Just a hand buzzer I picked up on Ebay. Doesn't seem like they have changed much in the past 50 years. They still look very much like the one that was used on the show.
Stay tuned. I will soon be posting updated photos with an improved wig and a few minor modifications.

Thank you. I worked on it for months. I really appreciate your nice comment. I just replaced his wig with one in a more accurate color. I will post updated pictures soon.
Here he is with the new wig. I also shortened the tie and added a vintage watch like the one Cesar wore in several episodes. Thanks for all of your interest in my project!

I bought a curly, bleach-blonde synthetic wig on Ebay. In order to get the synthetic wig to take color, I had to use boiling water and Rit DyeMore. The problem with that, is that it takes all of the curl out of the wig. So I had to re-curl it, and then style and trim it. It was worth going through all of that twice, however, as I am much happier with the color now. Thanks for your nice comment!
Here is a quick snapshot of the gang so far. I will be adding Penguin and giving all of the others a bit of a facelift over a period of time. Then it will just be a matter of arranging the whole display. But here is how they are looking at the moment.
(Please excuse the bowler hat on Riddler. I purchased it recently & tried it on him, but forgot to take it off for the photo.)

Wowsers! That is going to be one heck of a display! Really digging the pose on the Batgirl!
