"Now I have some power to play with."
― Magneto in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

Magneto is a minifigure from the Marvel Super Heroes theme.

Description

Magneto has a new moulded helmet to depict the iconic one from the comic books and is coloured red and purple to follow his suit. His face has grey bushy eyebrows, wrinkles, and is double-sided with serious and angry expressions. He also has a cape. His torso print features his collar, muscles against his suit, and red arms with purple hands. He has back printing depicting the back of the collar and the suit against his back. His hips are purple with red legs.

This version of Magneto is based on his appearances in the X-Men comic books.

His appearance in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is identical to his physical minifigure.

He has the abilities to shoot metalballs, levitate, and magnetism.


Background

Magneto, born Erik Lensherr, is an enemy of Wolverine and the X-Men who has powers to control any metal object on the planet. Magneto, unlike the X-Men, (who want peace between mutants and people) wants mutants to dominate the world, believing that humans are beyond redemption and have lost their right to rule. He was once a friend of Professor X, the leader of the X-Men, until he decided this and they parted their ways. His survival of the Holocaust and murder of his parents fuel his belief mutants are superior.

He is the leader and founder of the Brotherhood of Mutants, which also includes Mystique, Juggernaut, Pyro, Toad, Mastermind, Blob and Sabretooth.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

Magneto and his Brotherhood are part of the super villians assembled by Dr. Doom and Loki to collect the pieces of the Silver Surfer's board.
