5004590 - Bat-Pod (Limited Edition Batman Bat-Pod Competition June 2015)

[jaisonline]

So who's gonna reverse this for us to build? It looks totally cool. 

"AC Pin has posted a photo on his Flickr photostream showing an upcoming contest for VIP members in the US and Canada, who will be able to enter a prize draw to win one of 750 limited edition Bat-Pods. These are intended to be displayed in scale with 76023 The Tumbler and will of course appeal to fans of the Dark Knight trilogy.

Entry will be open for the whole of June and it appears that one entry is allowed each day, so you will have a maximum of thirty chances to win. To enter all you will need do is make a DC Super Heroes purchase or send an email with your name, VIP number and the word 'Bat-Pod' in the subject line to [email protected]. The winners will be announced in mid-July."

I about wet myself when I saw this.  I'll be entering every day in the hopes on winning one of these bad boys.  Or, I might have to break down and buy it on the secondary market.  It's just too cool.  Of course my luck would be they eventually release this normally for sale.

[weakside]

Cool.  1 of 750 is pretty limited ($$$) for the US/CAN market.  Maybe it'll be in a nice looking box too.  Nice display piece beside the new Tumbler...maybe a creative moc-er will integrate the 2 vehicles somehow.

Funny because I remember finding this earlier.

Anyway, I presume those tires are the same from the UCS Tumbler. Radical mini vehicle all the same.

​those tires look way smaller than the Tumbler tires.

[Dkc]

I guess whoever in our investor community that does win one of the batpod, maybe he can scan and share the building instruction with the rest of us?

​He meant from the official bat-pod, not the picture he posted.

[jaisonline]

​those tires look way smaller than the Tumbler tires.

​the official tires look to be about 8 studs wide, which also looks close to the tumbler tires (?).

 

no matter what the tires will be tough to come by for those looking to reproduce this.

[binici]

Cool, I just sent my entry! Would be cool to win!

[legogregors]

Does anyone happen to know how to update your birthday associated with the VIP number?  Mine is wrong and since it is a required field for the free entry I wanted to make sure it was correct.  It seems like a locked field along with gender.

​Login to your VIP account on S@H and click the little cog/gear next to VIP username. It'll load up your profile where you can lie about your age, err fix, on your Date of Birth.

[marcandre]

Wonder what the first one on ebay goes for? I'll guess over $500

​Well... only one way to find out... enter and win!

[citymorgue]

I hope I win this as well.  And I want to keep mine sealed and then get the instructions and just bricklink the set together.

​They are the same exact tires as the Tumbler.  It's in the same scale as well.  So since it appears it won't be coming with a minifig, it looks like the most expensive part will be the tires themselves.  Nothing else looks too rare.

​Thanks, I can click on the cog which pops up Your Account Page/Edit Profile but then I can only update country and email.  I don't see an option to update DOB or gender.

Sorry, ​I see what you're saying. I didn't realize those fields were not editable .. well, if you just put the one that matches the VIP account in the email you should be good. Otherwise you'll have to call them up and get them to change it over the phone.
