Don't expect rumoured LEGO 2025 Batcave set to be quite this big

A 17,000-piece LEGO Batman custom model is certain to put the rumoured LEGO 2025 Batcave set to shame, combining Ideas, DC and more.

While we wait for more news on the rumoured 76304 [Batcave] for $99.99 from lego_minecraft_goat, including confirmation that it will exist, we can admire Dream Build Bricks' custom modular Batcave and Wayne Manor model, which sets an incredibly unrealistic expectation for the reported build.

At 17,974 pieces combining 76252 Batcave – Shadow Box, 21330 Home Alone, 76122 Batcave Clayface Invasion, 76265 Batwing: Batman vs. The Joker and 31058 Mighty Dinosaurs and many other elements, this is a staggeringly impressive custom model, making good use of official sets in what might just be the ultimate Batman build.

17,974 pieces are far more elements than any official LEGO set and something of this size would almost certainly never be a model to buy on shelves, but it's hard not to admire the enthusiast's efforts. The custom Batcave takes inspiration from all kinds of Batman media, nestled within the framework of 76252 Batcave – Shadow Box.

Specifically, the trophies are a great inclusion that makes use of a LEGO Creator 3-in-1 set and something that would be great to see officially in the rumoured 2025 Batcave set.

Custom instructions for this build are available now on Rebrickable for $20, but you'll need to track down the five sets and additional pieces yourself at a considerable extra cost. This build might be one to admire from afar while we wait for whatever the rumoured Batcave has to offer. Take care to treat all LEGO rumours with caution until an official announcement is made though.
