I got a lovely delayed shipping notice from Amazon this morning about this, that's always a great way to start the day. Also, he designed it where you have to stick his ears up inside the raised part of the roof.
Glad you digg this one man! Awesome review/comparison 🙌🏻 I had one ordered but canceled it because I’m getting the film figure 6 pack. I really just don’t have room for a 22 inch batmobile. The single seat is a bummer. It’s not a huge issue for most people and I totally get that these are “just toys”, but having Keaton stare at that black line down the middle of the windshield just doesn’t work for me 😅
I'm sure others have mentioned it, but Batman v Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was a loving tribute to both, and arguably the best crossover ever. If you haven't seen it, don't walk, run... to whatever streaming platform you can find it.
This batmobile looks sooo much better than the first release, but it's still not perfect. The canopy isn't shaped right. The windows are still too big and slanted too much. The cockpit windows on the actual car are more narrow and the car looks even more aggressive because of it.
I don't have it in hand but I do think the color of The Flash Batmobile is pretty cool. I like the shinny finish. The canopy color of course is unforgivable.
13:49 Damn, you spinning it around makes the thing look so tiny, as if you have Andre the Giant hands. Looks almost like a 3 3/4" car. Crazy that this Batmobile is actually in 7" scale, but you got ppl sayin' it looks like a go-kart next to Batman. I've seen one in person, and it's definitely a lot smaller than I thought.
I don't think I've ever heard anybody referencing Cinema verite in a toy review before. Bravo sir. This channel is certainly the Cannes film festival of toy reviews.
Jazzinc is already making one coming out early next year and I pre-ordered mine already plus they are making the 1995 Batman forever batmobile also which looks incredible. Hot toys is also making the 1/6 scale 1989 batmobile and it's up for pre-order on sideshow collectibles.
@@madhatterreviews6705sadly the Cape is extremely disappointing especially considering that they were supposed to have changed it for the Batman six-pack and even in that pack it's the same cape. Which makes the photo false advertisement. Also I'm willing to buy the older Batmobile since Amazon screwed me on mine.
That matte finish is 🔥. Glad this worked out for ya. Though I can appreciate this, I didn't want it, but the minute they release a Nicholson Joker... 😃
I saw your video posted and went to check my email if mine shipped, and had an emailed that mine got delayed 😫 so until it arrives, i shall live vicariously through you. Now the search begins for a proper Batman, thinking of maybe the NECA or Mezco 😬
I still haven’t got mine. My order had a ship date and now it’s just changed to order received. I contacted amazon about it but they weren’t much help. I’ve checked my email every day, so I know it’s not delayed, but for some reason, it’s acting like it is.
Good you are happy with it. I am a bit disappointed, I could really fix the color issue but the main issues which can't be fixed after purchase are the canopy, dimensions, and the nozzle of the jet engine.
Great review. It just makes me jealous of those who seem to be receiving theirs. I wasn't able to get the 1st one when it came out even though I was there on time to buy it. The Amazon exclusive was late going live, but I hung around and kept refreshing until it did. It stayed up for a few minutes after I secured one, but I still received an order postponement. Has anyone had their postponed order shipped, or did they eventually just get canceled? Referring to this version and / or the previous one. My guess is that it'll get canceled.
I let go of my flash version as soon as I ordered this. I dig it a lot more for sure. And the figure is actually better than I was expecting. At the price I think it’s a win. Hope they put them out again for those who missed out.
The Van is from Underground Arsenal, 3rd party company. Highly recommended. I have one and it’s awesome. Huge scale! I missed the Batmobile 89 too, I have the grey canopy but I’ll probably paint it.
Something about the head makes it look more like Clooney. The Flash Batman figure looks like it has a slightly thicker neck, which helps to give more of the shape of the one piece cowl. The outside, embossed part of the emblem should be black as well and the little vile holder things on the belt need to be moved in slightly closer to the middle.
McFarlane really keeps things affordable. 80 bucks for a Batmobile and a ‘89 Batman isn’t bad for 2023. The McFarlane figures generally have good articulation.
I always thought the 89 Batmobile was flat black, and the 92 Batmobile leaned more towards the glossy side while still having a bit of a satin finish. So I always like the 89 Batmobile better. I believe that car is actually in the Petersen automotive museum.
I managed to get one on US Amazon from the UK so fingers crossed with shipping & stuff. But I already have the Medicom Mafex '89 Batman so will be displaying that figure with this Batmobile
There was a board game made by IDW they was ninja turtles then they released another with the same rules system for BTAS, so you can interchange turtles and Batman characters in different scenarios.
Well I missed both options, as not once have any of the stores in my area had it stocked, so I'll offer to take the first grey canopy version for your money plus shipping...
Is the figure that comes whith it in scale with the vehicle? The figure seems a little to big for it, the mezco figure looks much better next to the batmobile
I was able to pre-order with no problem, while others were having issues, but mine still got delayed and might end up canceled. I'm switching to collecting My Little Pony.
There’s a whole lot of people that missed out on this Batmobile. McFarlane would be an idiot to leave all that money sitting on the table. And I would die laughing at all the scalpers trying to make double their money for this bullshit right now. Don’t give in guys. McFarlane will definitely reissue this somehow.
I tried on both occasions and could not snag one yet a jerk on eBay has sold 22 of them. McFarlane needs to do something about the distribution of special figures and vehicles.
no one's noticing the collector's card is missing from this set and it's listed on Amazon as part of the package! if you don't see it in yours when you open it that's because it's not there!
New sub. I dont know what is but on the new one it looks like striations and imperfections on the body. Is the old one a bit better as far as the body? I don't know now. ?. 😮
when we complain about the small details on the NECA Turtle van and turn a blind eye on the one seater "McKenner" 89 Batmobile 😂- i hope i find a good customizer when mine arrives - nice batmobile comparisons too
Toddddd - I want a Batmissile - and an Arrowcar - oooh oooh and a Fiddlermobile (Flash Of Two Worlds) - and then get Marvel's license so we can get a Red Skull First Avenger car - the one that Tommy Lee stole from him at the end.
I'm not completely blown away by his toys. He's not like the GDL or Toy Anxiety folks with their giant Hot Toys vehicles and Mondo collections. I am blown away that he can afford to live in L.A. and has space for his toys. The toys are probably a few grand a year. A house in L.A. big enough to hold them probably RENTS for two or three times a month what Hatter spends on toys in a year. And you can resell old toys to buy new toys but you never get rent money back. (I guess you do get mortgage money back if you sell but the toys are probably a better investment.)
Yeah, it would be fucking nice to get this thing. Both times I found out about it going up for sale was after the fact. Didn't have a chance with either release. So yeah, here's hoping Todd does right and puts this damn thing up as like an open pre-order at some point. *If not, I'll always have my animated Batmobile, and toon vehicles always outweigh the live action stuff. Cause it's not like I'm gonna have a 6/7" scale Ecto-1 or that super nice and expensive 7" DeLorean to go along with it.
Amazon sent me the notification that this one was coming. The amount of cardboard that I had to unbox was like a Russian puzzle box. I highly doubt McFarlane could make his Batman 89 Batmobile a two-seater, unless he retooled it so that you could open the sides...which kind of defeats why you would get a Batman 89 Batmobile. Otherwise, just because I love the Batman Keaton movies so much, I would like to see McFarlane's take on the Batmissile. If this happens, then I can understand why McFarlane has made the Batman 89 Batmobile as just a one-seater.
The matt look is BEAUTIFUL compared to the shit plastic you everyone bought first lol. Glad i waited. Mine is coming in tommorow 👊 dont care if its missing the "shine" matte looks waaaay better
The gold rim was never in the movie i think Todd base is on the Hot Wheel 1:18 their a version with gold part on it .And in the Flash movie we see the Batmobile for maybe 5 seconds dont get your hope up !!!

@@durant100 That's the feeling I got when I saw it, cancellation incoming. Lol
That happened to me too, I’m pissed!
A lot of us did Amazon totally dropped the fucking ball!
I received an email saying exactly the same thing.
If they try to refund the money it's over for them 😂😢
The $260 Turtle Van next to the $60 Batmobile is quite striking. There really is a Turtle Tax these days.
THANK YOU Mad Hatter!!! Them comparisons with the TMNT Van and the Batman Animated Series Batmobile was a great thing you just did for me.. 👍

there is an aftermarket canope replacement coming out that fixes it.
Nice comparison. Unfortunately the windscreen is still way too high on the new one.
I don't have it in hand but I do think the color of The Flash Batmobile is pretty cool. I like the shinny finish. The canopy color of course is unforgivable.
And in the 89 movie the car is gloss black.

love how keaton looks with the movie turtles, awesome review man💪🏽
It looks great! I’m still holding out for Jazz Inc to make one. It’ll cost a pretty penny, but I’d love a premium version of this on my shelf.
Jazzinc is already making one coming out early next year and I pre-ordered mine already plus they are making the 1995 Batman forever batmobile also which looks incredible.
Hot toys is also making the 1/6 scale 1989 batmobile and it's up for pre-order on sideshow collectibles.
Looks fantastic! I missed out on both preorders. So it will forever be missing from my collection. Not worth the secondary market prices.
It's back on Amazon at normal price now.
I’m happy you enjoy it so much! Johnny Nostalgia was not pleased at all with this package 😂
Hahaha he’s a BUM!!!
You should have just waited for the hot toys version... It's not that expensive

It’s the same gray canopy on both. The matte spray blends it better but it’s the same car but one has clear matte spray paint over it.
This is badass for sure!!
Amazon better come through and fulfill my order.
Definitely looking forward to adding this to the collection ❤

The box alone makes it better than the flash version and worth the second purchase.
I like the Mezco but with the suit I’d be too afraid. Can’t wait to get my Batmobile and sell the first one. I never even opened it.
I let go of my flash version as soon as I ordered this. I dig it a lot more for sure. And the figure is actually better than I was expecting. At the price I think it’s a win. Hope they put them out again for those who missed out.
Hatter coming in CLUTCH - I ALMOST just bought locally that Flash movie Batmobile & THANK god I watched this before I did‼️🤙
I have a slight bit of regret about not ordering this. Hopefully McFarlane sticks to the pattern and there is a better version announced soon.
Thanks for the review. I missed this one, hope they re-release. What Turtle van is that?! Who made it?
The Van is from Underground Arsenal, 3rd party company. Highly recommended. I have one and it’s awesome. Huge scale!
I missed the Batmobile 89 too, I have the grey canopy but I’ll probably paint it.
Now we just need a Mezco 89 Joker 🤞
If Mezco would announce it this year, it would release after 5 years, haha. Third party figures is where it's at.
Something about the head makes it look more like Clooney. The Flash Batman figure looks like it has a slightly thicker neck, which helps to give more of the shape of the one piece cowl. The outside, embossed part of the emblem should be black as well and the little vile holder things on the belt need to be moved in slightly closer to the middle.

Looks really good with that Mezco … Although, I hope Uncle Todd has other figures coming from the Burton movies.
This revision is still on sale at Amazon for $70
Can u tell us more about that batmobile from animated series??
The ears are accurate as they had to use a shorter ear hood for him in the original film to get the canopy closed
You get a new camera? Looking good! 😁👊🏼
Hi! Where did you get that turntable? Turning the Batmobile like that looks awesome!!!
Batman 89 should not be able to move his head, unless he's in the batwing.
Waiting on my order.
Glad I held out on the "grey top" release.
That seems to be the thing with mcFarlane: DON'T JUMP ON IT!
Why are these released in such limited quantities when there is such an obvious demand for it? Seems like a weird business practice.
I managed to get one on US Amazon from the UK so fingers crossed with shipping & stuff. But I already have the Medicom Mafex '89 Batman so will be displaying that figure with this Batmobile
