Rarity
Uncommon; while not mass-produced in hundreds of sets, it was included in moderately priced sets and as a promotional item.
Head
The head is a molded part of the microfigure body with printing representing Ant-Man's helmet, specifically the silver faceplate and red eye lenses.
Torso
Microscale torso with simplified pad printing representing the red and black suit textures of Scott Lang's Ant-Man costume.
Legs
Single non-articulated static base (stand) molded in Black, tapering down to a single-stud diameter peg.
Accessories
Typically none included for the microfigure itself, though it often serves as an accessory for full-sized minifigures like Giant-Man or Hank Pym.
Color Scheme
Primary Black with Silver, Dark Red, and Bright Red printing accents.
Printing Details
High-precision pad printing on a very small surface area. Design includes the helmet vents, chest harness, and belt detail.
Variants
There is a standard 2015 version and a 2018 variation (part 36125pb001) for the 'Ant-Man and the Wasp' sets which features different helmet printing.
Condition Notes
Prone to lost printing on the 'face' due to friction. The peg at the bottom can suffer from stress marks if forced into tight studs.
Estimated Value
$5.00 - $12.00 USD (Used/New). Price varies based on the specific printing variation.
Price (New)
Originally included in sets ranging from $19.99 (76039) to $29.99 (76051).
Compatible Sets
76039 Ant-Man Final Battle, 76051 Super Hero Airport Battle, and 76192 Avengers: Endgame Final Battle (as a trophy/statuette).
Character Background
Scott Lang, the second Ant-Man, utilizing Pym Particles to shrink to subatomic size while retaining his full-sized strength.
Design Notes
Utilizes the 'Trophy' or 'Microfigure' mold (part 90398) which allows for a figure that scales correctly with standard minifigures to represent shrinking.
Similar Minifigures
Shrunken Wasp (90398pb028), Nano-Iron Man (90398pb040), and sh184 Ant-Man (Standard Size).
Collectibility
High for Marvel completists. As a 'functional' scaling figure, it is highly desired for MOCs (My Own Creations) and action scenes.
History
Introduced LEGO's commitment to representing size-shifting characters accurately rather than just using a standard minifigure.
Interesting Facts
This specific piece is often used by fans to represent a 'Lego set within a Lego set' because of its size relative to a regular minifigure.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in the hand of a Giant-Man build or placed on a 1x2 jumper plate next to a full-sized Scott Lang figure.
Modification Potential
Excellent for micro-scale city dioramas or as architectural statues in larger builds.
Overall Assessment
A clever niche figure that perfectly captures the character's gimmick; an essential piece for any Marvel Cinemic Universe collection.
