The Joker's Flying Saucer Hotwheels version

Post by rsaffle »

The Joker's Flying Saucer Hotwheels version. I love toys so I wanted to continue my line of faux Hotwheels toys that I would love to have. I also have a Hotwheel's Batmobile Parachute set floating around here somewhere if interested. 3D designed and printed the little ship and then had some fun designing the package art.


The Joker returns with his most diabolical scheme yet: build a high tech flying saucer and rule the universe. He plants rumors of an invasion from outer space, then sets out to gather the Beryllium metal needed to build an actual flying saucer. Batman picks up on his scheme and sends Alfred to check up on a stash of the metal. But when Alfred is mistaken for a mad scientist by the Joker, he is hauled off to the villain's lair along with Batgirl. The Dynamic Duo are on their way when a bomb planted by one of the Joker's henchmen goes off, leaving them unconscious, and their Batcave cut off from the rest of the world.

Out of this world! (See what I did there?!) :D

I vote we put Randy in charge over there at Mattel, who's with me?

I am! I can’t recall Mattel making a flying saucer before. If it had wheels, we could run it down an Orange Track, ;)

Thanks men. I would definitely up the Vintage Batman products at Mattel. Lol
Along with reissued Vintage toys like Big Jim and such.

I'm up for Big Jim parts. Maybe FTC. Abe Lugo is with Matchbox now, but is a big Batmobile fan (He designed the RS Batmobile in 1/16 scale). That's more in line with the Black Beauty by the way.

If you are interested, he might get a referral fee.

I was thinking that one of the Hot Wheels derivative lines might have a UFO/Flying saucer, but no luck so far, and certainly not in that shape.

Love this. My custom Verdigris wants one to scale.

Hi Ian,
Another great figure

Did you see Figures Toy Company is looking for collaborators and product Ideas.

I think you have some figures they might be interested in...

Thanks. There is no likeness agreement for the late Richard Bakalyan, I would assume.

I suspect that FTC did their line of G.O.O.N.s after I made these:

As silly as "Joker's Flying Saucer" was, I really enjoyed it. The "abandoned launching pad factory" still makes me laugh.

Yeah, rsaffle, Hot Wheels really needs to do that saucer. Put it on hidden, transparent wheels, like George Jetson's futuristic vehicle:
