[shadow=red,left,300]Kuan, thanks for the pics! The Corgi line is definately one of my favorite Batman lines of the past year, and I can't wait to pick these babies up. [/shadow]

Oh YEAH Baaaby! Just gets better and better. Thanks for the pics! Im especially excited and pleased with the two new "2000 #'s4-5" versions! I dig it but wouldve liked the "Batrocket" more if they had just went with the 90's bat-rail vehicle which was basically identical but a bit "cooler". Im pretty convinced now there must be a rights issue with the good ole 90's version? I think this is a slightly better assortment than last round. Im very pleased regardless

Kuan, I hero you again. Thank you! One question: the Batmobile # 4 looks like it could be the inspiration for the C3 Batmobile. Since all of Corgi's Batmobiles are based on comic art do you happen to have a pic of this Batmobile from the comics?

Oh man I cant wait! Would anybody else like to see the Corgi team tackle some Elseworlds models as well? Such as the Holy Terror design? I also would like to see them include a 1:18th Batgirl/cycle to go along with the Robin and Bats!

Batlaw, The 70's Batrocket look identical with the Bat-rail vehicle of the 90's. I think we need a subway track to run the Batrocket. Here a pic. Batrocket and the 90's Bat-rail vehicle.

I agree with you Batlaw we need modern day Batgirl cycle or Nightwing Bike to go along with Batman and Robin bike Batgirl Bike New Batgirl Bike [Nightwing Bike with Huntress

OK, now you've done it!.. I demand we get not only both new and old Batgirls on their own bikes, but how friggin sweet would it be to get a Nightwing/cycle WITH Huntress on the back!? Since Dick doesn't have a cape, it would work perfectly! Imagine.. Nightwing posed aggressively forward with Huntress positioned turning to the rear with crossbow drawn!?
BTW, a hero for you Kuan!

[Nightwing Bike with Huntress Y'know, the way you've got that pic set up, it almost looks like Nightwing dropped Huntress off the back of the bike! ;D

I agree with IamI, when is that version of the Batmobile gonna get some attention from Corgi? That 'mobile is the coolest besides the "Hush" version. MHO of course...
;D

Well thats been the great ongoing corgi debate. The good ole 90's comic version. I suspect at this point there must be some kind of rights issues? this version has been the only modern one really released for use in misc. merchandise w/o tying into an actuall license such as a toon. this has been an rc car, an ornament, fast food toys and cookie tin to name a few. BUt no actual traditional "toy". I described this model in detail and asked about it back when the Corgi rep requested questions and ideas, but no answer was given. All she confirmed was that (obviously/assumed) they do not have the rights to any of the original tv or film versions. It is a curiosity.

Yeah that too! FYI heres a pic of it and the latest version inculded in the "One up Coin" series... (yikes that name is lame lol) They are a little "exagerated" versions translations but really cool IMO. BTW, these are basically 1:64th scale.

Batlaw it would be great if Corgi produce a bike with Nightwing posed aggressively forward with Huntress positioned turning to the rear with crossbow drawn!? A new bike will be out in the latter half of 2006. Not sure whether if a Batgirl Bike or a Villian Bike (Joker- bike or a Cat-cycle?) Love to see Corgi do a Batman and Robin WhirlyBat model.

I just got around to posting this, but I've been a huge suporter of this line I have all the batmobiles from the 40's - '00 and v2 of the '60's batmobile which is the closest to the TV version. I also have the Joker mobile. Finally I found Robin's '00 Redbird the week of Christmas at Walmart and thought I'd share it with all of you

Welcome Darkclaw! (heres a 1st hero for being such a fellow Corgi fan!).. As of right now, I have every 1:43rd scale release and all but 1 1:18th/1:23rd. (have no plan or intention to buy any of the special sets since none have really appeared worthwhile to me yet). I cant wait for the next wave! To me, this line is literally a dream come true! It along with the JLU line are my primary collecting vices I allow myself to fully indulge in. Everything is purely "as life permits" Etc. lol.

At Christmas, we put our tree on a platform, and on set up the "mini village" thing with the train and all the houses. This year, I put the Corgis out, and it looked great. Really cool seeing the Batmobile flying through the city. ;D

Thanks for the 1st hero Batlaw! I really enjoy the Corgi line and hope they keep making worthy vehicles. I wonder if they'll do any of the animated ones?

Youre most welcome Darkclaw! Sadly, Corgi will not be able to reproduce ANY of the previously known (and adored) animated, film, or tv versions of the Batmobile. Their license is strictly limited to past and present historical comics versions. At least for now hehehehe
