Anyone receive theirs from BBTS? How are the "damages"? Is it worth the risk of ordering?

They just shipped mine out, should have it in a few days.... how heavy is this Batmobile? The box their shipping says 97 lbs. I wonder if that's dimensional weight.

The example pictures of the scratches didn't look bad except for one where the paint was removed by the gas cap. Hopefully I don't get that one...

It's about 50lbs Box weight.

BBTS has pics on its Web site detailing examples of damage.

As much as I'd love one, it's too much, even for $430.

But it's not all of them right? I heard some people getting some that are clean or very minimal.

I'll know more when mine comes in but from the pictures It look liked most of them are min scratch's or minor rub marks, only a few had some very noticeable chips in the paint...

They're all listed as substandard, hence the price markdown. I'm guessing not all of them are equally terrible, but unless I were buying this in person, I wouldn't take the chance.

Well ****... two nights ago I changed my delivery options for the item to be held at the FedEx location, since I could in no way predict when I would be home to receive the package. Seems it didn't go through... so when I checked my tracking today, it said it had been delivered at 11:20 AM, with no need for signature. So this GIANT box is sitting outside my house IN THE SNOW, RIGHT NOW, and I can't leave work for another 40 minutes. Eff.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Wow, that sucks. I hope everything inside is fine!

 

[DoggieDoc]

Wow, that sucks. I hope everything inside is fine!

25 minutes and counting...

I'm more concerned that the package is still THERE. I've never had a problem with anything being left outside my house before... I live in a good neighborhood in a not huge city, but still, it can happen.

 

[Captain Britain]

You've got to tell us what happened! Preferably with a photo of the box outside your house!

I think most people who would see a big box outside your front door would probably think it's an empty box your going to get rid of.... I'll be curious to check out the pictures to see the condition of your batmobile...

 

[YankeesFanboy]

I missed out on this, but the HT Batmobile is like King Tut's sarcophagus. A sight to behold, ultra valuable and desirable and about the same size.

I hit the jackpot. I haven't gotten it fully unpacked yet, but I find barely a scratch on this beauty. There is maybe a little weirdness by the rear window but it only shows up in bright light of a flash. You can sort of see it in the second picture. I am thrilled.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Congrats man, you got a good one, in fact a real good one!

 

[DoggieDoc]

Congrats man, you got a good one, in fact a real good one!

Thanks! I checked all the windows under the plastic protector... Not a scratch, none of the glue issues people had, NOTHING. Oh man, so thrilled!!! Problem is I don't have a case... But I see a lot of people displaying them out in the open, so I will probably be doing the same.

Congratulations on the great Batmobile. Looks pretty perfect, if you ask me. I display mine on a black Lack from Ikea. It's a $40 table, and fits perfectly. I bought two, one to display the shields as well.

There's no experience like unboxing that car. Very cool.
