Just another nerd.
It looks like Eaglemoss has a new line of Batmobile books that combines the diecast Batman vehicles from its Batman Automobilia diecast line with books that feature detailed cutaways of vehicles from Batman comics, movies and animated series.
First up is a book featuring cutaways of various vehicles from the Batman ’66 Classic TV series, along with a diecast version of the Batmobile from that series.
Hot Wheels has a series of Retro Entertainment die-cast cars out, including vehicles like the A-Team van, Magnum P.I.’s Ferrari, and the Knight Rider K.A.R.R. I picked up this nice Ecto-1.
However, there is one oddity here. The press materials on this says that the line will include classic vehicles driven in TV shows and movies, including classic Battlestar Galactica. Now maybe they’re going to do a classic Viper, but I’m hoping they go a different route.
(What the world really needs is fanfic depicting what happened when Captain Troy and Lieutenant Dillon tangled with the Sons of Anarchy.)
