You say thank you grandma because she did her best

Why don't all cops drive around in cars with their name and face plastered all over the side?

[–] FlyingSquid 27 points 4 months ago (3 children)

You'd think they would in order to strike fear in the hearts of criminals.

[–] CodexArcanum 10 points 4 months ago

🎶 A superstitious cowardly lot! 🎶

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Just boil some water. You'll be scared soon enough

They should have to display cute lil nicknames beneath the driver’s side window, like fighter pilots.

Unlike fighter pilots, the nicknames should be community generated.

Am I the only one who thinks its kinda cool? I mean, within the comic lore it's absurd that he would drive this, but from a consumer standpoint, it's pretty cool.

[–] FlyingSquid 10 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I guess if it was part of some sort of DC/Hot Wheels series where all the cars were like that, but it didn't appear to be. I mean if there was a Joker one and a Robin one and so on, maybe. But there wasn't.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

The box says "9/20" so presumably it is part of a series but all the cooler characters were already sold out.

[–] Lost_My_Mind 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Where are you seeing that it's not?

[–] FlyingSquid 3 points 4 months ago

The store where I took the photo.

[–] batmaniam 5 points 4 months ago

I assumed it was "Harley Quinn" Jim Gordon because THAT Jim absolutely would. He's a damn good cop.

[–] gibmiser 1 points 4 months ago

It would be fun because that would be the car that you smash into everything and constantly shit on in your imaginary Story.

[–] TechAdmin 19 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Hot Wheels has Marvel series of cars too and took picture of this "well known" one recently.

[–] TheBat 3 points 4 months ago

Bitchin' ride

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

His right arm looks very uncomfortable.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

It’s not his.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] FlyingSquid 19 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes, he apparently drives around in a car with his name and face on the side.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

I mean doesn't every police commissioner have livery of themselves?

[–] Cadeillac 9 points 4 months ago

$3.99? I haven't looked at Hot Wheels in forever. Poor kids

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Wouldn't a cop want a 4-door car? Where's Gordon going to put anyone he arrests?

[–] FlyingSquid 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Batman doesn't need four doors, so neither does Gordon!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (2 children)

The small talk would be so awkward for the supervillain who has to sit next to him.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

"Can we get drive-through?"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Just as Gordon started to sing along and drum on the wheel, the suspect leaned forward to press the skip button with their nose.

'Try me', Jim cried, 'Try me once more and I'd drop you to the BatTaxi'.

~ Jump cuts of Batman doing a barrel roll in a ridiculously small black cab with jet engines ~

'I don't applaud his methods', said Gordon, 'But sometimes I think he's got the point'

Jim puts on the same song and glances at the frightened suspect right in their eyes.

[–] FlyingSquid 2 points 4 months ago

No worries. The front seat folds down so he can still put them in the back.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

If you only have two, then the other cops have to transport them.

You'd think Gordon could have nabbed himself a better ride through civil asset forfeiture.

Have you seen the kind of criminals that are in Gotham? Gordon needs to be driving around in an MRAP. And he's probably seized a few from various Rogues' Gallery henchmen.
