Rarity
Common to Uncommon. While exclusive to certain sets, this figure was included in widely available Avengers: Endgame sets and a specific polybag, making it accessible to many collectors.
Head
Unique molded raccoon head piece in dark bluish gray with black eyes, white snout detailing, and snarling mouth. This specific mold is used across most Rocket Raccoon iterations but features varying paint applications.
Torso
White 'Quantum Suit' / Advanced Tech Suit with Avengers 'A' logo on the left chest. Red and black detailing with silver tech patterns. Features white arms and black hands.
Legs
Short, non-poseable legs in white. They are unprinted, representing the lower half of the Quantum Suit used for time travel in the film.
Accessories
Typically comes with a large black blaster (over-shoulder or hand-held) as seen in the image. Some versions may include a grey neck bracket to help with weapon mounting.
Color Scheme
Primary colors are White, Black, and Dark Bluish Gray with Red and Silver accents. This matches the cinematic 'Quantum Suit' aesthetic from the MCU.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso front and back. The face printing on the molded head includes detailed 'mask' markings around the eyes. There is no printing on the legs or arms.
Variants
This is the 'Quantum Suit' version. Other versions include his Ravager outfit (sh122), Vol. 2 grey suit (sh384), and the blue comic-inspired/Vol. 3 suit (sh911).
Condition Notes
The primary wear point is the paint on the ears and nose of the head piece, which can chip. White plastic is prone to yellowing if exposed to UV light.
Estimated Value
$6 - $12 USD (Used), $15 - $20 USD (New/Sealed conditions). Value is relatively stable as it is a specific movie tie-in.
Price (New)
Retail context: Set 76126 ($79.99) or Polybag 30452 ($4.99). The cost per figure in the polybag was extremely low.
Compatible Sets
76126 Avengers Ultimate Quinjet, 30452 Iron Man and Dum-E (Polybag variant), and 76144 Avengers Hulk Helicopter Rescue.
Character Background
Rocket is the hot-tempered pilot and weapons specialist of the Guardians of the Galaxy. In Avengers: Endgame, he wears this suit to travel through the Quantum Realm to participate in the 'Time Heist'.
Design Notes
The use of the specialized molded head compared to a standard minifigure head is a design staple for this character since 2014. The Quantum Suit torso was a 'shared' print used across many Endgame figures to maintain uniformity.
Similar Minifigures
sh563 (Captain America - Quantum Suit), sh568 (Thor - Quantum Suit), sh560 (Iron Man - Quantum Suit), and sh384 (Rocket - Vol. 2).
Collectibility
Moderate. It is essential for fans completing the 'Endgame' lineup, though the unprinted short legs make it less desirable than versions with full leg printing.
History
Launched as part of the massive marketing wave for Avengers: Endgame. This was the first time Rocket was seen in a 'uniform' matching the rest of the Avengers team.
Interesting Facts
The torso print used on this figure is virtually identical to the ones used for Captain America and Ant-Man in the same wave, showcasing LEGO's efficient 'team outfit' design strategy.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed alongside other Avengers in their Quantum Suits or inside the 76126 Quinjet. Use a 2x2 jumper plate to help him stand despite the lack of leg articulation.
Modification Potential
The head can be swapped onto a dark gray suit for a 'business' Rocket, or the torso can be used to create custom Quantum Suit characters like Nebula or Hawkeye.
Overall Assessment
A solid, movie-accurate figure that serves as a vital part of the Infinity Saga collection. While the legs are plain, the custom head mold remains one of LEGO's best non-human designs.
