Inklusive funktionsfähigem Flammenwerfer: Mecum Auctions, Inc. in Walworth, Wisconsin versteigert eine Batmobile Replik aus dem 1989er Film von Tim Burton
SONDERKONDITIONEN: Satzpreis!
A jaw-dropping replica of the iconic Batmobile from Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman is going under the hammer — but it’ll cost you a hefty £200,000.
Measuring nearly 20 feet long, the supercar was built for the Batman stunt show and comes officially licensed by Warner Bros.
The beast of a machine was constructed by Hollywood Productions and rides on a lengthened Chevrolet Impala chassis.
Signed by original Batmobile builders Chris Dixon and Steve Mank of Wounded Knee Motors in Ohio, it’s the real deal, complete with a Certificate of Ownership from Six Flags.
The glossy black fiberglass body closely mirrors the cinematic original and conceals a Chevrolet 350 CI small-block V8 engine paired with automatic transmission.
Inside, the Batmobile boasts a cockpit-style cabin with a sliding canopy, custom leather seats, and a dazzling array of buttons, switches, and levers.
The interior is decked out with a custom Batman logo on the steering wheel and a Wounded Knee Motors badge just behind the driver’s seat.
Adding to its flair, the vehicle features a British Harrier jet intake and a rear flame thrower for an afterburner-like effect.
Though technically driveable, parking this 20-foot hero-mobile might require Batcave-level planning.
The one-of-a-kind machine — dubbed Serial No. 1 — will be auctioned by American auction company Mecum Auctions on Saturday, May 17.

You appreciate it at different levels, at different ages.“It works well for kids, and once you become an adult, you start to identify with Homer and Marge more than you would say, Bart.”Explaining why he collects The Simpsons memorabilia, Michael said: “There was just so much merchandise to collect. You can get a variety of items, essentially.“So if I was collecting Pez dispensers, they kind of all look the same.“Whereas, if you’re collecting something as broad as the Simpsons, you’ve got Pez dispensers, but also stuffed toys, mugs, glasses, figurines, DVDs, videos, cassettes, records, Lego, collected coins, ceramic figures.”Michael’s loved ones ar *** Local Caption *** 41111414

Die komplette Geschichte der RAF: Der pensionierte Lehrer Cliff White hat eine Sammlung von über 270 britischen Modellflugzeugen -- Cliff White with some of his 270 model planes that he has been building since the 1950's, Worthing, East Sussex. See National story NNplanes - A retired teacher who has spent more than 60 years building model planes has amassed a fleet large enough to rival the Royal Air Force itself - and now wants to give it away. Cliff White has made nearly 300 models since he started in 1956 while completing national service at Hendon Aerodrome in London, where he worked as a carpenter on the RAF’s wooden aircraft. His collection spans the RAF’s entire history, starting with the classic First World War Sopwith Camel up until today’s cutting-edge Eurofighter Typhoon fast-jet. But sixty three years and hundreds of models later, the 85-year-old from Lincolnshire is now looking to rehouse the display - which takes up two walls in his specially-converted garage.

FEATURE - Eine seltene Harry Potter Erstausgabe wird auf einer Auktion vermutlich einen Preis von über 20'000 Pfund erzielen
The Harry Potter first edition. A Harry Potter first edition book - bought at a table top sale for just £1 - is set to bring its owner a windfall that even author JK Rowling would have struggled to imagine. Such is the global appeal of the Harry Potter books, the classic first edition hard copy, which had a print run of just 500, is so highly sought after by wealthy fans and collectors worldwide one sold for £28,000 in May and another, signed by JK Rowling, made £68,000 at auction. Now a 1997 first edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone has been unearthed in Staffordshire by Hansons Auctioneers. Bought 20 years ago for pennies, it enters Hansons’ Library Auction on July 31 – Harry Potter and JK Rowling’s birthdays – with an estimate of £20,000-£30,000. The book was first published by Bloomsbury on June 30, 1997 after being rejected by several publishers. Those first editions can be identified by two typographical errors. The back page misspells philosopher’s – it reads philospher’s - and on P53 a list of equipment mentions ‘1 wand’ twice. Author JK Rowling’s name also appears as Joanne Rowling. / action press *** Local Caption *** 29980157
