An interesting DC vehicle that isn't the batmobile.

I definitely misread that as Redbeard, I hope I'm not the only one.

It's a good ol' Tim in a bag.

Probably at least in part because that's from around the time I got into comics, I've always been partial to Tim Drake's original costume, which was echoed in Dick Grayson's B:TAS design. Without any green in the mix, a lot of people have a hard time recognizing him.

That elusive Redbird ... Sigh. I had this for so long on my wanted list. Years and years. I eventually removed it as a wanted and I still want it. LOL.

Back when polybags with Minifigures felt like substantial sets in their own right. This is one I always wanted and could never find.

I tend to agree. I started reading comics in the late 90s, and I followed Tim Drake's Robin series for quite a while, and that's his iconic costume, to me.

Got this set...and it's a reeeeally good build:). Although, I wish TLG would make:
https://batman.fandom.com/wiki/Redbird (on the blueprint). I mean...it's even kinda' fun on 'Batwheels'...and I NEEEEVER thought I'd watch a show like that/it (although, I'm also liking 'Bugs Bunny's Builder' unironically...:))

Ah, back when Lego Super Heroes DC wasn't just the Batman show. (I just remembered that the theme has been going for 12 years now. And with such 'stellar' builds too. Wild :/ ).

I recall seeing this one in a shop in Zwolle exactly once. It was also 12 euro or something like that at the time, which I didn't find to be worth it.

So I got 30282 Super Secret Police Enforcer. I'm still happy wuth that one :)

A LEGO DC vehicle which isn't prefixed with bat-? Inconceivable!

"Financed by", though.

I have a very big sentiment for the 2006 version. Great sets and this video game but this one is also good one.

I got this in a bag of mostly Kre-O from a comic book store years ago, sadly without Robin.

I wish I'd been able to find 30282 somewhere. I'd have bought multiples.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Ehhh, if you take out the Man of Steel tie-ins, it's very much a Batman show back then. Some cameos, but it didn't get super diverse until 2015
