The LEGO DC Batman 1989 Batwing measures 11 cm high, 52 cm long and 58 cm wide and also impresses as a spectacular showpiece on his stand or on a wall. Unfortunately, the attachment point to receive the display stand is situated towards the rear, thereby preventing sideways display which has been successful for recent Ultimate Collector Series sets.Applying the large information plaque sticker can prove challenging without trapping air bubbles or dust, although I have found success when only detaching the sticker from the backing sheet as I move across the 8x16 tile.

The assembly process is undoubtedly enjoyable but seems rudimentary when compared with 76139 1989 Batmobile. An exclusive depiction of the Joker accompanied 76139 1989 Batmobile and another unique minifigure appears here, wearing the character's mime attire. After all, there are instances where such pieces are not completely hidden which can have a detrimental impact. Functions are always welcome but these dark bluish grey flaps appear awkward against the black bodywork in my opinion. But in terms of the actual Batwing design, we never see any evidence of flaps, ailerons, rudders, elevators, or any other means of controlling the plane besides basic thrust.This structure is slightly more substantial than others, incorporating tiles along either flank which generate brilliant brickwork texture. To better serve uninitiated readers, I'd much rather explain why such colorful elements are used before assuring the reader that the elements are covered up thereafter.

The box for this set displays the now familiar 18+ strip along the bottom of the box, detailing set and part numbers. The head remains unchanged from 2019 which is somewhat disappointing because there is certainly potential for improvement here.

The cockpit canopy is a reasonable attempt using existing parts, but it really fails to capture the swooping curves of the original. Curved slopes are placed along the outermost edges of each wing, nestling almost perfectly against wedge plates. Batman's repeated presence is required but offering Lawrence instead of Bob is unusual, given the renown of the Joker's 'Number One Guy'.Overall, if you like Batman, and especially the 1989 Burton/ Keaton movie, you will appreciate this set. The angle is fixed which was necessary to support the substantial weight of the Batwing, although that does only yield two options for display with the aircraft flying upwards or downwards, as demonstrated below.
