Lego have come up trumps with these giant figures based on the Avengers characters (£9.86 each from Argos).
Similar in style to the MegaBloks giant figures, it comes as an initial surprise to find they’re not made of ordinary Lego blocks. Instead, they’re constructed of a new mix of panels, clasps and poles, making them light, but also a lot taller than a usual Lego model would be.
Nice and easy to build, these characters look really cool, and are great to play with. And a lovely added touch, if you get more than one of these characters, you can mash them up to create megamix versions.
Hulk, Iron Man and Captain America are available.

The DC versions are good too. Importantly, that set includes Batman.
