Batman is also made out of dark pearl grey, giving him a really nice, almost metallic shimmer. I actually like Batman without his chunky armour piece – the armour just make him look unnecessarily large and awkward, as well as hides all that glorious torso and leg printing. It looks really cool, almost cyborg-like. This version has extra armour plating across his chest and extends down to his knees as well. The printing is incredibly sharp that goes above and beyond your regular Batman suit. Removing Batman’s armour reveals an amazingly detailed torso and legs. Batman’s armour has 2 clips that hold a grappling hook and a new grey Batarang. To maintain the armoured look, we get the older version of his cowl, which has a closed chin area. Oddly enough, Batman’s cape is made out of the starchy paper material, and not fabric. Batman has a chunky suit of armour, first seen in Series 13’s Galaxy Trooper which snugly fits over his cape. The real star of this set is Batman who is armed to the teeth with his armoured suit, ready to take on the Man of Steel. For his red cape, the material is made out of the new-ish fabric material which has a lovely heavy texture and feel to it. Superman has an alternate face which has his eyes lit up in anger, ready to shoot laser beams at anyone who crosses him. They make the suit look very sleek and modern, ensuring that it looks fresh and unique, while retaining the classic Superman suit look. I actually quite like the blue lines, although I think they’re a little too bright. Here’s a look at the back printing, which has more of those striking electric blue lines that stretch across his spine and lower torso. ![]() Unfortunately, Superman doesn’t have any additional printing on his legs and arms which I feel is kind of a waste since I’d appreciate some extra details to make him look more “complete”. It’s a great new hairpiece that’s very stylish and does well to mimic Henry Cavill’s look from the movie. What I love is his brand new hairpiece which features a very contemporary messy looking pompadour hairstyle that eschews his iconic hair curl. I’m not really a fan of the raised eyebrow look. Superman has an oddly goofy smile that feels a little out of place in a set that pits him against Batman. The S uperman minifig features Kal-El in his brand new suit, which is mostly dark blue with bright blue accents lining key areas such as the Superman crest and his waist. The LEGO Super Heroes theme (both Marvel and DC) are notorious for making you buy multiple sets to collect all the main characters but Clash of the Heroes does away with all of that that by including two of the main juggernauts of the movie in a very affordable set.īatman v Superman is probably going to contain a lot of superhero action goodness along with a “ will they, won’t they” romantic bromance subplot between the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel but for this set, DC’s two premiere heroes are forced to face each other down in a class of epic proportions.Īt AU$20, I really love the value contained in this set – you instantly get both titular characters, which is a huge win for minifigure, hardcore or even casual LEGO fans looking to own a small part of the movie. Instructions: LEGO 76044 Clash of the HeroesĬlash of the Heroes is the smallest Batman v Superman set, but don’t let its diminutive size fool you, it packs quite a punch and is one of the most satisfying small sets that I’ve put together in recent times. Theme: DC Super Heroes – Batman v Superman I’ve picked up the entire wave of Batman v Superman sets, and I’ve decided to start small with a review of 76044 Clash of the Heroes! LEGO and DC Comics have worked together on three initial LEGO sets that will tie in with the upcoming Batman v Superman movie, a rather modest selection but there are rumours swirling of another set that will make an appearance in the second half of 2016. I think it’s going to be a smash hit and I am extremely excited about the prospect of seeing the Batfleck in action. I’ve always preferred DC over Marvel, and I cannot wait for the upcoming Batman v Superman movie that opens in Australian cinemas on 24 March 2016. If you’ve been following my blog for awhile, you could’ve probably clued in to the fact that one of my favourite licensed themes is DC Super Heroes. ![]()
