tormentalous Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 There is a new video showing the Superman: Battle of Smallville (76003) and the Superman: Black Zero Escape (76009) sets. http://www.thebrickfan.com/more-lego-dc-universe-man-of-steel-set-images/ Quote
TheOrcKing Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Hmm.... Honestly, I'm not quite sure how to place these sets. I feel a bit underwhelmed with what little is there. The characters are nice as usual and seem to be the main highlights, however, those vehicles and other bits just don't grab me. I am seeing some great parts though. Maybe my opinion will change when we can have better images or see what the boxes will be like. Thanks for posting this by the way. Quote

Yea it seems that all the 2013 Super Heroes sets are a little underwhelming as a whole although I might end up picking all of them up since I love the line. Quote

Love them superheroes!I'm liking the overall vibe of the Iron Man sets over the Superman ones at the moment, and the Batman sets are great. If it wasn't for the characters in the Spider-Man sets (Venom and Dr. Doom!), I wouldn't bother with those. There is no 'ifs, ands, or buts' about it, I HAVE to get "Daily Bugle Showdown" just for DR. DOOM! HELL YEAH! Quote

I'm disappointed with the Superman pics so far, but hopefully things will change when I see them in person. The Ironman stuff looks pretty good, and the Daily Bungle Showdown is fantastic!! Quote
Rich B Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Here's a photo of the new 76003 Superman Battle of Smallville: http://brickultra.com/lego-superman-battle-of-smallville-set/ Even after seeing this box I am still disappointed with these new Superman sets. IS it just me or does anyone else feel this way? Quote
TheOrcKing Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Umm.....well the box looks okay. That spaceship is pretty wierd even for me, and that's about the lousiest take on Willy's Jeep I've ever seen. I've seen way better renditions on flickr, beefier too. The two Zod Soldiers (?) are trippy looking but remind me of the two Sith Troopers in that Sith Fury-Class Interceptor set from Star Wars. I'm still not really sure as to what to make of these Superman sets. At best, I see a decent selection of some odd parts that I would want for my own stuff. They catch my eye but not exactly in a good way if you know what I mean. I don't like them but I don't not like them either. Quote
sadowsk1 Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 The sets look sharp but this is a series I can definitely wait on and watch the movie before I make any decisions about buying the sets. Quote
TheDarkness Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Wow that set does look awful. The figures though look awesome and will be the driving force. That jeep is embarrassing Quote
