EAGLEMOSS1989 BATMAN MOVIE MODELS

Some more Eaglemoss models, this time from the Tim Burton Batman movie that pretty much reinvented Batman for a new generation.



The  movie Batmobile with a small figure of Batman was the model given away with the first issue. The 3 D background shows the exploding Axis Chemical factory.


Subscribers got a free armoured version of the Batmobile being pointlessly shot at by two of Joker's goons.



The best subscriber's gift is the fantastic Batwing in a superb display box showing the city skyline by night.

  1. All interesting stuff.
    How many models are there likely to be, Scoop?

    1. There's supposed to be 80 in the normal set with additional 'specials ' ones along the way, Andy.

  2. Great shots Scoop. Its turning out to be a mammoth collection! I love how the Batman movie models echoes what I bought in toy shops at the time in 89, the Toy Biz action figures of Bats himself with his pull-string belt, Joker and his Goons and the sleek Batmobile. I think I bought an ERTL Batwing as well. I agree, yours is pretty damn cool too! Never rub another man's rhubarb!

    1. Thanks Woodsy, consider your rhubarb unrubbed!

      I love the first Tim Burton Batman movie and the vehicles, especially the Batwing, which as we know was designed by Derek Meddings.
