Another superhero set from Decool? Why not? [Decool Super Heroes Set 2]

PC060636Perhaps buoyed by the retail success their first super hero set brought (I actually don’t have sales figures, but I’m willing to bet that it did), Decool figured to keep a good thing going, and we’re all better-off for it.

In this set, Decool opted to stick to a mix of Marvel and DC characters, lumping them all together under the Super Heroes branding.

The Super Heroes Set We Don't Deserve [Lele Super Heroes Set]

Because superheroes are absolutely in vogue lately, it's hardly surprising to see another bootleg minifig maker enter the scene, hot on the heels of Decool and SY. Today we're looking at Lele's own Super Heroes set. Is it any good? What secrets lie hidden in these small paperback-sized boxes? The answers will surprise you! (Not really, I just wanted to try my hand at a viral post-style lede.)

Sheng Yuan Super Heroes Set [Toy Impressions]

We've covered the SY Hulk minifig in this space before, so now we turn to the seven other minifigs that form part of the set.

As with the Hulk figure, the minifigs come in a box with pretty impressive-looking CGI rendered art, which I would agree, looks better than just posing the minifigs themselves and taking photos of it. As with this Wolverine image to the left, doing that with just the minifig would see Logan's arms touching his head - less action-y that way.

Also standard with each box is a set of cards adorned with more CGI minifig art and some base stats. As to how the cards should be played (if those are playing cards at all), it's a mystery to me, since the cards do not come with instructions themselves. It's best to just treat them as collectible cards and then we're golden.
