With around 200 confirmed LEGO sets for 2026 and many more that are only rumored so far, there is plenty to collect for all kinds of fans – especially for those who enjoy specific series and franchises that Harry PotterNinjago, Disney and Marvel. Although there are no new sets dedicated to the MCU's new Avengers: Judgment Day movie, Marvel is very much in the game for LEGO fans with 12 confirmed sets and possibly 4 more that have yet to be revealed. These sets may seem random at first glance, but together they paint three very specific targets that are about to be met.
Typically, LEGO sets dedicated to a specific IP or franchise tend to be broad enough to appeal to all possible fans, with certain editions having features that are likely to be more appreciated by certain types of consumers. A good example is LEGO Pokémon sets in 2026, which will include a kit dedicated to Pikachu, one to Eevee, and one to Gen 1/Kanto starters, all with different price tags and all providing different building experiences. Marvel is no exception, and its goals are:

6 of 12 LEGO Marvel sets for 2026 are dead on target
LEGO Marvel's 3 goals for 2026 explained
Of the confirmed 2026 LEGO sets dedicated to Marvel characters and stories, there are six that are dedicated to different goals, and the remaining six mostly fit under one of the three goals, but slightly differently. The goals are:
-
Movie-accurate LEGO Sets: These are all sets that feature scenes, characters and elements from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
-
Fresh New Firsts LEGO Sets: Any set that introduces something new and unique that cannot be found anywhere else. Technically, this is the umbrella designation for all sets in 2026, but only a handful have truly unique pieces.
-
AFOL Customer LEGO Sets: This includes all the LEGO sets intended for collectors and adult fans of LEGO (AFOL for short), meaning they either require some building experience or are more expensive.
Movie Exact Marvel LEGO Set 2026
There won't be many MCU-dedicated sets coming next year, but the ones that are released offer good quality at reasonable prices. These are:
-
Epic Battle: Hulkbuster Vs. The Hulk
-
Epic Battle: Spider-Man Vs. Sandman
The Hulkbuster Vs. The Hulk set comes from the iconic scene in Avengers: Age of Ultronwhere Tony Stark uses a Hulkbuster suit to calm down the Hulk. The set comes with a small plaque indicating where the battle is coming from, and it has a minifigure for the Hulk and a larger model for the Hulkbuster suit.
Similarly, the set of Spider-Man vs. Sandman from another Marvel movie, this time inspired by Spider-Man 3 (2007). This is undoubtedly one of the best LEGO sets of 2026, considering that it comes with three distinct characters (Spider-Man, Sandman, and Venom) and it costs only $24.99.
New New Marvel LEGO Sets 2026
This category is for all non-film correct sets as well as non-AFOL sets. Since all new sets always have something unique about them, this applies to all nine confirmed Marvel sets for 2026 that aren't dedicated to specific movies or intended for adult fans.

Team Spidey Pirate Ship
Of these, three specific sets take the concept of fresh new additions to a whole other level. The Team Spidey Pirate Ship set mixes Spider-Man with pirate themes and even pirate ships, which is incredibly interesting for new collectors and veterans alike. Then Spider-Man Car Vs. Venomized Wolverine a great set for fans of Wolverine, as it not only features a minifigure of the beloved X-Men character, but it's also the first time LEGO has made a Venomized version of him. Last but not least, Spider-Man Vs. Mysterio: The Daily Bugle offers a stunning landscape and tons of cool minifigures, while introducing Venomized Captain America for the very first time.

Currently, there is only one Marvel set that is clearly aimed at a more adult audience, both for its build requirements and price. That set is:
-
Iron Man Mark 3 Collector's Edition
With 1,297 pieces, an 18+ age marker, and a $129 price tag, the Iron Man Mark 3 Collectors' Edition set isn't for everyone. However, it is a stunning representation of Tony Stark's classic Mark 3 suit, complete with an Iron Man minifigure to keep as a collectible or use in other sets.
