The haphazard architecture of Apocalypseburg was designed to suggest that the characters have repurposed the remnants and rubble of their destroyed town, Bricksburg.

EMMET Still as positive and perky as ever, Emmet continues to believe that “Everything is How to lift the model Awesome!” despite living in the most ‘heckish’ place imaginable: ‘Apocalypse- burg’. Oblivious to the hardships of resid- ing in this crumbling, dystopian wasteland, Emmet loves to start his day with a trip through town to pick-up his coff ee order (one black and one with a touch of cream and 25 sugars) for Lucy and himself. Inca- pable of mustering a single grim thought, Emmet dreams of ‘Rebuilding the Future’ and has secretly built the perfect home for his ‘special’ best friend!

LUCY Once a rebel fi ghting for a noble cause, Lucy’s only mission now is fi ghting to sur- vive! After enduring countless attacks from the DUPLO® Aliens, Lucy is now hardened and battle-ready. Keeping lookout from her surveillance tower on the torch of a crum- bling Statue of Liberty, Lucy spends her time narrating her own grim thoughts while awaiting the next onslaught from those re- lentlessly greedy DUPLO invaders! Despite her dark and brooding demeanour, she still cares deeply about Emmet, but she is beginning to question whether he is tough enough to survive these troubling times.

BATMAN ™ Self-presumed leader of ‘Apocalypseburg’, Batman has no problem fi tting into this darker, grittier world that now surrounds him! Kitted out in his custom-forged Battle armour, he arrogantly proclaims ‘This apocalypse looks good on me!’ Perched above his purpose-built bat-bunker, Batman™ directs the ‘battle ’ to attack. When they once again roll back defeated, he is there to ultimately swoop in and save the day! “You’re Welcome!”
