Watch a video review below with close ups of the cool mini figures contained in this Marvel Super Heron LEGO set.

Wolverine has only his wits, his bravery, his claws and motorcycle to help him survive a deadly attack by Magneto and Deadpool flying in his helicopter. These two powerful adversaries will test Wolverine to his limit and with no other X-Men around to help him he will be forced to get away on his motorcycle.

The LEGO Helicopter & Motorcycle

Deadpool's helicopter is where most of the 201 pieces of this set are employed, making it a fun vehicle to build. The color scheme is perfect for its pilot and it looks really smart in its grey, red and black colors.

The cockpit has enough room for Deadpool to sit and pilot the chopper and a section in the back can carry Magneto or other mini figures. Flick-firing missiles are located on both sides of the helicopter and there are clips for Deadpool's weapons to be stored while he is flying the vehicle. This is one of LEGO's best helicopter models and kids are going to love it.

The motorcycle is a small piece which needs virtually no building at all, so modelling fans will not like that, but children will get a lot of play time from it, making Wolverine ride into battle or escape on it.

As with vehicles in most of the super heroes sets they are not what people are buying the sets for, although they are fun to play with. The main attraction of this Wolverine LEGO set are the three excellent mini figures.
