Adding more villains to the Lego Batcave

Post by artemisknab »

I'm a huge fan of Lego and the classic Batcave set 76052, but obviously it falls short in terms of including every villain and supporting character from the show. So I used bricklink.com to find appropriate pieces to make more minifigs. My current goal is cover every villain who gets named in the opening credits - so Calamity Jan is in but no Frontier Fanny (yet). I've covered 11 characters so I thought I'd post some of my favorites so far.

Anyone interested in sourcing the parts to make your own can find the parts list for each character here: https://linktr.ee/batman66minifigs. I'm not ambitious enough to model my own parts from scratch, so everything is available on the secondary market, although some pieces are harder to find than others.

Thanks everyone! It's pretty cool how parts from other themes can be made to work - like the Elsa head and Princess Leia torso for Marsha, and an old J Jonah Jameson head for Clock King. Lots more to come...
