LEGO Announces New Batman: The Animated Series Gotham City Set 

Gotham awaits as Batman: The Animated Series is coming to brick form as LEGO debuts a new backdrop styled Gotham City set

Gotham City needs its protector, and LEGO is here to help DC fans build it as they step into the world of the hit series Batman: The Animated Series. Coming in at a whopping 4,210 pieces and at 30" long and 16" tall, the backdrop of Gotham comes to life. This massive piece of brick-art puts fans righting to the streets of Gotham in all of its glory from Batman: The Animated Series. There are 15 panels that can also be removed to reveal some of Batman's secrets from around the city. Some of these secrets are with Wayne Manor, peeking into the Batcave, the chaos hidden inside Arkham Asylum, and much more. 

Plenty of other surprises are packed into this set along with four Batman LEGO minifigures featuring the animated versions of the Dark Knight himself, along with Catwoman, Joker, and Harley Quinn. LEGO was even kind enough to include two separate instruction books for two builders to take on this project together. The LEGO Batman: The Animated Series Gotham City set is expected to release on April 4th for $299.99. Pre-orders are not live just yet, but fans can see the set's product page right on the LEGO Store.
