Ant-Man Buildable Figurine Revealed

Ant-Man Buildable Figurine Revealed

The third installment in the Ant-Man saga hits theaters on February 17, 2023. Consequently, the LEGO® Group just revealed their own tie-in to the film. An Ant-Man buildable figurine comes out in May. Yes, May… over two months after the release of the actual movie. And yes, a buildable figurine, just like Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Venom before him. I can’t say I like any of those predecessors. They just look bad, especially the element used for the head. I doubt I am alone in that considering that the only sets my local Toys R Us had in stock after Christmas were these. However, Ant-Man is a little different. Let’s take a closer look.

Ant-Man Buildable Figurine Specifics

  • NAME: Ant-Man Construction Figure
  • SET #: 76256
  • THEME: Marvel Superheroes
  • COST: $39.99 CAD ($29.99 USD)
  • BRICK COUNT: 289
  • MINIFIGURES: None (but you get a Wasp micro-figure)
  • RELEASE DATE: May 1, 2023
  • COST/BRICK: $0.138 (average value)

I think the buildable style of figurine works a little better this time around than previous attempts. The shape of the head suits the character a little more, especially since designers added elements that make it look more like the movie version. Over all, I think the LEGO® Group did a decent job on this set. I still don’t like it enough to go out and buy it though. But I also don’t think its as ugly as all the others. However, I do wish it came with an Ant-Man Minifigure and micro-figure so you could play out his size changes. What do you think of the new Ant-Man buildable figurine? Let me know in the comments below or reach out on social media.

Until next time,
