Lego enthusiast and Batman superfan Paul Hetherington, a.k.a. Brickbaron, joins the ranks of our favorite genre-themed Lego masterminds (like this rogues gallery of horror movie villains we spotted Monday) thanks to this humongous diorama inspired by The Joker's Funhouse in Lego Batman and other Batman video games. Photo: Carlyle Livingston via Flickr Not only does it feature three separate levels depicting Batman & Robin battling villains, henchmen and monsters, the set-pieces are also enhanced with incredible motion, smoke and lighting effects (Poison Ivy's "pets" are particularly sick).
