Lego Classic Batmobile - If You Want The New Batman Set By Christmas, Order Soon
The 1,822-piece Batmobile Lego set costs $150 and released October 1
Lego Batman: Classic Batmobile from 1966 TV Series
The 1966 Batmobile is a more in-depth build than some of the other smaller Lego Batmobiles. It comes with 1,822 pieces, and the completed build is 19 inches long and seven inches wide.
Like the source material, this is a sleek pursuit vehicle full of bat-gadgets. It has cool bat-features like molded windshields, an openable trunk with the Bat-computer inside, a rear jet engine, and an informative plaque to complete the display. Naturally, you'll get a Batman minifigure to put in the driver's seat, and he looks just like the Caped Crusader portrayed by the legendary Adam West. There's even painted eyebrows on his cowl. Unfortunately, there's no can of Bat-Shark Repellant in this set.
The new set isn't the only incarnation of the Batmobile that has received the Lego treatment--far from it. Though some of Lego's Batmobile sets are discontinued--the Batcave Shadow Box, which comes with a Batmobile, is retiring soon--there are still several available now at major retailers.

Another budget option is the recently released Batmobile from the Batman: The Animated Series, which is priced at $60. This is a nice and compact build, and it includes minifigures of Batman, Mr. Freeze, and Harley Quinn. For the absolute cheapest option, this pocket-sized Batmobile is a fun lunchtime build for just $21.60.
On the pricier end of Batmobile Lego sets, you can grab the Tumbler from the Dark Knight trilogy. It's a very cool 2,049-piece build, but it's also significantly more expensive than the upcoming Batmobile--though it's on sale for $227 at Amazon (down from $270). Or for something much more affordable, this pocket-sized Batmobile is a fun lunchtime build for just $22.
