Street-legal Batmobile up for auction, flame thrower included

Always a good idea to have proper transportation to fit the task.

Batkid has recently shown us that it’s possible to transform into a superhero, if only for a day, and the smart superfan plans ahead for the day she/he might also be given an opportunity to fight crime before lunch and dispense justice for dessert.

Fortunately, aspiring Batpeople can lock down their own Batmobile to be ready the next time Gotham’s chief of police puts out the Batsignal.

On November 30, a fully road-legal Batmobile will be auctioned off at Mercedes-Benz World UK by auto auctioneers Historics. This particularly bat-tastic lot is modeled on the iteration of the crime-fighting vehicle seen in Tim Burton’s 1989 movie “Batman,” starring Michael Keaton as the caped crusader.
