The boxart shows Batman battling The Penguin. It also got the Batman symbol and the DC Comics symbols at the bottom. The back of the box is mostly green. It doesn't go well with Batman. It shows an alternate action shot and all the play features. The sides of the box shows the DC Comics Super Heroes logo and also the same illustration as the front of the box. On the top of the box features Batman in his Scuba Suit as the 1:1 figure. It also shows the name of the set in different languages. Contents Inside the box you'll find an instruction booklet and three unnumbered bags. Surprisingly, they do not include a comic nor a sticker sheet in this set. It’s uncommon to see super heroes sets without the comic and sticker sheet nowadays. The Instructions The instructions have a green background (as all of the 2014 DC Comics sets do so). It’s quite straight forward and easy to follow for young kids. There are a few ads for The LEGO Movie , DC and the LEGO Club in here. Also, there isn’t the DC minifigures lineup picture, for some reason. These appear at the end of the instructions. Interesting Pieces These are the interesting pieces in this set. The gun for Batman is new to me. It’s also nice to get the 1x1 round tile piece with the eye printing on it. The grey short legs is also new to me. Note that the piece on the upper right corner is printed, not a sticker. Minifigures The minifigures are the main selling point of this set as they are all new and exclusive. First of all is Scuba Batman. Here is a reference image for him from the comics. Batman comes in a new, mostly dark blue suit that is supposed to give him the ability to dive. I personally like this figure a lot. Here is the back view of Scuba Batman, with his air tanks on for him to breath underwater. Nothing really interesting. Here is a look of him with all his gears taken off. You can see the front torso printing much clearer. Interestingly, unlike the other Batmans LEGO has made, this one has a unique face. The first face is actually the same print as the others, but this one is on a black minifig head. Here is a look at the back of him without the air tank and mask. You can see his full backprinting and his second face. It’s interesting. At last, this is the view of him withal his gear on. His got a nice gun. You can also see what he looks like with his second face. I prefer the first face better. Next, it’s the Penguin. Here is a reference image for him from the comics. This one is different from the previous one. The biggest difference is that he now has a big coat on. It looks pretty good and I really wanted to have this fig since the pictures have come out. Here is a look of him from the back. You can see the back backprinting. Here is him with all his accessories taken off. You can see the front torso printing clearly in this picture. The Build First of all is Batman’s scuba vehicle. Here is a front view of Batman’s scuba vehicle. Again, the bat symbol on it is printed on the brick, not a sticker. Here are the side views of the boat. You’ve got flick fire missiles at both of the sides of the boat. Here is the back view of the boat. Nothing special at all. There’s a clip here where you can keep Batman’s gun there. Here is a look of the first part of the boat. This is what it looks from the top. This is what it looks with Batman riding it. Next, it’s The Penguin’s duck boat, it’s kind of annoying for The Penguin to have a duck vehicle instead of a penguin vehicle. Here’s the front view, nothing special. Here are the sides of the boat. It really looks like a duck at this angle. This also get flick fires. Here is the back with the rotor of the boat. Nothing special. Here’s what it looks like with The Penguin in it. Then, it’s the robot penguins. Here is a front view of them. They’ve got dynamite of their hands, orange feet and a yellow beak. Here’s the sides of them, you can see they only has one wing each, the another hand is just a simple clip. Here is the back of them. The 1x1 cheese slope pieces are the tails of them, I suppose. Lastly, it’s a block of ice. Noting too special except the translucent light blue diamond. The Complete Set Here’s the complete set. I think it fits together nicely. You get cool vehicles for Batman and The Penguin and two exclusive figures. I think it worth the money as a thirteen-dollar set. Ratings Design: 5/5 - I love the duck boat. It's so cute. It looks like a duck. It's my favorite penguin vehicle in this line so far (because we’ve only got one penguin vehicle!). Build: 5/5 - The build is quite satisfying. Plus, there’s no stickers to put on! Minifigs: 5/5 - The minifigs are pretty good. Scuba Batman looks great. The Penguin looks pretty good in his coat style suit. Playability: 3.5/5 – There’s actually not much play features in this set, except for the flick missiles. I’d like to see the block of ice exploding like in the Artic Batman set last year. Price: 4/5 - 136 pieces is a decent amount for a $13 set, especially a licensed one. Overall: 4.5/5 - This set is a good value. It gives you one of Batman's in one of his special suits, a new Penguin. It's a good buy for Batman fans of all ages.
