Looking around Brickshelf, I couldn’t find many great interpretations of the awsome Batmobile from the 1989 film (there are a few good ones though). The Burtonmobile is easily the best looking Batmobile, and I felt that it was my duty to render it in bricks before anybody else did. This version accomodates the new Batman minifig. The cockpit slides forward to allow the figure to be seated.

Of course, the most frustrating part was waiting for the bricks I needed from bricklink. If anything, this MOC suggests you don’t have to be a good builder to get a decent result. I am quite pleased with how this one turned out.

Great work on what is easily my favourite batmobile. You’ve really made a sleek version in a relatively small scale. Does the cockpit actually slide or does it need to be removed first? If it does slide then you get even more points for that.
