Wheels in the front: No way that Batmobile could knock down walls. Someone...prove me wrong, other than "it's a movie" retort heh.

 

[Excelsior]

why couldn't he? Those aren't "normal" wheels anyway.

 

[broon]

It's a movie.

 

[DaTT]

1:6 scale...thats fricking huge.

 

[Horus]

It can when it has .50 caliber machine guns, and a massive-ass cannon on the front of it.

Why knock down walls, when you can blow them apart?

Fix your title so people don't come in expecting a Batman Returns thread and see a spoiler for Batman Begins instead.

 

[biostud]

It's one friggin ugly piece of wheels.

 

[iwantanewcomputer]

that is a POS compared to the old batmobile from the animated series

 

[Demon-Xanth]

The wheels were made for sprint car racing.

I'm pretty sure it's impossible for such a vehicle to "fly" across a river with a bridge anyway. It would make more sense to use a boat. But yeah, you can't knock down walls with tires. They will break.

i had a chance to test out this badboy...it's HUGE and can actually move pretty quickly
i know there's a smaller model, but why did they make this beast?

I think the intent was for it fly across with drag lines, and that part of the project never worked properly. At least that's how it was explained in the film.

Why do people come in here asking why something in a FICTIONAL environment will not work in REALITY? If you really can't figure this one out, do us all a favor and jump off a bridge.

momentum of a tank = obliterated wall

I got to "Tech Babe Asia" on that link and gave up on the Batmobile.

 

[Proletariat]

Who the hell cares?

The movie was f***ing amazing thats all that matters. Nitpicking ruins EVERYTHING.

 

[mobobuff]

Holy crap that's huge. I want one!

Wait... so is the RC model rear-wheel steering? That would rock.

 

[venk]

wrong forum

 

[loic2003]

Apparently the american engineers said the vehicle couldn't be made for the film. Total impossibility. So they built it in england.

 

[Kelvrick]

I want that robot raptor....

On another note, one of the gadgets they had advertised there is sweet!
