LEGO capped off 2023 with the enormous Avengers Tower set, and they’re hitting the ground running in 2024 with several new releases that includes a pricey X-Men X-Jet. It’s inspired by Marvel Studios upcoming TV series X-Men ’97 on Disney+, which has spawned numerous toy releases despite not arriving in 2023 as originally intended. It’s also the first fully fledged X-Men ’97 set to launch from LEGO following some additions in their Minifigures Series 2 lineup.ย

Rogue, Gambit, Wolverine, Cyclops, Jean Gray, Beast, Cable, Bishop, Forge, and Morph are coming back to X-Men ’97 and will accompanied ย byย Nightcrawler and Sunspot.ย X-Men ’97ย follows Magneto leading the X-Men in Professor Xavier’s absence.
