Master Lego Craftsman Spends A Year Building Batman's Arkham Asylum
We've all become intimately familiar with Gotham's home for the criminally insane thanks to the Arkham series of video games, but we don't have anything on Lego builder Thorsten Bonsch, who spent a year building the asylum with Lego bricks.
You can check out a full gallery of photos of the impressive structure on Bonsch's Flickr gallery. For a deeper look at the creation, however, Bonsch documented the whole endeavor and put it all in a book, which you download and check out for free here.
There are small details all over the piece, including both villain and hero cameos like Batman (obviously) and Poison Ivy and Clayface. There's a lot more to the whole piece than would appear at a first quick glance, and it's all very impressive.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
