 Disappointed in Gotham August 4, 2008

My son was sooooo excited to receive his stealth launch vehicle.
It was a total bust! I would like to meet the 4 year old that is able to operate this toy. We wound up returning it within an hour of receiving it. We were both totally frustrated by then. My son was sooooo disappointed. Hope I can save another parent from the same experience

Don't let the my title fool you. This batmobile is by far very disappointing. I got it for my birthday just for show and curiosity. First of all, the bottom of the vehicle rubs against the ground with a separate pair of "mini" wheels on the bottom front. This makes the front wheels not turn on hard ground. On carpet however, they do turn. It comes with two buttons labeled as 1 and 2. The first one opens the top and sides revealing missiles and the bat pod. It's supposed to simulate "battle damage". It's really cool at first but can get annoying after awhile. I wish they would have done it like the movie, having the bat pod separate from the tumbler with the front wheels as the wheels for the pod. That would have been awesome but again, Mattel had a good opportunity and passed it up. The second button launches the bat pod, literally. Also cool but annoying after awhile. Mattel did however make the tumbler look realistic, but that's about it that's cool. Also, you can put a regular 5 and a half inch batman figure in the tumbler but only if the bat pod is deployed. Even then, the figure can move about aimlessly. On to the bat pod. Mattel did this right, for once. It looks very much like the one from the movie. The only drawback, however, is that the batman figure cannot come off. He is just stuck there. If you want one that can, get the bat pod by itself, which is what I might do. Anyway, that concludes my review. I hope it helps.
 Awesome Batmobile August 18, 2008

This is like 2 toys in 1: the Batmobile and the Batcycle from the movie. Both are very realistic and true to the actual Batmobile and Batcycle from the movie. When the launcher is activated, the motorcycle shoots out - going very fast and far. This is worth the money, and easy to operate. Highly recommend. Batman is molded onto the motorcycle, so he won't come off. Not a problem with me, because any action figure would fly off when the launcher was activated.
Not for small kids August 24, 2008

A very cool toy, but after watching my 5 year old try to play with it, I realized it's too tough for him. Mattel and other toy manufactures have to realize some day that not all toys have to shoot things. Let me explain. The roof and both sides open up so the Bat Pod can shoot out the center. The sides also reveal missile launchers. Not necessary . . . if only the center compartment opened up, the toy would be lightyears easier to use. I know it looks cool, but a 5 year old doesn't have the patience to reload the Pod and get the car back to #1 position. I hope this helps.
Too complicated for younger kids October 19, 2008

My son is 5 and struggles to get this toy reloaded after shooting the batcycle out of the batmobile. The first step is to load the batcycle in backwards until you feel a spring resistance and then hear a click, it can take a few tries. Then you need to perfectly align both side with the rocket launchers attached by pressing them under the car, while at the same time pressing the top part down to latch the car back into position. This is just too complicated for young kids. My son can get it on occasion, but most times asks my husband because even I struggle to do it. We've had it for about a month and the car sits, he just plays with batman on the motorcycle. The age range on this toy should be higher.
