WetWired Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Does it come in black? by Brent Waller, on FlickrSo with the success of the recent Minecraft LEGO set on I thought I'd submit my custom lego batmobile I built back in 2008 when I came out of my dark ages.I built custom instructions for the set using MLCAD (a LEGO CAD program) as well as making a camo version painted using vinyl dye.Please check out my submission for it on cuusoo's website here and if you think it's worthy and would like to see it possibly come an official set, please vote for it.To be clear licensed sets are permitted under their terms and conditions, if the set successfully reaches 10 000 votes LEGO will take care of licensing deals.The link also contains images of the creation as well as links to the instructions and more info.VOTE HERE Also if you REALLY like it please twitter, Google+, Facebook, SMS, Phone, Telegraph, Smoke Signal it around the internets.

deskp Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 They looks nice, but I would prefer a set you can place minifigures in. Quote
WetWired Posted February 7, 2012 Author Posted February 7, 2012 They looks nice, but I would prefer a set you can place minifigures in. You can fit a batman minifigure perfectly inside it, complete with seat, steering wheel and dials. Pictures of this are on the cuusoo and flickr\mocpages links Quote
JackJonespaw Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Very nice! My vote has been added! Quote
Hewman Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Although they're very good designs. I'm sure that Lego are more than aware of the popularity of the tumbler, and I wouldn't be surprised at all if one is already being designed for the next wave of Batman sets. The number of votes for this is unlikely to sway Lego one way or the other, also how many people are actualy saying they'd like the military patterned one? This one is unlikely to be released as a regular set, so maybe that one on its own would have made a better Cuusoo project. Quote
Brickmamba Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Very nice one of my favorite batman vehicles that i never had a chance to get, hopefully Lego will rerelease this in line with the new DC sets Quote
Batbrick Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Ah, Wetwired I was trying to remember your username the other day. I want to thankyou for providing instructions to your brilliant design, your Tumbler is sitting proudly in my custom Batcave at the moment, so I'll gladly support this vote! Batbrick Away! Quote

Batbrick Away! thanks batbrick, I imagine some improvements could be made with LEGOs help, the front wheels aren't as strong as they should be and there is likely other improvements that could be made. One suggestion from CUUSOO website was the addition of a joker and circus truck and SWAT van companion vehicle which would be cool. Perhaps the camo one could be a seperate set with a bruce wayne, lucious fox and a small computer console Quote

WetWired Posted February 10, 2012 Author Posted February 10, 2012 Wetwired, if you put the camo one up separately, I'll definitely vote for it, especially with Lucius fig! I probably should have done that at first but it's too late now and I don't really want to splinter the votes. I did however add some descriptions for additional figs and vehicles\playsets Suggested additional items:Black version: Vehicles: Joker's Circus Truck, SWAT Van Minifigures: Batman, Joker, 2x Henchmen, SWAT Gordon and SWAT officer. Camo Version: Wayne Tech playset with computer consoles and gear cabinets Minifigures: Bruce Wayne, Lucius Fox, Balaclava Spelunking Bruce Wayne Quote
WetWired Posted February 11, 2012 Author Posted February 11, 2012 I was bored today and did up a little youtube video promo for these MOCs to try and snag some more votes on cuusoo... Quote
Brickmamba Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Great work on the video, you should go into marketing for a career Quote
WetWired Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 Great work on the video, you should go into marketing for a career Ha. I'd probably make more money than my current career, I don't think I'd enjoy it as much though unless I was promoting Lego or batman :p Quote
WetWired Posted February 18, 2012 Author Posted February 18, 2012 300 votes! Thanks to all those who've voted so far, I don't like my chances of getting to 10000 though. Quote
Hewman Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 I finally got around to submitting my vote and saw you have well and truly passed 500 and have an encouraging message from Lego. Well done and good luck! Hopefully bumping the topic also gives you a few more votes. Quote
lightningtiger Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 My vote made it 570. Still a way off 10000.....we can only hope. Such a cool design I had to vote for it. Bat-brick On everyone ! Quote
Im a brickmaster. Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Wow! I love the look of your tumbler, a very original design style. I like the desert camo one Good job! Quote
WetWired Posted July 16, 2012 Author Posted July 16, 2012 Thanks to everyone who has voted so far, it reached 2500 votes on the weekend, a long way to go though. Quote
