Pimp My Batmobile!

Well, these guys are just slamming the Batmobiles out these days. Check out the first reports of 1:32 Batmobile and Black Beauty slot cars.

Most days it isn’t a bonus to live in Pittsburgh. Not to sound all anti-black n’ gold and all – but seriously, it’s usually a shot and a beer kind of town. (and I’m NOT a shot and a beer dude) But here we are emulating Gotham for the time being and I’m like a pig in um…guano.  Just spotted a few miles away from where I live, it looks like we’re seeing the original mil-spec Tumbler again, at least for the time being.

More news as I get closer to the fray next week. And no, that’s not a mirror behind it so yes, there are multiple filming cars here.

The Polar Lights 1966 TV Batmobile 1:25 scale SNAP kit arrived on my desk a little while ago from the folks at Round 2/Polar Lights. Thumbs up all around. Full review shortly. For now, groove on this hastily shot and cobbled video. (NOTE: I mistakenly mention that the slot car set is available from “AutoArt”, it should be “AutoWorld”. Will fix later.)
