Lego Marvel Avengers: Code Red
What's the Story?
In LEGO MARVEL AVENGERS: CODE RED both superheroes and villains with the word "Red" in their name begin to mysteriously disappear. The Avengers must team up to find out what's going on, and to help rescue those taken by a villain known as The Collector.
Is It Any Good?
This special is a whirlwind of fast-paced Avengers action sequences that are sure to captivate young viewers. The inclusion of an ever-expanding roster of superheroes, including the unexpected appearance of Wolverine from the DC universe, adds an extra layer of excitement to LEGO Marvel Avengers: Code Red. The special maintains the signature LEGO humor, ensuring that the tone remains light and enjoyable without venturing into frightening territory. Drawing parallels with The LEGO Movie, this installment explores the theme of embracing imperfection, using The Collector's obsession with pristine conditions as a foil. The show also delivers important messages about communication and the value of recycling and reusing, encouraging young audiences to consider sustainability over wastefulness.
