The LEGO! Yeah, movie versions. A let down at this point. But there's every chance of different looks for the main characters, LEGO does it a lot.

That's the kind of thing I would have absolutely ACHED for, as a kid, but would not have wanted anyone to buy for me. They got the top of the Baxter Building wrong!!

I got one at the swapmeet when I was little. I loved it. Somehow it was one of the few toys that didn't get saved. My parents gave me a newish (box is banged up but the pieces have never been punched or put together) one for my birthday a couple years ago. I'm still trying to figure out how to display it.

Yep, I had one of those and got A LOT of play time out of it. One thing I really liked about it was that it included SO many of the Marvel characters, and in a neat touch they had the hero on one side and the alter-ego on the other.

I had the Marvel World, too. Can't quite remember what happened to it... A bunch of things (including all of my Star Wars toys) were stolen from storage when I was younger, so the memories are bittersweet!

Was there a smaller one? I remember having something like this but with only 2 buildings - the Bugle and another skyscraper - and not as many characters.

That is cool. I particularly like the "I'm really frickin' starvin'!" version of Galactus.

"Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves?" - Oddball, KELLY'S HEROES
Not exactly OT for the usual stuff posted in this thread, but thought some of you would get a kick out of a conversion kit that turns a typical 1/35 scale M4A3 Sherman Tank plastic model into Donald Sutherland character's ride from the movie KELLY HEROES:
[Formations Link]
[HobbyLink Japan Link] (More detailed description)
Edit - Added the Formations link since it would be cheaper ordering from them, than paying shipping from Japan.
