What a Great looking replica of this Classic 1966 Batmobile. The Engineering Design Team really outdone themselves with this gem. I grew up watching the 1966 Batman series when I was a kid and while I was building this set, the theme was playing in my head which brought tears to my eyes.

It was Great that there was an option to leave the studshooters out, which the Batmobile didn't have machine guns and had pieces to cover it up which left 4 studs on the front of the hood exposed. I added (2) 1x2 flat tiles to cover them up. There were 2 gaps in the upper fin area which I filled in with 1x2 tile pieces. I also replaced the red dome light and the gold radar pieces with studs. Added a black handle bar piece for the antenna and an extra piece from the Lamborghini Countach for the Batchute handle under the arch. All the gray pieces under the canopies and trunk hinge were replaced with black. Now where is Robin the Boy Wonder? The show was known for the Dynamic Duo. I borrowed a Robin from another set which is the wrong one, but better than none. Included was the Classic Joker Minifig with the white powdered mustache which was a plus. All in all, an Awesome set, but with the modifications, a Super Awesome Adult set that was fun to build. Thank you Lego for making this Classic happen in a Lego model to own. Batman!!! Kapow@$?%

Let's begin with the good points. I missed out on getting the classic batcave so jumped at the chance to purchase my favourite batmobile to my mind this is the most iconic of all the batmobile,s ever!. The finished build brought a nostalgic tear to my eye & the rotating display plate is a nice added touch. The minifigures are great renditions of both the caped crusader and arch enemy the Joker. I especially like the moustache on the Joker as fans of the 1960,s will appreciate. Now for the bad points. No Robin! I hope Lego will release the classic batcopter at a later date with the boy wonder included. You have an option with or without shooters on the front hood I prefer the latter as this is more authentic on display the shooters are quite rightly there to add play value. The removed shooters left 2 studs showing that left the hood looking unfinished. I remedied this by adding 2× 2-1 slates and the fins on the rear of the batmobile had an unsightly gap that I remedied by using 2×2-1 flat pieces. These 4 small pieces gave the build a better finish. I had these 4 small pieces in my box of spares so it wasn't to much of a problem. I'm sure Lego take great pride in there product but these minor alterations gave a better finish to the build & maybe Lego could take more care in the future. Overall I recommend all batfans purchase this build but add the 4 pieces for a better finish.

Being someone that was born over 35 years after the series began in 1966, I can say that even I like this model. It's accurate to the show and is very unique from other sets. it's also a rather dense build, which makes it a little heavier than you'd expect. The stud shooters are nice play features, and it's cool that they can be removed and replaced with other pieces. The stand makes more displayable, and it's simple but effective. The minifigures are good. They are well detailed and are accurate to the show, albeit it would be better if they had extra detailing. The value is pretty good. It is a rather dense build and the stand adds extra value. Despite all the pros, there is one major thing missing from this set: Robin, the minifigure missing from the set. It's very disappointing that he is not in the set, and it results in the set being less complete. Despite Robin being missing, I feel this is a very good set, and I recommend it if you're interested in it.

I love this set. I watched the series while building it for an extra meta experience and it was so much fun. First of all, the Joker may be my favorite minifigure ever. The painted-over mustache is something I've loved since I was a little kid, I dressed as Romero Joker for Halloween a few years ago and wore a fake mustache and painted over it, so to see it in minifig form is literally the BEST. The Batman one is terrific, too. And the Batmobile itself was a great build! It was different than other vehicles I've built so I appreciated the different techniques utilized here. If I had to find one complaint, it would have been so much cooler to gave some kind of mechanism that shoots a grappling hook out or even a parachute, or both, but now I'm getting greedy. It looks great, the display is cool and together, all of it makes me very happy. I would loooove to get a similarly sized Burton Batmobile one day. That would be pretty bonkers.
