Hot Toys Batmobile 1989 1/6 photo review
Finally, finally - the Batmobile 1989 by Hot Toys arrived at my door today. Got it directly from Sideshow Collectibles, thanks to the great customer service with organizing the international shipping. Get your Hot Toys Batmobile 1989 through this link.
A first look at this amazing display piece before we go into a short review:
Some additional info on the order / deal itself: Sideshow seems to give international buyers a discount on the shipping costs. I paid around 130 USD just for shipping Fedex. Fedex declared the package weight around 140 lbs, the blonde Fedex chic definately had problems taking this bad boy out of the van, so I gave her a hand of course. :) After unboxing the net weight of the batmobile is around 40 pounds.
Right now I have no clue what customs charged and what the taxes will cost, but expect to be another 100 USD. So all in all this piece will be quite costly, even if you live near to Sideshow from what I've heard.
