Lego/Imaginext Crossover MOC: '66 Batmobile

[TheLonelySquireOfGothos]

Hello all, back with another MOC. Since even the smallest Lego Batman set is absurdly expensive, I decided to pick up some Imaginext Batman figures the other day. I got them home, and decided Batman needed a proper Batmobile. So, here's what I came up with. It's very large, and I'd say fairly in-scale with Imaginext figures. Let me know what you think, thanks!

And, as a little bonus, I also made this gun for Joker:

That Batmobile is very good looking

I love the way you did the engine on the back!

The wheels seems a bit too small to support the whole batmobile

I agree, but not everyone has a large variety of wheels available to them. Myself included.

Very nice idea, LonelySquire! The design seems a bit tank-like, but I suppose that's what Batman needs to smash some sense into his foes!

I know the LEGO Batman prices now can be a bit discouraging, but if you'd like to buy some "kiddy" Batman figures while still retaining some of the building aspect of LEGO, I'd recommend TRiO DC Superfriends. They're a nice, cheap substitute until LEGO makes more Batman.

P.S. I like your "BANG!" gun!

Thanks for the feedback, everybody, I appreciate it.

As for the wheels, I actually had to steal these from the vehicle included with Space Police Central. My wheel selection is pretty much nonexistent at the moment, so I was lucky to have any that were even close to scale, and they hold up just fine with the reinforcement I provided below. Oh, and I actually bought a couple Trio sets (Batcave and Superman Plane). I love the Batcave, and I actually bought the Imaginext figures to go with it, since there aren't many Trio sets in my neck of the woods at this point. Seems like most have been bought up after they were clearanced. Unfortunately, this Batmobile is far too large for the Trio Batcave, so I'm thinking of picking up a second to make it gigantic.
