New Hot Wheels Coming from Mattel!!!

In the world of television, some franchises transcend simple entertainment. They exemplify the values we strive to embody in our lives; things like tenacity, loyalty, friendship and fairness. For me personally, though, the original Star Trek TV series still stands far above other giants of TV history. Few shows have so impacted the lives of their viewers in such profound and immutable ways.

Gene Roddenberry's vision of the future shaped many of us as young people, myself included. I remember tuning in every week to see what Captain Kirk and his intrepid crew were up to. 50 years later, Star Trek continues to inspire generation after generation. In celebration of that legacy, Mattel has introduced these 50th anniversary commemorative Hot Wheels cars which feature some of your favorite characters from the original series.

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
Includes Display Case

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
Includes Display Case

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.

“Batman Forever” Batmobile was designed so that it looked like it had actual ribs and wings and to accentuate the lines the engine panels, wheels, and undercarriage were indirectly lit.

1997 Batman & Robin

The inspiration for this Batmobile came from older racing roadsters like the Jaguar D-Type and Delahaye 165. 

Eaglemoss - EM-BM003

2005 Batman Begins

Primary focus of this Batmobile is to make it as real as possible. It was 9 feet wide and 15 feet long and weighed about 2.5 tons, but still capable of going 0-60 mph in under six seconds.

                                    2008 Dark Knight

Mattel - X5496
Elite Cult Classic Collection

The Batmobile from “Batman Begins,” returns in this movie with a few features that were not seen in Batman Begins. It featured single-seat escape vehicle for Batman called the "Bat-Pod." The Bat-Pod is an open motorcycle-like vehicle formed by the front wheels and suspension of the car.

Keep your eyes open for the future changes in the Batmobile, because you never know what it will look like or what the features will be.
