RE: Batmobile Model
From past discussion, it seems the AMT model has inaccurately shaped hinge for the back trunk.
Not sure how accurate it is otherwise.
When dealing with quetions about batmobile, you gotta light the beacon for Jack or Dave or Kevin or Tim!

RE: Batmobile Model
I'm not sure there is an accurate plastic model. The AMT is probably as good as any. The Japanese 1/32 one may be closer, but I'd have to look at it again. It's been a long time since I looked at it last. I forget the manufacturer, but I'll try to dig it out sometime.

RE: Batmobile Model
Apart form the detail, is the overall shape and size of the AMT/Ertl model accurate?

RE: Batmobile Model
...but if that picture on the side of the box is it, then it is NOT accurate. Actually, that may not be it. I know I have that one but I'll have to check...

RE: Batmobile Model
Nope, the one I am talking about is made by Aoshima and it "looks" to be pretty accurate. I'm sure you can find one on eBay.

RE: Batmobile Model
Here is a link to the only Aoshima batmobile I could find on eBay right now. This is a 1/43 scale car and is NOT the one I have. The one I have is 1/32 scale and I didn't pay near as much. Damn, I just realized I don't have this one...

RE: Batmobile Model
We copied some of this model for the 1/18 diecast. The details are very good and the underside is almost dead on (to the full-size). They still didn't get the canopy right but maybe the gun doors are better?

RE: Batmobile Model
One other thing that is not quite right ar the tips of the front fenders. They are a little too pointed and they hook too much. (Man, have I spent way too many hours studying photos of this car.)
