In the wake of the successful superhero movies and other pop culture phenomena, LEGO followed suite by releasing its line of superhero play sets earlier this year. Â In my opinion, these sets are a fantastic move on LEGO’s part. Â What a great way to bring the superhero culture to a different industry. Â The mini-figures area incredibly well-done. Â The likeness to the real thing is uncanny. Â However, these sets have been immensely popular. Â The sets feature Marvel’s Avengers, DC characters such as Batman and Superman, and even the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have made their way into LEGO form. Â The sets have been selling very well, so be sure to pick them up if you are interested! Â Below, you will find images featuring some of the sets:
