Re: The Dark Knight: 1/6th scale Batmobile Collectible (relaunch)

The only place for it is a coffee table or shelves if you happen to have them really strong and really deep.

I'm debating getting this but I have zero idea where I could put it. Any ideas from those who have it?

Don't think just buy!!

So many salty tears.

Where? I've been going back page after page (20 posts per page) and only saw like one or two small posts.

Is this thing heavy? Do you guys think they'll add anything to this like maybe modify the tumbler to allow inserting the Batpod into it like how it bolts out in TDK?

Anyone in The UK wanting the tumbler its gone on pre-order at whysoseriousonline for £384.99 with free next day shipping,
You only have to put down £50 deposit & the balance can be paid in full when its in stock or 3 monthly instalments of £111.66 i would imagine 3 months before its due in stock. Very cool deal as its not taking all funds in one go so more figures can be bought in the meantime

time to roll out the old as it just became new

This is what you start up with

This model of coffee table is unfortunately already discontinued in Canada. They still have the dining table which is similar and could be modified for an even bigger display case... (I picked up the table from the as is section for cheap already but usually its $300 incl 4 chairs) Well keep an eye for used as I found them being offered on craigslist quite often though many of them the glass top tend to be scratched up
So Figurefreak started lowering the magazine shelf which is as simple as cutting 4 measured cutouts into the legs with a dremel or similar tool
Added some kind of metal sheet on top of the shelf and closed up the sides with acrylic panels and finished if with a set of Ikea Dioder LED strip lights and VOILA... what a beauty!

I started mine but have yet to finish my MDF cover and acrylic sides. I am using HomeDepot insulation foam tape to close up most of the gaps to make it dustproof

I dunno man ..... maybe two of these side by side
but seriously I am thinking of going back to my old setup and just have both flank my wall mounted TV but I got so much more crap now so the difficult part is hide everything in the cabinets and then going back into case making again.........

Just looked over your display

So the case that fits this beast is- Tumbler Case 33"(W) x 26"(D) x 13"(H) ?

Do you sell them now? I may be interested to see what you do for both Batmobiles, send me a PM

Re: The Dark Knight: 1/6th scale Batmobile Collectible (relaunch)

something along this line is likely my only choice but it certainly would look kickass if I manage to cleanup. My coffee table is not open for debate as my MF won't fit anywhere else
As for making cases I likely get back into it in spring when temp climb back up and I won't die working in the garage.. have a few orders for tumbler cases already lined up too

IF I had the space I would seriously consider two coffee tables get bat pod and the "Bat" in as well and maybe even the classic Batwing but yeah gotto slide over the custom sofa big time to get around the table will be good exercise
