Five minifigs in a Thor set — including Gladiator Thor, Hulk in arena gear, and the Grandmaster — is the kind of character haul that makes this worth picking up before it disappears.
Is the price fair?A+Strong roster at a price point that didn't push back — easy A+.
Will you love it?C+Minifig gold, middling build — depends entirely on why you're buying.
Holds its value?CDecent secondary interest in the figs, but the set itself doesn't compound.
The Full Take
The Arena Clash leans hard into Ragnarok's gladiator aesthetic, and LEGO® pulled the character lineup off better than most Marvel sets of this era. Five minifigs anchored by the Grandmaster and two distinct hero variants is a serious roster. The build itself is more functional than inspired — staging for a fight scene rather than something you'd linger over — but as a vehicle for delivering these characters it does the job. At $59.99 on release, this was genuinely well-priced for what Marvel collectors were chasing. The set won't blow anyone away as a display centerpiece, but the minifig density makes it hard to dismiss.
