107 Corgi Batboat

The first Corgi 267 Batmobile was produced in 1966. It came out in black and had red wheels with gold hubs. Shortly after 6 months after its first production, Corgi came out with the Batboat 107 on a trailer that was supposed to be attached to the rear of the 267 Batmobile.

Unfortunately, there was an error made as the trailer couldn't be attached to the car. Corgi had to quickly fix this by making a black plastic trailer coupling that pushed to the batmobile’s exhaust. Corgi later developed a more permanent tow-hook attached to the vehicle. This version is more common compared to its first coupling-version which is believed to be rare these days.
