LEGO DC Batman Gotham City Skyline Coming!

Yesterday, the LEGO Group, in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products and DC, unveiled the #76271 LEGO DC Batman Gotham City Skyline set, an amazing recreation of Gotham City as it appears in “Batman: The Animated Series.” This atmospheric set, a 3D recreation of the Gotham City skyline in LEGO bricks, is getting released as Warner Bros. Discovery celebrates 85 years of Batman throughout 2024.

The over 4,200-piece set is a Batman fan’s dream as every tower and building meticulously recreates iconic locations from Warner Bros. Animation’s “Batman: The Animated Series” including the Gotham City Court and Arkham Asylum. The set is also full of Easter eggs and beloved characters including Catwoman, The Joker, Harley Quinn, and Batman himself. In addition, parts of the set open up to reveal more intricacies inside. The perfect set for DC fans, the Gotham City Skyline set is a stunning display piece that can be wall-mounted or placed on a shelf.

The backdrop for Gotham City measures over 30 in. (76 cm) wide. It incorporates 15 panels that can be removed to reveal the inside of Wayne Manor, the Batcave, and Arkham Asylum, and the activities of numerous villains from Batman: The Animated Series. The completed set includes 4,210 pieces and 2 sticker sheets and measures over 16 in. (41 cm) high, 30 in. (76 cm) wide, and 2.5 in. (6 cm) deep.

The set also includes a removable mini Batmobile and Batwing, as well as a Bat Signal. The assembled model can be mounted on a wall or stood on a surface using a flip-out stand.

The two sets of included building instructions allow two people to work on the model simultaneously. For added convenience, a digital version of the set’s building instructions can be found on the LEGO Builder app.

The #76271 LEGO DC Batman Gotham City Skyline set is going to be available for LEGO Insiders from the 1st of April and at LEGO Stores for all from the 4th of April.

A couple of years ago, LEGO ran a pilot program to test an online version of the Minifigure Factory that’s normally available at official LEGO stores. The Minifigure Factory allows you to personalize and order your own LEGO minifigure. After a long hiatus, the program is now back online, and according to the FAQ section, it will now stay open and will also get regular updates.

At the Minifigure Factory website, you can choose from a variety of minifigure heads, headwear, torsos, legs, and accessories, and also create a custom torso design (front and back) for your minifigure by using images, colors, and text. There is a limit of one minifigure per household at this time for the price of $11.99.

Minifigure Factory orders are sent with the same costs and delivery time as normal Online LEGO Shop orders. If you ordered a LEGO set alongside your minifigure, you should receive both together. To order your own custom minifig, visit the Minifigure Factory at the Online LEGO Shop.

I mentioned previously that during the pilot period, I was able to recreate theBrickBlogger.com logo reasonably accurately, placed an order, and received my minifig in a couple of weeks. I was very impressed by the turnaround time, the crispness of the custom design, as well as the packaging. I still have this minifigure and greatly treasure it.

So, if you want to create your own minifigure, head over to the Minifigure Factory at the Online LEGO Shop, and start designing!

What do you think? Are you planning to order your own custom LEGO minifigure or have you done so already? Feel free to share in the comment section below!
