Our expert's notes

A model helicopter miniature used in the production of Tim Burton’s Batman. This helicopter was used in the filming of the climactic chase sequence in which Batman (Michael Keaton) battled the Joker (Jack Nicholson), who was supported by his henchmen flying in a helicopter. Two scales of the helicopter were made for the scenes. This version is the smaller of the two, used for exterior shots of the helicopter in flight, and screen matches to the aftermath of Batman’s assault on the Axis factory. A replica of the Aérospatiale SA 341 Gazelle, the model is made primarily of plastic with wooden rotors. The rotors are fully functional, as are the search lamp and red flashing light fitted into the helicopter’s left hand side. Both are powered by a pair of 9V batteries stored within the cabin. The plastic seats, which hide the model’s battery packs, are fitted with black Velcro to allow easy access and replacement.
The lime green and white colour scheme features decals of the Joker laughing in front of a red and yellow target. The finish across the model is dirtied to look hard-worn, giving the model a realistic appearance.

In good production-used condition and fully functioning, the model helicopter is supplied with a certificate of authenticity from Warner Brothers. Dimensions: 62 cm x 89 cm x 23 cm (24½”x 35” x 9”)
