That thing is huge, and awesome. Is it mostly diecast? Always liked this version of the Batmobile best.

After seeing yours, I had to see how much they cost. Actually it didn't shock me as much as I thought it would. I imagine shipping wasn't cheap.

Actually the shipping was not that much,there is a few storefront dealers for sideshow close to me.it was the conversion from us to can dollars that was abit.doesn't matter i am a huge batman fan and an even bigger fan of a few of the batmobiles.sometime in the spring of next year they are releasing the george barris 1966 tv batmobile in 1:6 scale and oh yea i started saving for that already...that is my all time favorite batmobile

The George Barris batmobile was always my favorite, probably because I was 13, and I was probably in the target demographic, even though I wouldn't have known what that was. I was in 7th grade, and a couple of the kids moms were cutting batman logos out of felt. Then they glued to a round piece of felt, and added a safety pin, so you could attach it to your shirt or jacket. I think they sold for 50₵. If you bought one it meant you were really cool, and expect all of the girls to swoon over you. Wrong!

Please post something about the new batmobile when it's available.

I love the working lights, but wish they would have backlit the gauges on the dash too.
