TheOrcKing Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 USA Today revealed the first Superman set for the DC SUPERHEROES line based on the upcoming "Man of Steel" film. Here's the news post on TheBrickFan. Umm......huh. I imagined something else entirely. Heck, the sets name is bigger than the set itself. Suppose it is a cheap way to get both Superman and General Zod. First time I remember seeing a 6-stud wide civilian car in a LEGO set outside of the CREATOR theme. And that antenna tower just sitting there seems wierd. I guess for $13 you could have worse. And I do like that car a little bit. Quote
Doofy McGee Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I'll get it just for Zod. I love collecting the DC Super Heroes line. Maybe the movie will offer an explanation for the antenna tower. As it stands, it is kind of odd. Quote
Doofy McGee Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Oh, and thanks for the post! I have been craving details on these new sets! I'm glad to see Superman is different from the one in 6862. Quote
jaisonline Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Despite the smallish size, not bad for $12.99 retail. 1 car, 2 minifigs, and a pole for Zod to throw around with the car. Can you say, " kneel before Lego Zod". Ha Quote
jaisonline Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Can anyone tell if this Supes minifigs is different from the on in the current 6682 Armor Lex set? Looks like it. If so, this should be good for us 6682 owners... Quote
Doofy McGee Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 He is definitely different in the torso. It looks like it may be a darker blue too. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted January 31, 2013 Author Posted January 31, 2013 I'll get it just for Zod. I love collecting the DC Super Heroes line. Maybe the movie will offer an explanation for the antenna tower. As it stands, it is kind of odd. I'm sure it is from a fight scene atop some skyscraper like in the original "Superman 2" movie. Can you say, " kneel before Lego Zod". Ha Ha ha, yeah. I would just get this one for General Zod alone. Superman is cool, but come on. GENERAL ZOD!!!! Quote

That superman looks like a dork, did you see all the frilly white stuff on him!?! What heck's with that!! I thought they were actually going to give us something we'd want to buy this time!! Well.... I hope those other sets will be better than this one, and I also hope they'll have the sense to give us better figs than what I'm looking at now..... DISGUSTING!!! Quote
icephoenix181 Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Seems like a plausible enough scene to me. Two kryptonians fighting and they can either throw the car as a weapon or rip out the steel beam as a weapon. Quote
dunkers97 Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Nice! I've been wondering what the superman sets would look like, and here's a good little sample. I can't wait till the movie comes out! Quote
Darth Lego Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 It looks okay. We will find out how good it really is when it comes out. Quote
cflannagan Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Yeah, seem a bit underwhelming for me. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted January 31, 2013 Author Posted January 31, 2013 Yeah, seem a bit underwhelming for me. Like I said, the name of the set sounds bigger than the set itself. It is a little underwhelming. Quote
cvail8 Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Meh, for the cheap set in the line it's not too bad I guess. You'll probably be able to flip the figs and double your money. Quote
IrishGuy66 Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 It looks okay. We will find out how good it really is when it comes out. I will still buy this cheap little set, because for one.... It's a cheap little set!! Two.... It does come with Zod!! That Superman still disappoints me though. :( Quote
Blackjack Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 This is an expensive set when all you get are TWO MARGINAL MINIFIGURES!!!! Quote
