1989 Batmobile™

Batman™ fans and anyone who appreciates cool cars will love the LEGO® DC Batman 76139 1989 Batmobile™ model car kit for adults. This beautifully detailed LEGO brick building toy replicates the classic curves of the famous Batmobile car, as seen in the 1989 Batman movie. Measuring over 60cm long and built from 3,306 pieces, the model offers a challenging and rewarding build. Die-hard fans will love authentic features such as the slide-open cockpit with a new-for-November-2019 wraparound windshield element, 2 hidden machine guns with a pop-up function activated by turning the turbine exhaust, and decorative grappling hooks on each side of the vehicle. The Batman toy car comes with a rotating display stand (with an attached information plate with 1989 Batmobile™ statistics) for ease of viewing from any angle. A must-have for all Batman fans, this super-hero toy construction set also includes 3 new-for-November-2019 minifigures—Batman with a cape that matches his 1989 movie outfit, The Joker™ and Vicki Vale™—plus a brick-built minifigure display stand.

Lego Batmobile

" After debating about this for a long time, I decided to go for it as I have the Tumbler and wanted this as a companion to that.

Used some of my points for a £20 discount :D

I have been steadily building over 4 days, pacing myself to do about 6 bags a day. There are 24 bags in the kit. Now this kit is big, whilst the Tumbler is chunky this is long, about 23" in length. You see that written but you dont appreciate it.

This is a brilliant set, every few bags sees you progressing the build with that iconic Batmobile style becoming apparent. Some of the intricacies and engineering is amazing. I would really love to see a behind the scenes on how they designed this and made it all work.

Over all, is it worth £220, I doubt it, but all lego is very expensive. This is the second most expensive set I have bought (after the Ghostbusters Firehouse). Replay, as with most large scale Lego sets is unlikely. It will just sit on display from now on so this is where the value falls down. You could play with it but there are a number of panels and sections that are held in place with one clip or a few studs that will come apart easily. However as there are limited other sets at this scale it isnt really a 'play' item.

For me this was bought to sit with the Tumbler and look amazing and it achieves that. "
