Description

Gotham's institution in brick form

In the Batman world Arkham Asylum is where Gotham's criminals are held, and the set is dark to match. Black, dark bluish grey and light bluish grey set the tone, with reddish brown added, which gives the forbidding front the theme calls for. At 869 pieces it is more than a single house: there are rooms, passages and spots for scenes that run through the whole model rather than staying in one corner. Buildings with an interior invite you to walk figures from room to room and to build a plot step by step.

Seven figures, plenty of plots

Seven minifigures let you cast guards, inmates and heroes at once. A breakout, a chase or a visit by night: the building supplies the backdrop, and the figures drive the story. The pictures on this page show which characters are included, and we do not invent names for them. If you prefer display, the dark facade is a strong motif that sits comfortably beside other Batman sets. Put vehicles from the same line in front and it quickly becomes a small, believable scene.

A hundred and ninety-two kinds

With 192 distinct parts among 869 pieces the set carries a lot of detail: windows, bars, wall sections and accessories that give a building its character. That keeps the build varied, but it demands attention when sorting, particularly because three greys and black side by side can be mistaken for one another in weak light. A good lamp and a few small bowls for the parts make the work noticeably easier. Building in stages and keeping the parts separated by stage helps you keep track of nearly nine hundred pieces.

Thinking beyond the build

The parts list on this page shows every kind individually, which helps when checking a second-hand copy. The What can I build? tool shows which other models could be put together from these bricks, alone or with the pieces you own. Dark grey, black and reddish brown are equally useful for castles, factories and city buildings, so the asylum could one day turn into something quite different. The many special parts make the list worth a look before you plan something new or reorder a specific element.
