Warning. Spoilers for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness follow…
Pre-pandemic, it wasn’t uncommon for a few spoilers to slip out through tie-in products and merchandising, so with all of the release date delays and scheduling reshuffling that’s gone on due to COVID, it seems inevitable that we can expect a few more over the coming months – and first up is Marvel Studios’ Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
As you can see below, The LEGO Group has unveiled a new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes tie-in set for the Sam Raimi-directed sequel, with ‘Gargantos Showdown’ not only confirming the rumoured inclusion of the minor Namor the Sub-Mariner villain Gargantos but also giving us our first glimpse of the MCU’s America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez) on the packaging, as well as in minifigure form.
The Gargantos Showdown set goes on sale on January 1st, priced at $29.99/£24.99; take a look at the official promo images here…
