They are from different eras and yet are cool and generally unique in their own way. They make excellent replicas and I like each of them.

Very true, Mike.  I was 15 when the Michael Keaton movie came out, so I've always loved that & the one from the '60s TV show.   Cool to see them all lined up, Rich.

The "1950 Bob Kane"  with that "back seat crime-lab"  is way cool! 😎 😎

I love how the '40s Bob Kane's Batman head lifts up.

@chris It's one of the two diecast model kits  bought years ago from a subsidiary of Johnny Lightning. The other was the 60s model. I was surprised to see a comic book cover that showed it being built with schematics in the background.

1950 Batmobile 019
1950 Batmobile 020
1950 Batmobile 022
1950 Batmobile 014
1950 Batmobile 001
1950 Batmobile 003

The 60s comic book BM seems to have inspired Barris:

PS: I like the black Bakelite rotary phone

Bat60 010
Bat60 017
Bat60 016
Bat60 035 001
Bat60 018
Bat60 001 001

 JL also released a plastic kit at the same time which I kitbashed especially for the two figures.

Bat60 020

Those are great!  I had no idea there were that many versions of the Batmobile in scale!  And you must have them all!!! 

Fun fact:  Those "Biff, Pow Bam" images have a name.  I can never remember what they're called, so I did a Google search.  They are called onomatopoeia.

@chris Here's the pic I was looking for on that rolling crime lab:

One of the problems defining different eras of Batmobiles is that they weren't drawn the same from issue to issue. Note this dorsal finned '50s Batmobile with quad headlamps:
