More details on the upcoming Batman sets.

- logo includes Batman and golden Batman

- BvS and Battinson batmobiles include Batman, no mention of anyone else

- third Batmobile is based on Batman and Robin and included Batman, no mention of anyone else

So we’re getting 3 Batmobiles, 5 Batman minifigures, and 1 Batman logo. Lego DC is back… to being exclusively Batman!

Bro we can’t even get Jonkler minifigs anymore.

 

Is there a lore reason why Lego in 2026 seems to suck even more than this year?

ARE THEY FOR REAL??

A wave of 4 sets and the minifigs are all Batman variants :roflmao: Don’t get me wrong, the choices for the 3 Batmobiles are great and Battinson with dual-moulded legs and Clooney Batman sound awesome, but we now have a BvS set without the S and a B&R set without the R.

And the logo set’s minifigs sounds like a joke. I was joking when I said this is now a literal Batman theme, and turns out it is!!

The prop car for the Batman and Robin Batmobile was 30 feet long, fifty percent longer than the prop car for the 1989 Batmobile. There's no way the Lego set will be fifty percent longer at the $30 price point than the overpriced car at the $48 price point, but that's ok. As a single seater vehicle, the 1997 car is one Batmobile that can easily be scaled down without losing any essential features. Would have been good to have Robin's motorcycle as part of the set though. One set from the movie called Batman and Robin, and it doesn't even have Robin. That's pathetic.

For the Logo I like the idea of a golden fig especially if it’s based on the 2006 minifig. Just wish they included a few villains as well. Maybe the list isn’t complete (I’m deluding myself)

I kinda suspected the Batmobile would be one fig, so I’m happy they put effort into them at least. Getting a new armor mould confirms it’ll be the armoured Batfleck. Dual moulded boots and cowl printing is great. At least they aren’t just like the Dark knight batman with a new Torso

....I never thought we'd ever get the Clooney Batmobile or Batsuit in a set, I was betting on 76333 being the Arkham Knight Batmobile or even the Brave and The Bold Batmobile if these sets are tie-ins for the game. Though I would've preferred getting the Forever Batmobile first, I think everyone likes that more one out of the 2 Schumacher Batmobile designs. Now it's the only main live action Batmobile that doesn't have a minifig scale version to go with the others.

The updated The Batman Batmobile is a Day 1 hour 1 purchase, ever since I saw that design from the game I was hoping that it would be made into a set. And with how it's been pushed in the marketing for the game, I knew there was no way that Lego was going to pass up an opportunity to release it in tandem with the game. The BVS Batmobile might be worth a pickup if I find it on sale at some point.

The Batman logo coming with just 2 minifigures for $80...come on man. If it's supposed to be a 20th anniversary set for the 2006 Batman theme, only getting TWO minifigures (both being Batman) when Lego could've at least done a couple anniversary figures for the main lineup is pathetic. Getting a gold Batman over ANY of the villains, what are we doing here? I just hope that regular Batman is a straight up rerelease of the grey 2006 minifigure, that's all I'm asking for now.

The real disappointment here is the logo’s minifig selection. A gold Man is cool and all, but they really should’ve included some villains. Or any character that isn’t bloody Man :snicker:

Not even including a Jonkler is diabolical. 

What happened to the “plans” for the new heads in Arkham and new hairpiece for Two Face? Are there more sets coming next summer or were the plans to never use them again?

This is so funny, this theme has now decided even Joker is too much. Batman will now fight that archfiend gold Batman with his 78 Batmobiles

These are going to look so much worse in value next to the similarly-priced vehicle sets from Marvel which pretty consistently get 3 minifigs each, even if they are re-uses most of the time.

How am I supposed to eat this Batman & Robin Batmobile without my Robin? Between the '66, Kilmer, and now Clooney Batmobiles all excluding him, it makes me think someone at Lego has a genuine vendetta against Dick Grayson.

The new cowl mold does suit Batfleck's armoured version more than any of the other live-action batsuits, but it would be a little strange to have him driving the Batmobile in a massive armoured suit. At least it isn't his horrific design from the start of The Flash.

I will not tolerate The Batman slander >:(

Gunn said Batman 1989 and TDK Trilogy were awful, that tells you all you need to know about him and his vision, he'll turn Batman into a joke too, The Flash director is still directing Brave and the bold, please don't let Gunn touch Batman

Supergirl and Lanterns will never come close to The Batman

Tired of the Gunn Glazing for real

All he does is GOTG/Suicide Squad with a different name

Based on the Dual moulded legs for the Pattinson minifig, it’s safe to assume it’s same one as the game. Which means we should hopefully get a new Batman face, it looks to be printed on a black head. I’m so sick of the one they’re using now

Man, this is... how do they even do this?

Three batmobiles and the logo was bad enough, but the figures are FIVE CONSECUTIVE BATMEN? There aren't even five different sets? What marketing is telling them that collectors have no interest in other characters and kids have no interest in batman fighting anyone?

I think people are sleeping on how awful the logo's going to be, I assumed it would be the black bat in a yellow oval, but just the bat, and "greebled?" What? The one thing going for the SW and Marvel logos was that they looked like fine representations of the logo. I wouldn't personally buy them but for giant collections they'd be a fun signifier. The black, greebled bat logo is just going to look like a weird batwing and get completely lost in the throng of black bat-vehicles that are all the theme gets anymore.

Just give up the license at this point lego.

Curious that a new ‘shoulder armour’ (pauldrons?) piece is being made for the BvS Batman whose normal suit doesn’t have any sort of armour, yet no pauldrond for the 2022 Batman. Very weird, unless it’s armoured Batman driving the BvS Batmobile.

I love that we’re getting the Battinsonmobile again, but this entire wave reeks of laziness. Hopefully the Batmobiles are at least designed well.

I think the Bruce Wayne Drifter face from The Batman 2022 sets is still fine for them to use, looks like him

It is most likely the Armoured version and it will reuse the Batman Forever Cowl

I sure am glad to have the 2017 Batfleck from the Knightcrawler set, that's his best look

I would say either the Batmobile from Batman and Robin OR the old 1940s Batmobile. I think it will be a cold day in hell from Mr.Freeze before we get these two Batmobiles as LEGO sets. 

 Batman | Jim's World and Welcome To ItBatmobile Batman & Robin 1997 – Deano In America

You know, maybe this is a lesson to keep my damn mouth shut. 

The Greebled Batman Logo could look cool if done correctly/

Anyways, here's hoping for a Lex Mech VS Supergirl as our only summer 2026 DC set.

Assumably the armored version, it'll add a little bit of visual distinction in what's going to be a wave of extremely similar minifigures.

Could it? I just don't see it. It's not big enough to be something like the build for TLBM, a greebled lego batman logo isn't

Nah, Tactical Batman all the way. This is a batman who fell and was redeemed, and a batman who's now a warfighter rather than a detective, who fights gods and aliens. The tactical suit is a visual realization of that story. If only he wasn't so expensive.

Use your powers for good next time! :tongue:

I don't see what all the complaining is about. LEGO Batman himself that he only works in black. And sometimes very, very dark grey. And gold. All gold. You know, for when it's a full moon, or something.

At this stage, willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on the logo. It might be cool. Choosing two Batman figures seems like a mistake though. Let's see.

Nice to see more variety in the $30 Batmobile line, but it's OK to spread it out over three years and mix up the sets a little. Real shame if they only include a single figure in each of them, although I suspect so for 'only' $30.
