Photos & Mini-Review of Round 2's 1/32 Batmobile
Thursday, May 13. 2010
It's been a while since I've had a chance to post, but I wanted to make sure you all got to see the return of the classic Aurora Bat (I just picked it up from the hobby store a couple of hours ago):
Overall, I'd say Round 2 has done a nice job here. As the last photo shows, the fine detail work of the grilles and license plate has held up pretty well, and there is remarkably little flash considering the age of the tooling. The chrome looks nice and bright with no swirls or color tints, and the parts look very straight. The proportions are nowhere near as accurate as the Hot Wheels castings, but that's to be expected since this is a repop of the old Aurora kit. Definitely a worthwhile purchase, and it gives us all something to do while we await the all-new 1/25 version due out later this year.
Where to Purchase:
Amazon.com
has it for $16.29 - $19.95
Entertainment Earth has it listed for $21.99
