1/50 Scale Elite Batmobile

I saw the Elite 1/50 scale 66 Batmobile at the show on the weekend. I had kind of gotten use to the idea that I would not get this one, but now after seeing it in the flesh so to speak I really want it. I can not get over how nice it is. It really makes the standard version look kind of weak. The other thing I saw was the Santiago Tumbler/Batpod set. I think I kind of want that too. I guess after a couple months lull in Batman acquisitions I am going through a bit of withdrawal. But I am really happy with my recent additions.

Batman weekend

Great Batman weekend! I scored me a Ed McGinness Black and White Batman and I do mean scored, got him for 20 shekels, because there is a small chip on the inside of his cape. I also got my self a 1/50 scale Super Friends Hot wheels Batmobile, that I payed through the yin yang for. I have wanted it for a long time and I know that any minute now they will probably show up on Zellers shelves for a fraction what I payed for it, but I just in case they don't I really did want it and it was cheaper than EBay.

New Hot Wheels Batmobile

My wife collects hot wheels and was looking on hot wheels collector site and spotted this poster for the 2010. I know it is not a great picture but if you look at the third car from the end on the last row of the new models section, it looks like a Batmobile and it is in fact a Batman the Brave and the Bold Batmobile in 1/64 scale.

This is my Mego 9" Joker he is in pretty good shape. But as you can see he is missing his shoes and costume needs a little repair but other than that he is good. I am quite please with this one.

MEGO POCKET HERO’S

I was digging in one of my many boxes of Batman items and found these and I thought I would share them with you. They are Mego Batman and Robin pocket figures from the late 1970’s; these particular ones were made in 1979. As you they are a little worn or “played with condition”, but not too bad considering they are thirty years old. They are some what rare, even in this condition they can go for upwards of forty dollars on EBay. Still in they package they are really rare and they can fetch ten times that.
It is hard to say if they are complete, some times these figures were packaged with a moulded rope coil and batarang and some times they were packaged with out them and as far as I can see there was no particular reason for this other than sometimes they did and sometimes they did not. I have to say I really like the older stuff from a nostalgic angel many of these items I had when I was young. Don’t get me wrong the quality of most of the newer stuff is way better really there is no comparison in that sense. But with the items from the 60’s and 70’s and even 80’s I almost feel like I am preserving my own little part of Batman history, the toy part anyway.

Batman The Brave and the Bold Batmobile

My son wanted me to post some pictures of his Batmobile that I gave him for Christmas. He really likes"that it can transform to a Batjet",his one complaint is that it did not come with Gorilla Grodd. I kind of like it as well, I sorry I did not pick one up for my self.
