Batman Returns\u00a0is one of those\u00a0Batman\u00a0films you just can\u2019t hate. Part of the reason for that is the excellent rogues\u2019 gallery that director Tim Burton cooked up (and Max Shreck) for the film. Mostly, it has to do with Keaton himself and, more importantly, the film\u2019s timeless Batmobile. You know, the one getting a new Lego set.<\/p>\n

Batman Returns, again<\/p>\n

\"Lego<\/a><\/p>\n

No, not that one<\/a>.\u00a0This one.<\/a> Seven years later, Lego has returned to Burton\u2019s\u00a0Batman\u00a0universe to, again, celebrate the Dark Knight\u2019s iconic Batmobile. And, oddly enough, the Batmissile. The new set, which contains fewer pieces than its 2019 counterpart, is technically two builds in one, seeing as the sides detach to become the slicker getaway vehicle. Who are we kidding? You\u2019re just going to build the Batmobile and stick it on a shelf.<\/p>\n

It is quite the looker. Even with only 2,269 pieces (more than 1,000 fewer than the 2019 set), it\u2019ll still provide at least a couple of hours of fun. That also means it won\u2019t be cheap \u2014 with the set\u2019s US listing touting a $230 price. That comes to roughly R3,680 \u2014 which will likely be damn close to the official South African pricing at GYBC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Arguably even cooler than the Batmobile is the set\u2019s lone minifig \u2014 Batman himself. He\u2019s sporting the shoulder cape style that makes for one of the better live-action adaptations we\u2019ve seen, and easily the best in the Lego world. We could take or leave the little plaque reading Batman Returns\u00a0that\u2019s tied to the figure, though.<\/p>\n

The set is currently on track to release on 4 September this year in the States \u2014 three days earlier if you\u2019re a Lego Insider. It won\u2019t be here quite that soon, but Lego\u2019s official distributor rarely falls behind the times. Expect a full release sometime in September, with a price that closely matches the Dollar figure.<\/p>\n
