Who wants to look at the Arkham comic when....

[Athos]

Lookin' mighty interesting.

Looks nice. It isn't as big as I thought it would be, but that can be fixed by buying two and modifying them.

Those gaurds must be idiots. They are so absorbed with putting Riddler in their slightly modifyed police van that

they don't notice Scarecrow and Poisen Ivy escaping. What morons. :-P

[Vader]

Hmmm the bigger picture does make this set look better than i first thought which is good, though its not what i expected there are a few things that i really like about this set.

Firstly the little scarecrow statue, this looks so good yet its also so simple and fits in very well.

Secondly i now notice the little tiles that are placed on the top of the cells, these seem to have a lock print on them which is again a nice touch, this is the first time ive ever seen these tiles before are they new??

One thing that puzzles me is weather or not the scarecrow cell is the same sort of shape as the riddlers and ivys, i take it that its situated somewhere at the back of the main building.

Vader,

to answer your question, those printed locks tile 1x1 are not new, they were on several Harry Potter sets (including the magnificent Graveyard 8-

I'm not a LEGO Batman fan, but I certenly buy it to make a good addition to my town, a good old manor. It makes me thinking of a thing; does a Wayne manor will be released?

[xwingyoda]

To continue on this interesting off topic question ( :-P ), I doubt it, even though it would be fantastic ;-)

Imagine a real stoned classic manor, a black limousine, and some non costumed women characters like Viky vale and Selina Kyle *wub*

Would be great for collectors but I doubt of the playability of the set (maybe a hidden garage door with a smaller batmobile coming out ;-) or something like that ?

*yoda*

The answer to your question is unfortunately no. or atleast not no such information or rumors have floated the net.

I personally hope that they will release a Wayne Manor, and think that many other wishes so too.

[Vader]

I agree with Christian here im afraid, if lego were to release such a set i would expect the sells number to be very poor its a shame as i would like one though.

Yoda your Obsession with the lego ladies continues to amuse me X-D :-P

Indeed it will be with customs aplenty :-D

[sam89]

Vader, I'm actually pretty sure that the Scarecrow's cell is above Poison Ivy's. That's why the statue is attached to the side of it.

[xwingyoda]

Think so Sam ?? So why are there bars all over the "main" building ?? For future villains 8-

[sam89]

From the description on legionsofgotham a while back, those are "safety bars", so no one can just break through the door.

[DoubleT]

Is it just me, or is Lego starting to use computer animated pictures for boxes???

And i hope that all will have a chance to buy it.. not just the americans...

[xwingyoda]

Indeed TT, now the box art are all CGIs 8-

[DoubleT]

I hope your right yoda.....

And the figs dont look completely like figs on the box, but ill survive he he

I finally saw the box art. I think this set will be very popular. We have joker, two-face, cat-woman, penguin, freezer all without cells. The true fans of batman will probably get 2 or even 3 sets to make enough cells for all of them. Even non-batman fans will buy the set. It has 7 minifigs and gothic looking buildings. You can't have a lot of play pretend with a batcave (since when do most batman battle happens in the batcave?), but you can have lots of play pretend with this set (if you don't want the asylum setting you can assume they were in the city and batman is hunting them). well, that's what i think anyway. *sad*

Actually the main building contains 3 extra cells where you can put the villians from the other sets.

This information comes from this thread.

[Scnicker]

That looks good! Although I'm not sure if I'll pick it up or not, I think it's a huge improvement over the Bat Cave. And you can never have enough of those oval windows *skull*

[General Grievous]

This set looks awesome but you know what would have made a whole lot better? A Hugo Strange minifig :-)

[Evil Willy]

Oh my thanks soo much! This is awsome for pieces(Just like everyone pointed out) Very glad to see a nice set. Only one I want from Batman line. And more muskets! Yes...This is a sign, more pirates to come lol jk ;) Heh but who knows? Thanks reideen

[gusmoore17]

WOW!!!

The first impressions are that Arkham Asylum is just a mess of modular castle-harrypotter like sets, but then, everything makes sense...

Poison Ivy's and Scarecrow's cells are together in the same building and then you have other two in which of course one must be Riddle's and then...well, it looks like playability simply won't stop in this set!

Then we have the building's design, which is I think EXCELLENT, it's like having KK2 and HP sets together in a wild mix called Batman... I won't say that I didn't wanted a more Tim-Burton-like design, but the final results are amazing. The castle-like buildings and the "modern" entrance are great!!!

The minifigs are also a great and a most-have addition to this set, as it is the transport included.

The only thing that disapoints me is Batman's Glider....what's that?? and Shadow's bike, well, at least is black.

Conclusion: a most have set!!! :-)
