PGBQW Posted March 4, 2022 Posted March 4, 2022 Just seen the movie. I really don't know what else they could've made lego sets of? Quote
TurinTheGreat Posted March 4, 2022 Posted March 4, 2022 Best. Batman. Adaptation. Ever. I am speechless, this movie is phenomenal. Sorry Nolan but there is a new king in town! I will get the batcave soon, this is amazing. Quote

BrickBob Studpants Posted March 5, 2022 Posted March 5, 2022 Pretty amazed they released sets based on the film in the first place Some of stuff seen/heard/implied in it would usually mean an automatic disqualification Quote
THELEGOBATMAN Posted March 5, 2022 Posted March 5, 2022 It's not like LEGO would miss a movie based on the only DC superhero Quote

That's why I recently became a bigger fan of DC than Marvel, except for Sony's Spider-Verse series (the animated one; not Venom or Morbius ). MCU would never allow anything out of their already set boundaries. Their series' can push them further tho, and I have high hopes for Moon Knight and She-Hulk. Bit apart from those two projects, Love and Thunder and Deadpool, I really stopped caring anymore. And that's why it saddens me that we aren't getting any sets for DC. We've got six DC movies coming out this year, that's absolutely incredible, yet we'll be lucky if we get sets for two of them (The Batman included). Quote

Reveal hidden contents I mean, there’s an F bomb in the first fifteen minutes and Selina’s friend is an escort. Not to mention how the film overall felt more like a gritty crime/corruption thriller or murder mystery than a superhero film. I really enjoyed the film, especially the first 2/3s of it. My interest in 76183 has gone up now, especially because I thought that it cost $100 this whole time when it’s actually only $80. LEGO made NAZI minifigures. Sure they were just generic 'German solders from World War 2' but seriously they were browncoats. I just finished building 76183. Fun build. Too many stickers but looks nice. I wouldn't spend $80 on it. I got it for 40% off because of a bad box from eBay. Anything for less than $60 I highly recommend it. Quote

I gotta say, I'm surprised the batcave was "only" 80€ to begin with, one would think they'd go crazy for this kind of set. But yeah, 60€ is a way more reasonable price for what you get. I reccomend doing a bit of MOCing and combine it with any of the previous Batcaves to have a bigger one. Quote

It's a nice Batcave, I bought it to use as a train platform. But even at the discount I got it's not a very large set with a lot going on. I feel $80 is very overpriced. Quote

I think the Nolan films are still far superior to this one in terms of what it means to be the batman, and have a somewhat better plot, but that doesn't mean I didn't like the movie a ton. I think this is the best batman in terms of the suit, gadgets, and by god that car (I won't lie I clapped when the car was introduced, no one else was clapping it was really embarrassing). I don't own a single batman set, but I think I'm gonna have to pick up the 2022 batmobile, and then I might have to get the smaller tumbler for the Nolan films. Quote

TurinTheGreat Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 I expect 1 set for The Flash and Aquaman. The Batman opened big so we maybe this will help DC for 2023 sets lineup? Also, I wanted a UCS The Batman batmobile. One or two of these numbers has to be DC, right? August 76220 4+ | $10 | 43 pcs 76221 | $45 | 456 pcs September 76225 ($25) 76226 ($25) 76230 ($25) Quote

Likely a lot of the ‘23 lineup is set in some regard at this point, and if anything, this just confirms the appeal of more Batman sets, which are basically what they make now anyway. Quote

Yes but still not as many as they used to. They made like 7 Batman sets in 2019, last year it was 2 (excluding 4+ and D2C). January 2023 may be set in stone (they could shift some things around and design more sets for then). 2HY 2023 will truly show us if movies have an effect or not. Quote
JVM Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 This is my new favorite Batman film (although I'm deeply nostalgic for the two Burton films) but it's relevance to LEGO is pretty light... even if the film were a spectacular failure, there would still be more LEGO Batman, and unlike some other superhero films, it wasn't toyetic enough to leave open for additional sets much. It certainly gave me a taste for more though... looking forward to the Batcave set. (Already have the other two.) Dying a bit for some villain-based sets though. Quote
TurinTheGreat Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 Eh, I would like the Wayne Tower as a set And there is Arkham too, though that will probably appear in the sequels more. Gordon's car would be nice. Quote

Maybe we get one in 2023 or 2024? I would like to get the unseen prisoner with it. I am sure Lego will fast track it after the success of the film. Maybe future Batman sets will be inspired by The Batman, perhaps some from the Caped Crusader show which Matt Reeves is also working on. This film reignited my love for Batman. Quote

I don't come to this thread much and thus probably don't know as much as you all do, but I'd be shocked if we didn't get some variation of the Burton Batmobile to coincide with The Flash. 14 hours ago, Mandalorianknight said: I won't lie I clapped when the car was introduced, no one else was clapping it was really embarrassing Love this, also. It was awesome tbf. Quote
