LEGO 76175 Super Heroes Attack on the Spider Lair

Product Information

The other figures are alright, obviously one new one but similarly to above, the printing isn't particularly good. All LEGO® Marvel Spider-Man playsets are cool and collectible and give kids the chance to relive favorite superhero movie moments and create imaginative stories of their own.

All LEGO Marvel Spider-Man playsets are cool and collectible and give kids the chance to relive favorite superhero movie moments and create imaginative stories of their own. The rest of the lair makes use of a standard “pod” build. The design is modular, and thus easily expandable if you wanted to create a bigger custom display. However, I think this computer could have been further separated from Batcomputer designs, simply by adjusting the screen arrangement. This configuration seems extremely familiar and Spider-Man deserved something tailored more specifically to him. The seat seems very basic too, although some appealing details are present. Peter Parker's camera and the video game controller are particularly fun. With so many alternate universe versions of Spider-Man (Spider-verse), it seems like this was a natural evolution for LEGO to take to try and ramp up the collectability of the entire theme and make increase the likelihood of people turning around and buying some of the older sets too.

OK, we get it, Venom is a Spider-Man villain...there are a PLETHORA of others though, LEGO, yeah...I’m talking to you, don’t you think we’ve had enough Venom figures by now? Maybe throw us Marvel Superfans something else? The colour scheme of green and purple is attractive and I like the contrasting horns which are situated towards the front. The thrusters mounted on the underside look reasonable too. This vehicle omits dedicated control surfaces, although that reflects the source material as Green Goblin generally directs his glider by shifting his weight. Fortunately, there is sufficient space where he can stand. LEGO® components satisfy stringent industry standards to ensure they are consistent, compatible and connect and pull apart correctly every time – it's been that way since 1958. This computer, to me, is honestly the coolest part of this set. It is fitted with so many fun tidbits and references to so many different things. From top left to bottom right, we have SpiderDrone analysis (for the drones included in the set), Iron Spider’s Arm data, JJJ committing corporate bullying, SpiderSuit databases, SpiderSuit analysis and a Spider-Man Video game.

Spider-Man’s spectacular headquarters measure over 5 in. (14 cm) high, 16 in. (41 cm) long and 6 in. (17 cm) wide and combine easily with other LEGO® Marvel Spider-Man sets. Spider-Man’s spectacular headquarters measure over 5 in. (14 cm) high, 16 in. (41 cm) long and 6 in. (17 cm) wide and combine easily with other LEGO Marvel Spider-Man sets. To the right is a slightly troubling inclusion – a Spider-Prison pod. Why would Spider-Man want to incarcerate his foes in his lair? Isn’t he in legal trouble often enough already? Green Goblin is almost invariably accompanied by his Goblin Glider, the design of which has changed frequently. This example is relatively large and features angular wings, supported by rigid A-frame elements underneath. The resulting shape seems fittingly intimidating, especially in combination with the 2x3 pentagonal tile at the centre which displays decorative yellow eyes.

LEGO components are dropped, heated, crushed, twisted and analyzed to make sure they fulfill rigorous global safety standards. The price is absolutely disgusting and the only reason I got it is because (I had Birthday Vouchers and) the Stealth/Big Time Suit (no idea why they are calling it Ultimate Spider-Man) is my favourite Spider-Man costume of all time, so I am absolutely DELIGHTED to have this figure, and indeed a pretty good version at that. A little arm printing would have really set it off, but other than that it's perfect. On the plus side, this figure has some interesting decor. It’s a striking costume design that carries over well into LEGO form. Even if that was out of the question, swapping out Venom for just one brand new villain would also have sweetened the deal. Or even Green Goblin, who we’ve had several times before, even if this is a new version. As it is, there are only really two minifigures here worth your time – at least if you own any other Spider-Man sets. If this is your one and only, well, let’s face it: there are way better options for your first dive into the Spider-verse. — Price — Spider-Man possesses various vehicles throughout the Marvel Super Heroes range and his concealed lair contains a maintenance area for one such vehicle. The colour combination of dark blue and red continues here to good effect and I like the trans-yellow lights beneath the motorcycle. Additionally, this vehicle can rotate on its elevated plinth and seems accordingly attractive.

Surrounding the lair are Spider-Man’s work tools, as well as a rather admittedly flimsy attempt at a stand for the Iron Spider’s spider arms. I’m not sure what the thought process was here for these stands, maybe so they can be laid down when not in use? It certainly feels cheap though. Of course, the view from behind is considerably worse as some unsightly colours are visible, notably including a conspicuous trans-green plate at the centre. However, the base structure does feel exceptionally robust and the entire model is easily transportable, although that is of limited importance for location-based sets which are typically going to remain stationary.Despite sharing similarities in subject and organisation, Spider-Man's lair appears significantly brighter than Batman's famous Batcave. The red and dark blue colour scheme looks excellent and I was pleasantly surprised by the size of this model, measuring 41cm wide. Moreover, the integration of various sections seems relatively successful, particularly as the same trans-light blue accents appear repeatedly.
