A few weeks ago, we reported that the LEGO Batman 1989 Batmobile (76139) was given new parts for the cockpit roof and LEGO has given an explanation why they changed it. The reasoning is as obvious as you think which is the 6×6 tile has a matte finish to it along with an injection point in the middle. Since there is now a the new 2×6 tile, LEGO decided to update the Batmobile with the new parts, three of them to be exact. LEGO suggests to hold off on requesting the new parts until February or March but I’ve already suggested contacting customer service about it which many of you have already done. The Batmobile is still out of stock on the LEGO Shop but it is available on Amazon with shipping still arriving before Christmas.

As everyone has speculated, the change was done due to the creation of the new 2×6 tile. The 6×6 tile has a non polished surface and with the creation of this new 2×6 tile element the project team decided to update the current model to make this iconic car look even greater 🙂

If you would like the new roof I would recommend holding off requesting until February or March. This request is done with understanding that many kids lose parts or having missing parts from their Christmas presents.

You can report the elements “missing” on LEGO.com, hopefully in a few months :), and the parts will be on their way.

One of the more LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2021 sets that I’m really excited for is the Attack on the Spider Lair (76175). It has 466 pieces and retails for $69.99 but it won’t be out here in the US until March 1. One of the more interesting things about the set is that it includes a number of Spider-Men from the Spider-Verse including regular Spider-Man, Peter Parker, Iron Spider, and Ultimate Spider-Man, aka Big Time Spider-Man.

If you look really close, there’s also some Easter Eggs in the set at the monitors where it is showing the Bombastic Bag-Man Suit on the left monitor where Peter Parker uses a spare Fantastic Four costume. The right monitor shows someone playing a Spider-Man game, possibly the one from Insomniac on the PlayStation 4. The PS4-style controller nearby could be a clue.

Could LEGO have something in the works with Sony or is this just something the designers threw in while using some creative liberties. The Bombastic Bag-Man suit is also a big thing considering we don’t have any official Fantastic Four characters as LEGO minifigures. This could mean that we may get them in the future considering that the team is back with Marvel after Disney bought out 20th Century Fox. Of course this is just speculation but this is a very interesting teaser that fans may have missed.

A few hours ago, Disney held their Investor Day where they showed a lot of upcoming shows from various franchises. The most exciting thing for me was the Marvel Studios part of the event where Kevin Feige talked about some of the projects that will be coming out for Marvel and the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the next few years. Let’s take a look at everything that was shown to see if there’s any potential LEGO sets that could come out of it. Of course, these are only guesses and not guaranteed to be true.

• WandaVision – We probably won’t see anything come out for this.
• The Falcon and the Winter Soldier – It’s possible that there could be a one-off set for it featuring both characters.
• Loki – An interesting show that I have no idea what’s going on and highly unlikely to see any sets.
• What If…? – I can actually see this happening in some form. It’ll be cool to see some of the main Marvel characters in different roles.
• Shang-Chi: The Legend of the Ten Rings – 50% chance we’ll see one set for the movie.
• Ms. Marvel – A good opportunity to introduce the character to a wider audience.
• Captain Marvel 2 – More than likely we’ll see something out of it.
• Hawkeye – The show will be cool but probably no.
• She-Hulk – Like Ms. Marvel, it’ll be cool to see a She-Hulk minifigure.
• Moon Knight – I’d give it … Continue

If you purchased the LEGO Batman 1989 Batmobile (76139) early on, the roof on the cockpit used a matte 6×6 tile which also shows a unsightly injection point in the middle. LEGO has recently updated the set quietly on the building instructions and has changed out the part out for three 2×6 tiles (Part 6318582) to give it a sleeker look which is more consistent with the rest of the vehicle.

If you have the set already, you can contact customer service to see if they will be able to offer you the parts. The tile is a new piece for 2020 as it was introduced with the LEGO Nintendo Entertainment System (71374) and the LEGO Ideas 123 Sesame Street (21324). You can also purchase it on Bricks & Pieces for $0.29 each. If you are able to purchase the 1989 Batmobile when it is back in stock, you’ll most likely get the updated parts and instructions.
