A new variation of LEGO Batman is already panicking collectors: a Jokerized Batman exclusive, still unpublished in classic sets, has just appeared in advance on the cover of a DK book put on shelves in Taiwan. Based on images shared by the content creator DuckBricksthis hybrid minifigure mixes the armor of the Dark Knight and the toxic colors of the Joker.
This very special Batman will accompany the children’s book LEGO DC Batman Adventures in Gotham Citysign D.K. and expected for the summer of 2026. Key element for fans of LEGO DC : the figurine is announced as completely exclusive to the book, which potentially makes it the most sought-after piece of this wave. We detail what the leak shows, what this Jokerized Batman really looks like and how to secure your copy in France.
LEGO Batman Jokerized 2026: what does this leak from Taiwan reveal?
Spotted in advance on Taiwanese shelves, the book LEGO DC Batman Adventures in Gotham City poster on cover one Jokerized Batman in a transparent blister. Officially, DK only mentioned an “exclusive Batman minifigure”, without a definitive visual. The gray replacement cover still visible on Amazon confirms that this Jokerized version was not supposed to be shown so early.
The design is clearly inspired by the range Jokerized of McFarlane Toyswhich applies the Joker’s aesthetic to other DC heroes, but without copying a specific figure. The team LEGO Super Heroes has designed an original Batman here, with three major new pieces: a two-tone cowl molded in bright green and light yellow rather than black and white, a new bright green cape and a torso entirely reprinted in this toxic color code.
Small downside for purists, the arms and legs remain united, without impression. Visually, the figure already works well, but customizers immediately see it as a perfect basis to go further.
What is this Jokerized Batman really worth to LEGO DC fans and customizers?
On a shelf next to a classic gray and black Batman, this Jokerized Batman decide immediately. The green and yellow tones accentuate the unstable side of the character, while retaining the iconic silhouette of the Dark Knight. For a LEGO DC collection focused on 2026, this is typically the variant that catches the eye among the Batmobiles and more sober outfits.
On the custom side, BrickFanatics already suggests a simple improvement: replace the plain legs with purple and green dual mold legs already used on three minifigures Hulk released between 2022 and 2024. These parts are easy to find on the secondary market and add green “boots” which enhance the Jokerized effect. By combining this base with a few purple accessories or an alternative Joker face, fans will be able to create a totally corrupted Batman, almost worthy of the collector’s ranges.
This exclusivity follows in the footsteps of previous Batman DK books, such as Yellow Lantern Batman, Pirate Batman Or Batman tartanlong remained reserved for these works and always appreciated by collectors, without being inaccessible price-wise.
When will the LEGO Batman book and Jokerized minifigure be released, and at what price?
LEGO DC Batman Adventures in Gotham City has 64 pages and will be released in Europe, including France, on July 2, 2026. For pre-order, the book is priced around €15.68 on Amazon France, for a recommended price of around €15.99. In the United Kingdom, it costs 12.99 pounds sterling, or around €15 at the current rate. An American edition will follow a few weeks later.
Be careful, however, to choose the right version. Only the so-called “Book and Toy” edition, clearly illustrated with the blister pack on the cover, includes the exclusive minifigure. The digital versions or certain library editions do not offer figurines. At this stage, no announcement suggests that this Batman Jokerized will be reissued in a set, which reinforces the interest of the pre-order for fans of LEGO Batman and Jokerized variants.
