About this deal

Furthermore, the torso is decorated with a spotted waistcoat while the legs feature intricate chequer across the front. These designs correspond with the movie and the Joker's distinct makeup seems equally authentic, including tiny red lips! The grotesque creases around this villain's mouth match those on the previous figure, although they are particularly visible here. In some instances, escrow accounts may be removed from the mortgage loan. These have to be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, and a written request signed by every customer on the loan is required. For more information, please call us at (877) 330-4066. I really think the set designer either lost a bet or just set himself a particularly hard challenge to use these pieces. This is where they go during the building process. On the left you see how they initially hold some plates together. But a simple 2x3 and1x2 plate could have done the same thing. On the right you see them right before they get completely covered by other plates. Once you’re done with this step, you can’t see any of the pink from any angle. So my guess is he lost a beat and had to use them somehow. Bag 6 is the exact same, but for the right wing. What’s interesting is that while I had extra pieces after Bag 5. I had 0 extra pieces for Bag 6. Was this another accident, or did the production team think we only needed one set of extras for the two bags combined? Batwing seems extremely accurate when compared with the onscreen vehicle, matching 76139 1989 Batmobile in that respect. Furthermore, both models are constructed at exactly the same scale so they should appear superb when displayed together, particularly given their complementary aesthetic features. Box and Contents

I haven't built it yet myself, so I don't know how it actually works. What I do know is that however you claim it's designed to work...isn't working. No, seriously. You can have a complex and elegant solution that works perfectly every time, except that if that solution isn't precisely implemented the same way by everyone, whatever they do instead _isn't_ going to work the way you intended. Design: 10/10 - Design-wise this set is perfect. It's very sturdy and can even be swooshed around the room. Determined how to safely hang this thing on a wall, so it won't just pull loose, specifically regarding the dimensions of the fastener (maximum diameter that will fit inside the keyhole slot, minimum size required to keep it from popping out unexpectedly). Curved slopes are placed along the outermost edges of each wing, nestling almost perfectly against wedge plates. Despite their apparent simplicity, these curved slopes are connected using an unusual combination of clips, bars and two rubber bands to ensure that the elegant shaping remains intact. I was surprised to encounter two printed 2x2 round tiles which display Batman's famous insignia inside!

Overall

Seriously, you come up with your elaborate oponions on every single set no matter what theme, and I have a life besides my job, chatting with you and trying to argue my case is not a part of either. Kept this information _secret_ from your customers because you don't want to be sued if they get it wrong. Getting the Batwing up on it's stand you can see how the underside becomes so visible. You could display it on a lower shelf or a coffee table. But otherwise you'll be looking at the bottom of the ship more than the top. I couldn't mount it on my wall for various reason, and I'm sure many other people will be in that boat. That being said, all three reasons you mentioned are correct if you use the wrong hardware to hang it up, and I'm sorry, but an adult should think long and hard for about a second before he or she finds out how to solve that little riddle, when in doubt, go to the hardware store with the hanger bit, and try out which screw (correct for your wall) has the correct shaft diameter, and the diameter of the head. Then, even with that key hole, you won't be able to take it off the wall. Period. There is no way, except for brute force, the hanger is so deep off the lowest point, and the prongs are long enough to prevent it form tilting so that the correct size screw can slide out.

Hopefully you figure out your mistake from a bunch of customer service calls where people are just trying to figure out what type/size of fastener they should use, and not because it fell on some kid's head. Don't worry about me, as Consumer Affairs sent me a free hanger element so I get an idea of the true dimensions of the keyhole slot (since _NOBODY_ has posted this info online), so I won't even open the seals on the box until I've found something that will do the job safely. I've built actual boats out of wood, and actor-proof sets and props. Who you need to worry about is 560heliport, who, further up this thread, advised people that a nail into drywall (just drywall, not a stud behind the drywall) is sufficient. Hidden beneath the seat is a special element that allows the model to hang on a screw fixing in the wall. Replacing the seat hides an unsightly screwhead and will leave the set looking suitably epic. 5.

Hazard insurance includes Fire and Extended Coverage, and where required, Flood Insurance. To protect our mutual interest in the mortgaged property, we will require evidence of proper insurance. Absent this evidence, we are required to force place coverage (not including your equity) on your behalf and charge your mortgage account. You will be given prior notice before coverage is placed. Periodically, please consult your insurance agent to ensure that your policy adequately meets your needs. The fact that noone can tell you the right dimensions of the screw/nail is very simple, ONLY YOU know what walls you have in your house, there will never be any info released about the dimensions of the hanger, because LEGO can't take the responsibility for people's poor choices, and we don't want consumers to call and say that we told them to use a drywall screw sunk in half an inch in a concrete wall... Ikea or home depo doesn't tell you either how to hang up their stuff.

Construction

Verdict: 9/10 - This set is nearly perfect. If you're a Batman fan you'll love it. It makes for a great display piece either on your shelf or hanging on the wall. If you have the 2019 Batmobile it will look amazing next to it, but it also looks great on its own. If you have the budget and the desire, go get it! Batman has employed numerous aircraft since his introduction, including the notable Batwing that appears during Tim Burton's 1989 Batman movie. This spectacular vehicle has maintained impressive popularity and provided inspiration for many subsequent designs.

Many of them are just people who were looking for a part-time job, and are good with people (especially of the younger variety), but had never built a LEGO set in their life before getting hired”. This was thoroughly tested over and over again, the model was artifically aged, and then hung on a wooden wall that is at a highly frequented place (vibrations) in the Billund office, and it's been there for over a year now, nothing falls off. A slightly tilted one that's been converted to a lamp is hanging here for six months, we ripped it off the wall, we threw it on the floor to see what happens in the unlikley scenario when it falls off the wall. We held it by the wing tips to see if the frame is strong enough and whatnot. Every scenario we could imagine was tried out. No! No sets based on the Schumacher movies. Next should be the Lobser-copter from The Dark Knight Rises! Also, a retail release of the large Batpod.When we’re done attaching everything in unique ways, the finished product is stunning. It’s a smooth, nearly perfect curve. Since the Batwing is a display model the set designers made the bottom look as polished as possible with all those anti-studs. And if you display this on it’s stand you will see the bottom as we’ll discuss later. is the cheapest I've seen it and I don't think it will go lower, so if you see it at this price it's probably a good buy. Looking to the future I'm not enough of a Batman fan to want to collect LEGO Batman sets, let alone these large-scale vehicles, but I really enjoy that such LEGO models exist. It's love letter after love letter to fans, and they only seem to get better. I like that the wall-hanging paradigm from LEGO Art is making its way to other display products wherever suitable, too. It's a testament to LEGO engineering that these massive, complex models can be mounted on a wall and retain structural integrity, all while looking pretty darn smart.

Joker was in the 2019 Batmobile set in a much more classic outfit. In the Batwing he's wearing his mime costume that he uses to get up close to Vinnie Ricorso. He uses a quill to murder him which is here represented by a feather plume. It uses one of the hanger pieces from the new mosaic line. I've not heard the ideal size for the screw, but the keyhole slot is deep enough that one should be sufficient as long as you sink the screw into a framing stud. It's worth noting that if you display it in this manner, the weight of this thing will probably be enough to cause the screw threads to "bite" into the plastic a bit over time. If you can find such a thing, I'd probably suggest a pan-head or button-head wood screw with a 1/4" shoulder that's as large a diameter as the keyhole slot will accommodate. Without having a part to actually measure, I think your best bet would be the longest 10 wood screw you can find. According to a size chart I found online, the longest they make that size in is 2-1/4". I'd have preferred at least a 2-1/2", but that doesn't appear to be an option. You'll want to pilot drill the hole so you don't risk splitting the stud. For softwood, 7/64" is suggested. If you can't get that size, I'd advise going smaller (3/32") so you don't risk having the threads pull out. If you're installing the screw by hand (and you're not Arnold), either rub the threaded portion of the screw on a bar of soap, or apply a drop or two of liquid soap (be careful not to drip!) to the end right before you begin driving the screw into the piloted hole. This will lubricate it temporarily, making it easier to turn in...for a little while at least. Try to do it in one attempt, or remove the screw and try again (with more soap) later if you need to. It's not unheard of to snap a screw off if you try to drive it in more after letting it sit too long. Something I like to consider when investing in a set is the popularity of its theme and is it one that LEGO is going to continue producing sets for? I say this because often the early sets of successful themes do extremely well as investment items. Take Market Street and Café Corner in the Modular Building Series as an example, as the popularity of the theme has soared over recent years so has price of those sets

About DC

Batmobile was among my favourite sets produced during 2019 and substantial expectations therefore surround 76161 1989 Batwing. I think this rendition of the celebrated Batwing satisfies those high expectations, albeit without matching the remarkable precedent established by the previous model. Subtle details cover the exterior and the shaping is lovely, particularly around the wings which are deceptively elaborate in their construction. Bag 12 completes our Batwing model! Fins, windscreen, and weapons finish off the building process for the main model. BILLUND, September 19, 2020: It may not soar to Gotham city, but the LEGO Group’s latest release with Warner Bros. Consumer Products and DC, the LEGO® DC BATMAN™ 1989 Batwing, is sure to transport fans to their most memorable DC Super Hero moments this Batman Day. Fans of Batman and avid builders are in for some serious fun as they embark on their journey to construct the ultimate Super Hero vehicle in the LEGO® DC BATMAN™ collection.
