Latest NON 66 Batman item I bought today

Post by Larry A. »

Greetings Friends. I just got a great deal ($5.00) for "Rock Candy" Blue/Grey Batgirl. I will be repainting her to match Yvonne's suit. I know that the B/G suit's boots are too tall, but...oh well! It's a cute figure.

I was thinking of a way to display Batmobiles made by Mattel/Hot Wheels. I found this:

I picked up the new Mego Batman and Batman Beyond preorder. Also ordered the new Dark Knight returns series from Target, and a couple of different ones from Entertainment Earth.

Hey Lou
That Cloth Dark Knight figure- I think it's from Beast Kingdom-- did you pre-order that one or is it in stock yet? I pre-ordered from BBTS and I'm going to make my decision on whether or not to actually order it when they announce it's in. Nice thing about BBTS is you get a chance to jump out from pre-orders.

I don't know much about the company Beast Kingdom, I do know they have a lot of figures in the pipeline and they're bigger than the Mezco clothed figures and have various features- I think this Dark Knight Batman's eyes light up. They also have done an '89 Batman and Joker who look like shrunk down versions of the Hot Toys releases, but I've yet to see any in person photos so we'll see how production lines up next to prototype.

They're also doing the blue version of the Dark Knight Batman-- but it comes as a two pack with Robin-- I think you can buy Robin separately but not Batman, which is odd. I kind of like the Blue one...

That’s next on my list. I’m going with black for now to build a costume using Chuck’s 70’s cowl. At my age, that’s more realistic, LOL. That Mego may be the basis for an 8” version as FTC has a larger/thicker body. We’ll see. Image
Tony Mei has a 1/6 on ebay for some big money that’s sharp.it’s Battle damaged, which is really not my choice. Medicom has a 1/6 scale too.

Turns out I have a Mego scale on order at Entertainment Earth. Should be shipping in the next 2 weeks. Target said their dates slipped to April 3

I like to buy the novelizations of superhero movies, they usually provide some behind the scenes details.

Just got this one - but its a young adult version. Apparently they don't write novelizations any longer.

This just arrived from an eBay purchase. Hallmark Golen Age Batman & Robin statue " The Dynamic Duo". I was the lucky bidder at $12.50! Even with the postage cost this was still way under the original purchase price of when it hit the market in 1996, and this item is pretty much in mint condition.

I plan to change the cape on the 1939 to the above, but inside out ($7). I’m still working on the utility belt.

Hello Fellow Citizens.:!: Whilst at the local Kroger's Super Centre, I came across the "Hot Wheels" 'Batman: The Animated Series' Batplane. It is a 2 tone redish color aand it has a nice stand. The nicest part is that it was $.98! I'd prefer the all black one, but they didn't have it. Better the odd colored one than none at all.
