LEGO Batman – The Batwing: The Joker’s Aerial Assault The Clown Prince of Crime is at it again! This time it s biological warfare, with his signature dark touch of humor: the Joker s goal is to drop laughing gas over Gotham City. Batman, once again, is called on to save the city. His mission is to launch Batwing s secret missiles at the Joker s venom-laden helicopter. If they hit the spotlights, the Joker is ejected and his diabolical plans are foiled again until the next time.

Before all this happens, of course, intrepid young Lego engineers must build the 15-inch Batwing and 9-inch Joker Copter using the 523-piece kit, which includes parts for the flying machines, Batman, Joker, henchmen, and miscellaneous gadgets and weapons. Assembled correctly, the Batwing wings can be raised, missiles can be shot, the helicopter rotors will spin, evil-looking laughing gas canisters will drop, and the dangling ladder will fall. Lego whizzes will be eager to add the Aerial Assault to their collection of Lego Batman kits. –Emilie Coulter
Customer Review: Satisfied with purchase
My 8-year-old son really wanted this specific set for his birthday. Since all Lego Batman sets were out-of-production I had to pay more than the original manufacturer’s price. Since I purchased the product in November 2008 the price has risen even higher.
