Hi Chuck,

Any prediction on availability of a Wayne Study phone shell for the DIY folks? Thanks!

Great post! Switching gears... What would the real height need to be for a working batpole and how would it work? E.g. does the pole from the study go to a changing room with egress on a separate pole to the bat cave? If a single pole drop how is the wardrobe change perform while staying in contact ...

Great minds think alike! I did this a couple of years ago... Corgi Jr figures and redline wheel swap. I found a guy in the UK that sells reproduction figures in case you are still looking. Steve Flowers Model Supplies.

Just stumbled on this elementary school rendition of a 1966 style Batman episode with Joke, Penguin, Riddler, Catwoman, and a real batmobile. They did an excellent job!

Very cool story. Any plans to do a bat boat?

Restoration part supplier Steve Flowers in the UK. (I think he must be near Londinium). http://www.model-supplies.co.uk. I m...

Picked up a beat up 1st issue 1966 Corgi Toys Batmobile on eBay recently. Tires (tyres) were crumbling, windshields were cracked, front suspension broken, chain slasher not working, antenna gone. Also... Someone had attempted to repaint it at some point. Here is the before picture....

Batman is up against Hogan's Heros. Now why do Klink and Shultz remind me of Commissioner Gordon and Chief O'Hara?

Worked on the GCP cars this evening. Swapped out the plastic beacon on one of the cars with a red led and hooked up a circuit to a micro switch over the rear axel. Pushing down on the trunk toggles the led on and off. Here it's on... and here it's off...
