Synthesized Verdict

"Green Lantern vs. Sinestro is a minifigure-driven set that delivered three genuinely collectible DC characters at an accessible price, and the 98% owner recommendation rate confirms it hit its mark. The builds are modest, but for DC collectors this set is hard to fault."

Green Lantern vs. Sinestro from 2015 earns a Recommended verdict with a BrickScore of 79.9, built almost entirely on the strength of three highly desirable minifigures: the first widely available comic-accurate Hal Jordan Green Lantern, Sinestro, and a Space Batman. Owners back this up emphatically, with 322 ratings averaging 4.61 out of 5 and a 98% recommendation rate from LEGO's own buyer data. The builds themselves are functional but secondary to the figure value.

LOVED (7)

01First widely available comic-accurate Green Lantern minifigure (the prior one was a pricey Comic-Con exclusive)
02Sinestro minifigure with unique yellow Techno-blade weapon and detailed dual-sided printing
03Space Batman with distinctive spacesuit torso printing and two sets of wings plus an alternate head
04Spring-loaded missile shooters on Green Lantern's jet that are concealed and harder to fire accidentally than flick-fire missiles
05Sinestro's prison pod with a super-jumper play feature and printed Yellow Lantern Corps symbol
06No stickers in the set, with printed elements throughout
07Strong value: three exclusive-quality minifigures at the $19.99 price point

CRITICIZED (7)

01Green Lantern's ship has no underbelly, giving it a half-built appearance from below
02Space Batman's wings are thin, flexible plastic film rather than rigid pieces and can arrive bent
03Green Lantern received no power construct weapon accessory, while Sinestro did
04Slight leg-printing misprints noted on some figures
05Sinestro's hand color (white) was considered inaccurate by some reviewers who expected his skin tone
06Playability consensus at 58.3 is the weakest dimension, with the builds offering limited play beyond the shooting functions
07Batman was seen as a somewhat random inclusion by some DC-focused collectors who would have preferred another Lantern Corps member

What reviewers are saying

"DC Super Heroes sets have been generally disappointing in the past couple of years, which has been particularly frustrating since the theme has a great deal of potential."

Brickset Reviews

"It seems that LEGO finally clued on to the fact that LEGO fans actually like other non-Batman superheroes from the DC Universe."

Jay's Brick Blog

"it's not modified it's just taken straight from Lego's own intellectual property their own license and actually used in a different licenses product so that's interesting to me"

9491 Geonosian Cannon — The soft plastic wings in 76025 are similar in construction to the Geonosian wings in 9491, but with new printed detailing and a more useful trans-clear bracket system with two studs.

6862 Superman vs Lex Power Armour — Both $40 Super Heroes sets that pack tremendous value at very affordable price points.

76000 Arctic Batman vs Mr Freeze — Both $40 Super Heroes sets that pack tremendous value at very affordable price points.

6866 Wolverine's Chopper Showdown — Both $40 Super Heroes sets that pack tremendous value at very affordable price points.

Value drivers

Brickset Reviews: Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) - the primary draw of the set; first widely available LEGO appearance of this essential Justice League character.

Jay's Brick Blog: Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) minifigure is the primary driver - long-awaited first retail appearance, previously only available in $400 Comic Con exclusive.

Exclusivity

Brickset Reviews: Wide retail; Justice League branding on US packaging, Batman logo on European packaging.

Jay's Brick Blog: Wide retail release (AU$39.99 at LEGO.com, Barnes & Noble, standard retail). Not exclusive.

Resale

Brickset Reviews: Expected to hold or appreciate in value, particularly due to the Green Lantern minifigure being long-awaited and core to the DC roster.

Jay's Brick Blog: Strong aftermarket demand expected due to minifigure desirability, particularly Green Lantern. Reviewer's comment about willing to buy set for just the Green Lantern minifigure suggests strong collector demand.

Standout parts (per reviewers)

4L bar in trans-yellow
First appearance of this piece in this colour. Useful for MOCs and custom builds. Serves as Sinestro's axe head.
Spring-loaded missile launcher (new piece design)Value
New pieces with the barrel of the hand-held weapon now fixed to a 1x2 plate, providing opportunities for incorporation into custom builds.
Bat wings (soft plastic with printed details)
Soft plastic wings similar to Geonosian wings from 9491, printed with metallic struts, attached using trans-clear neck bracket with two studs on the back rather than the usual one. Unobtrusive trans-clear colour makes them useful for MOCs.
Stud shooters (new design on 1x2 plates)
Fixed barrel design on 1x2 plates allows for customization and incorporation into MOCs.
Printed round flat dome with Sinestro logo
Printed piece rather than sticker, reviewer celebrates this as a desirable alternative to LEGO's typical sticker approach.
Green Lantern logo printed on fighter jet snoutValue
Printed detail on the spacecraft, another example of printed elements the reviewer appreciates.

What Owners Say · summarized from 42 written reviews (LEGO, Amazon, Walmart)

Owners overwhelmingly praise the set for three exclusive minifigures at a low $20 price point, especially the long-awaited Green Lantern and well-designed Sinestro, though the spaceship build and flimsy Batman wings receive mixed reactions.
