In August 2021, the LEGO® Group treated Marvel Cinematic Universe fans to the Infinity Gauntlet. It was an interesting display piece geared towards adult collectors. Now, we get a second life-sized model also from the Infinity Saga. Earlier, the LEGO® Group revealed Thor’s Hammer, a 979-piece set measuring 46 cm in length and almost 30 cm in width. Interestingly, the set includes a hidden compartment for storing the set’s included mini-builds and Minifigure.

The official set description reads:
Marvel enthusiasts will recognize this authentic recreation as Mjölnir, the magical weapon used to devastating effect by Thor throughout Marvel Studios’ 23-movie Infinity Saga. The 18 in. (46 cm) tall model of the iconic hammer rests securely on a stand with an information plate displaying the word ‘Mjölnir’ and the Infinity Saga logo. A Thor minifigure is included, plus a captivating feature found in the head of the hammer. An opening element reveals the storage space for small-scale models of the Infinity Gauntlet, Tesseract and Odin’s Fire. With 979 pieces, this challenging and rewarding model is sure to provide great pleasure and satisfaction long after the construction work has been completed.
For Marvel fans, Thor’s Hammer presents an interesting collectible. The size of it alone makes it a great display item. However, the build looks equally interesting. Even non-Marvel fans will enjoy the brick selection in this kit. Look at all those grey 6×6 plates! What do you think of Thor’s Hammer? Are you worthy of handling Mjolnir?

Until next time,
