I got this the first time I went to watch Justice League, together with XINH 651 ‘Gladia-thor’ (Hahahahaha) and XINH 703 Thor with Power Blast. It’s one of the set I wanted to get since last year. It’s a small set, but you get everything you need to recreate the Batman vs. Superman scene from Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice.
First things first, the box.
• Box (front). The box is slightly different from the original Lego version in that it is a bit blurry. At least they got Superman’s hair piece right unlike LEPIN. I don’t know. Maybe it’s just me. I always got a certain prejudice towards LEPIN. From the reviews I’ve seen, they don’t really make good quality bricks, despite making all those CRAZY-ASS big Lego Technic sets. And also, LEPIN’s S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier isn’t in a really good quality. From the reviews, some of the pieces came broken. I trust that LELE’s version is in waayyyyyy better quality.
• Box (back). Notice that it is labelled “Heroes Gathering” like the front.
• Box (side). Both sides are the same.
• Box (top). A scaled on 1:1 Batman minifig printed just like the original Lego version.
• The set comes in three labelled bags.
• The building instruction booklet (front).
• The building instruction booklet (back).
• The building instruction booklet (first page). If you’ll compare, LEGO®’s building instruction booklet DOES NOT show the Batman’s cape. I may be wrong as I compared it to the digital version downloaded from http://lego.brickinstructions.com/, or rather Lego Instruction Database.
• The extra pieces.
• The complete set.
• The battleground (front).
• The battleground (right).
• The battleground (back).
• The battleground (left).
• The battleground (top).
• The battleground (bottom).
• Closer look on the Kryptonite box.
• Closer look on the printed brick. The print isn’t so clear. The original version uses sticker.
• Closer look on the Bat-signal. Pretty good. No complain. Also, it shoots out perfectly.
• Armored Batman. As you can see, the eyes are in alignment with the holes of the Bat-helmet if you push the head all the way in the mask. Hence, I’ll be reviewing the Armored Batman minifig without the eyes seen. The Kryptonite gun is very good in quality and that it shoots perfectly, unlike previous versions of LELE's stud (is it "stud"; not sure on the name of the piece :P) shooter.
• Armored Batman (front).
• Armored Batman (right).
• Armored Batman (back).
• Armored Batman (left).
• Closer look on Batman’s head with the eyes (face no.1).
• Closer look on Batman’s head with the eyes (face no.2).
• Closer look on Batman’s head without the eyes.
• Closer look on face no.1. The printing is thinner compare to face no.2.
• Closer look on face no.2. Thicker printing. LELE didn’t include the second face, the one with Batman’s mouth open like the original and Decool. Not quite sure about Sheng Yuan’s version.
• Closer look on Batman without the armor and cape (front, with face no.1).
• Closer look on Batman without the armor and cape (back, with face no.2).
• Closer look on Batman without the armor (front).
• Closer look on Batman without the armor (back).
• I really like this Armored Batman minifig design. You can make it carry all sorts of weapons. The look of it feels like Batman is wearing a ‘Bat-War Machine’ armor.
• Closer look on the armor with the Batarang and the hook.
• Closer look on the armor.
• Closer look on the Batarang and the hook.
• Closer look on the cape. If not mistaken, LEGO® and Decool’s version of the cape is gray in color, which suits the armor more like in the movie. Well, at least LELE made the right type of cape - the cape with only one hole (not the usual two hole).
• Did I forget to mention that LELE’s version of the Armored Batman also glows in the dark like LEGO® and Decool’s version?!
I’m not sure whether you can see clearly the second pic. It is Batman’s glow-in-the-dark head without the Bat-helmet.
The third pic shows Batman glowing in the dark with the full armor.

• Superman (front).
• Superman (right).
• Superman (back).
• Superman (alternate face). The eyes aren’t red as it’s supposed to be.
• Superman (back torso).
• This set also comes with a Super Jumper. My experience with LELE’s Super Jumper is that it doesn’t last long, like the one I got in the Hulkbuster Smash set. Oh well…
I’ll end this post with three short clips of Batman vs. Superman, using all the action stunts shown at the box:
God Bless.
