Re: Mego TV Batman coming to Big Lots

Hard pass on the Big Lots figures. As one of the original "Mego kids" of the 70s, I was quite satisfied with Batman and Robin being generic versions based on the comics. I never desired Mego-scaled figures based on the '66 TV series at all, or the Fleischer Superman, for that matter. Where...

Re: McFarlane Toys doing Batman 66 figures?

If the made a Lee Meriwether sculpt, then you get 4 or 5 figures Commissioner Gordon is leading the FB poll. I'll apologize in advance for ever-being the Debbie Downer when it comes to the reality of which likenesses are available on the license, but unless Lee has been added (which to my knowledge...

Re: TO THE BATPOLES #206: Neil Hamilton: From silent film star to Gotham’s top cop

Solid research on Hamilton, guys. As much as the lives of so many people associated with Batman have been discussed over the decades, much of the life of Neil Hamilton remained a mystery, or dusty references to his professional life. Further, Hamilton was such a "middle road" kind of perso...

Re: Any ideas to help create this Hornet Display?

So I take it the car platform image rotates independently (or is intended to do so), but the title and transcribed narration remains static?

Re: CBS Sunday Morning Bruce Lee Tribute

Once again the 1966 Green Hornet TV series is portrayed as an example of Hollywood's perceived problems in casting. That is really unfortunate. They have looked at the glass and they see it half empty. In my humble opinion, the role of Kato in the 1966 TV series gave the character of Kato a lot mor...

Re: NECA 66 Batcuffs, radio and batgirl radio

At first glance, I would order the Batcuffs and Batradio, but I'd like to see comparisons to the suviving props.

Re: Hot Toys to make Keaton 1966 Batman style costume

Those rubber underpants can't be too comfortable! And it looks like I was right about The Flash not being a hit-- in fact it's dubbed the biggest superhero failure of all time by this article. https://www.dexerto.com/tv-movies/the-flash-is-the-biggest-superhero-movie-flop-of-all-time-2207388/ The s...

Re: Suspenders swatch allegedly owned by Bruce Lee and worn as part of Kato’s chauffeur’s uniform for sale on eBay

I'd never pay for a 1/4" piece of something like that. I remember when one of the hotels in New York cut up the bed sheets the Beatles slept on into 1" pieces and sold them. Nope. I've found that end of celebrity collectibles often connected to those who wish to have a "personal"...

Re: Does the Ampell Arms Acro 1 pellet gun look like they borrowed lines from the Green Hornet gas gun?

Does anyone else think that the mid-1970s Ampell Arms Acro 1 pellet gun favors the Green Hornet gas gun from the TV show in terms of the overall lines? I wonder if the designer was a fan of the show. Very fascinating find! I cannot find documentation on the Ampell Arms pistol's design history, but ...

Indeed.
