If you can hardly wait to put your hands on a LEGO SUPER HEROES Iron Man (scheduled to be released later in the summer), you might want to try your luck on eBay. Through some mysterious means there are some eBay sellers who are ahead of the game and are able to offer minifigures before the official release date. 🙄
To be the first to own an official Marvel LEGO SUPER HEROES minifigure comes with hefty price though; I have been watching the LEGO Iron Man listings on eBay this past week, and they are going for anywhere between $15-$35. So, yeah, these are not for everyone. 🙁
But if you have money burning your pocket, and you just have to have that Iron Man before anyone else, this would be a great option for you. And since these are listed in an auction format – who knows? – you may luck out and win one of these iconic characters for a great price! 😛
Besides the official LEGO Iron Man, I have also seen listings for Thor, Captain America and Wolverine. If you are planning to bid on any of these listings, make sure you check the shipping fees and the seller’s feedback. Good luck! 😉
I have been especially watching two sellers; xdelacru and azulstuff. Both have been listing several LEGO Marvel minifigures, and there will likely be more sellers joining in as we get closer to the official release date. Here are some of the current LEGO SUPER HEROES Marvel minifig listings:

I hd seen the wolverine figure about a month ago very strange how there already on eBay and the sets haven’t come out yet!
Yeah, wonder how these sellers get them so early. Maybe they have some super-special connections. 😕
For those prices, I’d rather wait to get the whole set to get more bang for your buck.
Allen, I would say the same thing, but some people just can’t wait, and have to have it first! 😉
Hey Anna
So are these really the “real” thing or are they a very clever custom?
If real I guess Lego has a bit of a security issue in the Mexico factory.
Bummer, but I guess it’s hard to keep track of all those little plastic bits.
Makes me appreciate how tight their security has been up until now.

Inger, yep, they are the real thing! I’m really not sure how these sellers get their hands on these minifigs before the actual release date, but they all have 100% feedback and have been around for a while. Perhaps they have special contacts or arrangements. I don’t think anyone would be crazy enough to risk their job with LEGO to make a few bucks. Not in this economy. 🙁
OK? not the best detail on the Iron Man face and LEGO can do better on the body paint . And then I think the Wolverine hair should be A BIT smaller. Who agrees ? Over all the Captain America is Offically The Best!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
