Batman 1989 Limited Edition Black Chrome Batmobile Exclusive Is Back up for Pre-Order
Earlier this year, Jada Toys launched a 1:24 scale die-cast Batmobile vehicle based on the 1989 Tim Burton Batman film starring Michael Keaton in a black chrome finish. It was an limited edition of 2000, but Jada only sold some of the edition directly. Now, a portion of the remaining stock is available here at Entertainment Earth (exclusive) priced at $59.99 with a release date set for December. There's a good chance that it sells out by the end of the day, so reserve one while you can. You won't be charged until it ships.
The 1989 die-cast Batmobile edition vehicle features an opening cockpit, rubber tires, and rotatable weapons in addition to the exclusive black chrome finish. it also includes a 2 3/4-inch die-cast Batman figure. The packaging for the Batmobile is individually numbered.
When Jada's 1989 Batmobile Black Chrome edition sells out, you'll have to grab it here on eBay with a markup attached. You can also settle for the standard release die-cast Batmobile in black, which is available here on Amazon and here at Entertainment Earth for $27.99. You can't go wrong with that version either. The only difference between the limited edition and the standard edition is the paint. Additional Jada Toys Batman vehicles can be found here on Amazon and here at Entertainment Earth.
