If you haven't played LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham yet, you don't know what a crazy ride you're missing. If you have played it, well, let's be honest... There's no way you've gotten to 100% yet. It's just impossible, in a game of this size, to complete it fast. There are over 150 playable Minifigures in LEGO Batman 3, all of them plucked from DC Comics history and continuity. It goes without saying that there are plenty of obscure characters in that enormous catalog, but there are some longtime fan-favorites as well. Here are ten of the most desired DC characters that you'll want to play as, and what you have to do in the game to get them. Getting your virtual hands on the Atom is a big deal in LEGO Batman 3. Throughout the Free Play hubs and worlds, you'll run across elaborate rat-maze contraptions that only someone very small can access. Don't bother trying to use Brainiac's shrink ray to shrink down another character to enter the maze; the effects of that gun only last for a few seconds.
You can always unlock the "Mini Characters" Red Brick, which turns all of your characters that small, but it's a pain to go back and forth to the Extras menu just to turn it on, and then do the thing, and then go back to turn it off, etc. The easiest and quickest way to access those small areas is with the Atom, who can shrink at will. The Atom can be acquired during the level "The Big Grapple," but only in Free Play mode. After escaping the big green dome bubble with Plastic Man, go around to the open area between Green Lantern (who's still being mind controlled by Brainiac) and the dome. Destroy the three silver items there and then build with your brand new LEGO bricks. This triggers a grappling hook to the left, so go to it and grapple and it creates a bunch of green toxic goop all over the floor. It also creates a hovering cleanup vehicle, which you should use to mop up the goop. Next, go park your hovering vacuum car over the contraption you built a minute ago with those exploded silver pieces.
Two levers pop up; pull them and there it is: the Atom character token. In the Watchtower, go to the Trophy Room. Fly up to the platform on the right side of the room. Use Brainiac to shrink the statues, and shazam. There's Black Adam's token. Deathstroke can be found in the "Big Trouble in Little Gotham" level, and is easy to get regardless of whether you're in Story Mode or Free Play. In the second area, where Flash and Joker team up to fight bad guys at Joker's carnival, look for five fireworks spinners. Use a grappling hook to pull on each one, and after they've all gone off, you're rewarded with Deathstroke's character token. From the Hall of Justice hub, jump down the big hole into the Hall of Doom area. Outside the Hall of Doom is a swamp area where you'll find a long row of mushrooms growing. Look for the mushroom that has a circular, glowing gate around it. That's right: it's a race. Just follow the gates and jump on each mushroom in turn, and you'll get Doomsday's token as your reward.
You'll want to have plenty of coins saved up for Doomsday; at 1,250,000 coins, he's one of the most expensive characters in the game. As long as you're at the Hall of Doom, you might as well go ahead and get... Go inside the Hall of Doom and work your way through the various character quests until you get to one called "Five Studs Please," in which Ms. Quinn herself gives you a mission. After you've spoken to her, several patients will appear inside the Hall of Doom. Go and speak to each one in turn, and then have them follow you to Harley. She'll give you her character token as your reward. Kilowog can be found as you enter the big temple in the "Need for Greed" level. Pull down the big pillar and then look for a birds nest with 3 eggs inside. Destroy the eggs and then destroy the big bird that appears. Claim Kilowog as your prize (if you can get past the baby bird murderer guilt). While Free Playing in the London part of the "Europe Against It" level, look for the wrecking ball near the bus.
Have Brainiac shoot his blaster at the wrecking ball, and it will grow bigger. That's all you have to do. The wrecking ball falls on its own onto a boat, which dispenses Lobo's token. In the "Space Station Infestation" level, fly up and look on the right of the armory. There's a missile here that Brainiac can shrink. Destroy the crate that appears and then fly back up to nab the character token for Reverse Flash. While you're in this level, you can also get... During the Firefly boss fight, go around to the left of the spot where you started in this area. Look for a blue grate above you and use a power suit equipped with magnetic control to open the grate. Switch to a flying character (or suit) and soar up into the grate to get John Stewart's token. Swamp Thing is one of the characters that comes in more than one flavor. You have your original Swamp Thing, and then there's the New 52's version of Swamp Thing. Let's grab them both. The fourth character quest that becomes available in the Hall of Doom is called "The Garden of Love."
It involves going outside and helping Poison Ivy out by putting out some fires. Have her follow you all the way around to the left of the building and Swamp Thing will be waiting for her there. He'll give you his own token when you hand her over. The New 52 Swamp Thing is found on the Orange Lantern homeworld, Odym. Leave the main village and look for a collection of small huts. Destroy the crates there, then blow up the sliver lock that appears. Go inside the hut and you've got the token.

Checklists, Achievements & Trophies Characters and Suits (Handheld) Most characters possess at least one ability that adds to their value. The more abilities that a character has, the more valuable that character is during Free Play and hub explorations.
Here’s a quick rundown of all of the different abilities that characters can possess: Solomon Grundy and Swamp Thing can burrow into special swampy spots and discover useful objects that are buried deep underground. Wonder Woman automatically uses her bracelets to deflect incoming attacks, preventing damage. She can also use her bracelets to activate shield deflect pads and redirect lasers, potentially destroying nearby gold objects. Other characters, such as Lanterns, can raise energy shields to deflect attacks and prevent damage as well. Many characters can dig in suspicious mounds of dirt, discovering valuable items or objects. Alfred, Cheetah, and most Lantern characters can dig. Aquaman and Killer Croc can dive underwater and explore the depths, as can Batman and Robin once they find their Scuba/Dive Suits. Certain acrobatic characters, such as Robin, can jump a second time in midair. This helps them reach greater heights. Batman and Cyborg are insulated against electricity while wearing their Electricity Suits.
They can drain the charge from one electric panel and deposit the charge into another, for a variety of effects. and Black Adam are also naturally insulated from electricity and can instantly power any electric panel with their electricity beams. Batman can destroy silver LEGO objects with explosive attacks fired from his Power Suit. Other characters, like Cyborg and The Joker, have Demolition Suits that accomplish the same feat. Some characters, like Superman and The Flash, are able to build objects out of hopping LEGO bricks much faster than others. This ability can be given to any hero by unlocking and purchasing the Fast Build Red Brick. Some characters are immune to fire, such as Superman. Others have special items that let them walk through fire, like Alfred’s serving tray. Some characters can use Flash-Build pads to swiftly build larger objects out of other objects in the vicinity. Many characters possess the freeing ability to fly about and hover in midair.
It makes exploring much easier! Characters that can spray water (like Aquaman) can put out LEGO fires. Characters with super-breath (like Superman) and characters that use a freeze cannon (like Batman does while wearing his Arctic Suit) can also put out fires, and they can immobilize enemies and freeze rushing water as well, for a variety of benefits. Batman and other characters can glide through the air, making a long, slow descent to cross long gaps and reach remote locations. Characters that can wear Hazard Suits, such as Robin and Lex Luthor, can walk right through toxic goo without suffering any harm. Other characters are also naturally immune to goo, such as Superman and Killer Croc. Several characters can grapple and pull on orange hooks, for a variety of benefits. Some characters, like Martian Manhunter and Plastic Man, can change their shape to slip through special hatches and reach new areas. Other characters, like Beast Boy and the Atom, can also travel through these hatches by shape-shifting or by shrinking themselves down.
Robin and The Joker’s Illumination Suits let them light up pitch-dark areas, discovering hidden items and objects. Use a charging station to fill the Illumination Suit full of power, then conserve it for when you need it. Invincible characters such as Superman cannot be harmed. Only Lantern characters, such as Green Lantern and Star Sapphire, can activate Lantern pads and construct useful objects through the power of their rings. Lanterns can also fire a laser from their rings, but it has no effect on gold LEGO objects. Many characters, such as Superman and Cyborg, posses these powerful ranged attacks, which can overheat and destroy gold LEGO objects, and also cut shapes out of gold LEGO walls. Certain characters are able to manipulate blue magnetic LEGO objects, for a variety of benefits. Robin and Cyborg can do this while wearing their Magnet Suits. Characters such as Brainiac and Martian Manhunter can control the minds of the weak-willed. Use their powers of mind control to force other characters to do your bidding.

Many strong characters, including Superman and Solomon Grundy, automatically recover health hearts over time. Brainiac can miniaturize black LEGO objects with his high-tech shrink ray. The Atom can shrink himself down at will to enter and explore tight spaces more easily. A handful of characters can use sonar to shatter glass LEGO objects. Batman and Cyborg can do this while wearing their Sonar Suits. Characters that have a Sphere Suit (like Robin) can curl into a ball and activate sphere sockets. Green Lantern can also do this by surrounding himself in a sphere construct.
Batman can become stealthy and slip past security cameras through the use of his Sensor Suit. Other characters, like Cyborg and Lex Luthor, can use Stealth Suits for a similar benefit. Lex Luthor and The Joker can use their Decoy Suits to summon lowly minions that aid them in battle. Lex calls for formidable Lexbots, while The Joker whips out his trademark Joker teeth. Many characters can use super senses to detect hidden items or objects in the environment. Batman can do this while wearing his Sensor Suit, while other characters can do this at any time, such as Martian Manhunter. Characters with this ability often also possess X-ray vision. This passive ability causes characters like The Flash to move and attack much faster than normal. Characters with this ability can activate treadmills to power objects through kinetic energy. Large characters, like Killer Croc and Solomon Grundy, possess super-strength. This lets them smash through cracked walls and rip apart objects that have green handles.
The Giant Suit gives other characters super-strength, including Cyborg and Lex Luthor, while certain normal-sized characters also possesses super-strength (like Superman). Batman, Robin, Cyborg, Lex Luthor, and The Joker can all wear high-tech gadget suits that give them access to new abilities. These characters can change suits at any time to adapt to different situations. See the previous “Unlocking Suits” section for details. Characters with a Techno Suit (like Robin and Lex Luthor) can hack techno panels. These characters can also use a remote controlled Toy Wonder to activate Toy Wonder panels. Some tech-savvy characters can hack techno panels without the aid of a Techno Suit (such as Martian Manhunter or Brainiac), but these characters can’t call upon a Toy Wonder to activate Toy Wonder panels. Some characters can transform, such as Martian Manhunter to Martian Manhunter (True Form) and Superman to Clark Kent. Robin can toss his twirl pole into wall sockets and then flip from his pole like an acrobat to reach special areas.
