BatDeanj

September 9th is the rumoured release date. Hope we get a mini figure list by June I can definitely see it being x mansion or sanctum size with 10-12 figures. I just hope on rebrickable we can combine 2 to get a bigger one like the 3 floor moc upgrades for the x mansion

Good April fools, probably just rubbing salt in the wounds though

I’m just so excited for the set it’s the set I’ve wanted for so long. I was debating doing a moc of one or using the instructions on rebrickable before the rumour All I hope is that it’s a full building with a closed back like all the marvel Modular’s Looks dark and gothic and better than the 2012 one which it will be replacing have some interior rooms you can set up a scene like Harleen interviewing joker. Prisoners escaping or a mess hall for villains to be posed not in cells. At least 1 new character like mad hatter, ventriloquist or zassz. Hope to get a green skinned ivy too with the rumoured 2900 piece count I hope there will be expansion Mocs to make it bigger like the x mansion. im also wondering if I can make the botanical garden work as part of it but we shall wait and see.

Just had a thought the 66 Batcave had 9 exclusive mini figures, a few even had leg printing and duel moulds. I know this was 9 years ago and inflation ect but that does mean Lego can easily make 9 new ones for Arkham especially for double the price. I imagine the only reused parts will be batman cowl + head + cape, joker head + hair, two face head, mr freeze head and torso. I expect we will get 10 named characters and the rest will be unnamed guards/doctors. I also expect 1 purist figure like warned sharp or Jim Gordon (like max shrek and professor x). It was around March 2023 we found out lots of info about the shadow box. The movie it was based on and it being "enclosed" by rocks. so I'm hoping we get more info soon like if its modular and hopefully a minifigure list. Already have my purist officer balls ready.

I think it needs a closed back at that price point otherwise it’s just a play set

Im kind of hoping it can be expanded like the x-mansion. those of us that want it bigger can buy two and moc it together, its its a modular layout this should be easy. Just hope the rooms arnt tiny

We don’t need to waste pieces on a bat vehicle we have hundreds already. Only thing extra should be gate and a transport truck.

I doubt that will be the line up. As we talked about earlier I expect the same new prints as the x mansion. batman either full reuse or new torso. new robin/other bat family - not that batgirl hopefully probably right on joker and freeze i think Harleen will be in instead and maybe an empty costume to change into. new torso for the guards mostly purist for gordon New ivy new two face torso mad hatter - I do think we will get 1/2 new characters as a selling point for the set Any more if it’s over 10

dunno how reliable it is, but in this video he said Arkham is based off the comics Skip to 9:00 ish

so it will be smaller than the x-mansion and more expensive.... eww was expecting a little under 4000 similar to the museum. Where is the source from i dont see it on insta

My only reference is avengers tower and the shadow box as I kept up with those before release and I swear we knew what they were based on very early on. I'm only interested in the train battle and the Black Pearl outside of Arkham this year and both we know almost everything important.

I'm surprised we have had so much more detailed leaks from marvel and nothing for DC. we know the Oscorp building is based off the comics and what minifigures are included. we know more about the spiderman 2 train battle but we haven't had any updates from Arkham, both are releasing around the same time. This isn't a Lego hates DC thing its just if every other superhero leak has more detail why not Arkham. its my dream set I've wanted for years and the fact of it being based of the game or batman forever will be massive to know.

I do think your right to expect the same number of new prints as the x mansion. We have BTAS Batman, Joker, Mr freeze that can easily be bleed fully into the set. Harley would work but i think they will include Harleen more likely, but can have both. I do think Catwoman will be exclusive to the skyline and I dont think that 4+ batgirl will fit. You prediction is bang on for batman forever based but if its comic or BTAS with 15 I think we will have; Batman Joker Mr freeze Harleen Robin Ivy Twoface Mad hatter Scarecrow Riddler Hugo strange (purist) quinzy sharp (purist) general guard male and female (purist) Jim Gordon(mostly Purist) If its comic batman's torso would take up a slot. The jumpsuit male would take up a slot. If ivy is the only female inmate we could see her torso or a female jumpsuit. Robin's torso would take up a slot Then 1/2 extra for nightwing/batgirl/gordon/harleen I just don't think there is space for new torsos with every inmate plus the heroes. I hope you are right though. After thinking about it I can see ivy having a costume torso just because she is likely the only female inmate in the asylum. They might have Harley as a spare outfit but I'm sure they will have Harleen as a member of staff.

I recon 15 figs is possible but I very much doubt a big fig like bane would be included. I recon 7/8 inmates all with a jumpsuit maybe 1 breaking IN wouldn't have it. 5 purist guards/doctors (including harleen, crane, strange) and Jim Gordon. Batman, Robin and maybe batgirl/nightwing

If they are just printing new faces and having similar jumpsuits for the villains it still could sadly. But also means there's a similar chance for the games....

If its closer to 15 I'm 99% sure all the inmates will be in jumpsuits

Do we know when the release month is for arkham? is it still "summer" or is there something pointing to another month.

Just want to know what it’s based on right now but figs would be nice as well

Yeah well I would think that about the shadow box only based on returns but here we are. tbf because of the flash movie featuring it, it makes more sense but feels like a similar mentality to now. Classic Batman set where the audience is adults. I wonder if they would have done that if the flash movie was cancelled early on.

I think your right but it’s sad that it’s a possibility I was thinking is there more of a chance it’s based off the games. As there aren’t many dc sets to pull figures from so they might as well do originals?as I’m 100% sure everyone knows this version would sell the best.

Bane would have to be a big fig. Theres no way they have the budget for 7 new character print and a big fig

sorry meant arkham hahaha. i am going insane

If the Batmoboile is connected to the batcave, surly there would be 2 figs in the batmobile set

Surely they would know if it’s based on Batman forever or Arkham right have they ever mixed up like this before?

We found out the shadow box was based on returns in march so we will be wondering for another 2 months probably
