LEGO Ideas Batmobile Challenge!

It’s fast. It sparks fear in every villain. And it most definitely comes in black. Build the absolute Batman ride in the LEGO Ideas Batmobile Challenge!

Imagine: the iconic Bat-Signal flashing across the Gotham City sky, and you hear a growing engine rumble nearing in the distance. If you’re a bad guy – you’re diving into an alley – but anyone else? You’re looking out for the arrival of The Batman! But how will he appear – and what will he be driving? The fearsome Tumbler or the slick 1960s Batmobile? Or perhaps… something never seen before that is waiting to be built!

LEGO BATMOBILE CHALLENGE – YOUR MISSION

That’s right: Bruce Wayne – er, Batman – is looking for his next ride and challenging YOU to design it! He has only one requirement: it must pay homage to more than 80 years of Batman lore and arguably the most iconic fantasy vehicle ever – and oh yeah, it must be built using only LEGO bricks.

BUILD THE NEXT VEHICLE IN THE BATMOBILE LEGACY

In celebration of the upcoming LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight video game and in honor of the 20th anniversary of LEGO DC Batman, the LEGO Ideas team invites you inside the Batcave. As the Batmobile evolved through the decades, with each version reflecting that era’s unique identity, one aspect remains true: this vehicle represents the pinnacle of crime-fighting machinery.

Grab every black brick in your armory – alternative hues, including, of course, very, very dark grey, are also welcome if you are low on the Caped Crusader’s signature shade – and build your take on the next Batmobile.

Will you fill it with gadgets that impress even Lucious Fox?
Will you focus on flair and make Commissioner Gordon jealous?
Or make it so frightening that even Alfred will consider adding extra locks to Wayne Manor?

You decide! It’s your choice. Your build. Your celebration of the Batmobile Legacy. Deadline May 13th. Details here.

LEGO BATMOBILE CHALLENGE – PRIZES

Bruce Wayne is known for being generous, and the reward for this challenge is nothing short of that. If you are selected by his trusted Review Board as one of the 5 grand prize selections, you will receive a digital code for the Deluxe Edition of LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight on the gaming platform of your choice. You will also have your Batmobile showcased in the game, together with the four other selections, on a custom-made billboard placed in Gotham City. In addition, you’ll also receive these four LEGO DC Batman sets that each have a direct connection to the new game: the #76330 LEGO DC Batman: Batman Logo, the #76331 LEGO DC Batman: Batman v Superman Batmobile, the #76332 LEGO DC Batman: The Batman Batmobile, and #76333 LEGO DC Batman: Batman & Robin Batmobile.

LEGO Houses and Restaurants of the World Series

LEGO has been releasing a series of fantastic, smaller promotional sets under the LEGO Houses of the World and LEGO Restaurants of the World collections.

The LEGO Houses of the World collection was released in 2023 and included four sets featuring highly detailed mini buildings. The four sets in the series were the #40583 LEGO Houses of the World 1 (South American architecture), #40590 LEGO Houses of the World 2 (North African architecture), the #40594 LEGO Houses of the World 3 (Swiss architecture), and #40599 LEGO Houses of the World 4 (Chinese architecture). Although the sets were not minifigure-scale, they made a nice miniature street scene. Although these sets are no longer available from LEGO directly, you can still find them on the secondary market, like eBay, BrickLink, etc.

This year, LEGO launched a new series featuring restaurants from around the world. So far, two sets have been released: the #40906 LEGO Restaurants of the World: Japan, a promotional item in February, and the #40907 LEGO Restaurants of the World: Mexico, a promotional item available until the end of this week with purchases of $180 or more at the Online LEGO Shop.

Both sets released so far are colorful, delightful, and minifigure scale! Which means you can add them to your LEGO City displays, or just collect them on their own. They are full of interesting parts, unique stickers, and other nice details, plus a minifigure. We could expect that there will be more sets in this series, so this is a good time to start to collect them now, before prices on the secondary market go up.

Again, the second set in the series #40907 LEGO Restaurants of the World: Mexico, is currently available on purchases of $180 or more at the Online LEGO Shop.

What do you think? Do you collect small but highly detailed promotional sets like these? What other locations would you like to see in the series? Feel free to share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below!
