The 1989 Batman Thread

Is that a snap-together model? Or did it require glue? Any painting involved?

It needed to be glued and painted.

 

[Rex Mason]

Thanks for the info. I usually stay away from the glue and paint models. I'm not really a customizer type. Good result there, though.

 

[Batty]

Thanks! I built it over 20 years ago!

I have mine too from that long ago. Batwing's buried somewhere but my Batmobile is still right in front of me. And the real rubber tires are fine.

When I did attempt to do models I liked AMT models, I thought they Were really good quality.

I have a Batwing AMT model I'm gonna do when I have some more time. Can't wait -cause it's a great looking kit.

 

[Batty]

I'm pretty happy with how mine turned out after all these years.

I remember having the Goon car, but I never built it. And I'm not sure what happened to it.

 

[COSMOSTARX]

Yep, this one.

And thanks!

OMG I had that.

It broke like not too long after I got that when I was maybe 7 or 8.

Sad times.

 

[Jay1138]

That's the Batwing model I'm gonna work on as time allows.

Anyways, I scored an amazing '89 Batman collectible at Fan Days in Dallas today. More to come when I get back to my own computer.

I found the Batmobile kit yesterday when cleaning - never been touched Now to find the time to put it together...

Here's a picture of my score of a lifetime from Dallas this last weekend...

An original '89 lobby card signed by Michael Keaton. Perfect signature too.

Thanks! I got the gloves with the whole suit if I recall correctly but I had to get the metal plate guard from someone else.

 

[monkeybat]

Oh you cheeky lads, no the Batsuit has long gone and most of the items relating to it. I am in contact about making another suit. Im not really suited to it though, im 15-16 stone and to pulla batsuit off you need to be a bit smaller for the 89 to work.
