According to Comic Book Resources and the Lego fan site Brickfan, the "Ant-Man" Lego set entitled "Final Battle" reveals that one of the main characters from the movie Hank Pym is wearing his own Ant-Man suit, or at least his minifig is. It makes sense considering Pym was the original Ant-Man.
The movie will most likely have flashbacks that will show Pym's complicated past as a superhero, complete with cameos of Agent Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) and Iron Man's dad, Howard Stark (John Slattery).
The "Final Battle" Lego set includes three minifigs -- Ant-Man, Hank Pym, and Yellow Jacket -- plus 183 Lego pieces. The set, which retails for $20 (about £13, AU$26), hits stores on June 1.
