Corgi, who is famous, at least to me, for making the die cast replicas of James Bond cars with working gadgets, is making a line of die cast Batmobiles, based on various models in the comics over the years. Included in the first series is my favorite Batmobile: the futuristic 1990s Batmobile. it was used for about five years, until it got blown up at the end of the whole Knightsend thing. My only gripe with series one is that it features two models from the 2000s, both from the Jim Lee "Hush" series. Neither car is very exciting to look at, and I wish that they had done more obscure cars, like the 1990s version.
A series two is already being made to come out this summer. Included are the Redbird, Tim Drake's vehicle of choice, and 1990s Batmobile Version 2 which is more faithful to Norm Breyfogle's original design.
