Arguably the grittiest Batmobile to roll out of Bruce Wayne’s bat lair, Mattel Creations has teamed up with DC to create this badass 1:10 scale, remote-control replica of the iconic hero vehicle, all in anticipation for the upcoming “The Batman” film.
Officially named as The BATMAN The Ultimate Batmobile, we’ve finally been given a clear look at the menacing machine created as a tribute to the Dark Knight. The Ultimate Batmobile is for enthusiasts who want to get the franchise’s relic ahead of others. The Ultimate Batmobile from Mattel creations is, as mentioned, a 1:10 scale replica of what is portrayed in movies.
It is said to sport a rear-wheel drive system with street-grade working suspension. This masterpiece shows movie details with the inclusion of battle damages in its design and can reach a top speed of 15mph.
Other cool features of the RC Batmobile are functional headlights, an illuminated and detailed interior in tune with details of the actual movie, colour changing LEDS in the rear-jet v8 engine. Mattel creations didn’t hold back on this with other features that will appeal to enthusiasts, like the mist effect created by the water vapor system as the car accelerates and the front and rear flame effects.
The Batmobile is 19.5 inches long, 5.3 inches tall, and 9.6 inches wide. This leaves room for the Batman action figure that moves the steering and turns according to the RC’s movement. There’s also a Batcave docking area set up with LED monitors that light up by pushing the Bat signal. The small car is more like a movie prop than a toy and would look great alongside this Tim Burton-inspired Batmobile blueprint for wall.
