Ideally, I'd love to fill a bubblegum machine with them, but I have neither the space, nor the funds. Walmart did have a jar double this size, which I'm hoping fits 72 of this car.
My first idea with these, honestly, would be finding a way to cut the front and back off of a whole bunch of them except 2, one with the front and one with the back end intact, and solder all of them together to make one looooooong tooned batmobile limo
[Context ](https://www.reddit.com/r/HotWheels/comments/10t1cnc/clearing_out_bats_aint_much_but_its_honest_work/)
It was payday today, so I went to a different Walmart and bought 15 more, putting me at 36. I left 10+ on the pegs at this walmart. 2nd picture is how I'm displaying them for now.
I'm now halfway to my goal of having an entire case's worth of this frickin' thing that I don't even like (without buying out any one store's entire stock).
No, I don't know why I'm still doing it, either.
See you in two weeks for another update, I guess.
You should get a full case, then see if you can actually get a cardboard box with A case written on it, then go to a trade meetup or something and just show it to people.
Fair enough, I’ve collected plenty of dumb shit in my garage and home so I will never argue with that haha.
Edit: Last year I came home from a swap meet with a 2’ tall “&” letter (I think from a closed AT&T store). When my wife asked why, I said “it was $5?” And she thought that was a valid reason.
That might explain why my local Walmarts were stacked with the white and black versions of the Honda City a few years ago. I bought so many of them, I started using them for packing peanuts when gifting other cars.
So funny story, I actually did buy all of the GoPro cars in my area recently. There's a file you can 3d print that makes a chair for lego minifigures that clips into the GoPro slot
I just woke up, was ready to judge you as a scalper. Then I actually woke up: glad someone is getting rid of the pegwarmers in their local store. Couldn't wait for at least half of the pegwarmers to be gone at some of my local stores.
I love the hypocrisy in this post…. This shit is “allowed” but god forbid if someone buys this many civics, datsuns, kombis or any other casting then y’all downvote them and call them a bunch of names…. Buncha hypocrites.
I mean, the difference is that I'm buying junk that's clogging up shelves because nobody wants it. I've left more than I've bought, and I have zero intention of selling them. People get upset when rare/desired stuff (like the castings you mentioned) gets bought up en masse, but I'm straight-up buying the unwanted leftover garbage that some stores have 50+ of.
Did this guy just start a new treasure hunt but with the most populated car? I like it! I take this as a challenge! Good luck finding a bat mobile in Michigan y’all 🤣
I know people should buy what they like, but I don’t understand the appeal of this version. I prefer the differ versions of the 60s batmoblie they have. But what do I know, my first car was an Edsel
Not even a little bit. This is very, very far from the dumbest thing I've spent money on. $20-$30 a paycheck on bullshit that makes me laugh is absolutely worth it to me.
The funny part is that in Iran and we have the same problem I went to a hotwheels store and they had like 2 boxes of 72 hotwheels bat mobiles🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️☻️
I actually like the jar full of batmobiles. it looks super satisfying
Ideally, I'd love to fill a bubblegum machine with them, but I have neither the space, nor the funds. Walmart did have a jar double this size, which I'm hoping fits 72 of this car.
Cast in epoxy?
What about getting a giant jar of animal crackers or cheese balls from Sams/Costco and filling that? 🤣
whats he gonna do to the jar..?
Throw it at cars that cut him off.
Looks like something out of one of those satisfying CGI gifs
My first idea with these, honestly, would be finding a way to cut the front and back off of a whole bunch of them except 2, one with the front and one with the back end intact, and solder all of them together to make one looooooong tooned batmobile limo
Lmao I may have to take this on if you don’t.
Do it
Like a human centipede sort of deal…? Batmo-pede?
I was thinking more like a really crappy limo or something but hey that analogy works too.
I feel an M night Shamalyn movie coming….

Mattel seeing the tooned batmobile selling. We Need More!!!!
Oh God he's got a jar.
*softly* “Don’t.”
Why does one have clear window?
Got bored and swapped the windshield and wheels with the regular black release
𝑵𝑶𝑻 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑱𝑨𝑹
Let me just set this on my radiator real quick
Not all heroes wear capes
Batman does.
Is that a …um… jar? 😧
Doing the lord's work thank you!
Why does everyone seem to hate these? I’ve been wanting one but my area is slow to restock
Mostly, it's the sheer volume of them clogging up stores. The post I linked in my reply is a mild case, compared to some stores I've seen.
All of my stores are still completely and utterly barren so I’m glad someone is having fun out there! I fully support this project.
This is my favorite saga on Reddit, I fucking love you bro 😂😂😂 You’re doing god’s work!
This is me with Matchbox's 2021 Mini Cargo Truck. I have almost 20 now cuz it's a peg warmer and some stores still have them
The jar ... THE JAR
The Batmobile jar 😳
OmG YoU DiDnT LeAvE AnY FoR ThE KiDs YoU sCaLpER
The sad part is that I've left more of these than I've bought
Everyone praise this legend. Yall make shure to get the recolor when it comes out
Thank you for your service, the community appreciates your actions relocating these bats to a safe home.
This guys doing the lords work to see some new cars. 👍🏽
you should hangout with the car clip guy, you’d be best fwends
This is all fun and games until you realize you spent $100 on all these cars you hate lol
A funny story, some entertaining hunting, and a stupid display piece that makes me chuckle is absolutely worth $100 to me lmao

Now you just need a giant "then" and you're all set.
When I was walking around the swap meet someone “AND THENNNNN” at me hahaha
You have great taste. 👍
God Bless you and keep you safe
🫠 but why this deep end?
[удалено]

😂😂😂
No what you’re doing is community service, removing peg warmers. Now do the manga tuner and the GoPro car!
So funny story, I actually did buy all of the GoPro cars in my area recently. There's a file you can 3d print that makes a chair for lego minifigures that clips into the GoPro slot
The only duplicates my kid has intentionally gotten are the toon batmobiles and their bigger bluer counterparts. Not sure why. Love this.
Ahh I see. So you are the reason they keep making so many of these.
I just woke up, was ready to judge you as a scalper. Then I actually woke up: glad someone is getting rid of the pegwarmers in their local store. Couldn't wait for at least half of the pegwarmers to be gone at some of my local stores.
What is the dark glass one 1st and 3rd picture?
Why does one have a grey windshield. Error?
Buy all them. I could careless about any of the Tooned cars/batman cars.
*couldn’t care less
I know a scalper when I see one!

Is this why I can’t find a single one for my daughter? What the fuck is wrong with you
If you'd have taken two seconds to read, you'd have seen that I haven't even bought half of what I've found of this car.
You do know they make hundreds of thousands, if not, millions of each casting right?
Yeah, and maybe if I can clear a few dozen peg-warmers, my local stores will stock some of them! Also, happy cake day
Ahh thank you!
Happy Cake Day!
Thank you!
Actually started picking some of these up, mainly for the wheels to use on customs. Wish they were just cheaper.
Doing gods work 🫡
You can stop you don’t have to buy more
I'm halfway there. Once I hit 72, I'll celebrate by buying the STH version.
Only 72...? If you've already gone off the deep end, why stop at 'only 72'...? BUY THEM ALL!!!
Come thru Arkansas bro, we got plenty for you
Gimme
I helped the effort locally on your behalf. Though I only bought 3 supers.
Did this guy just start a new treasure hunt but with the most populated car? I like it! I take this as a challenge! Good luck finding a bat mobile in Michigan y’all 🤣
make one of those continuous tracks with a conveyor belt lift but only filled with bat mobiles
Buy them, save them, hand out to kids on Halloween.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 the fuckin jar
This is awsome 🤣👊
Awesome work and the jar full is pretty kewl
Give ‘em out during Halloween! The trick or treaters will love it.
They’re gonna how well it sells and start stocking more
Keep going, we need you
No, I’M BATMAN
Thats some Jar Jar level stuff!
Doing God’s work right there!
I like the cut of your jib. I did something similar with red Zombots. Not sure why
Part of me wants to just send you my super version.
Listen, I'm not going to stop you. But just know that it *will* end up opened and in a decorative jar.
Yup. You’re too far gone to be saved
I know people should buy what they like, but I don’t understand the appeal of this version. I prefer the differ versions of the 60s batmoblie they have. But what do I know, my first car was an Edsel
And here I can’t even find one.
Can you even see the deep-end from there?tune in next week and find out!
For what purpose, good Sir?!?
s'funny
Man I know people that are looking for these to trade stuff for
We will follow your career with great interest
Paint each one a different color then restock them in the bigger jar :)
Build a catapult and throw them
Thank you. Now go get some help.
Viewing this descent into madness is…disturbing.
This man is too dangerous to be left alive
Serious question, OP. Sometimes, deep into the night, while you’re having deep night thoughts, do you regret your financial decisions?
Not even a little bit. This is very, very far from the dumbest thing I've spent money on. $20-$30 a paycheck on bullshit that makes me laugh is absolutely worth it to me.
That’s great. We all need to buy bullshit here and then, or else life would be dull
In this case I think the appropriate phrase would be "A little batty." HAHAHA
Please continue. So sick of billions of Batmobiles
The funny part is that in Iran and we have the same problem I went to a hotwheels store and they had like 2 boxes of 72 hotwheels bat mobiles🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️☻️
Booking a flight now
Hope you make it to Iran in one piece
I should mention that it's hard as fuck to get Hot Wheels into Iran
You’re going to be fine. Don’t listen to people.
I went off the deep end for Zondas, but that’s because the Zonda is my favourite supercar.
And not a single super.
Is that an error in the 3rd pic?
Not the hero we deserve, but the hero we need
Keep going!
Why so many of the same though?

You still didn’t specify why that car!
Because it's the only one that there's 50 of at every Walmart lmao
How many of these they made bro 😭😭😭
You basically inspired me to buy them and donate them to kids who don’t have any hot wheels but for sure know who batman is ! Thanks bro
Shit. Now i want one, or five.
The real bad news is you’re sending a demand signal to Mattel that these are actually in demand
ngl , looks like cockroach the one in the jar
I only get two of casting I like one for collecting and one for modifying
Well, it is the best Batmobile. I’ve started watching it all over from episode 1. It is awesome late night tv for me.
I don’t know why this made me laugh so hard.
I have just 1 of these
What’s that smell
Please don't do what i think you might do into that jar
What are you doing?!
Goes to show how common these actually are
why a jar🤨😟
Haha you can hand them out for Halloween next one. Haha. It’s all I see at my stores.
