Who do we expect the villain to be? My guess is Harley, given the pattern, and the fact that Catwoman or Two-Face would actually be good choices! 2019: Joker and Harley, Riddler 2020: Penguin 2021: Joker 2022: Harley 2023: Joker

Penguin has a show coming out. Joker and Harley are both gonna be in a movie. Riddler was just in a movie. So that leaves Mr Freeze as the choice that makes the least amount of sense, since Lego doesn’t seem to like sticking Catwoman or Two Face in sets as much as those other ones.

Maybe, but Matt Reeves has expressed interest in adapting Mr. Freeze, so he could potentially appear in The Batman 2; LEGO may just go with Harley again since she fits the alternating pattern from the past three years. Quote In my view, I just feel drawn to finding the grounded version of everything. So to me it would be a challenge in an interesting way to try and figure out how that could happen, even the idea of something like Mr. Freeze, that such a great story, right? I think there's actually a grounded version of that story, which could be really powerful and could be really great. So, I love the fantastical side of Batman, but this iteration, obviously, while being, to me, I think it is very comics faithful, but I don't think that this one is necessarily, it doesn't lean as hard into the fantastical, I guess. But I think to me what would be interesting would be to try and unwind the fantastical and see, well, how could that make sense here? And so that's kind of my view, how I see it.

spiderfan2000 Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 After seeing the movie, I'm now more bummed out at the lack of a Blue Beetle set. At least I already have the 2016 minifigure.
Legocentrico Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 New DC sets are announced on insta. I wish I was excited, but I'm scared it will be buildable things or Batman-Joker playsets :-/
Classic_Spaceman Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) DC 2024: - 76270 - 76271 - 76272 - 76273 - 76274 Prices, release dates, and names are currently unknown, but one of these will be the Gotham City D2C (Gotham skyline, I suppose?). Edited August 18, 2023 by Classic_Spaceman

Also, one of these is probably a 4+ set (Batman vs. Harley?), so we are probably only going to get two normal sets at most. 😕 Do we dare hope for some Nolanverse sets? 🤔 Edited August 18, 2023 by Classic_Spaceman
BrickBob Studpants Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 A 1HY wave? For DC?! What‘s going on Look at all those potential Jokers, Harleys, and Batsys, I can already smell them

Set in the survey was called Gotham City so yes it’s the survey one
Jason Todd is my God Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) Hello everyone, Awesome to see a survey leak set finally appearing else where, gives me hope for others!! ( Zelda mostly) But, as one might guess from my username, DC is definitely my jam, glad to have a wave that surely can't just be batsy and mista j, hopefully we'll even see some new faces! -J.T.i.m.G Edited August 18, 2023 by Jason Todd is my God
DaredevilFan Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 If the sets will be all Batman, I hope they’re based on the animated series. Would be really nice to have those mini figure variations. If this year was Michael Keaton. I’m optimistic we’d see an animated series Batmobile, batwing and batcave to tie in with skyline. But there’s a high chance it’ll buildable figs and 4+ sets
psqidexslizer Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 Five Batman vs Joker sets this year? DC fans are eating good! 😝 Seriously though, great to see we’re still actually getting something. Would be great to see some new characters, maybe even Mad Hatter, or at least some BtAS designs to coincide with the Gotham City skyline.
psqidexslizer Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 Just a thought. Could these sets tie into Batman: Caped Crusader?

Probably not; the show was initially scrapped pre-release by WB, before being bought by Amazon. While it supposedly will air sometime late this year, no official information (characters, designs, plot details, cast) has been released yet. 1 hour ago, DaredevilFan said: If the sets will be all Batman, I hope they’re based on the animated series. While we do not have confirmation that all of the sets will be Batman-related (aside from the D2C, obviously), that is a very safe guess based on LEGO’s prior releases!
HatBricks Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 Really excited we might actually get the Gotham City Skyline set. If we're limited to just Batman sets, at least we'll get a BTAS one
Agent Kallus Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 I just hope the BtAS minifig designs are something like @Robert8's designs!

I can exclusively confirm the contents of these sets: 76270: Batplane: Harley's escape ($29.99): A juniors batplane and small prision cell for Harley to break out of. Figures are batman (summer 2023 system fig) and Harley Quinn (Same face and hair as 2022, but an orange jumpsuit) 76271: Joker construction figure ($34.99): A Joker construction figure. The face is horrifying, but not in the intended way. Has a purple suit and a cartoonish pistol that can fire a "bang" flag. 76272: Harley Quinn construction figure ($34.99): A harley quinn construction figure with a red and black jumpsuit and a large hammer build. 76273: Batarang and Batman's gauntlet ($69.99): Batman's arm and hand from the Nolan trilogy with the spikes, holding a batarang build. 76274 Batman: Gotham Skyline has unfortunately been cancelled due to lego finding the usage of actual guns in BTAS controversial.
