    This was a no brainer and props to anyone who did this before me (if it has been done).

    Took the Vehicon figure and added fins to it and yellow headlights. The back section was retooled with a jet engine and he was given a TDKR head. Made him a grapple gun and gave him an extra DC Classics Batarang and we got Batman.

    Hardest part of this figure was creating a bat symbol for his chest. (freehand drawing with paint is rough lol)

    OMG it's a BATformer! This should have been released with the TF/JLA crossover.

    Probably because they are so damn hard to find.

    Looks great though. The cape works really well

    You really should get the Jet Vehicon and remove the wings and do a Batman Beyond batmobile transformer.

    I can't help but think that the angle of the thruster in vehicle mode would result in the front end popping up EVERY TIME it was engaged. Which might not be a bad thing. If I was a crook, nothing would strike terror into my heart more than a hero who pursues me in his wheelie-mobile.

    Looks sweet. I plan to make one with the FE version. What is the exact head you used?

    EDIT: nevermind. Found it and bought it. Thanks for the inspiration!
