I feel like this is more iconic than the Tumbler, though, right? When you think of what Batman drives, I imagine this is what many AFOLs picture. 2 Quote

IMO as Batmobiles go... This may be the most iconic,Tumbler very memorable also. If they do a USC style of the classic tv version would make nice display of all three. Blurry but Cool looking joker miifig also. General vibe I get these days is this may be just too big to buy, stash, wait, sell, yay. In for 1. I May need to source a Tumbler for personal now:) I Hope for the hoarders of tumbler that more folks feel the same, that these pair well. Quote
cuttingcorners47 Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Looks cool. Looks like Cockpit roof slides forward just like in the movie. Joker is wearing that hat and maybe holding a cane too just like jack nicholson did. Duel front hood Machine guns seem to pop up from secret compartments. I hope it has side mounted grappling hooks to latch onto things going around tight turns in the city. Quote

nolanfan34 Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Looks cool. I love the cowl/cape combo, wonder if they'll keep it exclusive to this figure. Quote
waddamon Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I have not been paying attention, is this new? I'll put this where my tumbler used to be. Quote
KShine Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I think that the hard cape looks idiotic. Quote
BrickLegacy Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I think that the hard cape looks idiotic.I couldn’t disagree more. I like it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 3 Quote
fuzzy_bricks Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I love this for nostalgia alone. This was one of the first movies I remember going to and while it may seem a little goofy now, but for a seven year old it was pure magic. From when he first drops in with his cape spread to when flies the Batwing/Batjet/Batwhatever in front of the moon to make a bat symbol this movie was/is awesome. You ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight? 9 hours ago, nolanfan34 said: Looks cool. I love the cowl/cape combo, wonder if they'll keep it exclusive to this figure. I love the cape. I think there is a CMF line coming of DC characters and there may another Batman with this cape in that line. I won't say this be a day one purchase since discounts will inevitably happen, but a cool promo could certainly push me over the edge. 1 Quote

I can't remember where, but I believe I've heard about a mini version of this. Maybe saw a picture somewhere? Anyway, I could definitely see that being a GWP at launch. Quote
exracer327 Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 Promotional 1 : 40433 - 1989 Batmobile - Limited Edition - Includes pcs TBA - GWP? (https://jedijacpenguin.com/everythingweknowaboutLEGO2019.htm) Seems kind of large for a GWP, but I found it interesting. Anyone know how reliable the above website is? 1 Quote
KShine Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 Clearly, many people are loving the cape - I just associate it with the many non lego figures I have picked out of purchased lots over the years. So many of them use hard plastic capes instead of the cloth/fabric ones that LEGO uses - so I associate the cloth/fabric material being a higher quality product. I mean, cloth just makes sense for a cape. Yes, they can age terribly if played with, and the spongy ones are absolutely awful - but given a choice. Quote

If you think back to the 89 Batman movie, that “cape” was more of a plastic thing that an actual piece of cloth. 2 Quote
Belac Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 This set sure hits a lot of the right notes, Unless I'm derailed by the price tag I'll prob get this early. Here's hoping for a cool promo. I certainly wouldn't want all capes to be this rigid plastic, but it does look really good for a display set like this. 13 hours ago, fuzzy_bricks said: I think there is a CMF line coming of DC characters and there may another Batman with this cape in that line.

KShine Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 Someone out there once thought that a sticker sheet was a great option for a set as well (it allows for so many specialized details - no need to use the same generic printed pieces anymore) - Just saying. Quote
mrsl8r Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I like the gargoyles on the minfig stand (from the end of the movie), very cool detail. I'm not even a big Batman fan, but I think this set is awesome. From an investment standpoint I don't know that I'd get too many, but I'm in for one for a personal build (once I can catch a good deal/promo on it). Quote
jimmajenga Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 I was surprised to see that there were rumours of another big batmobile… but this looks incredible! Definitely need one! Quote
