Are we getting 10 cells in Arkham with the 10 villains? that's got to be most of the build plus the entrance, No space for interview rooms or doctor rooms?

No need to include doctors if there’s no offices for doctors. :wink: :tongue:

GUYS!!!

How long until we get the DC version of this? It looks cool? Yes.

The DC version will release alongside our next Superman set in 2055. :tongue:

Having watched Superman, it blows my mind that the best the Superheroes team could do this year is make another Tumbler, a Superman mech, and a quasi-UCS Batmobile on a 30 year old film.

I mean, I get it. The risk averse mindset has been formulated from getting burned on tie-in sets for unpopular content in the past. But not even having a single tie-in set for Superman is astonishingly bad. Supes, Guy Gardner, Mr Terrific (standout character), Hawkgirl, Krypto, the Superman robots…so many characters that would make for phenomenal minifigures.

Just sad. Even a single £50-£100 set would have gone a long way without breaking the bank for Lego. Even just doing the T-Craft would have made for the perfect vehicle-based set.

surely with how well the Superman movie is doing we get a set based off of it next year, right?

Its only doing well in the US

I really like the idea of the Marvel brickverse having movie and comic sets combined. I hope we see something like it for DC in the future. Perhaps that could be a good way to get movie sets alongside comic sets. A movie daily planet that can connect to a GCPD building, to a bank Two-face is robbing, Wayne tower, Star-labs. Hopefully LEGO experiment around with some DC buildings soon

Brickiverse looks like it’s a marketing tactic and nothing more. But I could see DC (and by DC, I mean Batman) getting some connectable buildings eventually if the Marvel ones do well (same as how DC eventually got mechs and modular buildings after Marvel found success with those concepts).

It was simply super, man.

 

(T-Jet when?)

Is this potentially the new TIE Avenger? :grin:

With 2026 news slowly trickling out, I’m curious if we can expect a TDKR set next year. A set with the Bat, Bat Pod, and Batman / Catwoman / Bane would be terrific.

Since we know what the Winter 2026 LEGO Star Wars and Harry Potter sets will be, what do you all think will be the DC sets for winter 2026?

I already made my predictions for Marvel, so for DC, I could see:

76334: Batman V Superman Batmobile

76335: (Comics based) Joker Mech

76336: Minifigure scale Bat-Pod (TDKR)

Nice likely list. But I’m full of hopium after Superman. And by full, I mean really full.

76334: T-Jet (Superman, Hawkgirl, Mr Terrific, Krypto, Lex and Lois.)

76335: (comics based) Green Lantern mech (Guy Gardner vs General Zod)

76337: Hammer of Boravia mech (Superman vs IYKYK)

76336: Minifigure scale Bat-Pod (TDKR): Man and Jonkler. (it’s been a hot minute since the last bat-cycle.)


Relax @legoturtle / @RiddlerDC / @imposter it’s just a non-Batman franchise getting the coverage it deserves.

No. Not even close.

I’m guessing 76334, 76345, and 76346 are DC in the upcoming winter wave.

76345 is almost assuredly a mech based on the 6+ rating and the existence of two other 6+ sets. A Green Lantern mech with Hal and John to loosely tie into the show would be ideal, but I don’t think that’ll happen because it’s TV-MA. I don’t see it being a Supergirl mech when a Superman one is on the shelf (too similar). I think the likely options are: Lobo mech with Supergirl, Guy Gardner mech with Hawkgirl, or a Bat-character mech (ie Nightwing mech with a villain or a villain mech with Batman).

The other two sets are 9+ and 7+, which probably means system scaled playsets. I’m gonna make a wild guess that both are comic based and one is Batman while the other is Superman. For Batman, I’m gonna guess a Batmobile with Penguin, Bane, Scarecrow, or Killer Croc. For Superman, I’m gonna go even wilder and says it’s a sports car for Superman reusing the Superman and Lex Luthor figures from last year’s mech with maybe one new character like Mr Terrific, Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, or Supergirl.

Spoiler

Would be hilarious if the specific version of a Superman V Ultraman mech they do is one based on the most hot button part of the movie. Genuinely think that a couple comic tie in for Supergirl and/or Superman is likely. Still probably a bit off from movie sets but who knows

We got our first poster for Supergirl. Can’t wait for those sets to release. They should look great alongside the Superman sets we definitely got this year. Lego DC is BACK!!!

Of course I'm talking about the hot button political issue of if working for bald people is ethical, obviously.

No other elements of the movie are causing political discourse, at all. Just the baldies

You kid but when we get the Supergirl buildable figure for seventy quid won't you look silly

Brick-built Krypto, House of El logo, and Lex Luthor bust sets incoming, all overpriced and with no minifigures/animals. 
 

JK (I hope).

So uhmmm.. we have an Arkham leak but it’s made in Minecraft 😂😂 That’s a new one, Lego Minecraft goat posted on Instagram 

Seems like it might not be a leak and just a cool build.. very confusing

That's a first for leaked LEGO descriptions, but I like how it looks— especially that it's higher rather than wider, and the gate is also there. 

Overall, I'm really hyped for this set. We'll probably see it sooner rather than later.

Incredibly hard to judge, but the shape and look seem to be pretty good

They put an air conditioner unit in Mr Freeze’s cell! :iamded_lol:

Looks like the LHS is going to have two stories with two sets of cells on either side (8 cells), while the RHS will have two specialized cells (Freeze on top, maybe Croc on the bottom). Hard to tell what might be in the middle section.

I wonder if Lego will unveil Arkham at SDCC this year. Been a while since they revealed something there and Arkham does come out a little over a month later.
 

Would also be the perfect opportunity for them to bring back SDCC exclusive figures with Corenswet’s Superman. :tongue:

Isn't that too soon for a reveal they are usually 2-3 weeks from release so I imagine sometime in august after the 20th.

Most D2C sets are unveiled 2-3 weeks ahead of time, but that’s not a hard set rule and there’s plenty of exceptions.

The Minecraft Arkham is 16x16, which means each of those blocks is probably 2x2 in Lego stud terms. Which means there’s only going to be that one block of sidewalk right in front of the gate. When I heard it was going to be an inverted corner, I assumed it would end up being more like the garage from a few years back. This is far more interesting. I wonder if the main modular line will follow suit and make another inverted corner like this down the road.

I think I don't follow, mind refrasing that so a dum dum like me can understand?
