Zed_43 Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Hi guys, It's been a while I didn't posted any MOC. So here's a new one: The Tumbler batmobile inspired from the Nolan's movie saga the dark knight. I only work in a minifig scale, so I wanted it to be in a minifig scale. The batman doesn't fit in it for the moment. I've tried to modify it to make in fit but I didn't managed, but I have the hope to manage! Hope you will appreciate. Feel free to comment and criticise (Morever if you have ideas to improve it!)

DD840 Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Love it! Overheard a fellow at the PAB wall saying he was looking for bigger tires for a mini Tumbler and thought it was a great idea. Quote
Amset-Rah Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Reminds me of the Bane tumbler but better designed. It's a little too compact for my tastes, but that was a complaint with the Bane model too. Scaling can be a fickle mistress, but you nailed the look for sure. Quote
Zed_43 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Posted March 14, 2015 I'm happy you like it. @Amset, I wanted it to be in a minifig scale to include it in a city/super heroes layout. If it has been bigger, it wouldn't be in scale compared to city vehicules or buildings and roads. So that's why it is that compact. And making it this size was kind of a challenge... but I'm really happy with the result! Quote
Internets Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Love it. I agree with keeping it in LEGO town/city scale. A lot of the tumblers I see are hilariously oversized, including LEGO's own. Quote
Tijger-San Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 I like how you managed to get the irregular panel look on this scale! It looks really good! Quote
Cobb Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Any instructions for this thing? Wil help you out with finding a way to fit a minifig inside. Quote
Robin Creations Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Great job. I really like how the paneling turned out Quote
Balbo Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Amazing! One of the Tumblers I've ever seen I love the way you made the paneling. Quote
Zed_43 Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Thanks you all for your comments. I will try to make some photogtaphs of it partially parted out (don't know if it is correct to say that) to make you see how it is built. I really want batman minifig to fit in.
