Spoiler Alert: Avengers: Age of Ultron LEGO sets reveal new plot details

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

I have put together so many damn LEGO sets for my kids over the past eight years that I still have thoughts about craggling them together so they don't break again.  Still, I do enjoy the finished product once you can look at it and display it and, occassionally, play with it.  So, when new LEGO sets are announced for big feature films each year, we can look to them for plot hints and character designs that will be featured in the movies themselves.

Aside from the STAR WARS: EPISODE VII sets coming later this year, I am excited for the AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON sets that have just been announced.  We have new looks at five of the sets that tie into Joss Whedon's film which all seem to center on moments we have seen snippets from in both trailers to date.  The descriptions for the sets give us a new glimpse into locations from the film like the country of Sovokia, the motivation behind the big battle between the Hulkbuster and Bruce Banner's alter ego, and even the return of HYDRA.

Nothing groundbreaking here, but it does help flesh out a little more about the film that has so far just been a big tease in the literal sense of the word.  Hopefully more will be revealed in the next few months as we approach the release of the film on May 1, 2015.

Check out the LEGO sets along with their descriptions below.
