If only this thing had a Presidential seal on it.
Somehow, I got through the first round of Batman LEGOs, the Star Wars LEGOs, and (nearly) all of the Indiana Jones LEGOs. No problem. But now there’s a new round of Batman LEGO also featuring some other DC heroes and villains and so now there’s a goddamn Lex Luthor mech set. I am only so strong. And more than LEGO Batman, more than LEGO Han Solo, what my heart really wanted was a LEGO Lex Luthor.
And he’s even specifically businessman Lex Luthor. CEO industrialist Lex Luthor. Black-tie suit and all. And he’s piloting a huge-ass robot brimming with Kryptonite and weaponry designed solely to crush Superman.
How did LEGO know this is exactly what I wanted?
Well, that’s an easy question to answer, isn’t it? They knew it’s exactly what you wanted because they knew it was what everyone wanted. Businessman Lex Luthor in a big kryptonite robot is a universal constant.
cheese, you’d think LEGO Luthor would at least LOOK at Superman while he’s crushing him in the big ol’ kryptonite claw. But no. He has no respect for the Man of Steel. None at all.
And a Wonder Woman mini figure and everything.
David, if you want further reasoning for owning this LEGO set, just do what I did.
Pose it next to your Toy Man DC Universe Classics figure. It seems like something he would build to try and destroy Superman.
I, too, have purchased this thing. And some Lego dinos. And a couple Lego Friends sets to fight Lex Luthor and his raptors.
Stands to reason the Dave Conspiracy would be interested in Kryptonite tech.
I’d kind of prefer the classic tasteless green & purple battlesuit for Lex, myself. You know, what he wore on Superfriends. I want to pick this up and have Kre-Optimus Prime rescuing Superman & Wonder Woman.
Lex Luthor: Sorry to keep you waiting, Superman. I had to get my power suit.
