Today I supported my local economy by exchanging two Earth pounds for a Hot Wheels Adam West style Batmobile.

What is an Arkham Asylum Batmobile, and why does it come in either dark red or dark green? That's what I want to know.

No idea. I have the green and brown ones. Not seen the red one. Gotta catch them all. Five to find, I think.

I'd already got the normal Adam West Batmobile, but in Sainsbury's this morning I got the super-deformed short version of it. And I have the Dark Knight Trilogy Batmobile and 'Bat' (the flying thing from the film nobody likes but me) on the way. Martin |

Trouble is, having bought K.I.T.T. in Super Pursuit Mode I now need a normal K.I.T.T. to go with it, and that will not be so cheap.

I've been scrolling through the Hot Wheels 'HW Screen Time' range of supposedly iconic vehicles. Along with K.I.T.T., the X-Men Blackbird, the Back to the Future Time Machine and the Scooby-Doo van, I noted the USS Enterprise 1701. I wondered what other Star Trek 'iconic' vehicles were in the range.
Just one.
'USS Vengeance'
I had to ask the Zoom call what this was as I'd never heard of it.

Oh, is it the reboot movie one? That's bad.

I've decided there are too many Hot Wheels Batman vehicles, and they come in too many random colours, so I am rationalising what I obtain and keep within well-defined limits:
Adam West Batmobile
Adam West Batmobile (super-deformed)
Dark Knight Trilogy Batmobile/'Tumbler' (black only)
Dark Knight Trilogy Bat-Pod
Dark Knight Trilogy 'Bat'
Plus the X-Men jet, and two versions of K.I.T.T. (normal and Super Pursuit Mode).
That will do.

Non-Super Pursuit Mode K.I.T.T. finally in my hands. It did not come cheap, but while the show itself has dated, the car itself has not, and it remains in my eyes the coolest looking car of all time.

I was overtaken by a KITT on the way home from work once. Proper car, left hand drive with the red light running on the front. Really freaked me out when I saw it in the wing mirror.

Has Martin discovered the dark world of secondary market Hot Wheels??!! If you mean eBay, then yes. And dark is the word for my Hot Wheels collection. Three black batmobiles (two Adam West, one Batman Begins), one bat-cycle (Bat-Pod from The Dark Knight), two black flying 'Bats' (from The Dark Knight Rises) with different cockpit covers, two black KITTs and a black X-Men Blackbird!
