Aurora logo returns. Possible Batman and Robin combo kit.

[BatToys]

I read Atlantis models now owns the trademark to the oval Aurora logo. A year ago they told me they would like to take the Aurora Batman and Robin and release them both in one box. There's some obstacles about getting the Batman mold though but they are in talks. I wrote them I would like to see the engraved emblems and owl restored and the boxes in gift wrap cellophane like Aurora used to do.

And the original head too!

Frank, if this come true, you will be known as the “Toy Whisperer”.

Now this?

That’s quite a streak!

Boy, in a perfect world, Atlantis might increase the size for the Robin kit so he isn't so incredibly small compared to Batman. If Polar Lights could do it with their Marvel character kits, it can be done for Robin.

I agree with Lou-- Toy Whisperer indeed!
We never heard anything from that Mexican company that has the Ideal Helmet molds-- hopefully that comes to be someday.

It would also be nice if they could offer both the original head sculpts and the updated Comic Scene Robin and the SuperPower MPC Batman reissues.

Lou, I also help get Revell to reissue the Lincoln Futura. Their production manager Bill Lastovich called and asked me if they should reissue the Lincoln Futura. I said YES! That it would sell well because people could convert it into an accurate Batmobile which at the time only the Aurora existed. Later he said they lost the windshield mold and will make a new one but should they make it with the defect? The mold defect was a bifocal line on the original front canopies. I said no bifocal defect because the original car did not have that bifocal line so they made a new mold.

Andy, The Mexican toy factory did reissue the Ideal Batman helmet in Mexico with eyebrows painted on and a new copyright stamped on the back. I've only seen pictures. The late great Peter J Greenwood sent me pictures of the Ideal molds because he used to be the agent of the owner. Peter was toying with the idea of just reissuing the rare yellow parts from the JLA playset.
He said they had all the original molds to the helmet, belt, JLA playset, Captain Action figures, Silver Streak, and Marx toys like Big Loo!

A lot of parts from the Ideal Batman utility belt have been sold in as bootlegs in Mexico.

Here's a picture of the Batman JLA playset cave mold in perfect condition.
