Review: Lego 30166 Robin and Redbird Cycle Polybag Set

So going through the booths in the PhLUG meet up netted me this:

Yep couldn't resist.  I plunked down 650 pesos for this polybag.

Went back and forth a couple of times before finally deciding to cop it.  I mean I have a couple of Batman sets already why not add Robin to the mix!


Open it up!

Robin: 

The Robin minifig comes with two facial expressions!  Nice!  With the mostly red coloring it reminds me of Tim Drake's Robin.

Ahhh I've fallen and I can't get up!

Building Redbird:

Batman's gonna kill me!

Oh no!  I have to fix this before Batman gets back!

Finishing up:

One sweet looking Redrobin cycle!  And the Robin minifig is not bad too!  This will look really good beside Batman!

Review: The Batmobile (Lego kit 30161)

I was browsing through one of those toy sales in Manila when I chanced upon this beauty.  Even though they asked for 600 pesos for the model (About US$14) for it I couldn't resist and ponied up my money.  I mean its Batman's batmobile with flaming wings at the back!

Oh man its a little Batmobile!

So as usual I had my girlfriend quickly build up the kit:

Woohoo flaming Batmobile!

Beware the Bat criminals!

Nice silver accents on the wheels!

Nice wheels Batman!

Those flames!

Those flames again!

Holy flaming cars Batman!

Overall it's a nice kit especially if you are a Batman fan and must absolutely have all of the Batman related merch.  I think I did overpay for it at US$14 (600 pesos).  My girlfriend did enjoy building it.
