Marvel may have only released a single teaser trailer for Avengers: Infinity War, but by drawing upon the MCU’s continuity, fans have already formed their conclusions when it comes to Joe and Anthony Russo’s super-sized epic.
And so, that has led to a number of ‘foolproof’ theories bouncing around the Internet – from Tony Stark’s ‘secret’ Infinity Stone to the Mad Titan and everything in between, there’s really no end to the Infinity War rabbit hole. Now, amid talk of Thor’s souped-up weapon – Mjolnir out; Jarnbjorn in? – Super Bro Movies has uncovered new intel thanks to our very first look at those LEGO sets that leaked the other week.
If you recall, we got some descriptions for these not too long ago, which told us quite a bit about the plot, and now, to add onto that, we actually have some photos, which allow us to gain even more insight into what will be going down in Marvel’s sure to be epic event movie.

So, there’s clearly a lot to dive into here, and fans will no doubt be poring over everything for weeks to come, but thanks to the new photos, we can now gain a bit more insight from the previously released set descriptions.
For starters, we get a look at the God of Thunder’s new weapon as well as the spot that it’ll be forged at. Furthermore, as Super Bro Movies points out, the Corvis Glaive set seems to take place in Wakanda, and with that particular location coming into play in the third act of Infinity War, it looks like Vision may survive until the end of the movie, since he’s included here. In addition to that, another set gives us a look at Iron Man’s Space Suit, which has been discussed quite a bit lately, while there’s also another glimpse of the arms on Spidey’s Iron Spider armor, as he’s featured in a LEGO set which tells us that the Black Order will attack Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Sanctorum.
Of course, if you dig even deeper, you’ll be able to discover even more juicy plot details, but what we’ve mentioned above are probably the most significant. It’s important to note that toy leaks aren’t always the best indication of what’s going to happen in a film, but a lot of what’s here lines up with stuff we’ve already heard and besides, with only a handful of months to go before Avengers: Infinity War blasts into theaters, we should be getting more concrete info in no time at all!
