Kenner all day. My top 3 Batmobiles Kenner Super Powers, Batman TAS and Batman ‘89. I definitely prefer my Batmobiles to be super heroic cars instead of tanks or tumblers. The McFarlane one is not bad as it’s own design but I feel that if you’re going to depart that much from the original why even bother trying to claim it’s the Super Powers version. Would also love to see a toy version based on Norm Breyfogle’s art for that Lamborghini on Bat-Roids look.
"The next round is articulation. And...yeah..." LOL. I actually own the original and the box (Don't ask how much I had to pay for that ... I didn't have that one as a kid - I got Toybiz Batmobile and then Kenner movie and animated series). But, yeah, the McFarlane one does look pretty cool. Props for making it a two seater like the original (there weren't many of those after the Toybiz one). Thanks for showing the Brave and the Bold Batman in there. Nice to see he can fit in the McFarlane one. Great video. I've enjoyed your content quite a bit since finding it recently. Thanks again!
@@5POAFigureReviews Thanks for the reply! Yeah, at least is right! :) Curious - how does a Spin Master Batman figure work in the McFarlane Super Powers Batmobile? Obviously they wouldn't be too big, but are they too small or does it work? Also since everybody's been doing a Batman '89 Batmobile it'd be cool if Todd did one for Super Powers. He is doing a black suit version of the recent Super Powers Batman after all. The Spin Master one lacked any fun features - they put them all on the RC version which looks amazing!
I own both. Still have my og 1984 in it's box. It's better hands down. I do love the Wirlybat and I do hope the line continues and Macfarlane fills out the roster of 1975- 1980s DC. Kara, Barbara, Dinah, and Selina all deserve figures.
@@5POAFigureReviews The Wirlybat is an interesting piece. I like it a lot. I don't care for the Batman who Laughs or Flashpoint Batman as these are not '80s characters. I think the timeline needs to stick to '75-'90.
Got mine this Chrismas. It is a great vehicle, but I'm starting to hater the ram being activated by that bat symbol in the front. It is way too easy to activate it by mistake. And the painted front lights are just meh. But I do love the orange glass and sets, the wings in the back and the big-size weels. Still, the original one is way better because of the several action features and those being activated by controls in the car driving position itself, much like Batman, and not you, is the one activating it.
I really loved the new batmobile, great video jason, I would love the dc kenner and marvel toy biz era, but I really like hasbro and mcfarlane so im not complaining.
Thanks so much! Yeah, this is a really nice Batmobile. Honestly between this, the McFarlane Keaton, and the new Spin Master it's been a great year for Batmobiles
The new one is a great design. But I did pass on it purely for space issues. I have the original super powers Batmobile and the McFarlane 66 Batmobile in my Super Powers display. Hope they do the 89 in the superpowers scale. Keep up the great work
Great review. I really like these batmobiles. They’re both really cool. For the longest time I didn’t want McFarlane figures because I wanted ones to go with my 6 inch figures. Then I ordered Batman and joker. I was happy. The same may happen with super powers. Also, I’m trying to grow my channel but I’m not gaining any new subscribers. Any tips to grow my channel? Most friends don’t really like dc stuff sadly. You’re one of my biggest inspirations to make figure reviews too.
I’m gonna have to go with the og. I do like the new one, but if they were both available. I’d def go with the og over the new model. Also the og is the one I grew up with.
I will always love the original but i prefer the new mcfarlane one i especially like how its closer to the Burton film. I picked it up last week its fantastic
If it's the one I think it is, the one with the red and blue cel shading, I reviewed the official release. Probably would not be picking it up if it is, but I have more Venom videos coming
@@5POAFigureReviews the kenner prototype sketches feature it. I was very close to rush out and buy the new one, but I still have a kenner in excellent condition. I dig the new one fine, just needed a lil more effort for me. Underneath my Kenner one, it looks like he has freaking hover jets. Prob my fav toy vehicle ever.
I love the kenner one. Not a fan of this. I really wanted to like it. From the side the new one looks to zanny, which is fine, just not my style. Don't like the choice of windshield and the fins, wish they wouldnt have strayed as far from the original. Oh well, im glad others like it.
They both work, but the original was the one that was shown for years on Superfriends, they got that one just right.
Very good point!
Sorry Uncle Todd, but the vintage one is PERFECTION...
Agreed!

I also prefer my batmobiles to look like bat themed cars rather than tanks
Agreed!
the og will always be cool but the mcfarlane one still looks good did a great job on updating it definitely gonna have to pick it up
I'm pleasantly surprised by it

You're very welcome! Thank you for the kind words. I can only imagine you dropped a least a couple hundred on yours.

One could not ask for more than you supplied in this review, mate.
Thanks so much! I I really do try to think of everything I myself would want to see in a review, so your comment is much appreciated!

Haven't decided if I am going to get the whirly bat or not, but I have the new set of Batman, Tim, and Dick

I've been looking for a video like this.
I'm glad you found it!
The McFarlane toys look cool good video I give it.10/9👌🦇
Nice! Glad you like it
new one looks like the SpyroMobile
Dude you're right!!! Ha!
Really cool box
They did a really good job

Great review! Would it fit for the 3,75 inch Infinite Heroes DC (Mattel 2008)? The Batman has a rigid plastic cape. Thanks!
The new one is a great design. But I did pass on it purely for space issues. I have the original super powers Batmobile and the McFarlane 66 Batmobile in my Super Powers display. Hope they do the 89 in the superpowers scale.
Keep up the great work
Thanks so much! Sounds like you have some good ones!
I don’t have either of them yet but aesthetically I think McFarlane’s looks better but I wouldn’t be surprised if the Kenner one had more play value

Thanks so much for the kind words. Let me take some time to watch some of your videos and I will get back with you in a couple days
I’m gonna have to go with the og. I do like the new one, but if they were both available. I’d def go with the og over the new model. Also the og is the one I grew up with.
Can't blame you!
Really cool and have you reviewed the marvel legends scorpion
I haven't. I do have him though, and I may yet
Which one the retro card or homecoming
McFarlane toys looks cool good video I I read 10/9
Thanks!
It's the OG batmobile for me. They should have simply given it a subtle update or used the original cast again.
Agreed
Excited to grab one for my kids since they have figures that will fit 😂
Nice! I am sure they will enjoy
I kind of wonder if we will get Robin's Red Bird car from the comics
They have been pretty generous with the vehicles in this line, so always possible!
Great!!
Thanks!
I will always love the original but i prefer the new mcfarlane one i especially like how its closer to the Burton film. I picked it up last week its fantastic
Totally fair! It's a great new version
will you do a review of the retro wave Venom from AliExpress?
If it's the one I think it is, the one with the red and blue cel shading, I reviewed the official release. Probably would not be picking it up if it is, but I have more Venom videos coming
@@5POAFigureReviews some people think it's a high quality bootleg
Can't beat the original. More features, controlled in the freaking cockpit. I wish the new one could have a full closing canopy bubble windshield.
That would have been cool!

Will a mezco bats fit?
I don't have a Mezco Batman, but I did try my Mezco Superman for you and it did not fit. Sorry.

I hear ya. Someone in the comments compared it to the Spyromobile and now I can't unsee it lol
There is ZERO comparison. The OG SP Batmobile is one of the best vehicles ever made.
It really is
Can't beat Kenner!
They set the standard for everyone
The McFarlane one just looks cooler
Honestly, it really does. I was thiiiiiiis so to giving it to McFarlane in Presentation.
Hi
Hello
I always hated that gap on the old one. I always thought mine was broken due to that.
Ah yeah I can see that
First
Sweet!
For me, since playability isn't a factor, I like the look of the new McFarlane version better than the OG.
It's really nice looking
They should have had a super car. Just saying Supes may have got sick of flying at times.
They actually did make the super mobile! Though it's more like a shuttle with fists. I have a review of it on the channel along with Darkseid.
