10 iconic Batmobile vehicles that resemble "The Tumbler" from Christopher Nolan's "Dark Knight" Batman movies will be available for sale by Wayne Enterprises, and Warner Bros. Studios is sanctioning their production in honor of the 85th Anniversary. The vehicle sale price is approximately $2,990,000 USD.

The Tumbler vehicle being sold has a 6-liter LS3 engine and weighs 5,511 pounds, over 2 tons. It has a steel tube space frame, fitted with kevlar, carbon fiber, sheet metal, and fiberglass.

The batmobile will have a five-point racing harness, complete with imitation gun turrets and a "simulated jet turbine powerplant."

The Timeline to Receive The Batman Tumbler

The website shows a timeline that consists of "allocation" (i.e. reservation), a "review offering" of the final specs with pricing, payment details and an offer to reserve the build spot, with an estimated delivery of 15 months from the date of deposit. Then finally comes the Tumbler arrival (i.e. the delivery).

Complete details about this movie-inspired vehicle are found on the company website here.

Another company, Hot Toys, is releasing a special figure for Batman enthusiasts.
