Original Batmobile To Be Auctioned For the First Time Ever

Posted by Unknown on from the almost-as-cool-as-the-pt-cruiser dept.

Zothecula writes "In the past few years, not only has the Corvette-like Batmobile from Batman Returns been put up for auction, but a jet-powered replica of that same style of Batmobile has also been created. A drivable copy of the Dark Knight-era Tumbler has likewise been built, along with a working replica of the associated Bat Pod motorcycle. For many people, however, the only 'true' Batmobile is the original version driven by Adam West in the 1960s TV series – and it's about to be put on the auction block, for the first time ever."

    The problem is that the CEOs who did the price fixing back them are most likely well and good in new positions in other companies and couldn't care less about the long term effect of their decisions back them. The fines should be applied at least in part to the CEOs responsible to adequately deter this kind of behavior.

      Fred Pedo -- The Samsung executives were arrested (on other charges), convicted, pardoned, and reinstated at Samsung. Arresting and convicting them doesn't do any good because South Korea is a subsidiary of Samsung.
