Lego’s highly detailed recreation of Gotham City’s skyline is on sale at Walmart as part of the retailer’s huge Lego sale dubbed Bricktember. The month-long event includes a bunch of exclusive Lego bundles and deals on seldom-discounted sets such as this Batman: The Animated Series display model. At 4,210 pieces, Batman: The Animated Series Gotham City is the largest Caped Crusader Lego set in print today.
Released last spring with a $300 price tag, this incredible piece of 3D wall art is on sale for $267 while supplies last. Bricktember runs until the end of September, but this is one of the deals that’s very unlikely to remain in stock through the duration of the sale. The same goes for Walmart’s stellar deal on Lego’s Batman Construction Figure and Bat-Pod Bike. Normally $65, Batman fans can snag this 713-set based on The Dark Knight movies for only $45.

Lego’s colorful depiction of Gotham City’s skyline is based on the opening credits from the classic ’90s cartoon. From a design perspective, this is one of the coolest and most intricate builds in the Lego DC Batman lineup, past or present. But you’ll want to make sure you have ample shelf or wall space ready before you begin piecing together this elaborate love letter to Batman’s best animated TV series. The completed Gotham City skyline measures 17 x 30 x 3 inches, including the large Batman: Animated Series logo above the skyline.
If you like building Lego sets cooperatively with a friend or family member, Gotham City’s large canvas sets up well for two people working simultaneously. Lego even includes two instruction booklets with this set.
Similar to the discontinued Lego Art Jim Lee Batman Collection, the Gotham City Skyline can be mounted to a wall or placed on a shelf. For shelf display, it has a flip-out stand to ensure it remains upright.
Though primarily a piece of artwork to admire with your eyes, the depth and layering of the buildings allowed Lego to incorporate neat interactive elements and some secrets. There are 15 removable panels that provide a glimpse inside of iconic locations across Gotham City, including Wayne Manor, the Batcave, and Arkham Asylum. A couple of panels hide small, buildable Batmobile and Batwing vehicles that can be removed and displayed separately.
You’ll even build small, removable Batmobile and Batwing vehicles. Illustrations of Batman’s confrontations with Catwoman, Joker, and Harley Quinn as well as other scenes are rendered behind some of the other panels. Fittingly, the set includes minifigures of those four characters based on their appearances from the show.
If you want to watch Batman: The Animated Series while working on the Lego version of Gotham City, you can get the complete series on Blu-ray for cheap at Amazon and Walmart. Batman: The Complete Animated Series is available for $39 (was $80) right now. The DVD version of the series is on sale for $30 (was $60) at Walmart.
As mentioned, Walmart’s other major Batman Lego deal for Bricktember is a buildable Batman action figure and bike playset based on The Dark Knight. The Batman Construction Figure and Bat-Pod Lego set is down to $45 (was $65).
If you want to build a larger Lego Batmobile from Batman: The Animated Series, check out the 435-piece Batman with Batmobile vs. Harley Quinn and Mr. Freeze Lego set for $48 (was $60). The Batmobile comes with an information placard to attach to the vehicle’s rotating display stand. The three characters mentioned in the set’s name are included as minifigures.
Lego’s most recent DC Batman building set is the 909-piece Batman Forever Batmobile, which launched in August for $100.
On September 9, the Lego Batman lineup will expand once again with the release of the 2,953-piece Arkham Asylum display model for adults. A modular build with many different rooms, the Arkham Asylum set is pitched as both a traditional display model and a buildable holiday calendar. Lego DC Batman: Arkham Asylum is available to preorder for $300 and is exclusive to the Lego Store at launch.
