LEGO has around 200 sets planned for 2026, with even more possibilities still unconfirmed, offering plenty for collectors of all kinds. Fans of popular franchises like Harry Potter, Ninjago, Disney, and Marvel will be especially excited. While there aren’t any LEGO sets based on the new Avengers: Doomsday movie yet, Marvel remains a strong focus with 12 confirmed sets and potentially 4 more on the way. Although these sets may appear disconnected, they actually suggest three key themes LEGO is planning to explore.
LEGO sets based on popular franchises usually aim to please a wide range of fans, though some features appeal more to specific groups. For instance, the LEGO Pokémon sets planned for 2026 will include kits for Pikachu, Eevee, and the original Kanto starters, each with a different price and building experience. LEGO Marvel sets follow this same approach, targeting diverse interests.

6 Out of 12 LEGO Marvel Sets for 2026 Are Dead on Target
LEGO Marvel’s 3 Targets for 2026 Explained
So far, LEGO has announced twelve Marvel sets for 2026. Six of these sets focus on unique, individual storylines, while the other six generally fall into one of three broader themes, though each offers a slightly different take.
- Movie Accurate LEGO Sets: These are all the sets that include scenes, characters, and elements from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
- Fresh New Firsts LEGO Sets: All the sets that introduce something new and unique that cannot be found elsewhere. Technically, this is the umbrella term for all the sets in 2026, but only a handful have truly one-of-a-kind pieces.
- AFOL Customers LEGO Sets: This encompasses all those LEGO sets that are meant for collectors and adult fans of LEGO (AFOL for short), meaning that they either require a certain building experience or are more expensive.

As a big LEGO and Spider-Man fan, I’ve been checking out the new sets, and a few really stand out. The Team Spidey Pirate Ship is a really cool mix of superheroes and pirates – it’s exciting for both new and long-time collectors! Then there’s the Spider-Man Car vs. Venomized Wolverine set, which is a must-have for Wolverine fans. It’s the first time LEGO has made a ‘Venomized’ version of him, which is awesome! Finally, the Spider-Man vs. Mysterio: The Daily Bugle set is incredible. It’s a really detailed build with tons of minifigures, and it also introduces Venomized Captain America for the very first time – a total surprise!
The Wolverine game from Marvel is scheduled for release in 2026, suggesting there could be more related games or content announced in the future.

Currently, only one Marvel LEGO set is specifically designed for adults, considering its complex build and higher cost. That set is:
- Iron Man Mark 3 Collectors’ Edition
- Price: $129.99
- Release Date: January 1, 2026
- Link to LEGO’s website
The Iron Man Mark 3 Collectors’ Edition set is a detailed build with 1,297 pieces, making it best suited for adults and experienced builders (age 18+). At $129, it’s a significant purchase, but offers an impressive recreation of Tony Stark’s iconic suit, and includes a collectible Iron Man minifigure that can also be used with other LEGO sets.
