To The Lego Batmobile!


Batman in Lego was too sweet to pass up, so as sure as chicks dig the car, I got the Batmobile: Two Face's Escape set. Shot a time-lapse video of me building the set:

The designer's love for batman is evident in the details: a fabric(!) cape packed separately in a cardboard sleeve to prevent it from being crushed by the bricks, and a launchable rocket out of the car's nose that will send two-face flying if it hits the back of his getaway truck. A very nice, if expensive set at around $74. I got mine with a reservation from Simply Toys at Suntec.

The Batman Lego series was unavailable locally due to some licensing issues, but I saw them in stock today, and also the very hot Jabba's Sail Barge at Brickworld at Marina Square, The Sales Assistant said that the licensing have apparently been sorted out and they've managed to get a limited batch from Lego Singapore. Get them while they're still available! Also listen to a interesting chat between a Lego PR Rep and the guys at Fanboy Radio about the Lego community.

Edit 10 Sep 06: Redid the video with titles, soundtrack and credits using Windows Movie Maker.
