Probably a stupid question, but does anyone think there might be any extras when this releases?

Same. The Batwing suffered from massive FOMO when Joost prepared to cutoff the preorders based on an undisclosed target, rather than a date. It sold out unexpectedly early when Joost posted the target was almost hit. Unfortunately, I think most of those late orders didn’t translate into actual deposits, which was frustrating for him. I notice the Batmobile cutoff was a date, which makes it less of an emotional decision for people.I got on the BatWing waitlist well after it started shipping and it converted pretty quickly.
I suspect collectors had buyer’s remorse once they realized how big a space commitment the BatWing was and cancelled.
Yeah it’s not discreteI’m on FB Jazzinc page and I see several Batwing’s to sell.
I’m quite sure people weren’t prepared to the gigantic size.

It really has to be wall mounted. Got my HD monitor arm coming in a week
Agreed, there will be far less Batmobile cancellations than BatWing due to the size.I'm sure there will be far fewer cancelations for the Batmobile than for the Batwing. Size is much more manageable and it's so damn gorgeous people will scrounge and find the money for it wherever they possibly can.
The size definitely plays a part, but we do have to keep in mind this version of the Batmobile is the most iconic ever made, I’d even argue over the 66 despite the overwhelming love for that one. While the Batwing looks fantastic wall mounted, it doesn’t have the details and paint job this has, this has been the closest a Jazzinc product has come to a downsized replica model of the real thing. I wouldn’t be surprised if any celebrity collectors or people who helped work on the films didn’t catch wind of this and snag one.Agreed, there will be far less Batmobile cancellations than BatWing due to the size.
Ecto is definitely overscaled. The figures are so dwarfed by it that I find it distracting having them next to it.Agreed, there will be far less Batmobile cancellations than BatWing due to the size.
The BTTF Delorean is probably one of the most collector friendly 1/6 vehicles due to the compact size.
I'm not sure if the Blitzway Ecto-1 is overscaled but that thing is a beast.

What made you decide to choose an off the shelf TV/monitor one versus the Strong Hold Displays?
I was on the fence about buying the Strong Hold Displays (due to the price) but that mount seems to be a common one that collectors are using. The mount included with the Batmobile does not seem sturdy enough.
Agreed. I think there’ll be a surge in interest once they start to ship.The size definitely plays a part, but we do have to keep in mind this version of the Batmobile is the most iconic ever made, I’d even argue over the 66 despite the overwhelming love for that one.

Always! After how expensive of a year 2023 has been, there was probably a good bit of people who couldn’t swing it along with everything else releasing, or just didn’t have the space. I expect there’ll be a big market looking for this after both this and the HT reissue are out in collections. Nothing gets people off the fence than collection photos.Agreed. I think there’ll be a surge in interest once they start to ship.
Would be cool if the remote was like a replica of the movie one lol@JazzInc , do you have any plans to have a Jazzinc remote control instead of generic white remote (for the lights and engine features) ? It doesn’t need to be exclusive for 1989 (although I wouldn’t mind having an exclusive one too, haha), maybe a more stylish controller that we can display together with our vehicles. Prob the same controller can be used for future products that needs remote controllers as well.
