is that red pin on the seat a new piece?
Nice video. Cool car.
But is it normal or only the roof piece of mine is not totally black but with slightly grey in it (or matt black with slight grey stripes)?
Thank you very much!
@@Jangshock you mean the technic panel? It is also supposed to be black like the beams.
@@RacingBrick the one big panel that makes the first half of the roof…I now saw in other videos that there it’s also a different black then the rest (with slight dark grey stripes on it). Hm…maybe a quality problem? Unforrunately you dont show the roof from near…Will ask customer service.
a little bit like the problem they had with the roof on the 1989 batmobile…
But cool clear video however!
At first it looked meh to me, but as I went though the speed build it's actually impressive how interesting some building techniques are
The same... but those front wheels still make me sad... It just does`t fit properly
Its not interesting its bloody frustrating
@@zaphodbeeblebrox8184what does pit mean?
Was really put off by the lack of suspension, however the reasoning for why is pretty understandable. As a technic model it fundamentally looks a lot better, and functional than the F&F Charger. Really like how effective the light brick is with the engine in the rear, Definitely picking this one up after the Raptor next year.
1370 pieces for $100 seems like a good deal. Even if it's missing a lot of technique, and is more about aesthetics. This and the Ford f150 are pretty good value for money if you're looking for parts.
I think the new differential was used as it provides a higher gearing up right there, so less need for gearing up elsewhere. The engine and flame all spin fast.
My favorites it's Lego Technic 2021 10+ 42127 The Batman Batmobile Set
6:12 Be careful, everyone. I unintentionally put the flames on wrong. When I tried to take it off, it pulled out a shaft from the engine as well. The engine stopped working, and so did my heart.
If anyone runs into this, the way I fixed it is to turn the car upside down before sliding the shaft back in.
It's a cool set but suspension would be great i agree with that
I think it looks amazing from the front. But I don’t like the back wheels being bigger since I don’t think they are in the film, and the rear light mounts should be longer making it longer, pointier and sleeker.
The rear wheels certainly are larger in the back, there's a video on RUclips detailing the new Batmobile
I think despite lack of wheel caps and sharper angles in the back of vehicle, you can appreciate the build part. The innards of this car is clever, thank u
Hi Balázs, great review! The car also grew on me, originally I was quite disappointed because of the lack of a functional steering wheel, but I understand that would need a lot of changes. At 7:12 you stated that the hinge piece was released in 2020, but thats not really the case. The one in this set (57697) was released in 2020, but previously there was 41532, a practically identical part, they just updates the mold recently. Thanks for the great review!
Glad you like the video! Yes, I realized after the video that the piece was around before that, I just found first the updated mold on Bricklink based on the ID. I found it even in one of my son's City sets but as he built those I did not meet the piece before :)
and in the set 60014, from 2013
Yea i was gonna say uuuuhhh i have the piece from years ago
Wasn't that part also used in the micro manager from the Lego movie? I have the part but I got the set like 4-5 years back now, and it had like 4-6 of those I think. Maybe it is different idk.
Oh it only had two of them but it had them.
I just picked it up, I really start to like technic sets but the thing that really keeps me from being interested in them is the bright colour of all the pins, especially when you see them, I really think giving them a better colour can make the sets perfect
If you go on bricklink you can buy parts individually. All pins and axles used to be black or light gray for frictionless. For less than the price of a set you can order a bunch of each type and replace the visible pins on the outside of the set and make it all look smoother
After looking at this video I was convinced I wanted it. But my local stores were out of stock. On the drive home I saw a garage sale down the street and noticed the lady had this set along with Lego City 60246. I ended up picking both set for $80. What a coincidence... It was meant to be. I have yet to build it, but the coincidence really amazed me.
Loved the set very interesting techniques I removed the red light brick to put in a axel,gear and motor to start a RC conversion but I’m struggling to find a good point to point In a hidden steering motor with enough tweaking i might be able to get dual motor rear wheel drive but for now it’s good with one motor I was able to keep the v8 and spinning flames and I want to try to keep them in the end if I get the dual motor drive working
I want to try something like this. Do you have any resources on how to go about it?
Great video! I started to appreciate all the little details in the look of the build while watching the build process. Looking forward to the release in Canada
An excellent set. Enjoyed building this with the kids over the weekend. Looks smashing in the end.
Putting the fire light under the hood it’s pretty awesome
It looks so good!!! Great review and 100% grabbing this set
as I thought the engine looks amazing and the model itself is very nice!
whats with the small front wheels :/
I plucked up the courage to open this set and build it, and I'm glad I did. As much as I like my pristine boxed sets this was a fun build and a really good display piece.
Making this car RC will be quite the challenge
This set is a big surprise!
7:20 this "pin-connenctor" was often used in LEGO Exoforce sets :)
That was a different part! :D The new one is "Hinge Cylinder 1 x 3 Locking with 1 Finger and Pin with Squared Pin Hole and Friction Ridges Lengthwise on Ends", the old one is "Hinge Cylinder 1 x 3 Locking with 1 Finger and Pin with Round Hole and Friction Ridges Lengthwise on Ends".
Never seen this piece btw previously, don't understand why it is not commonly used in Technic sets.
@@RacingBrick Oh I see. Didn't notice the difference at first 😅
I literally yesterday finished this set. Also, this is my first LEGO set, and to get the batmobil is pretty amazing. It was fun and interesting to build. Although, I made some changes to the front wheels. I didn't liked how they were inside the car's body. So I put extra spacer part on the axel, and now the front wheels comes a little bit outside of the body. It makes the car more agresive. Also, switched wheel covers front to back and vice versa. Overall, I agree great set!👍
Just finished it too, and it was my first ever Lego set
That sounds interesting! Did you replace the axels for longer ones as well? I run into the problem of the front fenders touching the wheels if they come out any further than the original build though.
@@dodidolan No, I didn't put longer axles. Just simply put the smal cylindrical spacer for the front wheels and little bit modified wheel covers. And that's it. This model for me is just a display peace.
I need sleep but I want to keep watching
this set is a great resource for black parts! Separately, I was pleased with the transparent engine cylinders! in general, you need to take it without hesitation, but of course de only at a discount😁😂
Here is it - 42127 review with natural human voice. Thank you for your friendly content!
After watching the movie and seeing some other models, Lego got quite a few details wrong. The front bumper should be dark gray, and there should be 2 turbos near the engine
Agreed. The fact that the front bumper isn't grey really annoys me.
Looks like you could turn this into KITT, a car far more deserving of immortality through Lego.
I'm so glad I opted to get this for my birthday. Can't wait to build it.
Cool vampire set
That technic pin with ratchet joint appeared as far back as alpha team (mission deep sea) in like 2000 (or at least a part that's comparable). great video
Was on the fence about this one thanks for convincing me
you videos never fail to make me put a smile on my face
keep it up
That hinge piece with a pin is not new. It used to be around back in early 2000s.
yeah thats what I thought
I'm snapping this up on the 1st of January for me being a batman nut it's a must, however I won't be putting the flames on it bonnet, back top etc.
My set was missing a clear red rod for the taillights. I ended up using the red rod from the roof of the car to keep the taillights symmetrical. Other than that, a great build. Took about 9 hours total over 3 days. The steering left a little to be desired. Not a lot of range, and it’s a little loose. 7/10
I had just gotten this yesterday and I have been having problems with it, despite having the instructions, thx for the video, It's fully built 👌
The main reason why im hesitate to buy this model is the rear wheel panels...
The movie's batmobile has a "Bat ear" lookalike metal parts on the back what is not modeled on this car....Its so dissapointing imo.
After seeing the build process I am a lot more interested in this set. Going to put it on my watchlist. Cheers.
"Last year" was 19 years ago ;) 42127 uses newer mould, but piece itself was introduced in 2002: 41532
If you check the comments it was already discussed a few times, but thanks for pointing out ;)
Where are the pronounced 'bat ears' on the back? Just looks like a hod rod not the batmobile.
9:20-I thought i jacked up. You woukd have LEGO would have made an extension from the bacj piston light to illuminate the front light at the same time-when depressed.
I knew this was a winner the moment I saw it. Got it day 1and loving it!
Got it today from Walmart for $49. Excited to start building it.
Bought it yesterday in discount in Holland and build it today ... absolutely loving this car/set! Can't wait to see it in action in the Batman movie :)
8:27 it was used so that in case one wheel doesnt rotate the axis wont break
At 7:12, isn't that an older piece? I remember a set i have which has that piece, and the set is from a year before 2010 I think
A slightly different one, but I relied on Bricklink and the new design only appeared in 2020. Never met the old one though, should have been more common in Technic.
@@RacingBrick I have some from the antman set 76039, they connected Yellowjackets wing gun arm thingies
@@zakroberts9052 Oh yeah, that's another set where I got it from
Yes, it's been around for almost 20 years-they just slightly revised the shape of the technic pin end last year. But click hinges in general are much more of a System thing, so I'm not surprised if you mostly/entirely buy Technic if you haven't seen it before.
@@RacingBrick it showed up a bit in Bionicle and Hero Factory sets, and gets used a lot in technic-ish mechs, like the Exo-Force line.
Great vid! I still can't get the engine to fit, step 124, with the light brick popping out and the engine block itself sitting at odd angle
Thank you for this. I have been waiting to see how this is built and the official parts listing. Getting a couple will be worth it to me for the engine block, fenders, and various other bits in black for custom work.
"Shinny Vampire" has a Cool Ass Car, Can't Lie, lol.
It still surprises me that different countries get different boxes, I haven't seen a "push tab" box in Australia for years
The boxes in the USA (and possibly elsewere) are required to have the parts count included, here in Europe that's not the case. As a result they produce different boxes. Honestly I like the push tab ones better, As if you cut around all 3 sides, you can make a box that opens with a flap.
@@nkende Australian boxes don't have the parts count on them, 2-3 seals and that's it. So much easier, box stays in perfect condition once it's open. Typically storage is a pain but perfect for resale if that's what you do
Just got mine today can’t wait to build it from what I’ve seen it’s not available for pickup around all my local stores and for pre order it’s coming till next month but ran past it today in Walmart and had to get it
Pretty sure I’ve seen the ‘new piece’ you called out at 7:09 - but I don’t recall where.
I didn't realize there was a previous very similar version - www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=41532&name=Hinge%20Cylinder%201%20x%203%20Locking%20with%201%20Finger%20and%20Pin%20with%20Round%20Hole%20and%20Friction%20Ridges%20Lengthwise%20on%20Ends&category=%5BHinge%5D#T=P
Anyone else have a problem at 4.53. Bumber doesn't seem to fit on to the front of the car.
Good Review, but the set is waaay to colorful for a pure black car. The red and blue pins are so annoying
Way too colorful? It's black on black with some gray at the rear, you literally cannot find it in a dark room. Color coded pins are part of the Technic system, if everything was black the building process would be super frustrating.
Thanks for this video. I'm want to bye this wonderful lego set!
I wonder why both versions of this Batmobile come with blue flames when the image in the manual shows red/orange flames for the movie?
I guess the designers were working based on the concept art for the movie, and then the actual movie car looks slightly deifferent from the reference.
@@abelnemeth4346 at least for the minifigure scale one, I think it's that the back engine does have a blue flame while the front is orange, but the blast and splat pieces come as a pack, so they only give 1 color.
I wish we got a new Batman mini fig for this film!
i really wanna see what it looks like without the blue flame pieces! great vid!
Iv got this sitting sealed next to the 1st Bugatti waiting for when I finish the Senna
That pin - rotating thingy combination is quite old. I have a few from 2011-2014
Really good looking car , but i'm not big fan of batman so i would buy the dodge charger because it has suspension
I absolutely love this set!
I built it in four hours-with two breaks.
I was and am quite happy with it, just... You know.. I was disappointed on how easy I found it. Sure, it doesn't have much details as opposed to sets such as the Ferrari set even the Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 set. But it was a fun set to build
Any news about the rmmored F1 car?
So many pieces for my MOC in this set.
One of my favorite Technic touch, working valves. I never get tired of it
looks like a challenge
I have got to say, this one kind of looks like a Chevy Camaro
According to online sources, the real one is a modified 1970 Plymouth Barracuda with a Ford Triton V10 engine.
Hello! Thanks for your great review! Do you have any tips for getting the section activating the front light brick done correctly? I just can't seem to align it properly ... it seems to want to always stay on. I've been stuck here. I've been building Lego for years, but this is my first Technic set. I thought I was doing so well too, LOL! Also, for context, I'm partially blind so zoom in on the instructions digitally and assemble the actual structure by touch after pre-sorting each bag's pieces.
great video! I think that the wheels from Lego set 76139 - Batmobil 1989 would look nice on this one.
Thanks! If you mean the front wheels of the 1989 Batmobile, those are a bit smaller than the ones at the rear on this one so it's not a perfect match unfortunately. We'd need a smaller version of the Tumbler wheels actually.
@@RacingBrick ah.. nevertheless I will speak with Santa to use my card to buy this set for me :D
I have this for Christmas
Hi, thanks for the review. I’ve bought a 2nd hand one and in transit the button on the top has clearly been held down and the rear battery has drained. Any idea on how to replace the battery without taking it apart? Thanks
YES. Only thing is thewaitforchrismas
Bag 6 is giving me trouble. It won’t connect correctly on the left hand side 😭
Good one
Im stuck on the engine piece i cant get the engine to move and its driving me crazy
I got this before watching this. I am curious as to why Lego doesn’t attach stickers to the pages they are referenced on or as a perforated insert within the instructs (at the start or end). I guess people use the app or other digit manuals so that could be a reason.
Either option would be more expensive to manufacture
What should we do when the light brick battery is dead @RacingBrick
You remove the light brick and google "Lego light up brick battery replacement", you'll find what you need for it
The only thing is that I wished was the wheels were a little bit bigger and the car rode higher because the actual batmobile from the batman is like that
We don't really know yet how that actual Batmobile really looks like, there are different photos with different versions floating around
Is there a good way to change the battery in the rear light block
The hinge pin is not a new piece it's been out for at least 10 years
Here’s the thing the reason it looks so similar to DOMS dodge charger because the car is literally a modified dodge charger it’s like the Roided up pitbull version of the Dodge charger
How is the size comparison with the 74620 tumbler sir cause i’m planning on getting 2
Suspension could have been implemented for sure, maybe not easily but it could have.
hasnt that hinge pin been available for like 10 years now?
Bought it.. cant wait.
Wasn't too keen about this set but thanks to your detailed walk through video might buy it since I got Dom's charger so they might look nice next to each other as Movie themed Technic sets
I found mine at target. They had 9 in stock.
This set looks great!!❤️
im stuck fitting the part @06:55 to the main body. Cant seem to fit it perfectly 😢😢
I'm sad because my bro destroyed my Lego set when fully built so 100$ went to waste.
I’m stuck the mechanism that triggers the light brick doesn’t have enough room to move back and forth for me and I don’t have nearly as much room as you have. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated
What batteries are used in the light bricks? The release date could also have something to do with the releaase of the movie in various countries. I guess they don't want to release the set if the movie is not yet released...
the movie will come out on March 4, 2022, so it's not even when LEGO releases the set in the world)
@@danielsala81 wow, there goes my theory...
I bought it for display. It is awesome. Excellent video so you gained a subscriber in me.
Noice
Any recommendations on parts for motorizing this? I have the purple dune buggy set (42124).
Hey guys I made a batmobile homemade thanks to the recent tumbler video you released. It is not in black because of piees but I did it. Do you think I should send pics? please reply in the next 78 hours.
