Chicago, IL (PRWEB) June 7, 2005 -- This summer, as Batmania once again takes
over America, fans will be looking for more than the Batman logo. They'll be
searching for the real thing -- and they'll find it in Corgi's Batman
Collectible Die-Cast Editions.
More than six decades of the legendary
Batmobile, as seen in the pages of DC Comics, have been captured in high
quality, realistic die-cast replicas that are certain to thrill any fan of the
Caped Crusader.
The Batmobile's changed a great deal since the bright red
roadster Batman used to tool around Gotham City back in the 1930s -- and these
remarkable replicas show this iconic vehicle in every step of it's remarkable
evolution. Here's a look at the Batmobile over the years:
The 1940s
Batmobile was compact and snarling, with a shark-like fin and a battering ram in
front.
The 1950s model was one of the coolest Batmobiles of all time.
When Batman hopped into this Batmobile he had a secret in the backseat: a full
laboratory!
In the 60s, the Batmobile sported two dramatic fins, and
featured pop-up surveillance equipment that emerged from the front
hood.
The 1970s-era version was one of the sleekest and most intimidating
Batmobiles ever. This hot little number combined the styling of some of the top
import coupes of the day.
In the 21st Century, the Batmobile has become
an ultra-modern, high-tech marvel, capable of covering any terrain to track down
the bad guys.
Corgi's Batman Collectible Die-Cast Editions presents all
of these amazing vehicles -- each loaded with moving parts and detailed features
-- and a host of other Bat- vehicles, including The 1960s Catwoman Catillac, The
1950s Two-Face Two-Tone Car, The 2000 Bat-Submersible, The Robin Cycle and many
more.
