Minifigures (6): Poison Ivy, The Joker, Commissioner Gordon, Dick Grayson, Barbara Gordon, Batman Hype Score: 2/5 I might get it if it’s on a decent sale I’ll be very interested to seeing this set in person. The side vehicles look fun, but the main structure isn’t all that attractive in the promotional photos. This set looks pretty good, especially from the minifigure department but I’m still on the fence about the actual LEGO model.
Oh, and an updated brickbuilt giant rubber ducky!įor the second largest set in the wave, we get 4 main characters, Alfred (who is thus far exclusive here), Batman, Bruce Wayne and The Penguin, although we do get 3 additional Batsuit variants! The Penguin is the main villain in the set, responsible for breaking into Bruce Wayne’s secret underground lair by using a few evil (and possibly) robotic penguins armed with buzzsaws.

A series of small vignettes or modules are connected to one slightly larger hub that looks set to contain a ton of interactive play features built-in. The Batcave looks like a fun little playset, that’s quite light on the actual Batcave. Minifigures (7): Batman, Bruce Wayne, Alfred Pennyworth, The Penguin, The Rat Pack Batsuit, Scu-Batsuit, Raging Batsuit Hype Score: 3/5 – Buy, but wait for a sale. The price is also quite hefty, so this is one of those sets that I’ll only pick up when it gets inevitably discounted – it’s practically the same price as a Creator Expert modular building!

It doesn’t really seem like a full building, more a facade and a doll-house like back, where you have separate sections of Arkham Asylum. While the piece count and minifigure might be impressive, I’m on the fence about the set based on the photos provided. There’s a joke here about orange being the new Bat. This set is the largest out of the entire first wave and packs a whopping 12 minifigures, featuring all the main Batman villains in orange jumpsuits. Harleen Quinzel, The Joker, Poison Ivy, Two-Face, Catwoman, The Riddler + 1 StatueĪrkham Asylum is one of Gotham’s most famous landmarks, and also serves as temporary accommodation for Gotham’s meanest villains – because Batman is all hung up about killing his foes. Minifigures (13): Batman, Robin, Barbara Gordon, Aaron Cash, GCPD Officer x2, Dr. Links to the product pages might not work, but they should be live when the pages get restored – possibly closer to the New Year when these sets will be available for purchase. As of yesterday, they seem to have been taken down, along with all the new 2017 sets which was a little bizarre. The official release date for the first wave (the remaining sets will be released in the second half of 2017) will be on 1 January worldwide.Įditor’s Note: When I started writing this piece, the product pages were still up on the Australian store. With this first preview roundup, I’m going to take a look at the first round of The LEGO Batman sets from 2017 and share some really early thoughts.
#2017 lego sets leaked movie#
Just like The LEGO Movie that laid the foundation for LEGO’s foray onto the silver screen, we’re going to see blockbuster support from The LEGO Group when it comes to LEGO sets. Yes, my money is on it being better than Nolan’s The Dark Knight. So here’s where you come in – if you want me to consider any sets for review, please let me know in the comments and I’ll do my best to incorporate them into my editorial calendar.įrom the trailers that have been shown off and the star-studded (heh) cast, it looks like The LEGO Batman Movie is all set up to be another smash hit and eventually become the best Batman movie ever. In 2017, I do want to give more power to the community to decide which sets I ultimately review. I will be trying to review as many of these sets as I can humanly (and financially) can to offer you a more in-depth look but I’ll most likely pass over a vast majority of sets. In this series of posts, I’ll be spotlighting each theme that’s set to be released in early 2017. With 2017 almost upon us, it’s time to look ahead and preview the many exciting LEGO themes and sets that will be vying for your attention next year.
