Ferrari 458 Spider (1st Red Ferrari, 1st 5-pack)

Ferrari... should be Red right ? :)

The next Hot Wheels is a red Ferrari 458 Spider.  I bought it as a part of 2014 Ferrari 5-pack.  It's very nice to see this Italian car model.

Ferrari 458 Spider made the debut as 2012 HW New Models.  The 2014 version is a red car, with tampos: Headlights, Ferrari logo on hood, white stripes on hood & side. 

When we talk about the real car, Ferrari 458 Spider is the world’s first midrear- engined car to sport a retractable hard top. In fact, the car’s entire concept of combining comfort, lightweight construction, functionality and performance, was built around that feature.  The 458 Spider was premiered at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. This convertible variant of the 458 Italia features an aluminium retractable hardtop which, according to Ferrari, weighs 25 kilograms (55 lb) less than a soft roof such as the one found on the Ferrari F430 Spider, and can be opened in 14 seconds.

Batpod

And... another Batman Hot Wheels of mine is Batpod.  I bought it the same time with The Tumbler and The Bat.  They're complete my Dark Knight Trilogy Batman Hot Wheels. :)
Mine is a part of 2014 HW City - Batman 75th Anniversary.

The Bat-Pod is a model from the Dark Knight movie. The model came with a Joker tamped truck.  It made the Hot Wheels debut at 2008.  It came with 2 version, with & without riding Batman.

The Batcycle is the fictional personal motorcycle of comic book superhero Batman. In the comic book universe, Batman's personal Batcycle is a modified street-bike with a 786 cc liquid-cooled V-4 engine. It contains a computer-controlled carburetor and bulletproof wind-guard.

The Batcycle from Batman (1966).

The Batcycle is known as the Batpod for The Dark Knight (2008) and "The Dark Knight Rises" (2012).  The bike has 20" front and rear tires and is powered by a high-performance, water-cooled, single-cylinder engine - geared toward the lower end for faster acceleration and with no exhaust pipes.  The Batpod is steered by the shoulders instead of hands, and the rider's arms are protected by shields.

The Batpod is intended as a kind of "escape pod" integrated into the Tumbler, it also served an auxiliary vehicle. Armed with dual front-mounted cannons, machine guns and grappling hooks, the Batpod affords Batman greater mobility at the cost of some protection. 

The Bat

My next Hot Wheels is The Bat.  I bought it at a Hot Wheels Fair too, like The Tumbler.  It's a part of 2012 HW Premiere, which was the debut (an only) year of The Bat at Hot Wheels.  The Bat is a Hot Wheels casting based on Batman's vehicle from the 2012 movie "The Dark Knight Rises".

  

"Remember where you parked?" - Lucius Fox.  The Bat is the name given to the aircraft operated by Batman in The Dark Knight Rises.  

It's really an Unordinary Flying Object (UFO).  :D

 

The Tumbler - Camouflage Version

After the first Batmobile, I started collecting Batman Vehicle.  Another Batman Hot Wheels that I found was The Tumbler - Camouflage Version.  I bought it at a Hot Wheels Fair.  It's a little more expensive than the standard price, but it's not easy to find at the store.  It's a part of 2014 HW City - Batman 75th Anniversary.

Batmobile (Tumbler) make the Hot Wheels debut at 2005 Hot Wheels.  It's a black car with no tampos.  The Tumbler Hot Wheels casting based on the batmobile from the movie Batman Begins.

The Tumbler's armour is strong enough to break through concrete barriers without sustaining significant damage.
