If you can’t tell, we’re pretty big fans of LEGO around here at Batman News. The LEGO Batman Movie was a work of sheer genius, for one thing, and the toys themselves are always a blast to construct and play with. With Justice League coming this November, that means we’ll be getting a chance to play with our favorite Leaguers sooner rather than later.
Indeed, the fine folks at LEGO have released details about some upcoming Justice League-themed sets they’ll be releasing late this summer. What’s most interesting is we get our first really solid looks at Batman’s two new vehicles, the Knightcrawler and the Flying Fox, in addition to Parademons, the Mother Box, and the film’s main antagonist, Steppenwolf.
Check out the three sets and their accompanying galleries for full details:

Granted, toys are toys, and they aren’t always indicative of the finished product in the film. Still, these are some pretty nice sets on their own (dig the details on the Parademon wings), and… I mean, come on guys. We’re living in a world where we can make a LEGO Mother Box. How much longer until we get a LEGO Mister Miracle, Big Barda, or even Granny Goodness? Too long, I say.
