durazno33 Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) Over the past month, I dedicated a lot of time and effort in up-scaling and improving Lego's Arkham Asylum set 10937. After several Bricklink orders and trips to my local used Lego store, it is much larger and with some real grounds and hopefully enjoyable. Here is a video of its assembly from parts. I hope you enjoy! Edited January 23, 2017 by durazno33 Quote
yg33 Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 this is awesome, how many sets did you use? and how many pieces? Quote
GeekByKnight Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 Now THIS is the Arkham set we need and deserve. Quote
TheLegoDr Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 It looks much more fleshed out and complete. A worthy addition to the Batverse. Although I'd prefer to see still photos instead of videos. Everyone does videos these days. I want to be able to stare at the details instead of trying to pause it. Either way, thanks for sharing. Quote
Catanas Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 Looks great! I did something very similar with mine as I too, found it to be lacking. Quote
terryfay1983 Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 no this is my fav lego set but now im thinking i need to redo mine on the scale you have! love what you have done with it. Quote
Brickporn2016 Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 Hey @durazno33, wow - as a fan of all DC- (and Marvel- ) based stuff I really enjoyed your impressive recreation and improvement of the Asylum! Very beautiful and atmospheric with all its details - best of all it's really a nice and perfect MOC to be displayed, having a real base and area around. Cheers, Cris Quote
Kizmoz Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Awesome job! I really love those Gargoyle Statues and how you've created Ivy in the new style but with the original :D Makes me wish I bought more than one Arkham set when I had the chance :/ Any plans for trying it with the LEGO Batman movie Arkham?

I didn't keep track of piece count but the original set takes 1619 pieces and this is about 5 times the size. That plus the base I'd say around 10000 pieces. 19 hours ago, TheLegoDr said: It looks much more fleshed out and complete. A worthy addition to the Batverse.

I haven't purchased that one yet but that one could use some up sizing for sure. 7 hours ago, peedeejay said: Very cool!
