They retooled the kit after the first movie version.
The removeable engine was included in the Batmobile that came out in the "Batman Returns" (one with Catwoman and Penguin) movie. It was based on the scene when the Penguin accesses the Batmobile and implants all sorts of remote controls to crash Batman while he's driving.
Other two kits from that movie were the snap-tite Batmissile and the Batjetskiboat. Rather cool kits. Rob Gronovius Visit my motor pool in the
