Kryptonite Interception

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. Love it or hate it, fans and critics of the controversial March 2016 blockbuster agreed on one thing: Ben Affleck's performance as Batman was amazing. Considering the "Batfleck" was one of the most talked-about parts of the movie before its release (and products with the Dark Knight always do well), it made sense that the good folks at the LEGO Group would want to enshrine Zack Snyder's take on the Caped Crusader in brick form. The result is a great set. The set's divided into three parts: The Batmobile, a LexCorp forklift, and three minifigures. Minifigs: The three minifigs included are of Batman and two LexCorp henchmen. The LexCorp figures are nice to round out your minifig collection, and the torsos could come in handy for future builds, but the Batman minfigure is great. This might be my favorite Batman minifig aside from, and possibly even surpassing, the minfig based of off Batman's design from the "New 52" line of comics. The forklift: There's not that much to say about the forklift. It's a forklift. It's green. You can build it in maybe five minutes, tops. It has a rubber band to give the fork itself a fun little play function. It would come in handy for a warehouse build, though. The Batmobile: Oh my goodness. This car. The Batmobile from Batman V Superman is my favorite live action Batmobile yet, and this set doesn't disappoint. I love the brick attached flickfire launchers, as well as the new pieces used for the gull-wing doors. If you know what you're doing and follow the instructions, it shouldn't take too long. The end result feels solid, has some real weight to it, brings some nice play value from the flickfire launchers, as well as rolling it around. It also looks great on display. Overall, I love this set. If you want a piece of Batman V Superman in LEGO form that's a bit more substantial than 76044 Clash of the Heroes, but 76046 Heroes of Justice: Sky High Battle's $60 price point is just a bit too high, or if you just want a really cool Batmobile, you should check this set out. You won't be disappointed. more less

The new Batmobile is a decent size and is a good representation of the vehicle that we'll be seeing in the movie. LEGO did a good job showing off the angles throughout the vehicle. My main complaint about the Batmobile is that the windshield pieces are extremely tight. I'm not sure if that's a widespread issue or if it's just mine. The forklift isn't too shabby of a complementary build either like with other Super Heroes sets. One thing that I didn't particularly like about the forklift is that the rubber bands for the forks are a little too tight. My other complaint is the glasses on the kryptonite jars don't stay on very well. They just sit on top and doesn't really attach to anything. more less

This is a pretty cool, action-packed set that lets kids build the Batmobile as seen in the new movie Batman v Superman. They can play out scenes from the movie, use the comic book as inspiration, or just make up their own superhero adventures for Batman. more less

I liked this set a lot when I first put it together, which was thankfully well before I ever saw the film it was based on, and still like it a few months later. For the price, only $30, you get a solid build, a forklift, and a couple of henchmen, and that's some pretty nice value. more less

This set has a good, but not great value and finds itself right on the average of $0.13 per brick. The build is nice, though a little more thought could have gone into just how Batman is supposed to control this thing. You get a lot of Minifigures compared to the brick count, but two of them are rather bland. The Batman Minifig is, however, awesome. more less

For what you get, I do concede that the price is the biggest drawback. Having to drop AU$50 on a Batmobile is a pretty big hit to the wallet, especially when the other components of the set such as minifigures don't do much to cushion the blow. more less

76045 Kryptonite Interception is undoubtedly my favourite of the three Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice sets. Not only does it include an excellent selection of minifigures but the Batmobile looks splendid and there is plenty of play value too. I am still not keen on the source material but this is certainly my favourite minifigure scale Batmobile to date. more less
