Batman 1989 Batmobile Gets Massive Lego Set for Black Friday

LEGO has unveiled a new Batmobile set based on Tim Burton's 1989 Batman. The truly massive set is the largest Batmobile that the toy-maker has ever revealed and it's going to be here just in time for the holiday season. LEGO will release the 3,300 piece behemoth as part of its Black Friday 2019 product lineup on November 29. But fans of the Caped Crusader will have to shell out a pretty penny to get their hands on this latest set.
As revealed by LEGO, the 1989 Batmobile set will retail for $249.99. The set comes with 3,306 pieces. Amongst those pieces are some key accessories that fans of the movie will appreciate. Three minifigures, Batman, Vicki Vale and Joker, will be included. To hype up the release, LEGO revealed a promotional video that showcases many of the features and details that have been included in the highly-detailed set. The company provided the following description.
"This LEGO brick version of the 1989 Batmobile features a slide-open cockpit with a new-fo r-November-2019 wraparound windshield element, 2 minifigure seats, a steering wheel, stick shift and dashboard stickers, 2 hidden, non-shooting machine guns under the bonnet with a pop-up function activated by rotating the turbine exhaust, 2 decorative grappling hooks, wheel trims with the Bat logo
and specially designed tyres for the front wheels, batwings and other iconic design details."
Additionally, the set comes with a rotating display stand, that also comes with an information plate. As far as weapons go, Batman will come with his Batarang and Joker will have his gun. Batman will also have a movie-accurate cape and Vickie Vale will have a camera. Once it's built, the Batmobile measures 4 inches high, 23 inches long and 8 inches wide. And it will make a nice companion piece to the 80th Anniversary Lego Batcave.
While LEGO has traditionally been a toy line aimed at children, the company has increasingly entered the adult-focused collector and model building market. This is a prime example of something that is firmly aimed at the adult crowd, given the hefty price tag, as well as the skill level associated with assembling the set. That strategy has proved successful for LEGO as they've released a wide variety of collector's sets based on iconic franchises, which also extends to Marvel, Star Wars and Jurassic Park, amongst others.
Tim Burton's Batman proved to be a defining moment in the history of Batman movies, but all superhero movies. With Michael Keaton as the titular DC Comics hero and Jack Nicholson as Joker, the movie proved to be a smash success, bringing in $411 million worldwide, working from a relatively tiny $35 million budget. Burton and Keaton returned for the 1992 sequel, Batman Returns. While it was eleven years before X-Men hit theaters and more or less ushered in the modern era of comic book movies, the importance of Burton's Batman cannot be overstated. Those interested in getting their hands on this set when it hits shelves can head on over to LEGO.com.

Michelle Rose Exclusive Interview

  Q:  What's it like growing up in Mpls?   Does the city have interesting stories about Prince?     A:  I only lived in Minneapolis until I was three, but I have fond memories of it.  Even now that I live in a suburb of Minneapolis, I still feel like I'm a part of Minneapolis.  I think a lot of Minnesotans have "Minneapolis Pride", even if they don't live in Minneapolis.  Minneapolis has so many fun things to see and do, and the arts are very important here, with so many theaters and live shows.     Prince put us on the map for music.  I hear Prince stories everywhere I go in Minnesota.  I've met so many people who were associated with Prince, including one of his dancers, and even a former Paisley Park employee working as a cashier at the local grocery store, so I've heard many Prince stories.  I wish I could've been a Chanhassen resident when Prince was still alive, because I know that many Chanhassen residents saw him casually riding his bike around

  Den Edie Flyah interveiw So could you tell us a little bit about your upbringing in Ohio?  I was sent to guitar leasons by my parents when I was 10 years old. My uncle lived with us back in    Ohio then and he played the drums. I grew up with a Rock band practicing in my basement.    I did not know it at the time but this little town I lived in knew how to rock. When did music become your main interest and what lead you to take music so seriously?   When I was 13 I saw my first rock concert. It was The kinks (one for the road tour.)    It changed me instantly. Suddenly that was the only thing I wanted to do.    To this day I'm still doing it. My guitar obsession had just started and    I did take some music theory lessons as well. I began learning how to create music or write a song.    I recently worked with two clasical Violinist. A Saxsaphone player and a Pianist. The Music theory lessons did pay off as I was able to talk to them in a launguage they understood.  Being a Singer
