In the worlds of comics, movies, and television, most Batmobiles are black. But Hot Wheels, in an effort to sell more model Batmobiles, have released many of their models in several different colours. Some are plain, some have stripes, flames, or other markings. There are also variations in window colours, and wheels.
The Batman: Arkham Asylum Batmobile first appeared in 2011, and was based on a vehicle used in the video game Batman: Arkham Asylum. Most versions have been black, with an exposed chromed engine.
Hot Wheels do not release their models for a given year entirely within the stated year. They actually begin releasing models late in the previous year. This version of the Arkham Asylum Batmobile is part of the 2022 Batman sub-series of five models, yet it was in the shops in late 2021. That is just plain confusing.
The model is dark green, with chrome details, and a black plastic base. Copyright date on the underside is 2010. The wheels are black, with grey detailing. The only tampo printed details are the red taillights. Another colourful Batmobile to collect.

Great stuff Paul, thanks for sharing. I like this green Batmobile. What does tampo printed mean?
