Model Kits

[TheRealSmallville]

We don't have a thread for model kits, so I thought I'd make one. This thread is for discussion of the model kits that build action figures or their vehicles, although I suppose if you want to talk about traditional AMT (or similar) kits you can do that, too!

I recently got the new BvS/JL Batmobile kit from Play club in the mail, it's a 1/12 scale vehicle with lights. Gigantic box. I haven't built it yet, so these aren't my pics:

It looks like it's a good size for Mezco, probably Mafex. You can build it to be the BvS version or you can add on the parts for the JL one. Has anyone picked this up yet? If so, how was the build?

The Modoking kits have been really nice, too. Currently I've built the Tumbler, the Batpod, The Dark Knight Batman/Batsignal set, and the Batfleck from the Flash film. I've picked up the Batcycle from the Flash, but I haven't built it yet.

Here's a look at the Tumbler from our YT channel (along with a custom Jokermobile made by Mrs. Smallville)

I don't have a video on the Dark Knight stuff, but I did a timelapse for the Batfleck from the Flash movie. He's...ok. Honestly, it's the only kit I haven't been super impressed with so far:

Anyway, sorry for spamming videos to our channel but I figured it was the best way to show these things.

Have any of you been picking these kits up? What do you think?

I had the crowdfunded Batmobile from McFarlane, but as soon as I got a preorder in on this Play Club version I sold the McFarlane one I had. This one is just about the same size, but it's a two-seater and has more options.
