\u201cWhere does he get those wonderful toys?\u201d Well, in this case, from Lego<\/a>. The popular brand just announced a new set themed to 1992\u2019s Batman Returns<\/a>, directed by Tim Burton. On the surface, it\u2019s similar to the 2019 Batmobile from the original 1989 film<\/a>. Fewer pieces, but still very nice. Then you realize Lego went a step beyond with this one and, well, it\u2019s awesome.<\/p>\n

The brand-new, 2,269 piece Batmobile from Batman Returns debuts on September 4 (September 1 for Lego Insiders) with a price tag of $230. It\u2019s 17 inches long, 6.5 inches wide, 4 inches high, and comes with a Batman minifigure exclusive to this set. Most importantly, though, it can transform from the iconic Batmobile into the Batmissile, just like in the movie. Here are some images.<\/p>\n

As you can see from the pictures, there\u2019s a button in the back of the standard Batmobile that you press and, Poof! Batmissile.<\/p>\n

With Batman Returns, Tim Burton kind of began the tradition of every single Batman film having new vehicles. The first movie had the Batmobile, the Batmobile with shields, and the Batwing. Returns had the Batboat, plus the Batmobile turning into the Batmissile. That Lego somehow figured out how to pull that off in a way that doesn\u2019t completely destroy the set is kind of amazing. We\u2019re very curious just how easily it breaks apart and if it\u2019s difficult to snap back together again.<\/p>\n
