"Batman: Man-Bat Attack earns its BrickScore of 73.5 as a Recommended set for DC collectors, delivering two genuinely exciting first-time or long-awaited minifigures and a Batcopter with a proper working winch, even if the build itself is modest and Batman himself adds nothing new."
Batman: Man-Bat Attack scores 73.5 on the BrickScore, landing it as a Recommended set that is clearly minifigure-driven rather than build-driven. Reviewers and owners converge on the Nightwing and Man-Bat figures as the primary reasons to buy, with Nightwing's first appearance since 2006 (in his New 52 red suit) drawing particular enthusiasm. Owners rate it 4.58 out of 5 across 89 ratings with a 96% would-recommend rate, tracking closely with the moderate expert consensus.
Where they split: Most LEGO.com reviewers rated it 100/100, driven by minifig enthusiasm. More analytical reviews scored it 80 or below and highlighted the generic Batman, the one-sided chase scenario, and suggested Penguin Face Off or Riddler Chase as more satisfying alternatives at similar price points. The overall consensus is positive but the gap between minifig-focused and build-focused reviewers is visible.

Owners love this set for its exclusive minifigures (especially Nightwing's first New 52 release and the inaugural Man-Bat figure) and sleek Batcopter design, though some report durability issues with the helicopter blades.
