Marvel Super Heroes
Year Released
2016 - Debuted in the set 'Super Hero Airport Battle' (76051)
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare - This figure was exclusive to a single high-priced set and remains the only LEGO representation of Giant-Man in this specific suit style.
Head
The complete figure features a light flesh head with a smirk and stubble (6133909), though only the sand-blue neck post is visible in this image. It is usually topped with a unique silver and red Ant-Man helmet (Part 23186).
Torso
Black with silver and dark red piping, representing the MCU 'Civil War' suit. The printing features a triangular silver pattern in the center and detailed muscular definition. Arms are black and hands are black.
Legs
The full figure includes black legs with dark red and silver printed armor details on the front. In the provided image, the legs are missing.
Accessories
When complete, this figure typically comes with no separate handheld accessories, as the 'Giant-Man' scale is intended to be the focus. It uses a unique helmet mold.
Color Scheme
Primary colors are Black, Silver, and Dark Red. The silver provides a metallic sheen characteristic of the Pym Technologies design.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso front and back. The alignment is usually precise, capturing the complex geometric lines of the suit's tubing and chest plate.
Variants
There are micro-figure versions (statue-scale) of this suit, but this sh221 is the only minifigure-scale version of the Civil War design.
Condition Notes
The torso is prone to 'torso cracking' at the sides under the arms if played with heavily. The silver printing can rub off over time with frequent handling.
Estimated Value
New Complete: $25-$35 USD; Used Complete: $18-$25 USD; Torso/Arms only (as shown): $8-$12 USD.
Price (New)
The original set (76051) retailed for $79.99 USD in 2016.

Character Background
Scott Lang, the second Ant-Man, famously bypassed the regulator to grow into 'Giant-Man' during the airport battle in Captain America: Civil War to distract Team Iron Man.
Design Notes
Significant for being part of the 'Giant-Man' build, where this minifigure stands atop a brick-built version of itself to represent the scale shift.
Similar Minifigures
sh201 Ant-Man (Final Battle version), sh407 Ant-Man (Quantum Realm suit), sh514 Ant-Man (Ant-Man and the Wasp).
Collectibility
High demand among MCU collectors due to its exclusivity to a retired large set and the popularity of the Civil War film.
History
Released during the peak of the MCU's 'Phase 3' LEGO line, marking the first time LEGO attempted a two-scale character representation in one set.
Interesting Facts
The printing on the torso accurately reflects the updated helmet-less tech Scott uses after his standalone movie, featuring more 'tech' and less 'industrial' aesthetic.
Display Suggestions
Display inside the brick-built Giant-Man from set 76051 or paired with a Captain America and Winter Soldier figure to recreate the airport tarmac scene.
Modification Potential
The torso is excellent for custom 'black-suit' superhero MOCs or tech-based spies.
Overall Assessment
This is a premium MCU minifigure torso. While the figure in the image is incomplete (missing head, helmet, and legs), the torso remains a highly desirable part for collectors looking to repair or complete an sh221.
