2014 SAN DIEGO COMIC CON (SDCC) MATTEL BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT BATMOBILE WITH BATMAN FIGURE FULL REVIEW - WRITTEN ON: 27.JULY.2014


One of the exciting vehicles you will be able to buy from SDCC convention other than the Hot Wheels 1/64 scale The Homer Exclusive Edition, James Bond 1963 Aston Mastin DB5 Exclusive (Chrome body color)  & Star Wars Darth Vader Vehicle, this latest release of the stunning Batmobile from the upcoming game Batman: Arkham Knight will be one of the spotlight at SDCC convention.   
A ROUGHLY LOOK AT THE ENTIRE BOX, BATMOBILE & THE FIGURE VIDEO:


To get more review on this Batmobile with comparison, check out this video below:
For those who loved Batman so much, this Batmobile should not be miss as it is very large scale (10 inch to 11 inch Long, 5 inch to 6 inch wide, 4 inch to 4.5 inch tall). The box itself doesn't mention the size of this Batmobile but that's a rough measurement for you to figure out the estimated size, alright.

For all the specs:
This Batman™: Arkham Knight Batmobile features premium, highly-detailed deco and authentic sounds straight from the game, and much more! The tires can do a complete 360-degree spin, allowing the vehicle to turn on a dime… very handy for pursuing villains. When the top of the vehicle is pressed downward the firepower is revealed: on the left side, a riot suppressor rubber bullet gun, and on the right side, a high-powered Gatling gun, both with sounds and light effects – straight from the game!
Hold the activation button longer than three seconds to create a red glow, simulating heat transferring, and press the rear button to turn on the headlights and play the game’s iconic Bat-swarm sound effect. There are also controls to rev the engine, to see the exhaust light up, and for the sound of the cannon. The vehicle comes with an articulated DC Comics™ Multiverse Akrham City Batman™ figure with a fabric cape allowing Batman™ to sit in the driver’s seat!

One suggestion is that i might prefer to have a new batman figure instead the one that looks like the previous Batman Arkham Asylum figure. This is the batman figure i am talking about.
The Variant Play Art - Action Figure Kai has the Batman: Arkham Knight various figure in line for their upcoming release. Check it out.
This figures are super details and they are not statue but fully articulated. Hope one day, Mattel could make such a toy eh.. :)
Anyway, Hot Wheels mainline for this year 2014 will end soon somewhere in September 2014 and will begin with 2015 Hot Wheels mainline series. By then, we might be able to see which Batmobile will be the next new casting. Most probably we will see this Arkham Knight Batmobile in next year's mainline series but we might see more, perhaps the Batman V Superman's Ben Afleck's Batman Batmobile anyhow.. :) Let our curiosity runs high then. :D 
Alright then. Hope you have a good time reading this article, ok.
I'll see you all soon. Have a good hunting & good day to you all. Take Care! :D

As you know, San Diego Comic Con convention only happens once a year and its getting bigger & bigger with top celebrities coming in from all over the states & countries to promote their movies, tv series and more with fans and collectors from all over the world! Its one of the very massive toy event of the year. When it comes down to toy business for Mattel, it means alot to expand its toy empire throughout the world and the one key to unlock it is to joint venture with a well-known movie maker, not just any movie maker but the so called Star Wars franchise which has been bought by Disney in 2014! Mattel quickly strike a deal with Disney and voala! there you have it, a new toy line has born, starting with a built of a real life invention of transforming Star Wars - Darth Vader to a cool ride and all eyes in the world are amazed by it! I have been waiting for this to happen as Mattel (Hot Wheels) has invented so many kinds of fantasy car and this is the one that will spread its toy's empire more wider than anyone can imagine. May the force be with you Mattel! Live long & prosper! Haha.. :D

Now let's check out this coolest videos from Star Wars new invention straight from Mattel!
After watching the video above, it blows your mind eh! haha.. Speechless.. At first, before this video, Mattel only launches the first preview photo for Darth Vader vehicle and not much people really felt the excitement of it until now. For those who attend the SDCC convention, they will be the first to witness the real deal there. Let's have a look at its products.
2014 SDCC HOT WHEELS - STAR WARS: DARTH VADER REAL LIFE VEHICLE
Isn't it amazing?! My God ... this is really something... the designers really has this wild idea in their heads... Genius indeed! :D
Now, its look at the HOT WHEELS 1/64 SCALE SDCC WITH EXCLUSIVE DESIGNED BOX.
This casting is used of RedLine Real Rider Rubber tires. With built -in sounds and light. It is one of the extraordinary masterpiece indeed! It has the price of US$40 if you are at the SDCC convention. Online auction for eBay already started on 25th of July 2014. It sold out faster than any other SDCC Convention items that has never seen before. Some started with US$100 to US$150 a piece also sold out in a matter of seconds! Incredible!!

They even have the HOT WHEELS - STAR WARS: DEATH STAR BATTLE BLAST TRACK SET.
And also the many more to comes Star Wars - Starship assortments.
The display inside the cupboard at the SDCC event is very neat and nice indeed. Only for collectors this kind of display that will need alot of space tough.
Even though Mattel has the rights to produced Star Wars merchandises, Habro still have some rights on Star Wars toys as well. So, only time will tell which company has the mass productions in the near future.

Now, who says fantasy cars don't have much fans eh.. The secret is that whenever you see models produced by Mattel under Hot Wheels section, the NAME of the models is the most matter of all. Now Mattel itself already have lots of movie titles in hands such as MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, GHOSTBUSTERS, BACK TO THE FUTURE & etc., who knows there will be more to comes eh.. We can only cross our hands and hope. :D

I hope we will see more new casting after this wonderful events & it has been a pleasure sharing all these info with you all out there and i hope you feel the same too, ok.
