This may not be the forum to ask, but, does anyone know if the new batmobile from the new movie is being produced as a model? That is one cool looking vehicle!

I had the same question after seeing the new movie last night. Big Smile [:D]

I used to have the AMT/ERTL Batmobile from the first movie (with Michael Keeton). I messed up the paint job and tried to remove the paint with enamel thinner and then got frustrated and tossed the kit. This was more than ten years ago, and I didn't know any better. Sad [:(]

I'll probably pick up another one. I'd also like to make the Batmobile from the '60s TV show that I saw so much on daytime TV when I was growing up in the '80s.

I found a model of the new one, but it's already assembled and very expenseive:

Or you could just improvise it the way the designers did:
