A picture of the Schumacher Batcave was posted by a reliable source, if my memories serves me correctly. Also, the Schumacher films are no older than the Keaton films, which we have gotten sets for.

The Batcave is 100€, so it's still at a higher price point. I think kids won't care anyway, it's not like they're more connected to, say, Nolan's trilogy (if anything, Schumacher has more wacky and colorful designs). As for the rumour—no one's outright said it or confirmed it, but it has been unsubtly teased by at least two leakers. Quote

"Guys, Quicksilver is finally returning as a minifigure!" "Mr. Negative has been teased, wonder if it means a Marvel's Spider-Man set is coming..." DC fans today: "Phew, our only 2025 hasn't been delayed / cancelled. What a great day to be alive!" The struggle is real for DC fans! Quote
BatDeanj Posted January 17 Posted January 17 Do you think as Arkham (and maybe the Batcave) is the only thing left this year Lego has a bigger budget to put in that set? or is that not how it works. Quote

If DC was its own entirely separate theme, that‘s how it would work. However, they share a budget with Marvel, so the number of Marvel sets as well as the new parts, prints, and recoloured pieces in them affect the DC budget too Quote

I'll probably take heat for this, but Batman Forever is probably as close to a comic book Batman movie as there is. Or at least it tracks as closely to the comics of its time. Agree that it's probably the one where kids would least likely associate it with a specific movie. Quote

The merger stopped that happening Timelines don't sync up so it's not but it'd be funny if this set, like the shadow box before it, was a loose tie in to a planned project that this time was pulled after they'd developed it Quote

I honestly like this movie, especially Val Kilmer's Batman. I love my Batman being wacky instead of all broody and serious. Quote

It's got its plusses (like you said, Kilmer just being a normal dude), and its minuses (Tommy Lee Jones, what is you doing baby?) Quote

There are different flavours to Batman in various media, so there‘s nothing wrong with a more campy film version! To be honest, I even like B&R It‘s stupid as all hell, but a guilty pleasure of mine Quote

An Arnold Freeze, Uma Ivy and Green Bane would be great. Freeze's stupid Tank would be a fun set. ( Unlikely though considering it's not a batvehicle!). Quote
Lego Nostalgia Posted January 17 Posted January 17 I'll just pretend Batman & Robin is a live action Forestfire101 stop motion, a funny parody If The Batcave has a good computer, a turn table, a Batmobile,Nipples and a Bat Credit Card, might be a pick up for me, I still prefer dark and brooding Batman though Doubt we'd get brain-damaged Bane from that movie though Batman, Alfred from Shadow Box,Mr Freeze and Poison Ivy, Robin is not included as usual Quote

CloneCommando99 Posted January 18 Posted January 18 (edited) What if after seeing the success and hype from the Superman trailer Lego said “Arkham D2C, what a joke,” and replaces it with a Hall of Justice modular and all employees wear a superman costume in James Gunn’s honour?
