T is for Toy Fair 2020 Reports - Bats about Hummers!

Another lazy-post, but it's just a bit of fun. There were several Batman related toys launched at Toy fair 2020, the previously mentioned pop-will-eat-itself Transformer/Batmobile, a 'dressing-up' Bat-Belt with interactive pouches and some other stuff, and one of the launchees, probably the Batmobile one (I don't know for sure as this was parked elsewhere?) had brought this in to add a little frisson to the proceedings!

It's built on a Hummer chassis and apparently there were 10 built to the same standard, presumably a few simpler ones were knocked-up for the stunt-work?

The wings have prefect symmetry so would provide no lift or downforce (grip) at all, but it's for looks in a silly movie, as is all the stealth motif work with the saw-tooth cut-outs and edges - nobody tries to detect vehicles with radar (houses, masts and trees!), they listen for them then/or look for them!

While the windscreen is so restricted (and consequently restrictive!) you'd just keep hitting things!
