Synthesized Verdict

"Clayface Splat Attack scores 82.6 and is Highly Recommended: expert reviewers and 474 owners (4.79 average) agree that this brick-built villain figure is one of the most creative superhero-related LEGO constructs in recent memory, with a remarkable medium nougat parts haul and a play-friendly swappable expression and arm system that justifies its price comfortably."

Clayface Splat Attack earns a Highly Recommended verdict with a BrickScore of 82.6, driven by near-unanimous expert praise for its inventive brick-built character design and exceptional parts value. Both Brickset and JANG placed it among the most interesting superhero-related constructs LEGO has produced, citing the stud-covered exterior, swappable expression elements, and a massive quantity of medium nougat parts that had never appeared together in a single set. Owner ratings track closely with expert enthusiasm at 4.79 out of 5 across 474 reviews.

What Owners Say · summarized from 21 written reviews (LEGO, Amazon, Walmart)

Owners love the Clayface design and playability, but the figure suffers from structural fragility and feels overpriced for what amounts to two minifigures and bulk brown pieces.
