Year Released
2015 - Debuted in set 76025 Green Lantern vs. Sinestro
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. While released in a mid-priced set, this specific variant has become highly sought after by Batman collectors and fans of the 'Blackest Night' storyline.
Head
Light Flesh face with white pupils/glowing yellow eyes and a grimace. Features a standard Black Batman Cowl (part 21306/10113) with short ears.
Torso
Black torso with yellow and gold Sinestro Corps / Yellow Lantern insignia and suit detailing. Features black arms and black hands. Back printing includes suit mechanical details.
Legs
Dual-molded or printed; Yellow base with black printing on the hips and upper legs to create the Sinestro Corps uniform boots and suit design.
Accessories
Traditional black fabric cape with 'scalloped' edges. In the original set, he is often associated with the Super Jumper element (clear plastic).
Color Scheme
A striking Yellow and Black palette meant to represent the power of Fear, accented with subtle metallic gold line-work.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso (front and back) and legs (front). The alignment of the yellow suit 'v' on the torso with the legs is a key quality marker.
Variants
This is the only official LEGO Sinestro Corps Batman. Other 'special' Batmen exist (White Lantern, Zur-En-Arrh), but they are usually SDCC exclusives.
Condition Notes
Watch for fraying on the fabric cape. The yellow printing on the black torso can occasionally show through thinning (translucency), and the hip joints may develop hairline cracks over time.
Estimated Value
Used: $30.00 - $45.00 | New (Figure only): $50.00 - $65.00. Value has steadily increased as the set 76025 has been retired for years.
Price (New)
The original set (76025) retailed for $19.99 USD. The figure's individual value now exceeds the original price of the entire set.
Compatible Sets
76025: Green Lantern vs. Sinestro (2015).
Character Background
Based on the DC Comics 'Forever Evil' and 'Blackest Night' arcs where Batman briefly dons a Sinestro Corps power ring to combat the Green Lantern or other threats using fear.
Design Notes
Significant for being one of the first 'Elseworlds' or specialized comic-run Batman variants LEGO produced for wide retail rather than convention exclusives.
Similar Minifigures
sh145 Sinestro, sh143 Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), and the various Batman variants from the 2015-2016 Justice League waves.
Collectibility
High. Batman 'sub-variant' collectors consider this a core piece of a complete collection. It bridges the gap between standard Batman figures and the Lantern Corps lore.
History
Part of the 2015 'Green Lantern' centric wave which fans had requested for years. It marked a shift in LEGO DC sets toward deeper comic book lore rather than just movie tie-ins.
Interesting Facts
The eyes on the headpiece are specifically colored yellow to indicate the influence of the Yellow Power Ring, unlike the standard white eyes of most LEGO Batmen.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside Sinestro (sh145) to showcase the Sinestro Corps duo, preferably on a dark or cosmic-themed baseplate with trans-yellow 'power' elements.
Modification Potential
Excellent for Lantern Corps MOCs. The torso/legs are often used by customizers to create other members of the Sinestro Corps (like Arkillo).
Overall Assessment
An essential figure for DC fans. The contrast of the yellow on black provides one of the most visually striking Batman designs in the LEGO portfolio. Highly recommended as a mid-tier investment.
