Here's one that I intend to redo one day, but it's pretty good as it is now. (I think so anyway ) I just know I can do better. This was one of those quickee weekend builds. I added a B&R from the Polar Lights kit.












The lack of dash detail is the reason I want to re-build. The decals are my designs.

LACK of dash detail? Looks pretty good from here.

I love that Batman has a blender in the back seat.

Thanks Terry. I just didn't add much to it. No guages or anything, just some quickee paint here and there.

Danno- It does kinda look like a blender dunt-it? I think it's actually supposed to be a beaker warmer or some such. Anyway that's how I have it worked out in my head and it's fragile so let's not mess with it okay?

I hear you Jacen ... still ... I just can't get the Jimmy Buffet refrains out of my mind ...


"Wastin' away again in the Batmobile
Searching for that rascal Joker of Crime
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know Catwoman is really in her prime."



Apologies, Jimmy.

Okay ...this brings up two very important questions...#1 What are you on? #B Why won't you share!

So what is that? A kit? Scratchbuilt?

So what is that? A kit? Scratchbuilt?

That was a metal kit, made by Polar Lights/Johnny Lightning. It's actually about ten years old at this point. I decided to clean it up and add the figures from the new 1966 Batmobile kit.

The design is Cadillac based.

Never seen this version..

[Dirkpitt289]

I've never seen this one in kit forum. I like it

Very cool. That giant tailfin is an attention grabber for sure.

Really nice model. That thing is a warmer /magnetic stirrer. They are typical laboratory equipment. I added a magnetic stirrer to my paint booth.

Thank you Greg. Both for the compliment and for clearing up what the doohickey is.

So Batman and Robin can stir their margaritas magnetically? Kewl.

What is the blue/green board with wavy marks on it with a piece broken off, it’s in the middle of the bench with what looks like a thick yellow ruler sat on top of it suppose to represent? I just can’t figure it out.

I think it was supposed to be a map or some such with a portion missing.

I think this is great. A really good job.
