honestly i do find rm500 above for any batmobile 1:18 scale is way unreasonable (no worry i'm aware the stuff ain't yours), fyi any 1:18 scales batmobile retails at usd30 (less than rm100) and to this date even the 1st movie batman begins version on ebay go usd40 max, buy it now (probably around this time they'll go bit higher due to dark knight movie hype, but sooner will steadily decline). This is due to 1:18 is mass produced unlike other certain limited release like the batmobile Oil Cans and that 1st run 2 batmobile boxset. Put both 'true collectors willing to spend' and 'you don't know how expensive US shipping bla bla' factors, rm300+ range (from retail rm100) is still alright but not rm500. People who put rm500 price tag however, it's either they're desperate scalpers like how some ppl would try to sell very expensive jada 1:18 camaro just because it's bumblebee.. or also genuine seller that himself paid for scalped price unaware how cheap the item could be purchased so i can't really judge a seller by their price.

in our chia's case, he sold 1:18 batmobiles like 60's one for rm300+, though it might sound high for newly released item put in his situation i totally understand why he has to do so, because we all aware summit didn't really get the items straight from distribution (like jada) but just like how we get our stuff, given oversea shipping (and i assume some must have sangkut at kastam as well), i believe him when he say he ain't really making much out of it. I would say uncle chia has to find better 'lubang' for him to sell at closer to retail price yet make better profit, just like how different toy stores out there have different source, with tax shipping and all they may not sell their stuff exact retail as in US, but clearly they ain't selling at triple the price.

as for 1:18 tumbler, the 1st movie tumbler indeed reach here last time for below rm200 (i got mine for misb rm160 from other collector), and some stores tried to mark up rm300+ for quite some time (still alright i guess), so for those who tried to sell rm550 claiming he got it 1st hand for that price i highly doubt on that. And this year's Dark Knight tumbler, i've been told YES hotwheels 1:18 tumbler dark knight version confirmed to be brought locally to certain specialty stores, price not confirmed yet but as long as it's straight from mattel price shouldn't skyrocket.. this one i think summit made mistake by trying to bring on his own, should have nego with mattel as well.

in fact, carded 1st edition 2004 batmobile also released in zamac finish instead of purple! exclusive to certain stores (US TRU if i'm not mistaken), one of holy grail for batmobile collectors hehe i still yet to have one



*not to be confused with silver batmobile like you guys saw loose as those are from 2 pack*
*those ebay claim that there's only 1,000 pcs of carded zamac that's totally false, pure b.s
