LEGO DC Super Heroes Minifigures series review! All 16 

Metamorpho (edit: and Mr. Miracle) are *heroes* and that's a total, complete, and utter mess-up on my part. Hopefully some viewers get some value out of some of the video regardless of my absolute memory failures as a hopless pleb who has never studied or had any personal interest in DC material 😞 If not, I take full responsibility and apologize. I may need to drop coverage of the theme or consider a completely different approach.

My biggest gripe with this series is that they gave us Golden Age Batman, Wonder Woman and Flash, but gave us a rebirth Superman. They should have given us a GA Superman as well. Imagine if all of these had come with first appearance comic prints

I love this series, I wish they did a separate one for villains

It's great that you're back with the Same quality content. We know coppa has been hard on you but to see you still going is inspiring to us all

How to start your kid gambling. Expensive blind bags from Lego.

Honestly, that cosmic staff looks less like a cosmic staff and more like the rear end of a rubber fishing lure on a stick

As a DC fan, I love this line of collectable minifigures. I liked the Batman movie figures too, but this line is way better.

I agree that we should be able to just buy the ones we want. I don’t want to have to buy the ones I like on eBay for twice the cost or buy 10 that I don’t want to get certain ones. Or for that matter, stand in a store feeling bags.

Can someone try Batman's helmet on a Wolverine fig?

At 5 usd they should at least stop being random.

...Mister Miracle isn't a villain! As to the question of value, I think it may have been worth it if the quality of minifigs were improved but it still feels like they haven't rectified the light paint work on dark plastic issue yet. I know that I went from collecting an entire set to only the ones I thought were pretty cool to only the ones I really really want. I would love to see the sales metrics across the different series price points.

Jang, I love your videos they're so relaxing and I love the professional style you have in all your videos. you're always improving and inspiring me. keep up the great work!

Imagine if they had done Joker's alternative face with the batarang nailed in his eye

they should have given the Joker a MUG! but maybe that would have been too brutal :-D

The angled bar is the most brilliant addition to the Lego parts catalogue in a long time. Not to discredit many of the other great parts we've gotten in recent years. But that bar is really thinking outside the brick.

80% of the parts are just standard lego pieces, small ones, usually not very complex either. The price Lego is claiming for them is well over their actual value.

Until Lego can get the opacity correct on the majority of their figures, then will a minifigure actually be worth $5

I really hate that we can't get these for Star Wars.

My 3 favorites are Batmite, Sinestro, and Cyborg

Fully agree with your comparison of Mega figs vs Lego figs. I adore the unique style of Lego minifigs, they're fun and cute and have a lot of personality - but in terms of articulation, play functionality, poseability etc, Mega knocks it out of the park. You just get more for your money with the Mega figs. Keep putting out the quality content! You are my go-to guy for honest Lego reviews, and it's seriously appreciated!

Ive bought 2 and got both the ones I wanted, stargirl and green lantern

For those new angled and transparent pieces alone, I might pick up a couple of these. They seem like they'd be very useful for smaller builds, such as furniture or props for minifigs.

28:12 when your stepdad catches you playing xbox past your bedtime

My favorite one out of all of these is the Simon Baz Green Lantern💚😊✌🏼

Awesome! I really love this CMF serie

Wow, very high quality work on Aquaman!

I really enjoyed the video. I am not big on DC either, but did recognize the main characters. Your evaluation of them is what is important to me.

That vintage, comical Batman, ha ha, I need that one. I'm a pretty good bag feeler so I might get it. Thanks for letting us know these are out. Knowing what's in each bag is a real boost. Why does Star Girl look like she's wearing braces? Sold out at our store.

This is so cool they made Batman returns joker, i loved this comic book movie incarnation, hope to see more interesting figures from the animated movies

Imagine if the series 2 focused on the DCAU (BTAS, STAS, JL, etc), would be great

I’ve gotta say, this video really shows you did a fantastic job with your new white seamless setup. Looks great

I'm so, so glad that, when I lastly received Hugrid's hut and there was an executioner, his face turned out to be same colour as the arms and not pale. I'm the lucky guy.

I kinda want that aquaman. I’ve never been a comics guy, but edgy aquaman with a hook hand is like, very appealing

I wonder if the commemorative minifig will be clear (like Mr Gold)

The price point has put me off getting any of these. Especially in blind bags. I don't want to be feeling bags for minutes in a store checking I get the ones I want and not get doubles.

Jang - I really like your new format. I like seeing you as you're reviewing the sets. My only gripe is that your new minifig review setup lacks the direct brightness and contrast of your old setup. The metallic detailing on the figs just isn't popping as much and I can't see it as well. Keep up the good work though - mad respect.

Greetings from Germany. I'm totally on your side with these figures. I collect them for a while now and the prize is climbing but the quality gets worse. Love your videos, keep going on like that and have a nice weekend:-)

Dude this is the first time I've ever seen your face out of the 100s of reviews of yours i've watched haha. Keep up the great work!

Jang i usually agree with your opinion on value and I'm so so glad you collect mega construx too so you can slam lego for their hubris accurately. Thanks for makin videos and I hope you're able to continue for a long time

The mask and the Mantle (perhaps) of the 1940s Batman are perfect to kitbash into a The Batman batsuit! :) Andthe minifigure head aswell

With the new lantern piece I wonder if we'll get sets with the other lantern corps. I'd definitely want to see sets for the Red and Violet Lantern Corps, maybe if they decide to do another DC Minifigure series they could include Larfleeze

Those clear pieces are going to be a brickfilm makers best friend, i can feel it. (spoken as an amateur brick-film maker)

Agreed 100% about mega construx packs and would be nice if lego either put the price back down or let us see the figure we're buying. Keep up the great work

Found these on Best Buy deal of the day for $2.49/each. Bought six bags and happy I scored Batman, The Flash and Aquaman. 😎

Fantastic minifigures 🤩🤩🤩

Good video. Thanks.

You look like a genie floating in the beginning of the video. I’m impressed. I was able to pull a full set of these from the first box I found at Fred Meyer a couple weeks ago, and they were on sale for $3 each. Spent some time feeling the bags and got 16/16 correct! Pretty excited to have the full set. 👍

I found these at my Walmart for $3. 44 a pack.

This is my fav series, already got 4 Batman’s, 4 batmite, Superman and joker. For sure gonna collect more Batman’s and jokers

Man, so great to get a Sea King figure

Only one I want is Aquaman, which I imagine will be hard to find because the fish is so easy to feel and he'll be in higher demand. Also, yeah, I hate that they're so expensive now, especially when compared to the high quality of Mega's blind bags and Heroes.

I've done it. It's taken a little while but I've completed the set. My very first Lego collectable minifig series and I've got every character :)

Great video....and in regard to the price hike....I was able to get them all for $4 or less...I was worried about the price hike too but it didn’t affect me with this series of minifigs and I bought all my figures at Walmart and target....I was very happy/surprised to not pay five bucks for these figures...

The mold for Aqua-man’s hand would work great in tan for Davy Jones’ other hand

I'm hoping Jang will soon look at that new magnet piece. :3

Regarding the price increase, I'd love to know the margins that are being made on the figure mini-series, and what margins have historically been made. $5 is steep - not as steep as £5, mind you! - but if the margins are in line with increased costs, I'm not sure we can really gripe about it? Yang, you say that the figures feel like they're $3 worth of kit, and we trust you on that, but given your insight into the inner machincations of Lego, any chance of finding out about Lego's take on this? If costs haven't gone up, then theyre taking an extra $16 on every complete set, and I'd have issues with that, but if prices are going up and the complexity of the figures are rising, can we really take umbrage with that? I'm not so sure.

No one mentioning that Cyborg has side head printing?! The only other one I saw was one in cloud city.

I hope to get all the figures while buying a whole box! Wish me luck :)

Funny thing about the price, even though they increased the retail cost, this ended up being the cheapest I got them from stores overall. My brothers and I went looking for new LEGO late on Jan 1st. I'd heard the rumor of $5 for these. So I was surprised that Walmart had them at $3.44 on release day. I thought maybe the $5 rumor hadn't come true afterall, and how rare to find them for even cheaper when they first came out. There were only 23 packs in the box, but I managed to get 13 unique and a second Joker and Aquaman (on purpose). I was just missing Bumblebee, Batman, and Huntress. Then soon after I saw that LEGO.com did have them with the $4.99 price and I felt even luckier to get them for the cheaper price. I figured I'd just pick up the 3 I needed on Bricklink eventually if I didn't get them some other way. Then late January I was in Cincinnati and stopped by their LEGO store. I was able to feel for the Batman and Bumblebee very quickly and easily. They were the $4.99 price, but I was happy to get them (and glad I didn't have to pay $5 for most of them). Later that week I was at a Walmart in Ashland, KY and they had a bunch and again they were still $3.44. I decided to feel a few packs and the second one was Huntress. Collection was complete. I did/do want to get a couple more Bat Mites to give to my brothers because they are pretty big comic book fans (and LEGO fans). When I got home earlier this month, I stopped by my Target and they had them for $3.99. I decided to feel some packs and got one more Bat Mite, but then I didn't find any more quickly and gave up for that day. While I despise the price hike to $5 and wasn't sure I'd collect the whole set, being able to score them for cheaper in retail stores, most even cheaper than I paid when they were $3.99 retail price, I'm pretty happy with the series. I, as much as anyone, am also not happy with LEGO's print quality when printing light on dark colors...it's been quite apparently the last year or two (that I've noticed). I think it really showed when comparing the old Star Wars figures with the new 20th anniversary ones. I can't recall which ones specifically, but it was quite noticeable that LEGO was doing it better back in the day and has slacked off. That combined with how much they are charging for CMFs, really is disappointing. Also last year, I created a display stand in a small display case with all of the Captain America figures (minus the con-exclusives) for my sister for her birthday. The very first Captain America shield looked great, the newest one with a gray base looked pretty good. All the rest in between, the white looked pink against the red base. I don't know the reason for the drop off in opacity in these cases. I'm not sure if they're using less ink, or a different ink, or what. I'm hopeful they'll right this, but it's been going on quite a while now with people complaining and they just keep doing it. I guess I expect more from LEGO. We pay a lot of money for their bits of plastic. I realize changes can happen with unexpected consequences, but I feel like there has been awareness for long enough they could have fixed it...and what better time to do it, when raising the prices. Maybe folks would have taken it better if it wasn't an issue with the more expensive DC series. Like okay, they're charging more, but the quality went up. Still probably wouldn't like that price, but maybe an easier pill to swallow. Anyway, maybe obvious but Bat Mite is my favorite of the series. Such a fun figure and I especially love his comic book accessory. I want a couple more for my collection (at least the accessory). A close second is the original Batman...I really like that one two. Did I miss it, of did you not show his accessory of the rope/string? Thanks for your insightful and in depth review of this series. I thought I'd checked them out at least a bit when I first got them, but not that thoroughly. I didn't notice Bumblebee's torso situation with her skin color...that does seem really bad assuming that there's not a good reason for it (I haven't researched the source material). One more thing, on an already really long response, I really like the little stand pieces. You mentioned they each came with 2 of the clear stand pieces, but I swear some of mine only had one (though many did have two). My brothers and I had fun with them that first night...using several to put Superman much higher in the air. They are quite versatile little pieces and I'm glad they included them and I hope they'll be more of a regular thing. I definitely just want to grab a bunch from a Bricklink seller at some point.

XLNT review as always. A few mistakes but you did give a disclaimer. I have ever collectable minifig since its introduction. At $5 a pop I am thinking on closing that collection. Not wanting to play anymore at $80 for a complete set plus tax (assuming I make no errors).

Interesting getting a classic woman in cheetah costume Cheetah when the next movie will have the were-cheetah version. But in general quite a few quirky and less common characters in this set which is nice. Plus Huntress now and we got Black Canary before, so that's a good half of the Birds of Prey too.

I completely agree with you on the increase in price Jang. 5$ is just too much a single minifigure with an accessory. Collectible minifigures series was my favorite thing to collect these past few years, but I'm definitely thinking of moving on now.

Did you get 2 with every single one or just most of them? I had a total of 27 of them after opening all 16

What I find strange about the price is that while LEGO raised the price, I’ve been able to find them at a price lower than the old pricing at Wal-Mart and Amazon. I was never able to get past CMF series lower than MSRP.

I was super lucky as my local Walmart had these for $3.50 the day they were released! Not sure if it was a screw-up on their part but I have heard from others this was the case too.

Nice reviews I like the joker and cheetah

Oh thank you so much, I guess I’ll be going to the Lego store soon. I did buy my dad the Lego architecture sampler set with the NYC skyline. I’ll let you know how that went. Jang? There’s a Lego group on Drive Tribe - May I post links to your videos there? I think the cross pollination would be healthy in a adult social context. Again thanks!

If they do increase it I feel like they need to add something to the figures a little build or something or package two figures together because like you say they are walking a fine line in terms of value

cant wait for the next set of bags to include the batman who laughs

Watching Jang talk about Batmite's legs being either dual molded or triple molded makes me want to watch a video where he cuts some Lego parts in half just to see exactly how they're molded on the inside. God, I almost want to cut one apart now just to sate my curiousity. But the chance of getting a bat-mite randomly is too much of a gamble, lol...

figures are the same price in the UK. I think I spent an hour in the Glasgow store LOL. staff are awesome as always

If they do a series 2, they gotta include either Alfred Stryker or Dr Death (1st appeared as Batman’s villain for the debut, other was his first reaccurring Villain)

Although it looks classic, that's a very recent Sinestro, because he has the yellow ring. He wears this in the new Justice League by Scott Snyder.

Jang - don’t worry about a minor error, the detail in the review is great. I completely agree about the price of these, think this is going to be the price hike that stops me buying the minifig sets.

Good review Jang! Love the content and detail you provide! I agree, $5 is too much. There is nothing extra or better here over other years to warrant a price increase. Especially when the next series is unlicensed. Shame.

both Mister Miracle & Metamorpho are heroes not villains And that is Golden Age Wonder Woman

regarding value our local toyshop keep still old price (3.39 eur) for new collectible minifigs. So no increase this year in price regardless of official lego retail price.

Hi Jang, good day to you, when are you goin to continue with your modular city moc video? I miss it alot, is nice and happy to see you city upgrading 😁

Love it

I wanna know whats up with the extra pieces cuz I got the joker today and it came with an extra 1 by 2 jumper plate ( plate with single stud) and two of those transparent cup straw looking things and I wanna know why it came with those

The little jump/flying piece is pretty cool, but I think it would have been 1000% better if for Green Lantern and Sinestro they had of made them in trans-green and trans-yellow instead of clear, to make look like they're leaving a light trail

Yeah they increase the price.. imagine in other countries as well, its more expensive due to the currency difference. I have to be very selective on which figurine to get now.

The Green lantern sinestro symbol printed tiles are not spares, and are meant to be placed on the lanterns. This is something that easily missed so I'm not going to say it is your fault, but I figured you should know

I am overall with you on the comments except on the meta morpho part. I have read his comics and am a overal dc comics fan. Meta morpho is perfect in his expression he is a HERO after all. bumpy beginnings but hey even batman has had slipups. And Mister Miracle is also a hero. The entire line had just three villains in it. Joker, Cheeta and Sinestro.

There are ring pieces used in the lord of the rings and the hobbit sets. They were chrome gold in colour and definitely would have worked for sinestro, bit they would have had to make new ones for green lantern

Aquaman is definitely my favorite, with Batman, Joker, and Bat-Mite tied for second

I’m a fan of marvel fan.In a moment of weakness I thought I’ll try one maybe get huntress. I like the cross bow. I got Star Girl with no head.Next thought I deserve that for straying.Jang everybody makes mistakes so don’t worry about it.Just drop and do 20 push ups,then move on.🤠

Why does Lego still use the older style of stiff capes?

JANGBRICKS Rules. Your my Idol.

I wonder how the Flash is going to be displayed on the wall. The stuff on his back may make it tricky.

I got two bags from this series, hoping they were anything but aquaman They were both aquaman

I’d really be interested to see how Jang ranks these... new series maybe?

I agree about the price. I will be keeping an eye out for deals on Ebay. Otherwise I'm not buying. So far I've found around $4 each. That's still too much for tiny plastic. You'd think Lego would understand that they'd sell SO MUCH more at $3 a piece and it would feel for fair. Still expensive but more reasonable. Anywho I appreciate your honest reviews.

Good job

When are we going to get the Book Shop review? You normally review the modular early in the year and now it is almost March.

Can you buy those clear bar pieces ? I can’t find them on brick link

Did all of your minifigs come with 2 clear stands? A few of mine from one batch only had one. It seemed to be the ones that were double-bagged. Also, I got two capes with Mr Miracle. Anyone else?

I'm hoping we get a Marvel minifigure set, would be the first one I'd consider to collect

Oof I wish I was into Lego and DC when this came out these figs look great

Is Superman’s cape a different material because I can see his neck and the recent soft capes the neck is hidden so I can’t tell
