You survived Endgame. You resisted the Hot Toys figures. You ignored that overpriced Spider-Verse hoodie. You thought you were finally free. But no. LEGO had other plans. With the new Iron Spider bust, they’ve cooked up a brutal cocktail of nostalgia, collector FOMO, and brick-based dopamine.
Modeled afterPeter’s nanotech suit from Infinity War, this bust comes with posable mechanical limbs, a detailed mini-fig with arm printing (finally), and just enough shelf presence to make your Funko Pops feel insecure. So yeah, maybe you were done. But now you’re pre-ordering. BecauseLEGOsaid jump, and you said, “thwip.”
Right, What’s All This, Then?
The set recreates Spidey’s tricked-out nanotech suit from Infinity War, you know, the one Tony gave him right before everything went sideways. At 379 pieces, it’s not the biggest LEGO set ever, but what it lacks in brick count it makes up for in shelf appeal. The finished bust stands about 6.5 inches tall and 7.5 inches wide. Unlike those helmet-only sets LEGO’s been pumping out, this one includes the upper torso too, which just looks way better on display.
The coolest thing about it is probably that the mechanical spider arms can move around. You can pose them however you want, which means you can make your Spider-Man look as menacing or as dorky as suits your mood. The head rotates too, so you can have him judgmentally side-eyeing your other collectibles.
LEGO’s throwing in two different display bases with name plaques. One has a spot for the included minifigure, while the other gives you a cleaner look. Speaking of that minifigure, it’s apparently got arm printing, which is a big deal if you’re into that sort of thing. Previous Iron Spider minifigs looked like they skipped arm day at the gym, so this is a nice upgrade.
It’s All Part Of A Bigger Plan (That I’m Totally Falling For)
This isn’t just some random one-off set. LEGO’s launching a whole Marvel Mini Bust Collection, starting with this and an Iron Man MK4 Bust (set 76327). They’re designed to go together, playing up that whole mentor-mentee relationship that made us all cry when… well, you know. The busts are smaller than those massive helmets LEGO’s been selling, which means you might actually have room for them. My LEGO display shelf is already sagging in the middle, so I appreciate the more compact approach.
What’s The Damage?
Alright, let’s talk money. It’s $59.99 in the US (or £54.99/€59.99/AU$99.99/CAD$79.99 for you international folks). Is that a lot for 379 pieces? Yeah, kinda. The price-per-piece ratio isn’t great. But here’s how I justify it to myself: You’re getting an exclusive minifigure with fancy arm printing. You’re getting a display piece that doesn’t require its own zip code. And most importantly, you’re getting Spider-Man.
Pre-orders are open now, but the set won’t ship until Jul 09, 2025. That’s a long wait, but it gives you plenty of time to clear space and convince yourself you totally need this.
