Scalextric 1989 Batmobile C4492
Переглядів 607Місяць тому
Another creation from the gang at Hornby Hobbies. This replaces, in more accurate form, the older version C465 which was frankly very disappointing! Apologies for the poor quality of filming... I totally screwed up the camera settings, but you can only inbox something once!
River Eamont, Pooley Bridge

Paddling from Park Foot down the Eamont and back onto Ullswater. A difficult task when the river level is low. There is also a weir half a mile away which makes it a one-way street if you choose to go over it!

Kayaking after dark
Переглядів 5110 місяців тому
Leaving Bowness-on-Windermere Camping & Caravanning club site, through Ferry Nab car park & onto the lake, we paddled around Belle isle and back. You can hear the jackdaws squabbling as they come in to roost on the island. There were bats too, but it's too dark for the camera to pick these up.
Buying a second German Shepherd

After careful consideration, we decided to add another Shepherd to our home, largely due to our current dog, Storm seeming depressed. She loves other dogs and was unhappy coming home alone after her walks. We returned to the same breeder and chose a half-sister to keep her company.

i wonder if they will ever release the 270 model with the tyre shredders? Or maybe those would be such a choking hazard for children they won't risk it?
Sorry, but you have not a circuit ......🤔
Great review, I love the passion, and witty too!!
@@t4nk3r4l1f3 appreciate that, thank you!
Corgi have messed about with different versions of the DB5 and decided to change the original silver 261 with a gold one which still sold well but it was actually based on the 1958 DB4 and had a different rear light cluster to the one in the film, Goldfinger. They also omitted the tyre shredders and rotating number plates but as it still sold millions, Corgi wouldn't be that bothered. Finally Corgi got their act together and produced a 261 in original silver with all the features including tyre shredders, rotating number plates and the correct DB5 rear light cluster in a 50th anniversary edition. Halleluiah. It was a limited edition and to my mind would be a more valuable collectors piece for the future if kept in pristine condition as it is the only true replica to the one in Goldfinger. I picked mine up for £25.00 from the Corgi Model club but you still see original 1964 battered versions going for twice that amount and more, on E-Bay. Corgi Model club have now re produced the original 267 version of the Batmobile due out in October 2024 for £40.00. Get your pre order in as I'm sure this will also be a limited production. See link. corgimodelclub.com/products/267-batmobile-with-batman-and-robin-gloss-edition
@@user-pi7xr9gi6s great to see the Batmobile coming. I'm already a subscriber of that club, so will be getting the exclusive matt black version in October. Looking forward to that very much! Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts 👍
@@lorez8388 unfortunately they are not doing the matt black version and it will be the later gloss version which I don't mind as it was like the original. I just wish they would get the continuity right sometimes and added the pinstripes, clear windscreens and the drag chute packs at the back which were on the original car.
@@user-pi7xr9gi6s it won’t be available in the Corgi shop, just for those on monthly subscription. Either way, exciting to see what they do with them!
Great review. Gotta get one.
Best regards from mexico
Thx Lorenz
The thing with Dinkey, noticeably with the Eagle,Angels & Interceptor is there market research ( which probably amounted to a pub lunch) led them to believe kids would find mainly white toys boring.
Wonderful Video!
I've got the one from the sixties. I'm 70 now and I've kept all my toy cars. Also the Man from UNCLE and the Bat Mobile.
Hi - what Nm did you get on your new strut please
THANK YOU! I was trying to find a way to flip my falcon without the panels opening and open the interior
I tried this mod today, and it was incredible, thank you so much!
That is a way cool feature. Scalextrix makes some sweet slot cars!
wonderful video, thank you.
very enjoyable video, thank you.
It's not my favourite Gerry Anderson vehicle design but I might have to get one. I've got the Angel Interceptor, which I absolutely love. I wonder if they're going to reissue Joe ,90
I tried this as well and it didn't work exactly the same. The top part of the middle hinged section doesn't lie down all the way and I didn't like that
Keep those slotcar videos coming!!
'Ome M'Lady? Home Parker". Yeah, Hornby out did themselves on this one! its a Work of Art! They even made the Lights so they "Fade In and Fade Out" like 1960's Lights! Now that is real Attention to Detail! Yeah, I would not be brave enough to send it Round the Track, it would be an NRFB for sure with me...
Do you know the model number of the gas strut , ive got the same motorhome
Nitro lift GS6-15-220-260
I’m shocked it’s not just a upgraded Dinky! I thought that’s all the Corgi Gerry Anderson stuff is. Is it better to scale it was representing? Or was it cost cutting? And is the base or bottom half die cast too, or plastic like the later matchbox ones? And I agree with the TB2 I honestly don’t understand why they haven’t got rid of the obvious buttons (even paint them differently so they blend in.) But why not use a fake panel as a button, doesn’t ruin the looks and is discreet. But I have always hated it had plastic thrusters and legs (the dinky one had better detailing for the inside of the thrusters.) I would rather all metal, and more detail on it, more pods, vehicles, attachments, stands, fake thruster flames, for all the TB! Hope they make a TB5. Also the new Stingray could have been a bit better more gadgets, and just a bit bigger. Glad they made diecast version of it thiugh. And have you seen the new DB5 I was excited looks good, but then it’s only half way there. Doesn’t have the all the gadgets if the original. Why? I would happily pay more for such. I would love to see a new mould with extra details and all the gadgets and maybe more of the DB5 too. They know we want it so why aren’t they doing it? It’s blowing my mind. Sorry for the long post it’s just so annoying sometimes. Thanks for the video im close to preordering one and maybe a few more items.
🇨🇦have this!on my sci fi display.
Great video thank you
Oh wow, this is so nice and helpful
It was gold to celebrate Goldfinger film and a silver version followed with the red plastic shredders, hope this informs your viewers
I have a 261 - 1965 Playcraft DB5 made in UK, but is the new car from the CMC also made in UK or a Chinese import ?
Everything is made in China these days. If it was made in the UK, I expect no one could afford one
Hi Lorenz! I fitted a 2200W inverter in my MB Sprinter. Similar configuration as you have with a leisure battery. I used an original MB start battery, AGM type,220Ah, 1150A. Will this battery do the job? What kind of battery do you use? I didn't change the alternator yet, its still the original one of a normal Sprinter van, not like in a camper van?! Regards, Edwin
I've got my fifty-odd-year-old very battered and treasured Dinky SPV on the bookshelf behind me and I think it's going to have a sister.
Lol. love it!
MAL FILMADO ! 😢
You want Hollywood?
Both cars missed the “tire rippers”?
The plastic clips to the track, as the car passes it activates the level triggering the ejector seat.
Oh what a beauty! My local model shop had one in, I was tempted but it's a lot of money to pay for something that would just be displayed in my cabinet and not run! I watched Thunderbirds growing up but not obsessive about collecting memorabilia... I'd be too concerned about damaging it during a crash, to run it on the track.😊
They are expensive, can’t argue with you there!
This was very useful thanks, when I initially looked at the clips it all looked baffling but thanks to your video I have the strut off and bolts out am almost ready to refit but what is the blue tube of goo?
It’s thread lock. Helps stop it working loose 👍

I would love to see scalextric/hornby make the Captain Scarlet SPV & SPC the fab 1 is a beaut
Lovely paddle , did you launch from the caravan site there ? Just curious as trying to plan a trip and apparently there’s a barrier on kettlewell carpark now which was my original plan . 😊
Yes, we were staying there. There are signs for park & sail at the rugby club, but not sure on the details.
I still got mine in prestige condition. Have to replace batteries though. I also got box set from 1992.
This was a massive lost opportunity for Corgi. I had originally wanted one when they first announced it, but seeing the gross shape and detail errors, I no longer want one. The hull is the wrong shape, the iconic missile-tubes are massively wrong in shape (should not be squared-off at the back like that!), it's just so so so very disappointing compared to what could have been.
I salute your knowledge. Hadn't noticed the tubes til you mentioned it.
How about a Terror Fish to complement Stingray, that would be cool.
I'd vote for that!
Beautiful!
Ooooooh! As if my collection is not already big enough! 🤩
😂
Thank's, did Corgi make the Supercar and do they ship to USA ?
Thanks for this. I’ve got one on pre-order. You have allayed my fears 😀
That's done it for me, got to order one now, after being the owner of the Dinky model as a kid, and which my old ma gave away when I was a teen, bless her. Hope they bring out the whole Captain Scarlet range after seeing this. Thank you.
You won't be disappointed. It's a beaut!
I think you were unlucky with the dust bits in the paint, mine came in perfect condition.
Biggest Scalextric models ever I think have to have been the Leyland Roadtrains from back in the 80's, both were full artics with the trailer too. They were... Interesting to race with. Can I give you a tip, run it occasionally, but don't go fast or risk coming off. It's a nice model and should be run but not for racing by any means.
Road trains, wow! Thanks for the tip, I have run it at reasonable speeds since making this vid. Love it. Thanks for the comments, appreciated.
How much is it pls
Love the switch from Techno Pop to Cheesy Lounge music.
Both very cool the dinky one is impressive for it's time 👍
