Batman Red Tin Batmobile (Cien Ge, 1970's)....

Description

Batman Red Tin Batmobile (Cien Ge, 1970's). Rolling in with vintage flair and unmistakable charm, this striking red tin Batmobile captures the bold, imaginative spirit of 1970s superhero toys. Produced by Cien Ge and made in Taiwan, this short version car features "Batmobile" proudly emblazoned on its sides and showcases an eye-catching blend of chrome, color, and lithographed detail. The vehicle retains its original box-the desirable side-photo variant-which promotes its "Battery Operated Mystery Action" along with "Blinking Warning Light and Jet Engine Noise" when activated. The Batmobile itself is in excellent condition, boasting a clean battery compartment, vivid color, and white tin hubcaps on rubber wheels. Black pinstriping accents the body, with black highlights across the fins and rocket exhaust, while the rear fin tips are finished in translucent blue. Batman and Robin ride along with tin upper bodies and painted plastic heads that show minor paint wear, and the front tin grills are beginning to tarnish slightly. The lithographed doors, dashboard, and hood remain crisp and colorful, and the silver plastic bumpers are intact. The box is solid with some light creasing and scuffing on the lid, and a few creases on the bottom but no tears. The toy has not been tested, so functionality is not guaranteed-but visually, it's a nostalgic showstopper.
