About Superman
Smallville, Metropolis and the film
The largest set is Superman: Battle of Smallville (76003-1) from 2013, with 419 pieces; Smallville is the Kansas town where Clark Kent grows up. The set belongs to a group of 2013 releases tied to the film Man of Steel, alongside Superman: Black Zero Escape (76009-1) with 169 pieces and Superman: Metropolis Showdown (76002-1) with 119. A small set simply called Superman (SUPERMAN-1), with 41 pieces, is also dated 2013.
Lex Luthor, then and now
Superman's arch-enemy frames the theme. Superman vs Power Armor Lex (6862-2) is listed for 2012 with 208 pieces, and more than a decade later Superman Mech vs. Lex Luthor (76302-1) arrived in 2025 with 120. Between them sit two items with letter codes instead of numbers: Superman Shield (TRUSHIELD-2) from 2012 with 257 pieces, and Action Comics #1 Superman (SDCC2015-3) from 2015 with 145.
Who the sets suit
None of the sets passes 420 pieces, so each can be built in an evening. That makes the theme a good fit for younger fans and minifigure collectors. If you already own a few, add them to your Bricoria collection and try “What can I build?” to see which other sets your parts come close to.
