Synthesized Verdict

"A smart, affordable Batman set with a genuinely clever dual-cycle play mechanic and the best Mr. Freeze figure to date, marred mainly by a smaller-than-expected footprint and some print quality inconsistencies; at $19.99 and 10 cents per piece, reviewers and owners alike consider it fair value."

The Mr. Freeze Batcycle Battle (76118) earns its Recommended tier as a compact, well-priced 200-piece Batman set whose central gimmick, a four-wheeled Batcycle that splits into two separate motorcycles, is genuinely inventive. Both Brickset and JANG highlighted the minifigure trio as a strength, with the new Mr. Freeze design drawing particular acclaim. Owner ratings are limited in number (only 5 LEGO.com reviews) but uniformly positive at 4.75 out of 5, with 100% recommending the set.

Where they split: JANG leaned positive overall on value and fun, while Brickset was more measured, noting the separation function fell short of expectations and flagging several print quality issues. The gap is modest and both reviewers agreed the minifigures were the set's strongest element.

LOVED (6)

01Mr. Freeze minifigure with new fishbowl-style helmet is visually distinctive and well-executed
02Dual-vehicle transformation: the Batcycle splits into two functional motorcycles for two-player play
03Strong price-to-part ratio at exactly 10 cents per piece, considered excellent by JANG
04Damian Wayne Robin is a well-detailed and less commonly available variant
05Trans-orange elements create an appealing light-through effect on the vehicles
06Built-up projectile warheads are durable and hold up better than standard stud shooters

CRITICIZED (7)

01Set is noticeably smaller in person than box photography suggests
02Batman and Robin minifigures cannot sit down properly in their cockpits, which lack seats
03Back-face alternate printing on Batman is described as washed out and of notably worse quality than Robin's
04Metallic silver band on Mr. Freeze's helmet does not continue all the way around the head
05Exposed Technic axle pins look awkward when the Batcycle is split into two vehicles
06Mr. Freeze lacks leg printing
07Snow scooter for Mr. Freeze is very simple and some reviewers removed it quickly

What reviewers are saying

"This is a small set. It is much smaller to me than the part count and the price originally suggested. I mean ultimately it's like two handfuls worth of stuff that you get here in total."

JANG's LEGO Reviews

"Minifigures are frequently the highlight of smaller Super Heroes sets and 76118 Mr. Freeze Batcycle Battle certainly contains some excellent minifigures, the most notable of which is the new Mr. Freeze figure."

Ecosystem

75975 Watchpoint: Gibraltar — Batman's head appears washed out, although not to the extent of Mercy's face from this set

Previous Batcycle designs — This example seems particularly unusual and stands out compared with previous designs

Standout parts (per reviewers)

Fishbowl-style head element
New element first used on Mysterio; works perfectly for Mr. Freeze's character, almost as if made for him. Though the goggle bands are not printed all the way around.
Trans orange elements (light-through trans orange)
Reviewer specifically praises the use of trans orange rather than opaque color because light can travel through it, creating a nice visual effect.
Built-up projectiles with warheads
Projectiles are assembled with added warhead pieces rather than plain studs, making them more detailed and less prone to being lost during play.
Hollow studs (including one in red)
Included as spare parts; unusual coloring in red.
Bat accessories pack pieces
Multiple specialized pieces from the Batman accessory pack are integrated throughout the set (fan piece on scooter, warhead variants, backpack adapters).
Printed console pieces
Small printed pieces used on Mr. Freeze's scooter dashboard and as accessories; reviewer particularly likes these pieces.
