- The next LEGO DC Batman set is official: Arkham Asylum
- The set of 2,953 pieces was unveiled in San Diego Comic Con
- It is a three -level set and is delivered with 16 figurines
Yes, it is the day before San Diego Comic Con 2025, and Lego does not waste time inaugurating new sets – and Techradar exclusively shows one of the most exciting additions to the Lego Batman theme of recent memory.
The Lego DC Batmobile has long been impressive, but the brand new LEGO DC Batman Arkham Asylum set is an imposing construction with lots of figurines – 16 to be exact.
The set is built from 2,953 rooms and is designed as a display part which measures 12.5 inches high and almost 10 inches deep. It will meet as a two -story building plus a roof, and the asylum can be separated to customize the look. I have the feeling that collectors and fans who opt for this set will do a lot to organize the figurines inside.
There are a lot of cells to house Harley Quinn, Bane or the Joker, but there is also the outer shell of the building, with a red brick and many details. In fact, LEGO designers send this set with 65 stickers – it’s a lot of personalized options. There is even the connection in cement and other details drawn directly from the Batman universe and the wider DC brand.
Of course, Arkham Asylum would not be complete without a delivery van for the transport of prisoners, which is also included, as well as various accessories for figurines.
Also decompose the figurines here. There are 16 in total, including Batman, Batwoman, Batwing, Robin, M. Freeze, The Riddler, Poison Ivy, Catwoman, Scarecrow, Harley Quinn, Bane, The Joker, The Penguin, Killer Croc and two security guards.
In addition, and somewhat rare for LEGO sets, you will get transparent elements to help pose characters, including the possibility of bringing Batman from the roof or perched.
You can see a full gallery of photos of the DC Batman Arkham Asylum DC from Lego below, and it will be launched before the holiday season on September 12 for $ 299.99 / £ 269.99 (Australian Price TBC). If you are a member of LEGO Insiders – the brand’s free reward program – you can order the set early on September 9.
Since it is built from nearly 3,000 rooms and launches before the holidays, Lego also suggests that this could be used as a Batman Advent calendar. How? Well, you would build part of each day for 24 days, because it comes with this number of bags to compensate for the building instructions book.
