LEGO DC Super Heroes Superman Minifigure Ornament review
LEGO Superman flies onto the Christmas tree with this DC Super Heroes ornament from the Hallmark Keepsake range.
Each year, Hallmark releases a selection of new officially licensed LEGO Christmas decorations as part of the Keepsake collection. Five new ornaments are available this year, with comic books fans able to add Superman to their collection.
The decoration is based on the LEGO character from the LEGO DC Super Heroes theme, with the vibrant blue and red outfit as colourful as ever.

— Summary —
Batman tells Superman at the beginning of The LEGO Batman Movie: “DC… the house that Batman built. Yeah, what, Superman? Come at me bro.” While it’s debatable to what extent the two characters are responsible for the success of DC Comics, it’s indisputable that Superman is an icon for both the publisher and the comic book industry in general.
He is perfect for translation into a minifigure thanks to his simple but brightly coloured design, which has in turn proved perfect for translating into a Christmas tree decoration.
Like all of the LEGO ornaments from Hallmark, Superman is a single sculpted piece and features no articulation. Despite it being made of plastic, it feels like a proper Christmas decoration and looks a bit more crafted than some other upscaled minifigure products, such as the key lights.
The pose, with the character in flight, is well chosen and this will be a worthy addition to any LEGO or comic book fan’s Christmas tree.
This product was provided for review by Hallmark.
