Recently I received a message that the Marvel Collector Corps is ending their subscriber service. I wish that they wouldn’t stop it. I enjoyed the boxes that I received and at first they were amazing. There used to be a pin and a patch in each box but now there seems to be a either or situation. So, the quality has gone downhill a bit and I wish that they had kept the quality going. T-Shirts and pins and patches were great parts of these boxes and then sometimes there were special covers for comic books and then those stopped showing up. So now it is random stuff and much of it is exclusive but the heart just doesn’t seem to be in it like it was at first.
This month’s box was called Animal Instinct and it included some of the animal based characters from Marvel. You can see it all in the video below.
I’m loving these little LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Mighty Micros. These are little vehicles that are themed for each character. I think that there should be a LEGO video game that was all about racing these Marvel Mighty Micros. They make me think about the Wacky Racers from Hanna-Barbera.
Some of my favorite cars are the Milano with Star Lord. They did a great job making this with minimal bricks. I also like the Sandman’s dump truck and the fact that Scarlet Spider is chasing him down with a shovel. The best piece out of all of them is the Mix Tape that Nebula is holding.
I also have an Iron Man vs. Thanos set but am not sure where that one is. I’m kicking myself that I never picked up the Captain America vs. Red Skull and Hulk vs. Ultron. Now these are super hard to find and expensive.
