I have to say, that is a beautiful piece of work!! I was guessing around £1,500 here in the UK so wasn't too far off. If I had room, would try and find one in an instant!! I work with car paints all week long and can soooo appreciate the time it takes to wet sand and polish something on that scale. For me the missed opportunities are just as you said... The circular saw out the front (Ala every 70's boys Corgi version) and the lack of a realistic 'filler' for the turbine exhaust... If someone has a file available I will happily 3D print one for ya!

Design and 3D print the extras for it easy enough if you know how to use fusion 360 or blender! The front blade etc the rear flame is 3D printed clear resin with the magnet thats the way we do our additional add ons! Probably cost £20 to design and print so their making a hell of a profit

Great review. I got mine back in December and it is by far the centerpiece of my own collection. No videos or photos do the thing the justice it deserves. In person it is just so impressive looking. It is a work of art. Not perfect but well worth the money I paid. I have no idea what people are thinking who have negative comments on it. They have to be clueless types. 😉 Considering that a pro built 1:35 scale military diorama that is only 12”x12” in size can run over a $1000 I can’t understand how anyone could expect a pro built 1/6 model on this level to cost less. I don’t know for sure but I would suspect Joost didn’t make a bunch of money off this Batmobile 66 project considering the obvious production cost and licensing cost. It had to be more a labor of love kind of thing for him. Thanks again for great review. It’s the best one I’ve seen to date.

As a vehicle body specialist the deep black is done by using a red base paint! Alot of orange peel in the paint it's not perfect by any means but man if it was in matt black that would have been awesome atleast you could lay down your own laqure with the airbrush and get the finish perfect! I'm just nit picking as this wouldn't pass inspection on a real vehicle I'd be told to wet sand it again and get the polishing compound on it

I respectfully disagree. Providing me with a prefect replacement, as well as paying for the shipping (return and replacement) is more than enough. JazzInc is a small company, I wouldn't use the opportunity as a way of getting a cheap discount on a stellar product.

I'm going to be critical because of the high cost of the model. The bat rays don't look right at all. Each of the orange panels should be evenly illuminated, and not composed of three individual lights. This is one of my favorite features of the actual car, and this just looks terrible. Next, the mag wheels are also clearly wrong. They should be a Cragar Super/Sport mag in bright chrome without the central ridge on each spoke. Having Cragar S/S mags on your car was a very big deal in the 60s, and the Batmobile reflected the love affair over Cragar mags. Finally. the turbine effect is very poor in execution and just looks like a dim flashing light. There are a number of lesser issues that should have been done better on something labeled as ultimate. Does the model come with internal speakers and sound effects? Another missed opportunity if there is no turbine sound.

@raysway1897

Always good to be critical, as that always leads to improvements. However, to mention a couple of things ... 1) different versions of the car have different features - this piece was based on the original car, earliest version (not subsequent versions). 2) there are many experts, many of whom do not agree on all of the details. 3) chrome could not be used for reasons explained in the video., and after testing, this paint was found to be the best solution. 4) the Batbeams were apparently 3 separate lights (originally), and accurate lens color.. JazzInc primarily used 1966batmobile.com, fiberglass freaks (who make the licensed full scale cars), and Warner Bros. archives as the main resource/ sources for all dimensions and details. Other features were considered, but also cost/time also had to be taken into consideration, so the folks who preordered voted for some details and not others. I'm sure with unlimited budget and time, someone could add all of those details. There is a custom electronic group that have made a soundboard/speaker set for this piece. Thanks for watching!!!
