Set Review: 76025 Green Lantern vs Sinestro


Recommended Posts

Not by Andrew/ChocolateFrogs? What a coup. :P

This is a fantastic-looking set, but not being much of a Super Heroes fan, the most exciting part for me is probably the 1x2 minifigure neck bracket. That piece is long overdue, and will allow the use of Chima wing pieces on figs without armor (among many other applications).

Oh my god I know. I need like 20 of those just for my Chima figs, and there's no doubt it'll be an incredibly useful piece! And it's even clear holy crud. It's a nice looking set in general and I was kinda tempted to get it anyway, but now I'm almost definitely buying it. Though I'll probably mainly end up buying the neck brackets on their own from bricklink. I still hope the piece turns up in lots of sets. 

 

That aside, it really does look like a pretty neat set. the decent amount of trans bright green (my one favorite color among all the ones Lego has) certainly helps in that regard. I can never get enough of it. The shaping is also very nice and it juse seems to have a lot of good parts.

 

But that neck bracket. Holy. I've spent the past two years depressed over the fact that my Chima birds have awesome torso printing that is obscured by the dumb armor. Seeing this part finally exist, and in the best possible color, to boot, is awesome. I'm definitely going to have to fit this set into my plans for my 2015 Lego Store raid (which I guess means goodbye Kopaka? and I had finally decided on getting him too...Alas, neck brackets call)

Here's a yellow lantern batman I just put together after buying this awesome set today. [pic]

 

That's basically my plan too, but the one from LB3 has black hands and the newer cowl (not the 2015 cowl, the one with the narrower ears that still has the chin piece).

I was going for the comic version actually.

In that case, the hands work, but I still think the cowl with the narrower ears would be better.  I like that version better in general.

Not much of Lego DC fan, but this set looks pretty good. Not gonna get it though.

I'm just using what I have available. You can use whatever cowl you'd like to. I was just looking to show something off, not for advice.

I wasn't really trying to give advice, I was just comparing what you made with my plan.  Yours does look pretty cool.

I didn't know that a Green Lanturn minifig hadn't been released in a set yet until now. But its great that he finally has been released in one. :) (And in a set with a lot of pieces in green, which is my favorite color. :P)

 

Thanks for the review!

Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.
