The Lego Company is expanding its Batman lineup with three new sets scheduled for release in early 2027. The upcoming collection features two distinct Batmobile models and a decorative piece centered on the Joker.
Batman Returns Batmobile & Duck Set
The first set, "Batman Returns Batmobile & Duck," recreates the iconic Batmobile from the 1992 film alongside the Penguin's duck-shaped vehicle. This Batmobile can transform into its Batmissile mode. While a Lego version of the Batman Returns Batmobile has been released previously, this iteration is more accessible than the larger, collector-focused edition. It includes 672 pieces and is priced at $59.99.
Arkham Batman Batmobile
A second Batmobile set, the "Arkham Batman Batmobile," draws inspiration from the vehicle featured in the 2015 video game Batman: Arkham Knight. This Batmobile features a tank-like design with functional suspension and comes with a Batman minifigure. This set consists of 317 pieces and will retail for $29.99.
The Joker Wall Art Comic Cover
The third announced set is "The Joker Wall Art Comic Cover," a buildable mural inspired by the cover of Detective Comics #880. This set is described as 3D wall art, with elements that extend beyond the picture frame. It is the most complex of the three, containing 1,849 pieces and priced at $169.99.
All three sets are slated for release on January 1, 2027. This follows the launch of Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, an open-world video game released on May 22, which has received critical acclaim for its scope and similarities to the Arkham series. Lego and Batman have a long history, with some older Lego Batman sets from 2008 now fetching significantly higher prices on the secondary market than their original retail cost.
