Tumbler Evolution? The Next Batmobile

Could this be the next Batmobile? I remember reading or hearing somewhere that at the end of Batman Begins there was to be a shot of the Tumbler being modified. The idea was to Evolve it towards a "real" Batmobile. Could this be it? I like it. I like it a lot. Sort of looks like a cross between the Tumbler and the 89.

Man that thing is sweet. The lines are clean and sharp. I don't remember the tumbler being modified but I remember Wayne Manor being modified.

The drawing is killer, but the model leaves a little bit to be desired. If it looked exactly like the drawing it would be sweet!

RE: Tumbler Evolution? The Next Batmobile

actually, in early drafts of the script, the tumber was destroyed at the end of the film. seeing as how the sequel script isn't even finished, i'd say that it's safe to say that everything is still up in the air. :)

I definitely like the drawing more than I do the model. I don't like the back wings on the model and it's a little flat on top.

Isn't that Dan's car? I always send messages to people who bid on that stuff to just come here because we have it all for free. But wow, $7000, it's too bad he didn't go into detail. What a crock.

The model is ok, but the drawing is just that much better. The windshield is swept back more, etc. It just looks overall more sleeker.

RE: Tumbler Evolution? The Next Batmobile

I like it...but at this point think the wings are just a bit too ridiculous. I think that in the beginning it needs to have a significantly more military appearance to it, with very slight modifications to artistic/civilian details.

"but at this point think the wings are just a bit too ridiculous"

Now wait just a minute here, that's going too far!

Is it the drawing or the model hmmm?????

Jack's right, the original script had a pull out shot of the "improved" Tumbler being worked on by Bruce. How do I know? Easy, Mattel wanted a cooler Batmobile that they could release as a toy and diecast so that scene was added to the script. Something that looked more Batmobile than the military Batmobile was management's thinking. WB was ok with the addition but Nolan wanted no part of it. Surprisingly we didn't do anything different than what Hasbro did with Batman Forever. I don't care what anyone lays credit to but the toy guys at Hasbro designed the Forever car, Flattery just did the sketching. Man I sound like a bitter old designer...

Dave is that what the tumbler was suppose to transform into? I always thought that car was going to morph into something in the film but it never happened.

RE: Tumbler Evolution? The Next Batmobile

The Tumbler towards the end of the film was supposed to get banged up a lot more than it did. Then, in the last scene it's no longer just a Tumbler but has extra wings (stylized to look like bat wings) and other do-dads. This was a push from Mattel so they could come out with a cooler looking toy after they released the first one.

I think Nolan told them this movie wasn't being made to sell toys.

The drawing above was based on the script info and a rough storyboard image.

"...this movie wasn't being made to sell toys."

I like that...

I don't like any of the toys they did make. The only decent model is the one by Bandai but it's too small.

RE: Tumbler Evolution? The Next Batmobile

If there is a Tumbler design evolution I hope the design will retain the rugged military look combined with Batman's mods. I just hope there are no tall wings.

RE: Tumbler Evolution? The Next Batmobile

Okay NO Wings it is... Your wish is my command. Its time the car was let out of the bag. The model is mine!! I built it in about a day in a half and it's based on a totally original design by our pal Dave. I love the drawing but I was unable to capture some of the finer points of it. The picture below is what the model looks like now after it was crushed by the movers.

Impressive. Especially considering how fast it was built. What is it made of?
