KDL863 Custom Hero Minifigures: An 8-Figure Collector’s Guide

KDL863 set of eight third-party custom hero brick figures with capes, weapons and energy accessories

KDL863 brings together eight third-party custom brick figures in one character-driven collection. The lineup mixes familiar caped heroes with cosmic outsiders, armored fighters and more unusual supporting characters. What makes the set interesting is not simply the number of figures: each design uses a different combination of head printing, costume detailing, capes, weapons and translucent effects.

This guide looks closely at the figures shown in the product photos and explains which details stand out, who the set is best suited for, and how collectors can display the lineup.

What is included in the KDL863 collection?

The complete lineup contains eight figures:

  • Supergirl (K2399)
  • Lobo (K2400)
  • Superman (K2401)
  • Metamorpho (K2402)
  • Green Lantern (K2403)
  • Robot Butler (K2404)
  • Ruthye Marye Knoll (K2405)
  • Mister Terrific (K2406)

Several figures also include alternate facial expressions or distinctive accessories. That variety gives the set more display options than a lineup built around eight similar costumes.

A closer look at all eight custom figures

Supergirl (K2399): layered printing and a fabric cape

KDL863 Supergirl custom brick figure shown with full outfit, torso emblem and printed skirt and boots
Supergirl: full figure, torso print, and leg detailing.

Supergirl has one of the brightest color combinations in the set. The dark blue torso uses fine panel lines around the chest emblem, while the gold belt continues across the waist. Her red skirt and boots are printed across the legs, helping the lower half look finished from the front and sides.

The long wavy hairpiece frames the face well, and the soft red fabric cape gives the figure a more natural silhouette than a rigid cape. An alternate head adds another expression for photography or scene building. This is one of the easiest figures in the set to recommend to collectors who prefer classic superhero colors with modern suit detailing.

Lobo (K2400): the strongest accessory package

KDL863 Lobo custom brick figure with printed jacket, hooked weapon and chain accessory
Lobo: full figure, back graphic, hooked weapon, and chain.

Lobo is the most visually aggressive figure in the group. The gray skin, red eyes and long textured hair create a strong head sculpt, while the printed biker vest, chains, skull motifs and distressed trousers carry the design across the torso, arms and legs.

His large hooked weapon and loose chain accessory add movement and make him an immediate centerpiece. The alternate face increases the posing options. For collectors who value accessories and dense printing, Lobo is arguably the standout of the entire KDL863 wave.

Superman (K2401): a clean modern take on a classic silhouette

KDL863 Superman custom brick figure showing suit printing, sleeve detail and red cape emblem
Superman: front design, sleeve printing, and the emblem on the shaped cape.

Superman keeps the recognizable red-and-blue color balance but adds layered armor-like lines across the torso, sleeves and legs. The gold belt is sharply defined, and the leg printing continues the suit design down to the boots.

The red molded cape features an emblem on the back and holds a crisp shape on display. Two face options allow the figure to shift between a calm portrait and a more battle-worn expression. This is the safest recommendation for collectors who want a central figure around which the rest of the lineup can be arranged.

Metamorpho (K2402): the most creative display piece

KDL863 Metamorpho custom brick figure with transparent stand and multicolor elemental printing
Metamorpho: transparent display effect, split torso texture, and elemental leg printing.

Metamorpho immediately breaks up the uniformity of the collection. The torso is divided into orange and purple elemental textures, while the legs use different colors and surface patterns to suggest changing materials. The pale head is covered with swirling graphic lines that reinforce the transformation theme.

The transparent rising-effect stand is the key feature. It lifts the figure above the shelf and creates the impression of an elemental body forming beneath it. Because of its unusual colors and vertical display, Metamorpho works especially well at the back or center of a group scene.

Green Lantern (K2403): bright energy effects and full-suit printing

KDL863 Green Lantern custom brick figure with detailed suit and translucent green chain effects
Green Lantern: full figure, detailed suit print, and translucent energy accessories.

Green Lantern combines a white, black and green uniform with fine technological linework across the torso, shoulders, arms and legs. The light hairpiece and restrained facial expression keep the design readable despite the detailed suit.

Two translucent green chain effects attach at the hands and create a larger footprint on the shelf. They can be posed as energy constructs, restraints or motion effects. This is a strong choice for builders who like adding action to otherwise static minifigure displays.

Robot Butler (K2404): metallic color and retro-futuristic character

KDL863 blue Robot Butler custom brick figure with visor, chest panels and rear mechanical printing
Robot Butler: metallic blue finish with front and rear mechanical linework.

The Robot Butler uses a metallic blue finish, a single-lens visor and printed mechanical panels from the chest down through the legs. Black and silver linework prevents the blue body from looking flat, while the small chest emblem gives the design a playful retro-robot feel.

A rigid blue cape adds a surprising heroic silhouette. The figure is less human than the rest of the lineup, which makes it useful as a visual break between caped characters and armored fighters.

Ruthye Marye Knoll (K2405): detailed armor and a large battle axe

KDL863 Ruthye Marye Knoll custom brick figure with braided hair, gold armor print and large axe
Ruthye Marye Knoll: the oversized axe, gold chest armor, and detailed back print.

Ruthye Marye Knoll is built around black armor with gold highlights. The chest, belt and leg panels use dense linear printing, and the long braided hairpiece gives the figure a distinctive profile from every angle. Facial marks and alternate expressions add a battle-worn personality.

The oversized double-headed axe is taller than the figure and instantly communicates the character’s role as a fighter. Collectors who prefer fantasy armor, strong weapons and darker colors will find this one particularly display-friendly.

Mister Terrific (K2406): sharp graphic design with a spherical accessory

KDL863 Mister Terrific custom brick figure with geometric suit, back lettering and spherical accessory
Mister Terrific: full figure, rear suit graphics, and the spherical accessory.

Mister Terrific wears a black, white and red suit with clean geometric blocks across the torso and legs. The sleeve lettering and script on the back reward a closer look, while the face print creates a high-contrast mask effect.

The black-and-white spherical accessory, accented with blue and gold, gives the figure a recognizable piece of equipment without overwhelming the costume. It is a good example of how one small accessory can make a relatively streamlined figure feel complete.

Which figures have the best details?

  • Best overall accessories: Lobo, thanks to the hooked weapon, chain and alternate face.
  • Best display effect: Metamorpho, whose transparent rising stand adds height and motion.
  • Best classic hero design: Superman, with balanced printing and a shaped red cape.
  • Best energy accessories: Green Lantern, with two translucent green chain constructs.
  • Best armored design: Ruthye Marye Knoll, combining gold detailing, braided hair and an oversized axe.
  • Best unusual character: Robot Butler, whose metallic blue body and visor stand apart from the human figures.

Who is the KDL863 set for?

This collection is best suited to fans who enjoy complete team displays, character variety and photography. Superman and Supergirl give the lineup an immediate visual anchor, while Lobo, Metamorpho and Robot Butler add contrasting shapes and colors. Green Lantern’s effects, Ruthye’s axe and Mister Terrific’s sphere make it easy to build action scenes without adding many extra parts.

If you collect individual figures, Lobo and Metamorpho offer the most dramatic standalone displays. If you prefer balanced shelf arrangements, the full eight-character lineup has a useful mix of red, blue, green, black and translucent elements.

Simple display ideas

  • Place Superman and Supergirl at the front as the visual center of the group.
  • Raise Metamorpho at the back using the included transparent effect stand.
  • Angle Lobo’s chain and Green Lantern’s energy pieces outward to widen the scene.
  • Use Robot Butler and Mister Terrific between brighter figures to balance the color palette.
  • Keep Ruthye’s axe slightly behind the neighboring figure so the weapon does not hide printed details.

Final recommendation

KDL863 is easy to recommend as a display-focused third-party figure collection. It delivers more than a row of similar costumes: soft and rigid capes, alternate expressions, a large weapon, chains, energy effects, a spherical accessory and a transparent elemental stand all contribute something different. Lobo and Metamorpho are the most dramatic individual figures, while Superman and Supergirl give the complete group a strong visual center.
