Lego unveils big Batman Returns Batcave set that hits shelves June 5

The Lego Group’s latest Batman-themed set is the 3,981 piece “Batman Returns” Batcave Shadow Box. Rude.

Builders can painstakingly assemble a miniature replica of the Batcave, inspired by 1992’s Batman Returns, with working lights, multiple little movable bits like a hidden costume display and batarang cabinet, and a “feature rich” Batmobile that can be detached from the set. I’m fuming.

The set can be hinged closed to form a box measuring 20 inches wide and 11 inches tall. A cutout of the Batcave in the shape of the symbol for the bat is visible through the box. The “Batman Returns” Batcave Shadow Box will be made available for Lego VIPs starting June 5 at Lego’s site and LEGO Stores. It’ll be available for the general public starting June 8, priced at $449.99. The unmitigated gall.

Seven minifigures are also included in the set. Batman ReturnsI have also added brand-new figures of Catwoman, and Penguin. I’ll be replacing them with the complete set. The Lego Batman Movie minifigures, when the “Batman Returns” Batcave Shadow Box becomes available shortly after My actual Birthday. Thanks for reading.
