It is the workplace of Peter Parker, id Ben Urich, Betty Brant's Robbie Robertson and the very director JJJ himself! It was in that first story that the famous phrase Bring me some Spider-Man pictures was uttered!

The new set # 76181 Daily Bugle

The model of the Daily Bugle that can be created by building the new LEGO Marvel set # 76178 Daily Bugle is incredibly detailed both inside and outside. It is spread over 4 floors and includes the front sidewalk, the back alley and even a newsstand next to the entrance to the building, a typical New York taxi and Spider-Man's car. The interior of the model, on the other hand, is modular, i.e. it is possible to remove walls and separate the various floors from each other to be able to play inside or to reproduce one of the many scenes seen in the various universes in which Spider-Man lived his adventures. br>
And more. The front façade has been designed in such a way that the effects of an explosion occurring in the hallway of the main entrance can be simulated, just as the editorial offices on the first floor have been faithfully reproduced, with desks, computers, monitors and displays. for news but also the break room with vending machines, donuts and other snacks.

Moving to the second floor, we find the evil Green Goblin flying in and out of his glider in Peter Parker's office where his camera lies waiting for the next story. Finally, on the top floor are the offices of Betty Brant and J. Jonah Jameson.

The details don't stop at the building, as the LEGO Marvel # 76178 Daily Bugle set includes twenty-five (yes, you read well, 25) minifigures: in addition to various versions of Peter Parker (Spider-Man, Miles Morales, Spider-Ham) and Peter Parker himself, we find those of various among his friends and enemies: Fire Star, Blade, Doc Octopus, J .

Returning to the set, it must be said that yes it is a real modular style building consisting of 3 floors and resembling in some ways the recent LEGO Ninjago set # 71741 Ninjago Gardens (we talked about it in this article), complete with a buildable fire escape and the iconic red color, typical of the many films set in New York that we have all certainly seen. Not only, as mentioned above, it is modular inside to be able to access it better and make the gaming experience more engaging, but it is also modular in the sense that the typical 1 × 2 bricks with pin holes have been included in the base. Technic, thanks to which it will be possible to combine the Daily Bugle building with the other modular buildings of the Creator Expert line, thus making the building an integral part of our brick cities, as explained in this video-review by former LEGO designer Tiago Catarino

Staying outside, on the roof we can find the large sign with the buildable writing “Daily Bugle” and a large telecommunications antenna. Also on the outside but on the front side, we find the large display of a mega-screen that broadcasts news videos and further down, on the sidewalk, we find a buildable newsstand where copies of the newspaper are on sale. The Spider-Man buggy spider web on one side of the building enriches its look and increases its details.

As for the twenty-five minifigures included in the set, some are simply present as if they were simple characters playing, others, on the other hand, are equipped with accessories or constructible “contexts”. For example, the Doc Octopus minifigure "mounts" on its shoulders the entire structure of the robotic tentacles to which it owes its name, while that of the Sandman is complete with a buildable sand vortex from which it comes out with a threatening manner. Green Goblin flies on his iconic glider and Fire-Star is all "fire and flames". Many of the minifigures included in the set are in their debut and will certainly be the cross and delight of collectors of Marvel characters in the form of LEGO minifigures.

The LEGO Designer who designed the set, Mark Stafford, said:

“I was seven when I received my first Spider-Man comic, and I've been imagining myself making a Daily Bugle LEGO model ever since and having Spidey and his Amazing Friends in conflict with his various enemies . One of my favorite elements is the Green Goblin that flies into the building through the window. Being able to design a frozen moment of action like this in a LEGO set has always been a dream and I finally managed to make it happen! "
