There is a new LEGO Super Heroes sub-theme coming next year called LEGO Super Heroes Mighty Micros. They are somewhat like the LEGO Star Wars Microfighters with tiny version of spaceships and other vehicles, but while LEGO Super Heroes Microfighters come with the standard size minifigures, in LEGO Super Heroes Mighty Micros the minifigs themselves are cutified with short legs, simplified torso prints, and adorable faces. I expect this theme to be very popular with kids and collectors alike. 🙂
The first wave of LEGO Super Heroes Mighty Micros will include six sets; three from the DC line, and three from Marvel. Each set includes two miniature vehicles and two minifigures. The LEGO DC Comics Mighty Micros line includes the following sets: #76061 LEGO Super Heroes Batman vs. Catwoman, #76062 LEGO Super Heroes Robin vs. Bane, and #76068 LEGO Super Heroes The Flash vs. Captain Cold. The LEGO Marvel Mighty Micros line includes the following sets: #76064 LEGO Super Heroes Spiderman vs. Green Goblin, #76065 LEGO Super Heroes Captain America vs. Red Skull, and #76066 LEGO Super Heroes Hulk vs. Ultron.
The LEGO Super Heroes Mighty Micros sets should be available sometime in the spring of 2016. And as I mentioned above, I expect it to be a very popular line. Who won’t like chibi-size vehicles and cute Super Hero minifigs? Hopefully LEGO will continue with other vehicles and characters.
On another note, it seems like LEGO Super Heroes is going to have a very strong year in 2016, with some really excellent sets, and new minifigures. All pictures here are from the 2016 German LEGO Catalog, that was released just a few days ago.
The #76049 LEGO Super Heroes Avenjet Space Mission and the #76045 LEGO Super Heroes Kryptonite Interception are already listed at the Online LEGO Shop with the release date of January 1st (meaning, you can’t buy the set yet, but you can look at the pictures and details). The other sets will be available a bit later, so hang on! In the meantime you can also check out the currently available LEGO DC Comics and LEGO Marvel Super Heroes sets at the Online LEGO Shop.

That giant ant man is awesome!
Yeah, I thought so too! I’m really surprised more people are not talking about it.
I agree with Brick, the Ant Man looks awesome! This all looks so fun! I bet people aren’t talking about it because of all the Star Wars stuff going on right now!
Amazing. Just amazing.
Uh, why does your title say “Mighty Macros”? 😉
I like the concept of these, but not as much the execution. The vehicles are most pretty cool, but I don’t understand why the minifigs have such crazy expressions. 😕 I like the main Super Heroes sets more, especially the Quinjet set (I want the giant Ant-Man! and there’s a nano-fig Ant-Man as well). 🙂 I think the Marvel sets are going to out-do the DC sets next year, with the Bat-cycle set as an exception. Although perhaps that’s because the material the sets are based on isn’t the best.
Well, they are called Mighty Micros, so what am I suppose to call them? I think they are going to be very popular. And yes, the Quinjet set is really awesome! 😀
It is Mighty Micros (cause they are small), not Mighty Macros that would be a large cliff. lol Also BPL the only figs I like from the weird Mighty Micros thing is Spider-Man (he has a nice head) and Ultron (he looks more classic). Also Admin you totally forgot the mighty micros.
Oh, LOL! I haven’t even noticed that I used both Micros and Macros. Funny! Thanks for noticing that. As far as the individual minifigs pictures, I didn’t want to post them separately as adding too many images to one post can make it difficult for the page to load on slower connections.
Yes, thanks BrickLot for clarifying that. A “Mighty Macro” might be better known as the Hulk…. 😉
I think Spidey looks okay, and I also like the Captain’s tank and the set with Flash and Captain Cold. I suppose Ultron and Batman are acceptable as well. Still, I think most of the other sets are better.
Hey Admin I have perfected my prototype for a fully automatic machine gun that shoots 12 flick-fire missiles in 2 seconds. It will be one of the hidden turrets for my 4-5 ft Stark Tower!
Wait, you did what??? 😯
Lol Ya, I made a fully automatic machine gun out of LEGO bricks for the top of Avengers Tower. it uses a piston style thing, I’ll e-mail you a video. 😀 👿
Now I’m scared… will it shoot me? 🙄 👿
As long as you don’t get to close! 👿 It is for proximity shooting, I’ll make another one for long distance.
I sent a vid your way.
I just watched it. That, my friend, is crazy fun and very impressive! 😀
Thx, I’m thinking of using air pressure for the long rang missiles. Oh and if you want to see it all done I should be at Brick Fair Virgina in 2016.
Just don’t shoot anybody’s eyes out! Best use of those lame flick-fire missiles ever! 😀
Lol, ya I try to use them in other things, but they are boring. Also I had about 89453895689 of them in my collection so…I used some. Heck LEGO even uses those flick-fire things in everything; City, Super-Heroes, Creator, Star Wars, Ninjago, UCS, and every theme since they were made! Will you be at Brick Fair Virgina this year Admin?
I doubt it. Virginia is all… the… way… up… there! That would be a lot of driving. I usually go to BrickWorld Tampa. 🙂
Oh my gosh – is Batman actually throwing MILK at Catwoman ? That is so adorable and hilarious. Can’t wait to buy this one ! 😀
Yeah, I noticed that too. Funny! 😀
The Corner Deli is the big star for me.
Yes, that set is definitely one of the best ones! I really liked the first set in the series (Bike Shop & Café), not so much the second one as it is too small (Toy & Grocery Shop), but this third one is perfect again! 😀
