This is supposed to be a 1:1 scale molded from the original Batmobile batphone. I think the seller is Clint Young, but not sure. He sells the same stuff Clint has on his website.

Any comments on size and accuracy versus the DC direct bank?

I'm no expert, and unfortunately I don't have the means to provide a screenshot, but to my eyes the repro's base looks too round, rather like the Diamond Select coin bank version (which I have "installed" in my car). The Batmobile Batphone seen close-up in The Joker Goes to School has more of an oval footprint, with front and back longer than the "sides."

These photos are older than internet dirt, from Glenn, aka G-Dog way back in Jan 2008, great shot of the base on the original
