LEGO Captain America Civil War is a subtheme of Marvel initially released in 2016 based on the film Captain America: Civil War produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. Sets are based on the film's plot in which political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability when the actions of the Avengers lead to collateral damage. This deeply divides members of the team as Captain America believes superheroes should remain free to defend humanity without government interference and Iron Man sharply disagrees and supports oversight.
2015 LEGO Sets
In 2015, LEGO broadened its portfolio with new and returning themes. LEGO Dimensions launched as a toys-to-life crossover linking dozens of franchises including DC, The Lord of the Rings, and Doctor Who. New lines such as Elves, Jurassic World, Scooby-Doo, and Speed Champions debuted, while BIONICLE and Pirates returned in refreshed forms. City marked ten years under its modern branding, and Star Wars supported The Force Awakens with a major release wave. Meanwhile, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and The Hobbit concluded as LEGO shifted toward newer properties.
