Batman: The Animated Series - The Batmobile by _Tiler

Come on, more cars, it's the season of the zero-interest loan and the special series "Les Bleus" (or not ...), so I offer you another Batmobile, this time inspired by the animated series which bears the very explicit name of Batman: The Animated Series

Obviously, _Tile Amazes us once again with this mini Batmobile immediately recognizable with its collected line and its slender appearance and she referred me to my old articles to find the version (see photo below), much larger and therefore more detailed of BaronSat, MOCeur whose creations I adore on the Super Hero theme.

I send you back from elsewhere  to the ticket in question with some of his Batmobiles and to his site on which you will find many achievements, each more successful than the next ....

Batmobile by PA (Semper Fi)

An original Batmobile that changes us a bit from the eternal Tumbler, even if I love the latter, proposed by PA (Semper Fi) and which integrates two nice features: Hatches open on the front cover to reveal two very good machine guns integrated, and the cockpit opens by sliding to insert a minifigure of Batman.

I'm not particularly a fan of the wheel model used on this MOC, but the whole thing is nevertheless quite successful. The integration of machine guns brings a real plus to the machine, and you can discover the different features in action in the flickr gallery by PA (Semper Fi).
