Yeah cool, lets hope we will get propper sets next.
I thought that was Dr. Strange for a moment before realizing it was Ra's Al Ghul.
No UltraGigaSuperHyper Platinum-Diamond-Edition for $199.99?
smh my head
70$ for a lego game ? Didn't they added a 0 by mistake ?
This promises to be a pop-culture deep-dish. Looking forward to this!
I'm curious to see what they did for the Batpod.
It would be nice if they had a 1940s Batmobile or at least the 1966 one.
Who is the cheerful character with Penguin's face and a Power Miners torso?

I’d rather have the original 1963 Batmobile.
"Who is the cheerful character with Penguin's face and a Power Miners torso?"
In the Joker image? Looks like an Arkham guard, based on the last image.
It's an absolute shame that the games department is probably going to be neglected under whoever buys WBD so that we don't get stellar games like these.

Assuming you mean the guy just above Ra’s al Ghul, pretty sure that’s Mr Freeze, specifically the Arnold Schwarzenegger version from Batman and Robin

No.
All I wanted to know was news of an exclusive minifigure packaged with the physical editions (like they used to do), but alas I see no mention of one. :(
If you want the complete game at launch, you'll have to spend $260.
The deluxe version, aka the actual (full) game with content cut and placed behind a paywall prior to launch is $90, and it's an additional $170 for the bonus DLC included with 76330, 76331, 76332 and 76333.
