Noble Collection Batpod

[DevilinthePaleMoonlite]

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find some good information or a review on the noble collection batpod. I collect 1:18 scale Batman vehicles and it's hard to find a batpod at that scale this is the closest thing I can find at about 11 inches long. I think it would look great next to my hot wheels elite tumbler, but I just want to make sure before dropping $100 on it. Any information would be greatly appreciative!

Just google it :)

Saw it in a store it wasn't very impressive... And lacked a lot of detail.

Yeah guys I did google it, and I just couldn't find any quality images of it or no real reviews at all. I did in fact watch the above youtube video twice before posting and asking for opinions. Idk something looks off about it, it looks almost to silvery or something, but it's the only comparable 1:18 diecast batpod I can seem to find.

That's awesome.

And of course I did google before I ever posted finding nothing but crap images. I even pulled up the real batpod images to compare. I feel I just can't see enough of the noble collection Batpod to actually pull the trigger, which is why I was asking for your guy's help!

IMO it looks kinda like a transformer or something :S. Too much engine, and as you said too much silver.

Try mwctoys.com - always go there when I'm looking at a figure to buy :)

After looking around this looks to be my only choice at the scale that I am looking for. The hot toys one is too big and there was a movie masters target exclusive that retailed for $20, but now is going for around $90, and I'm not paying that for a plastic item. Wonder if hot wheels or anyone may do a new release since the batpod is going to be in TDKR?

Another option is the Blu-Ray Batpod edition.. It's about 1:18 scale (if I compare the wheels on this and my Hot Wheels 1:18 Tumbler) and, IMO, looks better than the Nobel one.

Is it die-cast or just plastic? ...and thanks for the suggestion!

Noble Collection is terrible, they try to catch all the "sucker collectors" who don't do enough research or don't know that they can get something better and typically more accurate, detailed, and possibly even MORE functional elsewhere.

When I wanted a real Indiana Jones whip, Noble tried to pass theirs off as the real deal. What a joke. They're good if you want knick-knacks but I'd never buy a movie prop from them unless I wanted sub-par quality.

It is plastic, and it's soft so the machineguns bend if you force them :P. But I would deffinatley go for that one for about $30 instead of the Noble one for $100.

The Batman and Harry Potter pieces that my wife and I have purchased are quite nice.

Always loved this piece. Never knew it was Noble.
Too bad they are so expencive where I live :(..

Hot wheels is doing a Cult Classic Elite Batpod for TDKR coming out this October so I'm just gonna be patient and pick that up!

[jesperbernhardsson]

^Thats probably the best thing to do! I think Hot Wheels is way more accurate!

Yes, I have the blu-ray one and it's pretty detailed.

Actually it depends on the property. For some reason their Harry Potter stuff is top notch for the most part. I have almost every piece and have only been disappointed a couple of times.

I am looking at buying this as well. Does anyone know what scale the Mattel one is? I know it is 12 inches long.

I just want my Mattel Batman to be able to sit on the Hot Wheels one. If they are the same size that would be perfect.
