    Anyone know this guy? Is he on the forum?

    He seems to have built a killer true mego scale batmobile and some cool figures as well:

      That Batmobile is cool but it looks a little small for the 1/6 scale figures. I think it'd be better for 8" or 9" figures.

        I'v seen that site before. The detail Roberto Williams uses is simply incredible. I wonder if the ebay aucton is one of his resin casts of his original batmobile body or from a different source.
        It's not a doll it's an action figure.

          i've been to his store in san francisco and seen the car in person. it is very nicely and well made. his name is robin, very nice guy. he actually took it to an autobody shop to have it painted and color sanded. he has some very cool stuff but a little out of my price range.

            So has anyone else made a mego scale batmobile? I was thinking of doing one from the looks of it, it might be a hefty costly project.

                  Well, if anybody should be interested in a accurately scaled Batmobile for the 12" figures, I do have an unbuild kit up for grabs. I was thinking of 3D scanning it and bringing it down to Mego-scale, but never followed through on this.
                  So, if somebody has use for it, drop me a PM.

                    I don't think the one in the auction is Roberto Williams Batmobile...last I knew he lived in Brooklyn. Met him a couple of times at the store I used to work at. Nice guy, and I saw the prototype he was working on for the Batmobile. I know that he said he wanted it to have working lights and stuff. Unless he moved out to California...it's not his. I have a feeling that the Batmobile in the auction is a reworked Captain Action style Batmobile that was made about 5 or so years ago...Can't remember who put it together. I do remember them trying to sell them at a couple of Big Apple Shows that I did back then. Price was about $250 and you had to assemble the whole thing yourself...once assembled it was nice.

                    Their eyes can't hope to see
                    The beauty that surrounds them
                    Isn't it a pity".

                      I just came across this site:

                      Games and Beyond Custom Gloves for Captain Action

                      It's a review of the JoeMobile you mentioned done by Wes McCue. It's for the Cap Action batman line.
                      I think this would work with Mego scale.

                      Does anyone know where I could get one?
