A one-of-a-kind take on the Batmobile

Posted by MC on 7th Jan 2022

There are a few flying Batmobiles, but this one, looking more like a cross between a giant bug and a spaceship, is definitely one that stands out on its own. The large red windshield is happily translucent, a very nice touch by Eaglemoss, so one can actually see inside the thing, and there is a tiny bit of texture/sparkle/something added to the vehicles paint, so all that solid black has *some* life to it. The tires look great angled mostly horizontally, a la a certain flying Delorean time machine, though detaching the car from the plastic support structure, should one want to, is more of an ordeal than it should be. The fold-out wings are plastic and thusly most fragile, but Eaglemoss did a fantastic job of recreating Frank Quitely's/Grant Morrison's design, and it really does look like it's hurtling through the air. This one looks so different than what one thinks about as a "Batmobile", and I keep going back to enjoy the look of this particular model.
