While The Avengers action figures are so far proving a little disappointing, there's no doubt that Lego getting the license for the franchise is good news. It's
great news indeed that they've finally been released in our favourite brick form--and here's their smallest offering in retail so far!

Though I grabbed the
Loki's Cosmic Cube Escape and Hulk Helicarrier Breakout set first, this was soon to follow following its release about a week later. I guess it was also the quickest to put together and that it had one of the figures we've all been waiting for--Captain America! Sure, I was also dying for Hulk, Thor and Iron Man, but hey, Cap really grows on you!
From his slightly more edgy Ultimates self, to his stance (and death) in Civil War, to his awesome on-screen incarnation, it's no wonder the kids are all seeing stars and stripes. Well, at least mine is. He never fails to point out the Cap shield when he spots it--and he's just over 13 months old!
So enough talk and more review action--here we go! ;)
