The Tumbler Hot Wheels Elite Batmobile The Dark Knight /Batman Begins 1:18 Scale Review

[mandogmachine]

For those who think the model looks too small: Note that the actual 1:1 Tumbler is only 4.57 m long (according to Wikipedia). At 1:18 that would be around 25 cm.

Awesome, i have the one that was slightly cheaper but same size

@deanknight333 There isn't much difference. Probably the only Hot Wheels elite that isn't superior to the standard version.

I have a modest collection of 1/18 scale cars and i have to agree that these Batmobile's are a little under scale. The seats in the Bat cars are smaller. But i wouldn't trade them for anything!

@70humbler They are still cool models but they aren't to scale. I can believe the 89 Batmobile could be 1:18 but this Tumbler isn't in the same scale so that can't be 1:18. Just warning those who think this will be a true 1:18 model of the Tumbler.

Yeah the vehicle does look quite small for the supposive scale, although I have rewatched footage of the vehicle scenes in the movie and it is definitely quite a stumpy tank.

@CommanderZx2 It's a good size, weighty and highly detialed but way too small for 1:18 I don't think even a 3 3/4 figure would be scaled correctly with it it's even smaller then the 1989 version.
