    Thank you for the review Jay. We will look forward to see reviews from folks with the gloss version to see if it fits more flush. Since with our own examples. The Gloss version does sit better than the Matte version which at the moment still baffles us as to why it is the case.

    I'm just waiting for Ace At Ramen to make something that my collection needs as time and again what I'm seeing from in-hand reviews is that the quality & ingenuity on these products are solid.
  • @OpenPLEASE
    My favorite thing about all this is you did your review found the gap and immeditley @ramentoy addressed the issue. Collectors and companies working together to improve and create great products is so refreshing. I wish the bigger companies had that same transperency and public presence. Every company needs there own Ace talking to the people . Ace the Real Peoples Champ! Great review Jay

    Thank you so much for the heads up. I was not aware that this was even a product that someone was making. I am so happy I got the matte when I did because it's all sold out now. I am terrible at upgrading anything and everything. This was very easy to do in my opinion. I had no issues with the screws. Everything came apart and went back together very easily with no issues. This was my first time taking this Batmobile apart, so I was nervous going in, but it was easy and pretty cut and dry, especially after watching their installation video.

    I'm waiting on that Ramen Racer too! The CAG set look awesome!!!
  • @THE_PATMAN_87
    Thank you for sharing this looks so much better, improving the 89 batmobile. I subscribed as well just because you're humble. I don't like when other channels tell you to subscribe like 10 times I have a family I need your money basically lol. Just saying I like that you do this for the love of doing it,the passion ❤❤❤ great review

    I don't think I've ever seen Jay mod anything. Pretty epic.
  • @Fedpool
    such a great and simple mod. thanks for suggesting it. i have had that batmobile in a box unopened for months. lots of things bugged me about it, but you nailed it. the roof and windshields are all off and gross; looked too toy like. took a little while, but the parts arrive and it is now leaps better and I am proud to display it. even if it is a one seater. :D

    Nice review and cool upgrade. My theory on why McFarland made the canopy the way he did is so you could see the figure inside the vehicle. I've seen some upgrades for turning the 1 seater into a 2 seater, but I think you would need a smaller Batman for it.
  • @BendingInTheWind
    This is a great start! I really, really want new headlights and taillights.
  • Can’t wait! Getting two sets for both versions. This and the Two Seater set I have will be lit 🔥 . Great price for sure. I think I honestly prefer the glossy one since I don’t have to worry about it scratching up like the Matte one. Especially when messing around putting figures in. And some pics of the 89 Batmobile kind of have that look .
  • @jace9763
    Bought one of each set. Can't wait!
  • Thanks for the review and tutorial! McFarlane Toys should pay RamenToy to send replacements to all customers who bought the original glossy Batmobile, which had defective color match.
  • @bubby14
    Thanks for being the first to review. Even though it's not 100% flush, it's worth the $20. The profile is better and the guns are perfect. SOLD!

    When I got a suggestion from Amazon to get this Batmobile in December, it was an immediate purchase. Then my immediate next stop was to Ramen Toys to get the GAG set. It really makes the 89 Batmobile look so much better. Happy to see that they will be shipping soon and you shared the end result. Even if there is a little canopy lift, I would rather have that than the derpy canopy it came with. I am hoping that he considers doing the 2 seater conversion. But understands if he doesn’t. I am so grateful that this is an option
  • Interested in this Yeah, that canopy looks better, and it doesn't seem out of place; even though it doesn't sit as flush as I would like. Idk. Tough call. I really don't have much time to open and modify toys. Nice video Jay! Thanks
  • @Warrior8bit
    Nice vid. Thanks. Jay, did you attend German Toy Fair? Can you confirm or deny the rumours of new MOTU reveals? Bashasaurus, Slime Pit He-Man etc.

    The mezco batman looks good with that vehicle
