Re: The Dark Knight: 1/6th scale Batmobile Collectible (relaunch)

yeah i was wondering about that i made it look like joker vadilized my tumbler but i thought about repainting it camo and throw it on ebay and see what happens

That Joker paint up took serious balls on your part :panic:
A camo repaint if done well, could be pretty cool.

It's an awesome concept and it looks great, but I would not have had the berries to deface a pristine tumbler. I wonder, if you had used an airbrush, could you have recreated the look that the graffiti had been done with spray paint? I've never used an airbrush (need to learn how), so I'm actually curious about this...

89 Batmobile > Every other Batmobile

I agree 100%, but I think the Batmobile from AA comes in a close second. Then the Batmobile from the Animated Series after that, with its slick, simple lines. The Tumbler is on the list, though, if for no other reason than bad-assitude and distinctiveness of design.

I like all the batmobiles, each has its unique style with the associated batman.

Yup, I even like the Batmobile from Batman & Robin movie that so many people hate.

Testors is an enamel based paint. It will take an acetone stripper to get the paint off, and that can be tough on some plastics and take any black paint with it.

If you use acrylic paint in the future you could use Simple Green and water to remove the new paint, and likely not impact the original paint job.

I don't think the original release HT Tumbler has any black paint on it at all, it's just molded black plastic. That said, you're right, any attempt to strip that enamel paint off will mar the plastic with it.

Hehe, yeah it relly sucks :p.. The collector-bussines isn't so big in my country, so there is almost no one whos getting these big items. Just busts and maybe some figures if your lucky.

But I found a guy in Sweden who will have the Tumbler when it's released so I will buy from him for 2/3 of the price I would pay if I bought from BBTS.
