Here, we break down the top 10 most expensive LEGO DC sets of all time, by RRP. Updated over time.

3. LEGO DC 76240 Batmobile Tumbler - £209.99

RRP £209.99 | $229.99 | €229.99

With a November 2021 release, the LEGO 76240 Batmobile Tumbler is essentially an upgraded re-release of the 2014 Tumbler. With 2049 pieces, the 2021 version is slightly larger, both in terms of part count and size, compared to the previous version. Aside from that, the three big changes are the Batman and Joker minifigures (they’re now more faithful to the Dark Knight film), the interior and the rear tyres.

2. LEGO DC 76139 1989 Batmobile - £219.99

RRP £219.99 | $249.99 | €249.99

With 3306 pieces the LEGO 1989 Batmobile was the first Tim-Burton style LEGO build when it debuted in November 2019. Like the later-released 1989 Batwing, this set faithfully captures the source material and features a detailed, slide-open cockpit, rotating display stand, pop-up machine guns and 3 minifigures: Batman with one piece moulded mask/cape, Dark Turquoise Joker (perfectly representing Jack Nicholson’s portrayal) and Vicki Value.

1. LEGO DC 76052 Batman Classic TV Series Batcave - £229.99

RRP £229.99 | $269.99 | €249.99

Released in March 2016, the 2526 piece LEGO Batman Classic TV Series Batcave features 3 main modules: A Batcopter helipad, central Atomic Pile module and taller Wayne Manor section. The Lincoln Futura-style Batmobile and 9 Classic TV Series minifigures including Batman, Robin, Joker and Alfred, are highlights. However, as this set was designed for adult fans of the 1960s series, it did seem odd that LEGO opted for a play, rather than display focus.
