I'm having a tough time with deciding whether or not to keep my order. Its so amazing and iconic. And in a totally juvenile way it reminds me of pining for the USS Flagg and never getting it.
But its just so damn big. Like the Flagg the Batmobile is a grail of sorts but it won't fit in a curio (unless I find one designed to store automans.) So presentation will be a challenge. We're moving cross country in about 6-8 months. A terrible time to add another piece of "furniture" to the moving truck.
And to top it all off there's the ED-209 and tauntaun. The tauntaun is my favorite landbased "ride" in all of cinema. And it will no doubt be cheaper and have a much smaller footprint. As will the ED-209, which I also like more than the batmobile. So $600+ for my third favorite 1/6th scale "big" collectible and then the inherent difficulty of storing/moving/displaying it.
Our new house will have a fourth bedroom that will be my office/man cave. So I'll have an entire room to play around with, but at this point in my life I'm not really looking for a lot of "effort" to be associated with collecting. And the batmobile will certainly require that to get the end result/presetation I'd be looking for.
I do agree that if I have to think through it this much I probably shouldn't get it (the tauntaun and ED-209 were/are day 1 slamdunks) but dammit I want a Flagg.
