Batman: Revenge Batmobile #1

Black Exterior
Batmobile

The first ever Batman LEGO film debuted December 12, 2003. Created and directed by Jonathan Markiewitz of Markiewitz Film Entertainment, this film pays homage to the Tim Burton films in both appearance and music. The "Burton" design also influenced the Batmobile featured in the film, which was an excellent LEGO version of the "Keaton car."

Taking the LEGO Keaton car one step further, this "Batmissile" Batmobile was created to act just like the 1992 car. Just like the car in the movie, it can shed both sides to allow for narrow escapes!

This Batmobile also appeared in the promotional photos for Batman: Revenge, though the above car was the one that really got the workout in the film. In this case, the LEGO car was based on the later "Kilmer car," complete with an open "V" shaped roof fin.

The "newest" LEGO Batmobile, from the creator of Batman: Revenge, is this model based on the "Tumbler" from the upcoming movie Batman Begins. The Tumbler is especially unique in that its armor plate design lends itself to a LEGO recreation better than many of the traditional cars.

The Big Game Batmobile

Base Car:
1964 Dodge Polara
Color(s):
Black Exterior
Batmobile

Joe Johnson, owner of hollywood-diecast.com, got to be the man behind the cowl in the fan film The Big Game. Though his "Batman" had a problem or two on the streets, the Batmobile wasn't one of them. The classic Dodge was an appropriate choice for a Batmobile, as its design was strongly influenced by Chrysler's turbine-powered concept car.

Canole Batmobile

Base Car:
1974 Corvette
Color(s):
Black Exterior/Black Interior
Batmobile

This custom Batmobile made a big impression online when it was claimed to be the then-upcoming Batman Begins Batmobile. In reality, it was designed by Chris Canole and built by Chris, Brian Hare, and David Coons over a period of three years, using a 1974 Corvette base and a big block 454 Chevy Cheyenne engine. About 20 surfboard blanks were attached to the Vette, with much of the bodywork being done using Bondo, fiberglass, and sculpted foam. The result was a lightweight, powerful custom.

Base Car:
Speed Racer Mach 5
Color(s):

Batmobile

From Inanimate Objects:

"Somewhere, a devoted Speed Racer fan is screaming. Yes, this is a repainted Mach 5 toy. I am not a Speed racer fan, though I'm more than happy to use Resaurus' great figures as parts. The Mach 5 playset is simply amazing, and I'd probably have bought it even if I wasn't a customizer.

"I simply repainted it. The design is so sleek, and the toy so well made, I felt anything I added (including various Bat symbols) would detract from the final product. I don't even mind the tires reading "Speed Racer." And one can never have too many Batmobiles (or Jokers... or Harleys...)."

"The Shadow Thundercab became the basis for this project. The bat shield was sculpted and the roof and fin were cut from styrene. The black spray paint made it appropriate for Bats to keep in his garage."

From the designer:

"This is a digital illustration of a Batmobile fantasy design, based on the LeMans-winning Bentley racecar, the EXP Speed 8. I have long thought it would make a good base car, and when it was done it looked more like something from Batman Beyond, so I added the text."

In the John Fiorella film "Grayson," Batman has been murdered and Dick Grayson comes out of retirement to avenge his death.

Also briefly featured is this red-pinstriped Audi TT Roadster as the Batmobile. The car actually gets two scenes in the film, first in the Batcave, and then later in a highway chase scene with Robin at the wheel (with the scene filmed on an actual highway).
