearly enough to catch things when they come out. I was lucky enough to be in Walmart the other day and I caught these awesome new Marvel Themed Hot Wheels. These are not character cars but rather cars with a MArvel theme and the theme is Maximum Venom. This theme takes Marvel super heroes and “venomizes” them. So we have Spider-Man, Iron Man, Groot, Captain America and Doctor Strange. I love it when I am there and all of the series is available. It drives me nuts when I miss out on one from a set. So, while I was able to get each of these I am having a hard time completing the Disney character cars that came out recently.
There are actually two sets in this photo, There are two cars from Series 6 and four from Series 7. So I figure that series 6 got released early on in the pandemic and series 7 was released recently. I’m missing 4 cars from Series six and I think they are going to be hard to find. One is a black and White Steamboat Willie inspired Mickey Mouse car and I am sure that is going to be hard to find. I always look when I am out and about, which is less and less.
