DARK KNIGHT - BAT POD

Batman movie DARK KNIGHT Batcycle has just add in to my Batmobile collection.

The Bat Pod came in a set of two with the Joker robbery truck and a car launcher thing at the center. The other set are Batmobile (Tumbler) and Harvey Dent's car.




The Bat Pod, I believe it is a 1:50 scale and it didn't come with a rider figure. If the Bat-Pod without a rider it looks like kind of insect with wheels.


After sceaching my Batmobile collection and found an earlier Hot Wheel Batcycle has a rider and try to put him on the new Bat-Pod.



This is how it looks like when it is on the new bike. The rider scale is too small to fit in the new bike.
Hot Wheel did a good job on the Bat-Pod even it looks like the Bat-Pod on it movie poster.


This the real thing for the DARK KNIGHT movie. It looks almost a like as HW Bat-Pod
Hot Wheel did a good job on the Bat-Pod even it looks like the Bat-Pod on it movie poster.


This Bat-Pod have to put side by side with the Batmobile (Tumbler) than it look complete.


This Batmobile has been in the BATMAN BEGINS, the size is the 1/50 scale from Hot Wheel.







Joker truck is also looks nice with accessable rear door. Down side is the truck body is made by plastic.
Hervey Dent's car is the most normal among the release of the Dark Knight car series.
