Batman: Arkham City Harley Head Locations

Seek out and destroy her inflated heads in the Steel Mill.

The so-called Harley Heads are more breakable objects that you have to destroy in Batman: Arkham City. Unlike the Tyger Security Cameras and Joker Balloons though, they are fortunately found only in the Sionis Steel Mill, so you will not have to spend time searching and gliding over multiple districts.

These collectibles appear as Harley Quinn mannequins with inflated heads. They are pretty hard to miss. They also contain voice boxes that you can activate to listen to her dialogues. That, however, will not get you the collectible.

To destroy a Harley Head, you have to aim a Remote Electrical Charge at her head. That is the only way to advance your Riddler Challenge. Speaking of which, destroying three heads amounts to one riddle. Most players began to wonder why their challenge count was the same after destroying the first head.

FYI

Batarangs and Glue Grenades do not work against Harley Heads.

Where to find all Harley Heads in Batman: Arkham City?

There are a total of 12 Harley Heads (for four Riddler Challenges) to destroy in the Steel Mill which contains both the Joker’s and Harley’s hideout. The latter is exclusive to her Revenge DLC though.

TIP

You may encounter a glitch where you destroy a Harly Head and it still shows up on the map as undestroyed. To solve this, either quit the game and come back later or progress further through the story.

You will gain access to the Steel Mill early on as part of the main storyline. However, you will not be able to explore every area inside until the end of the game. We, hence, recommend waiting until you have beat the game before going there to get all of its collectibles.

That being said, there are several ways to get inside the Steel Mill depending on where you are in the story. Once you beat the main story, your only way inside will be through the flaming, broken roof.
