LEGO Deadpool

With the very first trailer for the third Deadpool movie and the character's debut in the MCU possibly releasing during the Super Bowl, it's a good time to look at Deadpool's LEGO® history. The Merc with a Mouth isn't exactly kid-friendly, but he's made some notable appearances in LEGO-from. The first was way back in 2012, when the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes theme was first introduced. Deadpool appeared in the X-Men themed set 6899: Wolverine's Chopper Showdown. Deadpool joined his mutant friend Logan for his only physical LEGO appearance.

The following year, TT Games brought the world of LEGO Marvel to life in the beloved LEGO Marvel Super Heroes game. Deadpool helped narrate a series of side quests featuring some of Marvel's strangest characters. Red Brick became Deadpool Red Bricks and could be purchased from Deadpool aboard the SHEILD Helicarrier.

In 2017, Deadpool became Deadpool Duck and San Diego Comic-Con's first Deadpool-themed exclusive minifigure. This was given away during SDCC through a lottery system. The character is an amalgamation of Deadpool and Howard the Duck, while the minifigure reuses Donald the Duck's head.

A Deadpool variant would also be used for another exclusive San Diego Comic-Con minifigure in 2018. This time, Deadpool got a western makeover to become Sheriff Deadpool, complete with a Stetson hat and a rootin' tootin' mustache.

LEGO sets inspired by movies have a reputation for ruining important moments or not having anything to do with them at all. So in 2016, Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds used this to promote the first Deadpool movie and shared a number of 'sets' based on the Deadpool movie. Set 6969: Deadpool Space Squid Shark Balloon Battle and set 2016: Deadpool Hotdog Moose and Owl.

Deadpool's LEGO future is uncertain. The mature tone of the character would make it difficult to see him appear in simple playsets. Aside from perhaps a bust or LEGO Art set, it would be just as difficult to feature the character in an 18+ set. That's a shame, because a buildable Deadpool figure would be pretty cool and a great addition to the recent buildable Wolverine. The untitled Deadpool movie will be released later this year.
