Hopefully mine will arrive soon. Can imagine it's like getting a brand new one back in the day. Closest you're going to get without going back in time! I had a couple as a kid mid 70s, the fire going in/ out the exhaust. Loved it
Bought one myself! When it arrives I'll shoot a comparison vid on my channel as well! I own a '78 (April) 267 in pristine condition. Me Gran bought it for me in June of '78. Great vid thanks for sharing!
A great replica that is true to the original and mine also came upside down in the box with Robin rattling around inside. I still have my Batmobile, Batboat and Batcopter from around 1978 still boxed and in mint condition.
My brother and I each had one of the originals in about 1974ish. We quickly lost the rockets, so snapped off pieces of matchsticks became the replacement rockets. We later got the bat boat and batcopter. I wish I still had them…
I remember mine . I played with it to destruction . Lost the figures of course . Probably inside an old hoover like most 😊 . I had the bigger version too and bat man and robin . Destroyed them too and the Batmobile in some way . Much fun and memories 👍🏻
Well I noticed that you said you wouldn't go too far into the various versions, then you did 😂. You refer to the finish as matte. To my eye it seems more shiny than matte. I would refer to it as satin. Thanks for the video! Have fun with your toys.
Your original could do with a dust, my friend - 1/2 inch paintbrush should suffice. Interesting that the Corgi Club membership offers that little bit extra. In truth, I prefer the matte finish - tho' there's nothing intrinsically wrong with your '67 model.
The colour on the batmobile is more of a Satin black and not a full blown matt black. If it was matt as stated here and elsewhere, it would be a very dull and non-reflective black.
Great review thank you for sending me back in time@@@@@ I had one of these as a child. I'm now 60

I had this toy. Thanks, Mum and Dad
I still have it along with the boat and helicopter.
Never got round to getting the original so might have to pull the trigger on this one and purchase it..cheers..!!
I have about 20 of them and various smaller versions in a box to rebuild with all the new parts its a rainy day project

Ah yes,the matchsticks,that we used to light😅
It’s beautiful! I prefer the matte. I had at least five Corgi Batmobiles from the late 60s to the early 70s. Why didn’t I save them😢
Thank you!

Great 👍
I’m still waiting for my reissue
Does the knurled wheel launcher free wheel backwards. Mine turns pretty freely when turned towards the back or the car?
@@DENSUTUBE2008 yes, it does. The originals ratchet in both directions.
Got the original 007 Aston Martin. Never came to receive the Batmobile for Christmas 😭

Brilliant. I was hoping you'd do another unboxing video for the Batmobile rerelease.
1966 would be the best number for when the show came out

@@andrewtongue7084 you're not wrong! Didn't notice the dust until I watched it back 😂

I always wondered why Robin had the massive cape and Batman's was Robin sized.
Where was the original version build? a bit difficult to see on the video.

I'm looking for a re-issue Batmobile WITHOUT towhook. Where can I get one? Regards.

I'm sure he plans to eat it. He's had the spork out for the whole video
Is it the Same Size as the Original?
After 60 years, you need to allow for colour fade.
Batman & Robin appear homosexual on the box.

how sad .....
