Greater than one weekI enjoyed putting this together and it looks great. Only thing with ALL Lego models is dusting. They are hard to keep clean. But, this circa 80s Batmobile is at my office and gets a lot of compliments. We are all kids at heart.

> 3 dayStuck at home during COVID with countless nights of watching Netflix, Id been craving an escape and this was it. Im a middle-aged Batman fanatic and the 1989 Batmobile is my favorite of them all. This build is a beast; its large, heavy, reinforced, and wonderfully time-consuming. Its easy to notice that details were carefully crafted by the designers. All the dimensions are as they should be, which I know probably wasnt easy to design for such a sloping frame... so I appreciate that. It definitely feels and looks like a Batman brand, and not something designed to only pass as close to resembling the original design. In total, it was 2, 7-hour building sessions of pure uninterrupted bliss/therapy. During that time, with my concentration tongue sticking out for the majority of it, I thought of nothing else but concentrating on the surprisingly challenging 3,300 piece build. It was mentally stimulating and satisfied my need to create something. It took me 14 hours total, but I was on a roll so Id expect it to take a little longer if youre really going to relax with it. My speediness might have been directly related to my listening to the original Batman score through the first 4 or 5 bags. note: You should expect to have a small handful of tiny pieces left over. Im assuming that is to make up for the loss of some, for whatever reason. For example, I know that Vicki Vale doesnt need 2 cameras, etc. None of them were major pieces, so if you have some of those bigger ones left over, I suggest flipping backwards in the instructional book until you notice what you forgot. Pros: Its really the apex of Lego Batman builds. The build is challenging and the result is an impressive conversation piece. Cons: I finished it and now I want the Batwing.

> 3 dayI started this review a long time ago, but just finished it. This set is amazing! This set is about 23 inches longe (under 2 feet) and this thing is pretty massive. This is actually my very first lego set that was over $100 dollars and Im pretty satisfied. The building experience isnt much more satisfying than building smaller sets except you have more steps to build it. When this set comes together, about halfway, you start to see the size of it. This only took me probably over 10 hours to complete over like 3 days, but that includes stalls. I also bought the Lego grand piano too since I love playing piano. One personal complaint: I dont know if this was a coincident, but somewhere close to the end of the build 2 light gray 2x2 curved-slope must have detached from somewhere in the inside or underneath the vehicle. This wasnt a major problem since the inside wont really be noticeable and doesnt matter as much. I didnt stress over it, I was just very confused, but didnt bother worrying about where it came from. I would recommend this set!! Cant believe Amazon is selling it so high, now.

> 3 dayMy husband bought this for me for Christmas. As I collect Batman stuff. He put it together for me, as I dont have patience to. He really enjoys putting them together. It is really large, with 3306 pieces. Nothing to dislike about it on my end at all

> 3 dayThis is an amazing set! Wish I could have got it from Lego before it retired! Paid WAY too much for it but that’s how the Lego retired market goes… because chumps like me will pay out the ass for them. Overall, pleased with it.
