Batman built with Lego
It looks like one of my favorite childhood toys was put to clever use in building a Batman and rogues' gallery shaped figures:
With the Batman license from Warner Bros. secured, Lego between April and August will offer six buildable Batman sets loaded with the Dark Knight's most formidable villains. The best include a version of the Batcave (1,071 pieces, $89.99) that includes minifigures of Batman, Robin, Alfred, the Penguin and Mr. Freeze to interact within a two-level control center featuring a costume transformation chamber and prison cell.And sadly, the Wash. Times doesn't put pictures on pages like these, or I'd be able to see just how cool it looks! Nuts. Guess I'd better go to the toy store and see if they have it there.
Also, Batwing: The Joker's Aerial Assault (523 pieces, $49.99) offers the Clown Prince of Crime and a henchman in his hidden-weapons-loaded helicopter challenging Batman in his sleek rocket-equipped aircraft.
