Batman Returns was released 31 years ago today and to celebrate the anniversary, there’s a range of LEGO sets now available – if a bit late.
On June 19, 1992, Batman Returns revisited Michael Keaton’s Batman, decades before his return as the character in 2023’s The Flash.
Timing with The Flash, there’s a new range of LEGO DC models based on Michael Keaton’s portrayal of the Caped Crusader on the official online store now, including the biggest DC set by far.
The first film has a fair few sets, both old and new, as well, making for one of the most monumental LEGO DC waves in recent years. Here’s a look at what you can currently find, and what has since retired, for both.

These three builds are now retired and no longer available.
