That set looks great, and it is a must buy for me, I also like the look of the new lego gun that the space people are wearing :classic:

(Hopefully the movie is just as good as the sets look)

THANK GOD LEGO CHANGED FAORAS FACE. I know that she kind of looks like a man but this was taking it too far. One of the worst decisions of all time. Like making Boba Fett sandblue, changing the Stormtrooper mouths from black to grey with black dots and producing parts in sandred. Probably would have led to another period of financial near-death.

The design of the ship kinda got worse. I thought it was just a basic saucer with some bubbles slapped on it. Now it has some parts on the underside so that kids have something else to get a grip on the model. And the little wing thingies, what is this supposed to be? It certainly looked different in the trailer.

The fig selection is great at least. Superman is the same as in Metropolis Showdown, which means you can easily pass the set up if Zod turns out to only have a single head variation, too. The kryptonian armor and helmet cries for some customization. Hardy and Tor-An sadly are Bruce and Lex again. I guess you can´t escape them in licensed sets any more.

Maybe the people who built the sets and figures at the toy fair got mixed up with Faora and Tor-An's torsos. :classic:

The set looks great! I can't see why the BAT could have have had less blue highlights like this spaceship and its green ones..it looks so much better with less green..

Minifigures look great! :sweet:

Lex Luthor isn't in the movie, nor in the sets....

-Omi

I think they are referring to the Leaked Toy fair pictures, where the Lex Luthor Minifigure head was put on Faora. It looks like it was a mix up as the Luthor minifigure head is on Tor-an instead of Faora.

In a preliminary photo, Luthors head was on one of the figures.

More like Tor-An's head was switched with Faora's and people overreacted to it.

Hmm I'm wondering since they're kryptonians why their using kryptonite to power up their spacecraft??Isnt kryptonite their weak spot??You can cleary see the green pieces on the ship,so I assume it's kryptonite.

I think this is another example of what I call the TIE Fighter syndrome. It's where they take a normally dark colored ship and put vibrant colors on it to make it stand out more. This was done with the Bat earlier this year as well.

It is very interesting that the smallville set includes two extra hair pieces. I assume that the two figures in the black suits will have identities rather than being alien soldier extras and will have a major role in the movie.

The two armored guy are Zod and Faora. I guess the hairpieces are for if you don't want Faora or Zod to wear their helmets.

Thanks for the hi res pictures. Faora is certainly looking a lot less butch than she appeared at Toy Fair. Nice to see the CM spikey hairpiece in black too.
