Avengers: Infinity War - Leaked LEGO Set Features A Daredevil Easter Egg
Will the Defenders actually get an MCU mention?
It feels like every time there's a big MCU movie release, LEGO release tie-in sets that reveal something heavily spoilerish that fans get awfully excited or irate about. None came much bigger than the Giant Man reveal from Captain America: Civil War, but the revelation that we might be getting a comics accurate Iron Spider in Infinity War is a pretty big one too.
On top of that reveal - which is just part of the narrative detail featured in the sets - there's also a Daredevil Easter Egg, which has been spotted by a particularly eagle-eyed fan.
Instagram user the_marvelous_guy has posted about the reference, which can be found in one of the upcoming sets featuring an attack by Black Dwarf and Ebony Maw on Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum in New York. The building has a news-stand attached with a nice little nod to Hell's Kitchen's most famous hero...
Thus far, there's been no real reference in the MCU to the existence of the Netflix heroes - thanks in part to the logistics of bringing the timelines together, apparently - even though the shows have references events in the movies. But there's always been hope from fans that that will change in the future.
Perhaps this might reflect that change of mentality, unless it's just LEGO throwing in a little of their own wishful thinking?
