USA Today has leaked two images of one of the upcoming LEGO DC Universe Super Heroes sets based on the Superman: Man of Steel film. 76002 Superman: Metropolis Showdown includes two minifigures (a new version of Superman and General Zod in his black suit), a yellow vehicle and an antenna tower. 76002 has a price tag of US$12.99, is the smallest set of the Man of Steel range and will hit stores in May 2013.
Here is a portion of a press release that was made today:
In anticipation of Man of Steel, global master toy licensee Mattel unveils its wide-ranging toy line including action figures, vehicles, playsets and collectible figures, highlighted by the fan-favorite and much-anticipated Movie Masters™ line, which captures the superior accuracy and details of the film’s characters. Mattel will also introduce Man of Steel QuickShots™, a new way to play with Superman with elements of flight and strength incorporated into the toy. Also supporting Man of Steel are global licensees such as LEGO, with exciting construction sets inspired by memorable scenes from the film; and Rubie’s Costume Co. with a new line of Man of Steel-inspired costumes and accessories for both kid and adult fans.
What do you think about this very small LEGO DC Super Heroes set? After looking at this scene, I can’t wait to see what the other Man of Steel sets look like.
