First look at LEGO Batman 76181 Batmobile: The Penguin Chase

The first reviews for the forthcoming LEGO Batman 76181 Batmobile: The Penguin Chase set are now online.

LEGO YouTuber Ashnflash has managed to get his hands on the recently-revealed LEGO Batman 76181 Batmobile: The Penguin Chase and takes an in-depth look at it. The review follows his coverage of LEGO Batman 76179 Batman & Selina Kyle Motorcycle Pursuit.

This is one of four new sets featured in the upcoming Matt Reeves interpretation of the Dark Knight Detective, due to hit movie screens in early 2022. Ashnflash picked up the 392 piece set from Walmart in Canada, where it’s already on shelves early.

76181 Batmobile: The Penguin Chase includes a new muscle car version of the Batmobile, complete with blue exhaust flames and forward-firing ‘missile launchers’, as well as minifigures of Robert Pattinson’s Batman and Colin Farrell’s Penguin.

“The building experience was great,” the YouTuber says. “This set is so much better than I thought it was from the pictures – I’m very impressed by it.

“It surpassed my expectations and I think the value of it is definitely there. I would have liked a third minifigure, but I really like these iconic Batmobiles that are to scale.”

76181 Batmobile: The Penguin Chase will launch on November 1 in the US for $29.99 and in the UK and Europe on January 1 for £24.99 / €29.99.
