A guy on FB just got hold of the EAGLEMOSS Batcopter, so put in a HOT WHEELS Batmobile and a Jada Nano Batcycle and changed the backdrop. Now word on Batboat. Now he nees to add the Corgi Jr Batman and Robin figures to the Batcopter and Batmobile.

Just in case you were wondering which scales fit together:

Found a 2025 Hot Wheels 1966 Batmobile in Target today. This one has a blue grey colour with red and light blue "lightning" pinstripes. It's been a while since I've found a HW TV Series Batmobile out in the wild.
Re: Diecast (Hot Wheels, Corgi, Matchbox, etc.) appreciation thread
I’m just glad that they sell for $1.25 or less. I remember when they were just $.92 at Walmart.
Also, I’ve been seeing a couple of the 60th anniversary James Bond Goldfinger Aston Martin hot wheels. I think these are from last year, but they are just now showing up here.

Yeah, the price increase of Hot Wheels in Walmart happened around 2021-2022 during COVID. Along with picking up '66 Batmobiles when I find them, I also collect James Bond diecasts. Haven't seen the 60th Anniversary Goldfinger Aston Martin, but will be keeping an eye out for it. For Bond cars, I have been finding several in the Hot Wheels Premium / Pop Culture line. These cost more, but have metal bases, "real riders" wheels and are generally better quality.
Re: Diecast (Hot Wheels, Corgi, Matchbox, etc.) appreciation thread
Yes, I have seen those. About $6.99. I have collected a few, but I have a decent collection of the old Johnny Lightning Bond cars in that scale.

Good buddy Mikey M from these very boards texted me a pic of a Batboat from hotwheels on the card-- looks like it might have wheels, but no trailer. I'll leave it to him to post his pic.

It certainly does appear to have wheels. That’s different.
Sort of a combination of Batboat and SpongeBob Squarepants “Boatmobile.”

Standard, old-school Hot Wheels-sized, which are designed in a 1:64 scale, meaning that each model is 1/64th the size of the actual vehicle it represents. This scale allows for detailed miniature replicas that are typically about 3 inches long. I've seen the photo on various Hot Wheels forums this week.
