Just finished building this Jada 1966 Batmobile. Probably can still use a few little touch ups. But for now it will be fine on my shelf with the other Batmobile I have. Hope you all like.

Being a life-long BATMAN fan, I love it. Looks Bat-tastic!

Thanks, George. A quick fun build. Took about 20 minutes to put together.

Very interesting. Looks like a nice model. I was aware of the diecast version of this, I didn't know there was kit too.

Looks like a fun build.
Robin wrecked my Batmobile. Again! Now he's in really deep doo doo with the Batman. The Batmobile dealership closed for good during the pandemic, and parts are getting hard to find.

@jcarnutz John this is a diecast kit. Picked it up at Hobby Lobby not too long ago.

Is it a metal kit? I remember building a metal kit when I was a kid, but it wasn't a Batmobile. The models I wreck are all plastic. I've experimented with some die cast models that were in bad shape, but I couldn't get the metal hot enough to bend. It's tricky even with the plastic ones.
