The Dark Knight's Bat and Tumbler Vehicles Come to Life with LEGOs

If you've finished building your Curiosity rover and are wondering, now what? Perhaps it's time to move onto something a bit more... mobile?

Take these awesome recreations of the Dark Knight's Tumbler and Bat vehicles built by Mahj, complete with lights, motors, and moving parts; and yes, they do come in black.

Construction-wise, the pieces shouldn't be too hard to find. The real challenge is getting the working LEGO motor to work. Check out both vehicles in action below. But before you ask, no, the LEGO Bat can't actually fly, but those rotors still look pretty awesome.

And damn, that Tumbler can get some serious speed going!

Head on over to the designer's website for the full parts lists, how you can get the instructions, and if you'd rather reverse engineer it on your own, 3D models of the vehicles.
