Durability: Fun: Educational: ...and the result is quite worth the price. After a botched attempt by Art Asylum to provide Batbricks to the masses, the LEGO folks, in their infinite wisdom of all things building-blocky, quickly snapped up one of the crown jewels of action-toy licenses. The first wave should fulfill expectations neatly: the Batboat, the Batplane, a neat little Batdragster, and of course, the featured set on this page, the Batmobile. This set, in fact, features two vehicles - the Batmobile, which bears a slight resemblance to its 1989 film incarnation, and a two-tone customized armored car - and three figures - Batman in a black suit reminiscent of Michael Keaton's time under the mask, a Bruce Timm-inspired Two-Face complete with a two-tone and two-style hairpiece(!), and a henchman in a two-tone shirt. There's also a crossing gate meant for the two vehicles to smash through in pursuit, though most of the kids likely to take an interest in this set will probably chuck that thing first chance they get. Now for those adults out there who will likely be involved in the task of assembling this set, some patience is recommended. The instruction book takes its sweet time getting to the piece de resistance, but then this is probably meant to provide a build-up or 'prep time' for the whole enchilada. Also it's probably a good idea for your young ones to exercise a bit of caution on the Batmobile's forward-mounted missile launcher - even with a big round soft-rubber tip, that little bugger can travel at quite a clip. Of course, being something of a comic-book junkie myself, the best part of this set is the options, or 'alternate models', depicted in the last few pages of the book, as one of the variations of the Batmobile depicted bears a pretty close resemblance to the Batmobile as it appears in the comics at the time of this writing. It's a shame LEGO doesn't print the instructions for this alternate models as well, but methinks that might make the set a bit too pricey for what you're getting - although it does offer images of the other sets in LEGO's Batman collection, including a preview of the forthcoming Batcave set which comes with figures of Robin, Alfred, The Penguin and Mr. Freeze. For my money, The Batmobile: Two-Face's Escape is worth it. Granted, its durability can be as tenuous as any other LEGO set of similar complexity, but it's guaranteed that I'll have to check out some of the other Batsets. And if your kid is LEGO junkie - or you yourself are, like me - odds are you'll find this set appealing enough to give the others a chance. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
