I’ll just pretend that this is a DC Comics minifgure series, which should soothe the pain of disappointment. I would’ve much preferred a core Minifigure series, but hey, I guess this shows that LEGO were really banking hard on The LEGO Batman Movie to be a continued success. I still don’t quite like the 20-character formats as it’s incredibly expensive to collect them all and to be honest, I don’t think the LEGO Batman Movie will be all that relevant in 2018, given that the movie failed to capture everyone’s imaginations like The LEGO Movie did. So yeah, I’m a bit happier with Series 2 than I am with the first one as it has a much beefier line-up of interesting and memorable characters. Larger images of LEGO Batman Movie Minifigures below for your viewing pleasure. The camera is also another reference to what is probably the most disturbing plot point in DC history… My favourites so far have to be the “Kneel before Zod in polls” newspaper tile, as well as Beach Joker’s obvious reference to The Killing Joke, where the Joker wears a similar tropical shirt when he visits the Gordons. There are some really cool Easter eggs hidden in Series 2. Official minifigure names aren’t available yet, so I’ve made some of these up (especially the Beach Bat-family), so don’t hold me to them! Until the official minifigure checklist is available, here’s a handy graphic I made which has all the character names from LEGO Batman Movie Series 2 for your reference.

Series 2 seems quite promising in the sense that they’ve toned down the obscure characters, and fleshed it out with more well-known DC staples like Black Canary, Zod and Jor-El.įans of obscure DC Villains aren’t left out as we get the likes of Clock King and Doctor Phosphorus, but also some solid additions such as Hugo Strange. I say that as a big DC Comics fan, but an even bigger LEGO Minifigures fan. If you’ve read my review of the first Series, I wasn’t that big a fan of the Series as it felt bloated with a lot of fringe, obscure characters which were great for DC fans, but kind of missed the mark for everybody else.

I do recommend just buying the whole set rather than feeling your way through boxes if you intend to collect all 20. You can find them at your local toy store, or on or even on Amazon. Like all minifigure series, they’ll likely retail for US$3.99, AU$5.99, £2.99 and €3.99. Like the first LEGO Batman Movie Minifigures Series, Series 2 will once again feature 20 minifigures to collect and will have a release date of 1 January 2018. UPDATE: I’ve completed my review of LEGO Batman Movie Minifigures Series 2! Check it out to see what I thought of each minifigure and for more photos!Įarly this morning, LEGO officially announced Series 2 of the LEGO Batman Movie Minifigures, which for all intents and purposes is pretty much a glorified DC Comics Minifigure Series, with a few splashes of actual LEGO Batman Movie references.
