Here is the first one of a full run. It is 120 issues and is Uk based at the moment.

Part two is soon

I saw that on World of Wayne's YouTube channel. I'm bummed that it's not available in the US.

 

[chefhawk]

Hopefully in the future you can get it over there.

cheers

Show-off I kid, I kid

Sorry, don't want to derail the thread (my pet peeve, and here am I doing it), but I've always wanted to build a kit of the Tumbler, it's so cool. Seem to be quite a few from different mfrs, though. Hm. Any quick suggestions other than this UK based kit?

Did you help build the full size Tumblers?

Did you help build the full size Tumblers?

I was the CAD designer on all 3 films. Had to complete the set . although the steel frame in the picture was designed by Andy Smith. My main involvement with the tumbler was designing the buck (interior and gamble) I also did the after burner, guns,wings. such a long time ago now. I got asked to work on the last one but there’s only so much Batman you need on your CV.

I helped build the 1:3 scale Tumbler for Dark Knight Rises.

Was that the one that drops through the ceiling?

Yes it is. And the ceiling...

 

[chefhawk]

So after hearing your amazing stories from the original filming, here is part two.

We dropped a real one. Nolan wanted all the cars destroyed so they couldn’t be used in another film only one remains
