It has been a hot minute since I talked about getting batmobiles in Mcfarlane's DC Multiverse line, and actually the last time I did it was way back when the build-a figure waves were going to only focus around building miniature batmobiles! How times have changed, and we're getting full scale batmobiles (and other vehicles) for our figure displays! The Keaton Batmobile has been released twice thus far, once for The Flash movie and another for the original 89' movie, with the Retro 66' Batman batmobile also seeing release (and rerelease as the Jokermobile), not to mention the current release of Nolan's beastly Tumbler! Complete in camo colors as well for Bane's army. The comic side of things are getting love as well with the White Knight batmobile a surprise release this year! While they certainly take up a lot of shelf space, these iconic vehicles are epic to see in 7inch scale, and I'm glad Mcfarlane decided to go ahead and give us full size, proper batmobiles!
5. Batman and Robin
One of the flashiest Batmobiles in the live action film series is definitely the Batman and Robin version of the car, with an entire line up of figures released to go along with this vehicle! The colors on the inside would be such a burst of rainbow to stand it out against some of the other Batmobiles we've gotten to this point, lending itself perfectly to electronic lights features!
4. Batman Forever
Another batmobile with a very abstract design would be the Batman Forever batmobile, with this wave slated to hit stores very soon! It would be timely of Mcfarlane to get out this batmobile to hit around the same time as the figures it pairs with, and just like the Batman and Robin batmobile this one would be perfect for electronic lights to be fitted into the design of the toy!
3. Patterson car
While not as flashy as the previous two batmobiles, I really liked the subtle nature of Patterson's batmobile. The suped up car made for one of the coolest sequences in the movie as he gave chase to the Penguin, and while it has been some time since the release of The Batman that universe will see a continuation in The Penguin later this year which would put this film back on people's minds, and possibly a good time to finally get this batmobile out to fans!
2. Arkham Knight
It has been a hot minute since we've really gotten a nice helping of videogame offerings from the Arkhamverse in Mcfarlane's DC Multiverse, and I think that a really nice way to jump back into that universe would be to release the iconic batmobile that the final game in the quadrilogy focused so much around. While the game gets a lot of flak for its constant tank battles and overuse of the batmobile, there's no denying that it is a beast of a design, and plenty awesome to drive around the streets of Gotham.
1. Snyder-verse
The batmobile topping my most wanted list is going to be the Ben Affleck batmobile seen throughout Batman v Superman and Justice League. I love the design of this thing, it is easily the most agile and most traversal looking batmobile out of the designs in live action, and I was always hype to see it in action in these films. Mcfarlane recently retouched upon the Snyderverse by giving us Batman in his BVS design, so I wouldn't mind one bit if they want to go ahead and pump out the batmobile to go along with him.
