Spin Master To Release Official Limited Edition 1989 Batmobile RC
Michael Keaton's pulling back on the Batsuit for the upcoming The Flash movie, and to add to all that excitement, Spin Master's got a cool new collectors toy in the works - the official 1989 Batmobile RC.
Spin Master Limited Edition 1989 Batmobile RC is available to pre-order on Amazon for $179.99.
Let's Talk Batmobile
This slick little remote control car is a spot-on replica of the 1989 Batmobile from the film, jam-packed with some great features. It's got workable headlights, pop-up illuminating guns, an auto-opening canopy and even a water-activated smoke effect - just like the real deal! It’s as if you've taken a detour and ended up smack-bang in the middle of Gotham City.
Even the steering wheel gets attention to detail - it lights up right in the centre!
Along with the Batmobile, this collector’s item includes a distinctive 360-degree Batcave Display Base. This dual-purpose creation serves as both a charging station and a rotating platform, enabling admirers to view the iconic vehicle from every possible angle. This display base enhances the cinematic feel, inviting you into Batman's world.
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns
In the driver's seat of this Batmobile, you'll find an exclusive 4-inch Batman action figure, ready to take on Gotham’s underworld. This articulated figure can either be set inside the Batmobile or positioned at the Batcomputer in Bruce's swivel chair, adding to the shelf presence of the piece.
What's In The Box
The set includes the Batmobile RC, the Charging Base, a 4-inch Batman Figure, a Water Dropper for activating smoke effects, an Instruction guide, and 2 AAA Batteries.
Launch Date and Pre-Order
Launch date and a special offer In celebration of 'The Flash' movie and Keaton's big comeback, this beauty will be launched on July 1, 2023. You can pre-order now on Amazon for $179.99.
Just a heads up, this collectible can be a bit of a space hogger, so be sure you've got a decent spot to show it off. In my opinion, it's really meant to be out of the box for full enjoyment, not cooped up inside - unless, of course, you're eyeing it up as a potential investment piece.
Let's drop the pretence, it's perfectly fine to have a sneaky go with our toys - keeps us feeling young, doesn't it? Plus my wee lad, who's nearing three, would be absolutely chuffed watching the Batmobile zoom around, and he's mad about small action figures like this Batman one.
That's as long as he doesn't add it to his 'Basket of Doom', the black hole for figures that aren't lucky enough to receive, shall we say, the collector's touch!
