Mighty Micros: Superman vs. Bizarro

Released in 2017 as part of the inaugural waves of the Lego DC Super Heroes Mighty Micros theme, this set features a stylized, diminutive take on the iconic rivalry between Superman and Bizarro. The series was designed to offer a lighthearted, caricature-style aesthetic that contrasted with the more serious, realistic minifigures found in the mainline DC sets of the era. The vehicles were intentionally crafted with exaggerated features, such as Superman’s flying car and Bizarro’s inverted, backwards-built vessel, to lean into the playful and whimsical tone of the line.

The set was received as a charming entry point for younger collectors and a humorous addition for adult fans of the DC Universe. By leaning into the classic comic book tropes of the two characters, the design team emphasized the absurdity of their power sets, pairing them with playful accessories like a blue kryptonite element and a pretzel for Bizarro. It remains a notable example of Lego's willingness to experiment with artistic proportions while maintaining the core appeal of the source material.
