1966 Batmobile

The Batmobile from the classic Batman TV series from the 60's now a LEGO set. A large LEGO set. While this new Batmobile certainly does well at depicting the iconic Batmobile from 1966, it seems to lack some features that we have come to expect with sets of this scale. This could be why teh price tag seems a but more reasonable. In any case, the build on this et is a lot of fun and it is sure to look great in display.

You young kids. Born in 65' so I grew up watching this Batman show. To me this is the original batmobile which is why I want it even though I don't usually buy the Batman stuff. Only have the shadow box but that is unique. Honestly I'm glad they didn't add the features you mentioned and kept it $100 cheaper otherwise I probably wouldn't buy it. Hell it's for display anyway so I don't need to open the hood. I do like that you bring up these different points though.

This video makes me want to get the Ecto-1 more than the Batmobile! 👻

[@alexnunes]

haha, I am not surprised.

[@dyriten]

Yeah untill the white plastic starts to turn yellow

[@joevictor53]

​@@dyritenthen you have the Afterlife one

[@michaeldowd3354]

Buy for me. My large sets sit on shelves to be admired so the lack of play features in return for a lower price is a great trade.

[@JoshStaffieri]

Thank you for the comparison review! Love seeing how sets compare to others. Saw you had the smaller version of the classic TV bat mobile and that would have been nice to compare as well. My biggest beef with the set is the bizarre reason we can't pre-order it during "Batman Day" promotion running 9/17-9/23. Missed opportunity to say the least.

[@JimboBricks]

Wish there was a Robin included. The Dynamic Duo was such a big part of the show

[@studebricker2845]

He has already been released soooo...

[@AJ-by6pd]

Why only one minifig? No Robin?

[@alexnunes]

Yep, that was a big miss.

[@studebricker2845]

Because he is available in other sets.

[@matthewpotter8491]

Love the set. When I think of a Batmobile, this is what I think of. It’s my favourite. That said… why oh god why did they not include Robin. They keep doing this! Grr. Am I right in thinking he’s only appeared once in the batcave play set?

[@georgepasymowski2508]

A must have for me. Would have liked a robin minifig too 😊though.

[@studebricker2845]

66 Robin has already been made. If you were a true fan, you would already have him.

[@georgepasymowski2508]

[@studebricker2845]

@@georgepasymowski2508 If you already have Robin then why are you complaining LOL And I'm sure you are a bigger 66 fan because I am not a fan, so POW!

@@studebricker2845 get a life dude. I keep my sets complete. I'm not gonna grab a robin from one set and put it with another set. Happy Batman Day!!!

Nice review as always. Missed opportunity for an opening door and HoG steering which wouldn't add too many extra parts. I wonder would it be possible to customise the thing on the top to make it into a HoG steering?

[@alexnunes]

I think HoG steering is possible, but it would take some serious mods. The tires have absolutely no wiggle room in those wheel wells.

[@Carboxylated]

decent price, looks amazing but lacks A TON of play features...something the deloren, ecto 1, and aston martin "comparable" sets have. Granted those sets I mention are priced higher so im not knocking this nw batmobile too bad but dang it seems like such a massive missed opportunity to add some gadgets and play features for an extra $60-80 bucks.

[@markdavies5097]

Looks ok, and a great price...BUT!!! Why are the wheel arches square????? And why has nobody mentioned this????

[@BrickWatcher]

I watched RacingBricks and he mentioned it.

[@brianstraight9308]

I mean, do you want inexpensive or cute play features you use a couple times?

[@alexnunes]

Good point! They mostly stay untouched.

[@BlasterWorks-n5u]

I'm sure someone will design a V8 engine and steering mechanism for it. If that happens, I'd think long and hard about modifying the car

[@Mardigrasman23]

Not day one but definitely getting. I can’t believe you think LEGO is meant to be played with. Lol

[@alexnunes]

I know, what am I thinking!?

[@JimboBricks]

Real question is: are you happy you got this instead of Jabba’s sail barge?

[@alexnunes]

While I am happy to get this, I would have much rather received the Sail Barge. But there are a lot of Star Wars only channels out there and they will always get them.

[@BrickTsar]

Why no Robin?

[@alexnunes]

Robin got snubbed again!

[@BrickTsar]

@@alexnunes holy ward napping

[@studebricker2845]

He's already been made, people....

[@subraxas]

8:56 - Captain Kirk returns.... again!! 🙂

[@studebricker2845]

Not interested, but one thing I don't like about the large cars is the scales they build them in are all over the place.

[@Lihtsleeper]

Great honest video love 66 Batman but this is a pass for me

[@ronvallance5425]

I was looking forward to purchasing the set, but I'm not sure now. Like you, no steering and no engine is a miss. I washed the series and have a box set of the few seasons it aired , also the engine was rarely shown or never shown, can't remember. Also the stickers are disappointing and again they did not include Robin. There are great and super detailed 1/18 die cast and super detailed Batmobile out there. The latest one includes Batman , Robin as well as the Jocker and Penguin. So spend money those ones instead of the lego one . Have a great week and I look forward to your next video. 😀

[@BrickTsar]

You really are suppose me to disclose at the beginning that it’s provided by the manufacturer - KZbin guidelines

[@alexnunes]

I should read those.

[@studebricker2845]

Really?

[@CAJUNAFOL]

And here I was thinking I was going to be able to save money….. 😂🤣

[@atrocitaswrath]

Looks bad, nothing like the actual 1966 Batmobile, the wheel arch's, the glass bubble windshields, the front end, its all waaaaay off. Was going to be a day one buy for me to put next to the Tumbler, 1989 Batmobile and The Batman 2022 Batmobile. On top of that it only comes with one minifig???? defiantly not buying it at all looks terrible all around.

[@jeffreyschwingel2645]

Wouldn’t buy it? The car awesome

[@SueBobChicVid]

I'm "that old" but not a Batman TV show fan.
