You can’t let him in the batcave!
" Awesome!
Cons:
I don’t know where to put this set, it’s pretty big.
I don’t know how to get around it but it also looks kind of silly that it’s just pathways and a computer in the middle of nowhere.
Pros:
There are many moving parts, you can spin a series of costumes, rotate Bruce into his Batsuit and stuff like that.
Not just a batcave, but includes Penguins boat and the Batboat.
Four minifigures, plus three extra bat costumes (essentially mini-figures without faces), and two penguins. I love the different Batsuits and I love
Minifigures.
A longer build, took me three hours but I was also very distracted by the TV.
Overall:
This is a great set, the most expensive I’ve bought so far but definitely worth the money. Why would you even collect Batman if you don’t want the Batcave?

Not a Joker
" I was excited for this set, the balloon escape is a great scene in the movie.
Cons:
The balloons don’t want to stay on very well, at least not while playing with the joker.
Pros:
Batman and the Joker at a very affordable cost. Would be a great start for a new collector.
The bombs blow up the tank and it works pretty well.
Overall:
This is a basic set, a great started or addition to a collection.

Clayface the facts
" This is the set I least wanted but I’ve been pleasantly surprised.
Cons:
45$ for two minifigures and a bag of brown bricks. This is a simple set and probably a little overpriced.
Pros:
This set is actually fun to play with, Clayface is somewhat mobile and very solid.
You can swap out one of his cannon arms for a hammer arm, which is pretty neat.
Overall:
I wasn’t going to buy this set, but I found it for $20 on clearance and I am a conpletionist so I cracked. I’d value it at closer to $35 then $45 but I am happy with the set. Clayface looks awesome lined up with our other villains.

Storm on
" An easy build
Cons:
The transport is pretty lame, I don't recognise it but I don't watch much other than the Star Wars movies. The bottom is basically just a black rectangle, I feel like more could have been done here.
I don't like the bulky guns that shoot the little round 1x1 pieces, but that's just my preference. I prefer the smaller, more realistic looking guns.
Pros:
4 minifigures for $15 is a great value, though you are looking at acquiring storm troopers that also come in a lot of other sets.
Overall:
If you want to build an army, or are just starting your sets this is a great value.

A bounty of Bounty Hunters
" An easy build
Cons:
The speeder bike is pretty lame, I don't remember ever having seen it before, but I don't go much beyond the movies as a Star Wars fan.
I don't like the bulky guns that shoot little 1X1 round plastic things, I prefer the smaller, more realistic looking weapons, but that's just my preference
Pros:
4 Bounty Hunters for $15 and you still get a vehicle (even if it's lame)
Overall:
If you are looking for minifigures, especially Star Wars Bounty Hunters, this is a great set. You really can't go wrong with any set that involves some kind of a build and 4 figures for $15.

Why does everyone want to go back to Jakku?
" Only my second Star Wars build, after Rey’s Speeder a while back but I really enjoyed it.
Cons:
The colour scheme is pretty boring, but it’s accurate so can you really complain?
A bit of a repetitive build because all of the four engine things are pretty similar.
Pros:
5 Mini-figures, I’m all about minifigures. You are too. Don’t lie.
It’s a bit more of a challenging build then a I am use to and I enjoyed it. So far I’ve mostly been building Lego Batman movie sets so I don’t know how it compares to other Star Wars builds.
The top two boosters shoot off and that is pretty fun. I have no idea what the purpose is, but it’s fun to do.
Overall:
For one of my first Star Wars build I really enjoyed myself. My kids think it’s pretty cool and that’s all I can really ask for.

Beach Party
" This is a play set, not a build.
Cons:
Some people might be frustarted that this set doesn't have much to build.
Pros:
15 minifigures for $50 is a good deal, slightly over $3 a figure.
There are a variety of minifigures. My daughter found a "grandpa", a "grandma" and some shorter minifigures that are "kids". This was an exciting discovery.
Overall:
If your kids are always fighting over minifigures this set comes with a bunch and they all have beach themed accessories which is fun. If you want some minifigures to play with this is a great set.

A Scare-Crow that flies
" Great value for the money!
Cons:
This is a simple set.
Batman's jet-pack flames shoot further down then his feet making it difficult for him to stand unless you aim them to the sides and that doesn't make a ton of sense.
Pros:
Cost effective set.
The little machine explodes and it actually works well. that's very cool.
Batman has a jet-pack! Instead of being the same caped batman found in most of the Lego Batman Movie sets this one comes with a jetpack.
Overall:
This is a cost effective-buy that comes with two mini-figures, a little helicopter, and some sort of mechanical machine that blows up.

Mr. Freeze, not the coolest
" While far cooler than Arnold's Mr. Freeze, definately not my favourite set.
Cons:
This is a simple set, with a wall from some sort of cellar, mechanical room that on its own just looks out of place.
The Mr. Freeze mech suit doesn't want to stay together or stay upright easily.
Pros:
This is one of the cheaper sets in the Lego Batman Movie collection.
There is an ice-block you can stick a mini-figure in and my kids think that is pretty cool.
3 Mini-figures is a good value
Over-all:
The set is an easy build and it comes with three mini-figures. A decent set but I wouldn't recommend it as the first set for someone starting a new collection.

Riddle me this...
" Kind of a lame build but great minifigures.
Cons:
The Riddler Raced itself is pretty simple and rather small.
Magpie has one of those weird blocks they use sometimes as a cloke or dress instead of legs. I strongly dislike those block bottoms on characters, there has to be a better way.
Pros:
5 minifigures, Batman and 4 unique villains. Kite-Man's kite is super cool. Calendar Man's cape is also very cool.
The Riddler Racer, while small and simple, is a tight build that stays together well during play.
Overall: This set is a great way to accumulate some unique villains, a great add on to a Batman Lego Movie collection but it wouldn't be my choice if I was starting a new collection. "
