300IQ LEGO Marvel Upgrades…

Today I'm taking basic LEGO Marvel minifigures and giving them 300 IQ upgrades. Each upgrade will get bigger as we go. Now let's begin with Sue Storm, and since she is the invisible woman, we can use this transparent blue piece to swap out one of her arms to make it invisible. And now her superpowers look a little better in Lego form, and I'll be upgrading more Fantastic Four members later in this video. Now the Black Panther's weapon of choice are these long silver claws, which look pretty cool, but they are the very same piece and color used for Wolverine's claws, so what if we switch things up with a black set of claws to give to the Black Panther? Now the most common web shooter for Spider-Man are the ones in his hands right now, and they can be launched, which is pretty cool. But there's a ton of more options that we can look at like these web builds right here Which make it look like spider-man's firing webs from his wrists There's also this web piece right here Which is made of a soft plastic so that you can connect two of them together to build some sort of cocoon of webs to capture Spider-man's and then there are these long web pieces which you can connect to buildings to make it look like spider-man's swinging through the city Now if you've ever built or owned a Lego Loki minifigure, you'd know that his staff isn't very accurate The old ones just oversized and awkward and the new one looks nothing like the real staff So I I grabbed some Lego parts from my collection to build my own version and I started by building the staff piece and then I added this clip piece with a bar on it and then I added a Lego claw piece in this cool gold color. And to finish the staff I added the Mind Stone and I think this looks much better for Lego Loki. Now let's upgrade our second Fantastic Four member, and that is Johnny Storm, also known as the Human Torch. Now the LEGO set he came and gave him some basic fire pieces, but I think we could do better. There is a much larger fire piece on this LEGO Captain Marvel minifigure, so we can add that to Johnny Storm to give him a huge upgrade. And this Ghost Rider has a brand new fire piece element on his hands that's a lot more interesting because there's a stud on the end, which means we can add even more fire to the minifigure, which makes it look like Johnny Storm's flying through the air. We could also take it a step too far by adding this fire piece off of Ghost Ghost Rider's head to Johnny Storm's hair, which I think looks a little silly. But now we've made two of the Fantastic Four members just a little more fantastic. Now, did you know that there is one thing in common with pretty much every Captain America minifigure? Lego does not like to give Captain America detailing on his legs, which is a shame. So I picked out three different pairs of Lego minifigure legs that could be a solution. We'll start with this pair of legs that has a belt on it first, but no matter what Captain America you put it on, it gives the Captain two belts, which isn't very tactical for a super soldier. Next, we could try this pair of legs with red boots. So I think this set of legs with brown boots and blue pants looks the best on Captain America. It makes him look way better. Now let's spend some time making some 300 IQ upgrades to Doctor Strange. Now we're pretty familiar with the portals Doctor Strange makes to travel from place to place. So what if I told you we can make a giant portal for Doctor Strange with only a few pieces? Now the LEGO Spider-Verse collectible minifigure series came with these interesting transparent orange pieces, which are conveniently the same color as Doctor Strange's portal. If we take a ton of these orange Lego minifigure stands and connect them to each other, we can slightly angle them. And by adding enough, we can create an entire circle, which can be used as a new type of portal for Doctor Strange or a portal for someone traveling through the Spider-Verse. Now, sometimes Doctor Strange wears gloves and they're actually super easy to replicate in Lego. Now, instead of just regular yellow Lego minifigure hands, you wanna use these orangish yellow hands as Doctor Strange's gloves. And now that I actually see it on the minifigure, I don't like it at all. It makes me uncomfortable for some reason. Now, pretty much any new Doctor Strange minifigure comes with these orange spell pieces but the very first Dr. Strange minifigure came with these clear pieces with some spell detailing on them which I think look pretty cool and I wish we still had something like this. I mean there's even these fan pieces with some spell casting on them. Now we've been seeing less and less of the soft cloth texture for our capes and more and more of these rubber capes. Which also means Dr. Strange has a rubber cape, and it's a lot different looking than the cloth cape. Now, most would argue that the cloth capes are better, but in the case of Dr. Strange, I think that the rubber cape that Dr. Strange has fits him better, as it's a semi-sentient cape, and it gives it more detail in life. Now, let's give Iron Man and War Machine some 300 IQ upgrades. We'll start with Lego Iron Man, and we'll swap out this basic Iron Man figure with one with arm printing. Next we can build and attach this flight accessory to Iron Man which gives him some boosted flight power. Then we can give him an Iron Man themed shield that matches his suit and then we'll also add a power blast to the other hand. But to really seal the deal of flight we'll add these thrusters to the bottom of his feet to make it look like a complete Iron Man upgrade. Now upgrading Lego War Machine is a lot simpler because the only real issue is this cannon back here it's just way too small. Now we could take the over accessorized route like this War Machine minifigure has with a stud launcher on one side three upside down roller skates on the other Now let's take a much simpler route with these 5 LEGO pieces which we can use to assemble a little machine gun that's much larger than our first and we can equip it to the back of War Machine to make him look much better. And now we have a 300 IQ War Machine and Iron Man duo. Now there are quite a few different variations of the Falcon minifigure. We have the oldest which has these straight plastic wings with no poseability. And then we have this version from the Avengers Tower which has some pretty bulky and uncomfortable wings. Then we have the newest version of the wings which is the most flexible and probably the So what if we remove this newest set of wings and keep the modern Falcon minifigure and add the oldest version of Falcon's wings and then add a newer version of the Red Wing drone to build a pretty unique version of the Falcon? Now let's build two LEGO Marvel superheroes LEGO hasn't made yet, the first being Sentry. Now we'll take the entire body from the Sinestro minifigure, which gives us a pretty good leg up. Then we'll add a dark blue cape, which looks really good of that yellow color, and then we'll add a pretty generic minifigure head. And then I picked out and ordered this yellow hairpiece, which I thought would work great for Sentry, but after putting it on the minifigure, it's just too yellow. So if we take this minifigure hairpiece from Thor and add it to our custom Sentry, it'll look much better than the original one. Then our next superhero we'll build is Wonder Man. Now we'll begin by using this pair of legs from this Lego Spider-Man suit. Then conveniently there's a torso of a black suit and a red W that we can use for Wonder Man. But we'll swap the arms out to match the real suit and then we'll take this Lego blade minifigure and remove the head and add it to our Wonder Man minifigure. Then to complete our custom Wonder Man minifigure we'll give him this hair piece and now we have two custom Lego superheroes. When I got this Lego Miles Morales minifigure I thought it was interesting that he had lightning details on his arms which I thought would be perfect Thor so we had to make this upgrade happen. And if you swap the hands out for Thor's hands with these arms they look perfect for the god of thunder. We can also make it cooler by adding a lightning bolt in his hand like he's harnessing the power of lightning. Or we can place Mjolnir in his hand being struck by lightning but if we want to take it to the next level we can have it look like Mjolnir's being thrown and getting struck by lightning. Now I have always been disappointed by the green goblin and his glider so let's upgrade him. We can start things off with a detailed armored pair of goblin legs and then we can add the green goblin's torso. And because the torso hints at having a cape, let's add this Now we can add this nice looking purple cape to the green goblin. Then we can add this armored goblin mask and cover things up with a goblin hood which really sells the look. We can give the goblin a pumpkin grenade and then let's build him an ultimate looking goblin glider with bigger wings and more spikes to finally create my ideal green goblin minifigure. Now let's give Scarlet Witch some 300 IQ upgrades. Let's start with her magic. Now she typically gets these pink flames, which are a lot different than the type of magic we see Doctor Strange wield. But I think we can give her a better set of tools using some of these pink translucent parts. And when we add these two flame pieces in pink, they look much better. But the best possible way to show off Scarlet Witch's magic is these dark translucent red pieces, and you'll see why when I attach them to her minifigure. Now most Lego Scarlet Witch minifigures are pretty boring, so we'll switch to this one that isn't from here on out. We'll give her those magic spells and then let's Let me show you a cool trick we can do with her legs. If we detach the legs from each other and attach them to this Lego piece with a stud on its side, we can make it look like Scarlet Witch is levitating in the air. We can use the same exact technique for Doctor Strange as well. Now we can finish the Fantastic Four upgrades. You'll notice that Mr. Fantastic has long legs but not long arms, so we can fix that by using this little contraption right here and pressing it into Mr. Fantastic's arm socket. And after doing that, we can attach a blue big figure arm to Mr. Fantastic. Unfortunately, the right color doesn't exist, but this is close enough. So now we have a completely elongated and stretched out Mr. Fantastic. We can also use the same technique to upgrade the thing, but we'll remove the glove. And now we have a fantastic four with 300 IQ upgrades. Now, what if we made Groot giant again? To answer that question, I got to work assembling a humongous Lego Groot build, and it certainly looks cool. And now we've successfully built 300 IQ Lego Marvel upgrades.
