From June 28 to July 8, the real Bat-pod from the film The Dark Knight Rises will be on display inside a truck that will be touring around town so fans can get up close. The 3.7-metre-long, 330kg Bat-pod has been brought all the way from Leavesden Studio in England to Hong Kong, its first stop on its tour of Asia.

Warner Brothers Hong Kong took to Facebook to poll local fans on the districts they wanted Batman's vehicle to appear. The results were Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei, Mong Kok, Central, Wan Chai and Tuen Mun.
