NYCC 2012: LEGO to Reveal New DC and Marvel Super Heroes Sets on Saturday

I have resisted the DC and Marvel LEGO sets so far, but both of these sets look awesome.

Following the wildly successful 2012 launch of LEGO Super Heroes: DC Universe™, fans will preview the first construction set in the 2013 line as well as have a chance to see a LEGO Super Heroes: DC Universe 3-D mosaic featuring iconic images of Wonder Woman™, Batman™ and Superman™. Also the grand prize winner of the LEGO Super Heroes: DC Universe video contest will be announced on Saturday at 1 p.m. with a premiere of the video that garnered a prize package of $15,000 and a trip to New York Comic-Con premieres.

Attendees will also get a peek of a new LEGO Super Heroes: MARVEL™ set that launches in 2013, while a life-sized LEGO model of the Hulk™ – standing 7-feet high – will dominate the show floor. The grand prize winner of the LEGO Super Heroes: MARVEL™ video contest will be announced on Saturday at 5 p.m. with a premiere of the video that garnered a prize package of $15,000 and a trip to the show.
