Throwback TV Police Cars from Greenlight!

In the Seventies, patrol cars from Ford, Dodge, Chevrolet, and others were readily found on the streets, as well as on many popular shows on television. Greenlight has recreated some of these familiar cars with true-to-scale detail, real rubber tires, and authentic TV show decoration. The functioning doors on these officially licensed replicas open to reveal the detailed interior.

Speed is an important aspect in a car, even more so if there's any chance of a high-speed car chase. One of the most recognizable cop cars from 70's tv shows like The Dukes of Hazzard and The A-Team is the Plymouth Fury, available now at 3000toys.com. In addition, the Hazzard County Sheriff Fury pairs perfectly with The General Lee (#964) by American Muscle, in stock only while supplies last.

Transformation of the Batmobile throughout History

Christopher Nolan's recent take on the Dark Knight, along with the highly-anticipated re-visioning of this iconic vigilante in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (to be released next year), has brought Batman to the front of our minds and made him a pop culture star once again. Today, we want to share with you how Batman became who he is today by showing you how he gets from place-to-place: the evolution of the Batmobile.

Eaglemoss - EM-BM012

The first "Batmobile" appeared in Detective Comics #27 in 1939, but was just a regular car with no special features. The first "Batmobile" with special features appeared in Detective Comics #48 in 1941. 

Eaglemoss - Em-BM009

The term "Batmobile" was not applied to Batman's automobile until issue # 48 of Detective Comics in February 1941; the Batcycle, Batboat, and Robin's Redbird soon followed.

As you'll be able to see below, the Batmobile has made many transformations throughout its appearances in TV Shows and Movies.
