FTC Batmobile ?

[TRDouble]

...I'd love to see them do a bubble vehicle that could be done in blue for a Supermobile and clear for Wonder Woman's jet. And black for Batman of course!

A Mego Supermobile was one of those mythical items that I always asked Santa for as a kid, along with The Flash and Hawkman. Instead I usually got replacement Batman and Robins, along with a new superhero (Green Arrow, Aquaman, Superman, Spider-Man) and a villain (Joker).

The blue and red ones are really sharp. Not sure which one to get.

if they are comparable in price to the Mobile Labs I'd ge a Blue one.
if they are closer to less than $30 each, I'd definitely do a Blue and a Red one.
Didn't the Japanese once make a Red Batmobile toy? I'll have to pull out my
Batman: Collected by Chip Kidd, IIRC that's where i saw a red batmobile once....

Over in the newsletter thread I brought this up too. Here's a couple of links I found showing that Batmobile.

Would be fun to customize the red into an alternate Spider-Mobile.

So, what's everyone's guess as to price?
In one of the old ads, the Mego Batlab was $15.99 and the Mego Batmobile was $4.99, but I doubt the FTC Batmobile will be $30.99 (their Batlab is $99.99). I'd guess $49.99-59.99.

Sharpen those chompers!

Ha! Yeah, I better go see my dentist!

I'm in for Black and Blue. Red is an easy pass.

[THE FALCON]

I dig them all. Great news!

[rodkeith]

Nice surprise! I'm in for at least a blue for myself and likely a black for Junior, who coincidentally was just asking if he could ever get one last night. The red's not so bad either, those 1966 import toy pix that greensavage2000 linked sell me on it. Guess it'll depend on the price.

And all the colour suggestions for batcycles would be awesome.

[TrekStar]

Maybe we will see a Batgirl cycle in different colors along with I can only hope and pray for a Green Arrow car with shooting arrows, that I would definitely buy.

This is one time that if FTC accidently made it too big, I don't think anybody would complain.

[PNGwynne]

OMG my mind is officially blown. I know I (justifiably IMO) crab about FTC, but Wow, just Wow.

[PNGwynne]

I've always wanted to do a Cat-Man figure, and now a red Batmobile can be his wheels!

[megomania]

Will the wheels move?
