Fans of the Dark Knight can now recreate Gotham City’s infamous Arkham Asylum using Lego bricks. This impressive Batman model, comprised of 2,953 pieces, is now available exclusively at the Lego Store for $300. The detailed set features 16 minifigures and boasts a modular design, offering the unique possibility of transforming it into a 24-day, buildable Advent Calendar – although with a higher price tag than the recently released new 2025 Lego Advent Calendars.

$300 | Available Now
Although the Lego DC Arkham Asylum set isn’t officially branded as an Advent Calendar, its design perfectly lends itself to the one-piece-per-day structure of the popular holiday countdown. You could construct a section of the building each day for a total of 24 days. Given that the set includes a comprehensive collection of 16 Batman heroes and villains as minifigures, you’ll likely unveil a new character on most days.
Here’s the complete list of minifigures included in the Lego DC Batman Arkham Asylum set:
- Batman
- Robin
- Batwoman
- Catwoman
- Batwing
- The Joker
- Harley Quinn
- The Riddler
- The Penguin
- Bane
- Mr. Freeze
- Poison Ivy
- Scarecrow
- Killer Croc
- Security Guard (x2)
Naturally, you have the option to disregard the Advent Calendar approach and complete the entire build over a single weekend. The fully assembled three-story asylum measures 10.23 x 9.84 x 12.59 inches. While the dimensions might seem modest considering the high piece count, the set prioritizes intricate interior details and furnished rooms. Furthermore, unlike some Lego sets lacking exterior walls on the sides and back, Arkham Asylum presents a complete, enclosed structure.
Upon finishing the build, you can detach the three floors to showcase and modify the furnished rooms and holding cells. Sections on each floor are designed for easy removal. Prison cell doors can be opened with the push of a button, and inmates can personalize their cells using 65 stickers inspired by Batman lore.
Each minifigure is equipped with transparent stands that can be attached to the building or front yard, allowing you to create dynamic poses that capture moments from the movies.
The set also includes an Arkham Asylum inmate transport van. Promotional images depict Harley Quinn driving the van, seemingly poised to successfully break the Joker out of the asylum.
More Batman Lego Sets
This new Arkham Asylum model adds to the growing lineup of impressive Lego sets based on the Dark Knight, the iconic rogues’ gallery of Gotham City, diverse versions of the Batmobile, and other recognizable landmarks from Batman’s world.
A 909-piece Lego recreation of the distinctive Batmobile from Batman Forever debuted in August at a price of $100. It’s just one of several Batman Lego sets focused on the Batmobile or other iconic vehicles like the Bat-Pod from Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy. You can find the Bat-Pod in a neat package along with a buildable Batman figure for $45 (down from $65) at Amazon. Also, you can currently save 20% on the Batmobile Tumbler from The Dark Knight and the Batmobile from Batman: The Animated Series.
The Arkham Asylum set stands out as one of the most detailed Batman Lego sets available. Though, it is not the one with the highest number of bricks. That distinction goes to the Batman: The Animated Series Gotham City, a sizable piece of 3D wall art depicting the city’s skyline. It also sells for $300, yet it contains 4,210 pieces. The Arkham Asylum build offers a more dynamic building experience, as the 3D art like Gotham City have higher piece counts due to the extensive use of tiny bricks needed to complete the backgrounds.
Walmart previously offered the Lego Gotham City wall art for $267 during their Bricktember Sale, but it’s now sold out. Amazon is currently offering a small discount bringing the price down to $288.
If you are interested in revisiting the original Lego Batman video game trilogy, check out the Lego Worlds Collide 2025 Humble Bundle. The PC game bundle contains 17 Lego video games for only $15, including all three Batman titles and Lego DC Super-Villains.
