In 2006, 7 sets of the Batman range were marketed, in 2007 3 sets and in 2008 4 sets.
Magnets and key chains were also marketed from 2006 to 2008.
In total there are 25 different minifigs that can be found in these sets and many emblematic characters from the DC Comics universe are represented: Batman itself in four different versions, Robin in two versions, Bane, Catwoman, Harley Quinn, killer croc, Nightwing, Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, Scarecrow, The Joker, The Penguin, The riddler et Two face.
To this are added the minifigs ofAlfred, Bruce Wayne and some sidekicks of the villains or guardians of the Arkham Asylum. In 2008, the LEGO Batman video game produced by TT Games was released and was a huge hit with young audiences.
Within the game, many characters appear as Ra's al-Ghul ou clayface. These characters have never been edited in minfigs despite their presence in the video game.
The range of sets released between 2006 and 2008 gave pride of place, and we sometimes wonder why, to many vehicles from films, comics, or video games.
You can find almost everything that flies, floats or rolls in these sets: Batmobile, Bat-Tank, Batboat, Batcopter, etc ..... On the occasion of the release of the film The Dark Knight in 2008, LEGO offers even a set with the Tumbler (7888 The Tumbler: Joker's Ice Cream Surprise).
This range has its faults: many machines are fanciful and come from peripheral comics or cartoons and one gets the impression that LEGO, convinced that it takes machines to better sell its sets, has scraped the bottom of the drawer to offer something other than a few minifigs.
One of the emblematic sets of this range will remain the set 7784 The Batmobile: Ultimate Collectors' Edition released in 2006 with its 1045 pieces.
AFOLs often consider that this range has not really worked. The mix of different Batman universes (comics, films, cartoons) is undoubtedly for something.
Even in 2008, when the movie The Dark Knight was released, LEGO found a way to market sets that had nothing to do with the movie's universe. Comic book fans are often universe purists. origin or the best interpretations made of it in the cinema for example.
In 2012, LEGO will have an interest in offering sets respecting the universes and characters concerned to ensure the loyalty of AFOLs fans of superheroes.
On the children's side, we suspect that this new DC / Marvel license will work, especially thanks to the many superhero films coming out this year and next year.
To catch up and get these sets of the Batman 2006/2007/2008 rangeyou will need to turn to eBay or bricklink. Be careful, the prices of certain sets sometimes reach peaks.
