Pimp My Batmobile!

Archive for June, 2008

So the official announcement of the 1:50 Batgirl Cycle as the SDCC promo vehicle is now okay to talk about. There may be photos on Friday. Check on the 1966 Batmobile board for more info. Looks like it’s part of a three pack at least at the show, which leads me to believe they might do a mass release of it on a single card. Here’s hoping, anyway.

See, people were moaning amount my hints, but really all you needed was the very first one:

We have a winner! Of the 167 registered users we had as of 6/1 our random number generator selected mnbatman as the recipient of the 1:50 Batmobile and Batcycle set! If you’re out there, mnbatman – give us a shout.

So let’s see what else…The seated figure samples just got here and they look better than we had hoped for. Production starts rolling and we should be shipping those out very soon. Thanks for all your patience.

And we are almost set to start production of the Parts Upgrade set #1 which will include a modified version of the Elite’s newly resized batphone. So some of you wanting to stick to customizing the standard edition can get the only useful part from the Elite version for your mod job. And it will be better. How? Wait and see.

Hang on to your hat folks, I’ve got some scoop. It was just divulged to a high-ranking official at the 1966 Batmobile website that the upcoming mystery SDCC promo vehicle will be…

…not revealed until 6/10. Sorry. LOL. But since Eric doled out some hints on his site, I will too. How about a hint everyday until it’s announced?

• It’s a TV bat vehicle that was seen on screen.
• There was more than one version shown on screen
• It had electronic ignition
• It had modifications by the Fox props dept.
• It had bat emblems on it
