Do you remember when the Star Wars movies would come out and everyone would wait outside in long lines, dressed up in their favorite character from the movies?

With the new Batman movie coming out, The Dark Knight, wouldn’t it be nice to take it up another notch and roll up to the premiere in your own original Batmobile from the Tim Burton Batman movies?

Holy rusted metal! You mean we can!?! (Sorry, that was my poor attempt at a Robin quote).

Anyways, right now on eBay, this Batmobile owner is selling one of the five original cars from the movies. Despite the lack of doors (you’ll have to be limber enough to jump through the roof), it does come with a 5.7 liter engine hidden beneath that 20-feet frame.

Cape, Bat Cave and traits to becoming a vigilante of the night are not included.

Actually, the character brought to life by Tim Burton didn’t really make this silly, rather it was molded together by Christopher Locke, who makes spider-sculptures from scissors that are confiscated at airports. Apparently you can buy the hardware at TSA auctions.

Want to build your own? Chris shows you how on his website and while you’re there, check out his portfolio of his other works.
