Hopefully they continue the BTAS sets. Preferably a new Batcave and Arkham Asylum. I'd love to get more of the cast in their animated forms beyond just the five minifigures we currently have.

TheBatstan Posted April 30 (edited) I'm super late on seeing the set pics, but I was starting to think we wouldn't get images of them till May. Though since both Ashnflash and MiniSuperheroesToday took down their reviews, I don't think we were supposed to see them this early (even though there's been screenshots shared on Twitter/Instagram/various Lego news sites at this point, so the genie can't be put back into the bottle). The mech is an instant pass after seeing that the minifigure isn't exclusive or at least a LITTLE bit different, instead it's that godforsaken black suit from 2012 again. Most of the Marvel mechs got exclusive minifigure designs, what happened here? The Batpod set is also skippable unless it goes on a steep discount, though I do appreciate the detail gone into it. But even so, I would've taken a minifigure scale version over Lego trying to make their own action figure any day. Now for the main event, the BTAS Batmobile. The microscale Batmobile in the Gotham skyline set really was an indication for what we'd be in for here in terms of the color scheme. I've seen a lot people think it's sacrilege to get a Batmobile that isn't all black, but after looking at a bunch of scenes of it from the show, I think Lego went with the right choice here. I know that in "Perchance to Dream", Bruce literally says it's "a big car that's all BLACK", but then you look at it in almost any episode like "The Mechanic" and...it looks pretty dark blue to me. But if you really wanted to make it all black it'll be a very very easy color swap, like this photoshop edit from thedarkwright on IG. The only major problem will be with the headlight stickers as they're on a dark blue backing, so you may have to use a brickbuilt option there. And thank god we can remove those ugly as hell stud shooters, they really make it look like a toy from the 90s with those on. The biggest issue for me though is that it's ANOTHER one seater Batmobile. This one is an even bigger offender than the 1989 Batmobile being a one seater since Batman almost always had someone driving with him in the passenger seat in the show. Why does Lego keep regressing and acting like they didn't already make 3 Batmobiles that were two seaters in the past few years, along with alllll the advancements in the Speed Champions theme in terms of cars that can fit two minifigures while still being 8 studs wide. Now we know why they didn't bother to make a BTAS Robin minifigure, there's no place for him to sit unless you put him on the studs on the canopy roof. How is it that BTAS Batmobile MOC's like this one from jerrybuildsbricks on IG have been able to make it 8 studs wide and STILL fit two minifigures, yet it's seemingly impossible for the official version? I know I'm definitely modifying it to be a two seater as soon as I get my hands it, that's the top priority. The minifigures are a surprise as well. I'm shocked that Batman is pretty much 90% the same from the skyline set, besides that brand new cape piece which isn't just a reuse of the Doctor Strange cape. I guess I should give props to Lego for somehow finding a way to make Batman still fit in the Batmobile with it on. Though they had to keep something exclusive to the version from the skyline set, and unfortunately that amazing double sided cape was the victim this time, guess I'll have to Bricklink it. On the plus side, I'm glad the exact same jester suit Harley is in a relatively cheaper set (which is pushing it as it'll be $80 here, highway robbery), and Mr. Freeze looks great for the most part. He definitely needs something more though, an armor piece like the TLBM Freeze or one of those air tank pieces in blue would've gone a long way. But either way, I want more BTAS sets so I'll have to get this one sooner or later so that maybe we can ANYTHING that can include a new black and white suit Two-Face minifigure.

For what's worth, I think accuracy to source material doesn't matter if ignoring it gives us cooler sets. The Batmobile is definetly supposed to be black and the blue are just highlights, but it DOES look totally blue anyway. I don't think it matters whar it's SUPPOSED to look like, rather than what it FEELS like it looks. It also makes it stand out more, rather than being yet another black car.

If there are a wave of TDK sets, which next year is the 20 year anniversary for begins a Batpod in minifig scale should come before a Tumbler. I think next year will be like 2013 some batman sets and then 3 sets from the new superman film. Plus a D2C set, could be daily bugle, could be BTAS Batmobile, Could be Arkham or we could be disappointed again with a buildable Batarang Edited April 30 by BatDeanj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
