That is pretty cool. I like the custom work you did on the Batman and Robin Robin figure. The diaroma is amazing.

Is this just something you dreamed up, or is it form something. It looks vaguely familiar.

Thanks so much bro!

Well the Dude who is hanging I tried to make him look like one of the Mutant punks from DKR.

Then Gotham Sign is out of NML .

The D in the Back , that has been crossed out is also from NML. It was the gang sigh for the Diablos.

I also used the gang turffs from NML to photoshop the Gotham map.

Other than that just all out of my head.

I never thought Robin was that cool.

So I wanted to make somthing to look like the end of the wold kinda like Road Warrior. Then make Robin look like a total Bad Azz.
His Bike I made because I had it laying in my ben og parts and thought it be cool to make a relly awesome trike for Robin and it all started from there.
My idea was to make somthing that would support Robin 100% tools , weapons , extra gas , communication etc.

Thanks again!

John

That's really awesome actually. With the exception of Carrie Kelly I've never really liked robin, but I like the Cyberpunk look, looks like something out of Judge Dredd.
Just out of interest, is that a Bacardi bat on the front of the bike?

Thanks so very much.

The Bat Shield is some fodder I had. I belive it came with a Batman Legend Character. But please dont hold me to that.

Pretty imaginative, Panzer. Looks like you took some recognizable elements and made it your own. It definitely has a grim, wasteland kinda feel.

Yep. Crusader Robin to be precise. Pretty cool figure, I must say.

Just reminded me a lot of this:


and from my extensive supermarket knowledge from 4 years of working in one, I thought it might have been one of the keyrings that were being given away promotionally a couple of years ago.


It's a shame Batman isn't removable from the Begins Batcycle, that would have also made a great looking bike for this diorama

That's really cool! It reminded me immediately of Phil's design for Robin way back when I frequented these boards. Is Phil still around?

I just got a batman forever redbird in a selection of figures from ebay, and I think I'm gonna try a similar thing with a Batman figure, sort of a compliment to this, or a tribute. I've never customized a vehicle before though. I'll see how it goes. I have like four other projects on the go though, so it'd be after that
