    Herocross Batmobile?



    This looks like its a bit bigger than the 70s Mego Batmobile and much nicer detail. Might work, if you can overlook the canopy being out of whack. I figure the price is in line with what FTC would charge for something comparable.

        ^^ Well, how much would a metal bodied, working headlight, opening doors and trunk car cost from FTC? Considering its 30 a pop now for figures. I bet the vans will come in around 150.

          Herocross's own site has it at 253


          I was more wondering if people thought it could work for Mego scale.

            It's definitely got my interest up. What I don't get is the whole licensing thing, because there sure seems to be no licensing restrictions like non-rolling wheels or anything else being imposed here.

              At $253, I'm seriously tempted.

                  The Batman figure that comes with it is 5.5 inches tall so it looks like it will not fit the 8 inch megos.

                    ^^ It just depends on leg room, its definitely bigger than the original Mego one.

                      Personally, why would they go that detailed, and therefore pricey for a super-deformed version like this?

                      Other than the canopy, it does look nice, but I think you could redo a beater Mego Batmobile for much less than that price.

                        ^^ The metal body and working lights are a big selling point to me, wish there was a non-blutooth version, I don't need that.

                            Got one MIB on eBay for $199, and couldn't be happier. It's a really nice piece, and would look fantastic with the FTC '66 figures. For now I'm displaying it with the HC figure, but it is in close proximity to my FTC figs.
