Love this view:

How big of a faux pax would it be to pose the upcoming Batman returns with this batmobile? I ain't plucking down 300+ bones for the original.

There's virtually no difference between the two vehicles.

I'm relatively new to these boards, but I've been collecting for years. I bought the HT '89 Batmobile when it first came out and love it. Unfortunately, I had to put it and my other HT Bat-vehicles away in storage because of space constraints and constantly having to dust them was so time consuming.

I really miss my '89 though. Especially with the new HT Returns Batman coming out, I've really wanted to take that baby back out again.

How do you guys display your '89 Batmobile? I need some kind of case to put it in to keep the dust out. I don't have the skills to construct my own acrylic case. Do any of you guys know where I could find one, or have any other good ideas?

Custom acrylic display case with black base from sora shop in germany. The best ratio quality / price i've found.

I Know this vidéo. I really don't understand this guy. Maybe he got a replacement and was "asked" to destroy it but honestly i find this scandalous. When i think that some of us dream to get it and maybe can't afford it, it makes me sad...
Really don't understand... It make me think to these fortunate guys who destroy their Lamborghini with a hamer because they are not happy with it anymore...
We're living in a strange world...

I don't see a problem with that at all. If I had the Batmobile I'd do the exact same as I'm getting the upcoming Keaton Batman but missed the DX09. The vehicle is the same as far as I know. There were some features used in Batman Returns not seen in the first film but other than that they look the same.

The bigger question to me is how big of a faux paux it would be to display the Batman Returns Batman with a DX08 (don't have it yet but would like to hunt one down). I feel like I want a Nicholson Joker to go with my Keaton Batman. I know there are differences in the suits from the two films but meh I might do it anyways.

Returns Batmobile had black wheels. Other than that, I don't think there was much difference.

I plan on displaying my Returns Batman with '89 mime Joker.

Those rims look so much better black, keep trying to find time to do the same thing hopefully this year

They ship that bad boy to the US reasonably?

Mime Joker? Yeah, haven't taken mine out yet either.

 

[Rondesmo]

Thank you guys!

Concerning the shipping for us i can't tell. It's cheap for europe but it's big so the sing is maybe not the same for America... You should ask them by mail.

Did you have them custom build it?

 

[Rondesmo]

I hope i've understood the question.
Yes i've built it. I've received the panels of acrylic in kit. You just have to screw them together. It's very easy.

Oh I get it. You just tell them the dimensions you are looking for and they send you the panels, then?

 

[Rondesmo]

Exactly, for example i asked a custom acrylic case of 110 cm width, 50 cm deep and 40 cm height and added a black base.
I received all the panels already prepared for screw and i assembled them together. That's all.

Awesome. I'll have to check with them about shipping to the US. Probably will be too expensive to justify it. If so, I can hopefully find an outfit more local that offers a similar service. Thanks for the info! Your Batmobile looks great.
