Ahead of The Flash premiere, which will hail the return of Michael Keaton as Batman alongside Ben Affleck’s DCEU iteration of the Caped Crusader, LEGO has decided to mark the occasion with an incredibly detailed Batman Returns Batcave set.
As the closest many of us will ever come to actually “owning” Bruce Wayne’s life, this 3,981-piece collector’s item is partially based on the 1992 Tim Burton film of the same name. And it’s designed to function as both a conventional toy and as a display to be admired from up close/afar.
In its space-saving “shadowbox” form, the LEGO Batman Returns set resembles a streamlined black prism with a window in the shape of the Bat symbol offering a preview of what’s inside.

When unpacked to its fullest extent, you’re dealing with quite a faithful recreation of Batman’s headquarters from film canon; featuring a surveillance station, gadgets, vaults, chains, drawbridge, and even the Keaton-era Batmobile – complete with pop-up machine guns and all.
Minifigures you can expect to inhabit the bricked Batcave range from Bruce Wayne / Batman himself Alfred Pennyworth, Max Shreck, Catwoman, plus The Penguin.
The LEGO Batman Returns Batcave set is scheduled to hit shelves on June 8th, and will retail for $399.99 / £344.99/  € 399.99 (AUD pricing to be confirmed) – find out more below.
