The Polar Lights 1966 TV Batmobile 1:25 scale SNAP kit arrived on my desk a little while ago from the folks at Round 2/Polar Lights. Thumbs up all around. Full review shortly. For now, groove on this hastily shot and cobbled video. (NOTE: I mistakenly mention that the slot car set is available from “AutoArt”, it should be “AutoWorld”. Will fix later.)
Oh, Snap! The Batmobile!

May 27, 2011 at 6:31 pmTheir sales page now says May…and June?? Is this going to be moved again and again??

May 27, 2011 at 7:09 pmNo no, Jamie may have missed the “coming in May” callout at the bottom of the page when he edited. At last I talked to him they were “on the water” so should be showing up on thier site mid june or earlier. They have to satisfy distributors first though so realistically they could be found in your local hobby shop by next week. I spoke with a good friend of mine at Boardman hobbies in Youngstown Ohio, he expects them at the warehouse any time now and is prepared to drive out to pick them up. Many hobby shops are doing the same. ;)
