Movie Batman Tumbler Batmobile

That looks like a perfect fit! Minimates don't seem to look out of place on this set either. Now if only we had a movie Batman to go with it :angry:

Jatta, how much does this cost? I take it this is a Target exclusive? Can you post a pic or a link of it in the box? Thanks much!

I just got back from my local Target and they didn't have it that I could see. But I also did go to Walmart and saw this: http://cgi.ebay.ca/Batman-Dark-Knight-SHIF...0QQcmdZViewItem

That looked like it could work as far as fitting a Mate inside. But in my opinion, the car looked too big to display with a Mate hanging outside of it. But soem of you may not think so I figured I'd share!

The new Lego "Tumbler" batmobile is also pretty cool. I bet it might not be too hard to modify the kit for minimates.

I've seen it at Toys R Us & Walmart

I picked this set up at Walmart for $45 and the Tumbler is a perfect fit. It is almost like it was designed for minimates and not Legos. The only modification required is the removal of the steering wheel (which should have been more like helicopter controls, but who cares). Then Batman fits with his hood on as long as you bend his knees slightly. This was a very good purchase.

Oh, and I will post pics as soon as I can. ;)

I got one this weekend at a local Target. All I can say, is this thing was MEANT for minimates. By comparison a 3.75-4 inch figure looms over this thing The minimate size is perfect for it.

I will definitely display this in my batcave display, along with the 1:50 scale batcycle from hot wheels.

Now to find a giant penny.... :D

I agree, Fo, the Sports Coupe looked too big for Minimates to me too.

MOC - Any comparison pics of the 1:50 scale batcycle?

Thanks for the pics, MOC!

This may be just the alchohol talking, but the red (or orange) and white on the batcycle just seems wrong. What is this cycle from? The Batman TV show from the 60s? Anyone know? I don't recognize it from the comics.

I'm not big on the sidecar either (although Sidecars are one of my favorite drinks!). Is the sidecar removeable?

I think I will pass on this cycle even though it matches perfectly size-wise.

Correct you are, the bike is from the batman tv show.

While I wasn't crazy about the colors either...it just fits soooo well with minimate size i absolutely could not pass it up.

the side car IS removable... 2 screws in the bottom of the bike. I haven't taken it off

yet, but feel I will before too long.

if you ever think about making a bat cave dio...I highly recommend it, even it isnt perfect. It is a good bat fit!

more detailed pics to come

Did anybody else notice the handlebars in the sidecar? Maybe it has the ability to split and Robin can have his own mini-batcycle when he needs it...although if they attached it to the toy with screws it's not really meant for it to be separated. Which kinda sucks...

Can someone explain the penny and t-rex to me, and how they relate to Batman? Also, Matt, just curious, what state to you live in that doesn't have a Target?
