Remember those Johnny Lightning 1:24 pre-painted diecast comic book Batmobile kits from 15-20 years ago?

[Brian Austin]

I didn't think much of these two kits when they came out, but they might be fun for kitbashing.

Have any of you built these?

I was reminded of them by my last visit to my local hobby shop a few weeks ago.  They have the '60s version, unbuilt but reportedly missing one windshield. 

 

1950's comic book version.  Note the chassis appears to have been copied off the Revell-Monogram 1959 Cadillac!

1960's comic book version.  What do you suppose this chassis is from?

And then I was just reminded of the Polar Lights all-plastic 1960s Batmobile in1:25 scale.
