I really like the sdcc version of the classic style batmobile but won't pay those prices and can't find the instructions yet.  So that leaves me to using the LDD to figure it out and parting it through bricklink. Has anyone tried to recreate this? I'm stuck on the back end due to lack of pictures.  And on the front bumper how the two center pieces http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3049 connect so closely.  If anyone has found pics of the back end the link would be appreciated. 

i'm going to bricklink this set once i figure out how many elements are already in my spare bins.  hopefully, this will save me 1-2 orders.

I'm doing the same, I just need to find a few minutes to go through stuff.

A bit of BL advice if anyone can help?

 

I have found a UK store who has 48 of the items. If I purchase them will they be deleted from the wanted list and leave the remaining wants or do I have to manually update the list?

 

Thanks

You will have to manually update your Wanted List.

 

I would make a note in the Remarks field on your Wanted List as to the store that you ordered it from, but refrain from deleting the item from your Wanted List until you've received it.

 

You just never know when you've messed up your order, or the person packing it forgets to include something.  You want to make sure you know how many you still need, if you don't get the right amount in your order.

I'm new to BL too, but what I did was llaced my first large part order, then manually deleted what I had ordered until I was finished.

If theres a way to automatically do it, I do not know.

Appreciate the info...

There as easier way that I have had success with. Using an app called brickstore you can download a parts list of your orders from Bricklink then subtract those orders from your master set list. It works quite well.

Between the parts I have on hand and 3 Bricklink orders, I was able to put 2 x SDCC batmobiles together for about $30.  Now  I need to figure out the cheapest way to get my hands on the Juniors minifigs.

ok who is this?

And so it begins. Someone should message the guy asking for a sample image from the PDF file he's selling to see what it looks like. It would be amusing if the instructions looked awfully familiar.

I still have two outstanding orders.  Looks like in my hurry to order parts I got some extras of some parts.  Maybe I will make a Batmobile factory and make my fortune!!!!! haha.

Just recieved everything I ordered and found a problem. It should be a 4 x 4 Wedge Cut Corner in Red NOT 3 x 3!

I got everything in except the front center red wedge and the jet for the back. I couldn't wait anymore so I decided to put it together anyway.

Sorry for the less than optimal lighting.

I just updated the Wanted List typed out in the code box of my older posts here. It now should add two red 4x4 wedges and the single black 1x2 tile has the printed screen same as the actual set. Thank you for pointing out what I managed to miss.

Well done. I like it a little better after seeing it built actually.

My bad on the 3x3 that should have been 4x4. Must have jumped right from the black 3x3 and copied it over and made it red. Thanks for updating TOK. 

Thanks guys, looks like I'll have to place another order for some 4x4 red wedges.

I started getting parts just by looking at the pics at Toyark and other sites . The red and black corner pieces were the 1st batch I ordered before I found this site. Waiting one last order before I can build the car.

 

Is the instruction for the Rocket Raccoon's Warbird online anywhere, I really want to build a mini Milano base on that plan.

Here is a time lapse build video with a link and pictures for a pictorial review of the set.

In all it's glory. You can see where the gap is missing in the back of the red wedges. Can be solved with a red 2x1 if you don't want exact.

 

Swapped out Robin's arms to light flesh ones with green gloves to better match the 60's outfit. There are no light flesh legs though. Get on that Juniors set people, cause it's gonna be gone before you know it!

 

Thank you again TOK for putting all of this together~!

 

I just ordered some red 4x4 red wedges, luckily I found a store with a good stock of Tusken Raiders, so I picked up a few of those in the lot too.

After a lot of messing around between comparing images of the build on the box and even the original vehicle itself, this is what I managed to come up with. It does not use the full 152 piece count displayed on the box but I did use some big plates and bricks for the areas you cannot see. Knowing how Lego likes to use smaller bits in place of larger single ones (such as 2 2x4s instead of a single 2x8), I could replace some to bulk up the count. Still I feel like I did a respectable job with all things considered and am proud of the results.

I have absolutely no idea what the back area really looks like other than guessing how Lego would tackle it themselves and glancing at the side shots eyeing the separation lines between bricks. Plus I compared sources of images for the box on eBay and the original car from the 1960s. Now before you jump my case, the dome piece does exist in black without any sort of printing which means this is completely Bricklinkable! Well, eventually anyway when The Phantom set from Star Wars Rebels is released or at least available to all.

At this point the main areas I question are the seating area, the rear, that thing in the middle separating the driver from the passenger, and the placement of the antennas. If only there was an overhead shot and a back shot, this could be perfect. Until then here you go.

Here is a review of the Batmobile which could give you a better look of the interior:

Man, how old is that power station you have all your stuff plugged into?  I have one of those that's all yellowed too, but I think it's in a tote somewhere.

Extremely...at least 1997ish. It's been wonderful to me and gone through every computer i've owned and don't ever want to give it up!

thank you so much for your work on putting an inventory list and instructions together! after searching high and low for better info, this was the holy grail!
