A bit odd question, I'll grant you that.
And yet, this is the content of the set LEGO Ninjago 9444 Cole's Tread Assault released in 2012 which served as a starting point for Bomberman to design his Tumbler and Batpod.
Anxious to limit the final cost price of his Tumbler, Bomberman therefore invested in two boxes of set 9444 containing Cole's buggy, which allowed him to have a large batch of useful parts available with in particular 8 wheels including 6 are essential to the design of a Tumbler that respects itself.
The end result is astonishing: This 356 piece Tumbler really has a "pretty face" and remains extremely consistent with the proportions of the reference model used, which is not always the case among the many Tumbler MOCs offered so far. .
And since he had a few pieces left, Bomberman took the opportunity to complete Batman's road paraphernalia with the Batpod below.
To see more about these two realizations that deserve your full attention, visit the dedicated topic of the Brickpirate forum where you can enjoy other photos from different angles and you can compare Bomberman's work with the reference images of the Tumbler and the Batpod. You will see, it's bluffing ...
We can dream, right?
Paul "Sariel", a 29-year-old MOCeur Technic from Poland who is no longer presented, offers a MOC which obviously speaks to me more than public works vehicles or tanks: A motorized and radio-controlled Tumbler.
MOCeur explains in detail on his website the various technical challenges that he had to meet to achieve the result that you can discover in the video below. Front suspensions, reinforcement of the front part of the chassis, steering system of the front wheels, problems posed by the design of the Tumbler itself with angles not very Catholic to reproduce, etc ...
Anyway, I don't know anything about Technic, but I bet that those who are interested will take the trouble to read what Sariel writes about his MOC.
The others will do like me: They will drool in front of the video.
I expected LEGO to compromise with the advertised version of the Tumbler, but this is a big disappointment for me. A stylish mini-Tumbler Hot Wheels, Bat barely correct and 3 minifigs which once again make the whole point of the set. Bof .... What more can we say except that LEGO could have made an effort on the realization of the Tumbler.
This set of LEGO Super Heroes 76001 The Bat vs Bane: Tumbler Chase of 368 pieces is advertised for $ 39.99 in the US.
South Korea is offering us some great things right now and it's not just PSY and its Gangnam Style...
Do-Hyun Kim aka stick_kim has just offered for download the pdf file of instructions to reproduce his Tumbler MOC. Everything is detailed, explained and illustrated in this 7.0 MB file that you can download directly from Brick Heroes at this address: Tumbler by stick_kim (PDF, 7.0MB).
One more Tumbler then, while waiting for the official camouflage version promised by LEGO in an upcoming set based on the blockbuster The Dark Knight Rises ...
Hulk_Smash, forumerEurobricks which had access to the retailer catalog for 2013, brings us some information on the next sets of the LEGO Super Heroes range:
The Tumbler in camouflage version is confirmed, along with The Bat. the set from The Dark Knight Rises is therefore confirmed.
Le Batman in white version that we discovered at San Diego Comic Con 2012 will be delivered in a set with the BatBoat, Mr. Freeze et Aquaman.
A set presumably inspired by the Ultimate Spider-Man animated series containing Spider-Man, J. Jonah Jameson, Doctor doom et Ultimate beetle, in a large plane, is also confirmed.
Another Spider-Man set containing the Spider-Man, Venom et Nick Fury in a vehicle is also on the program.
Hulk_Smash confirms that he only saw these four sets in the 2013 dealer catalog.
