Hot Wheels has announced an RC Batmobile for The Batman with LED lights, smoke, and vapor. The Batman is the newest entry in the Batman franchise from director Matt Reeves and starring Robert Pattinson, Zoe Kravitz, Colin Farrell, Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright and Andy Serkis. The film is said to be a standalone effort from the main DCEU, which will focus on the early years of Batman in Gotham City, but without being an origin movie.

One noticeable difference in The Batman is the new Batmobile, which has a more street-level design than past Batmobiles, which have typically had the batwing-like spoilers and a more rounded, sleek front in the '60s TV show and Burton/Schumacher films. Christopher Nolan employed a more "tank-like" vehicle, called "The Tumbler" for his The Dark Knight trilogy, which was a big departure from the standard look of the iconic car. Now, director Matt Reeves has changed it up again, creating a muscle car version of the Batmobile for his incarnation of the character.

Today, Mattell announced a new Hot Wheels RC 1:10 scale version of the Batmobile from The Batman, which has a number of cool features and designs for fans of the character and RCs in general. The Batmobile will feature movie-accurate graphics, smoke and flame FX (with water vapor and LED lights), as well as a working suspension. Additionally, the RC will come with a diorama plinth from the Batcave with working lights and a working Bat-signal. The Batmobile RC goes on pre-sale on Wednesday, October 20th, exclusively at Mattell Creations. Check out the announcement video and images below:
