Re: New shirts 66 related

The rewindera.com shirts are cool but they are one of those companies that says they are not responsible for any violations of trademark or copyright that their “designers” might use. And that they will aggressively go after any designs that violate trademaekrk or copyright. Except that that’s all t...

Re: New SDCC Batman Exclusive

So I’m not the only one who visits the “collectables” section at Target and then gets depressed that it just seems like a huge waste of plastic. I have my fair share of Batman action figures but a lot of the stuff on the shelves seem like huge blobs of plastic that will eventually find it’s way to a...

Re: Doc Savage Mezco figure

I remember watching the Doc Savage movie when I was a kid and liking it quite a bit. I loved the idea of a guy leading a crew of experts to go off and have adventures. I didn’t realize it was based on till I saw them on the liquor store down the street where I bought my computers. Doc Savage sat nex...

Re: Corgi Club confirms Batmobile reissue in 2024

I ordered my car from the Hornby site in August. Anyone know when those will arrive?
I’m pretty excited because I have vivid memories of studying all the die cast cars in the display case at Emporium-Capwell department and wishing my parents could afford to get me one. Well now I can.

Re: 1970s Style Batman Mego

FTC released an Adams style Batman and Joker but the FTC bodies were so crappy I never bought one. The newest Mego figured though have had pretty good bodies so I think I’m gonna get it. Hopefully there’ll be a Robin and Jokervto go with him.

Re: 66 Lego Batmobile.

Lego aficionado here. This one will be larger like the “collectors edition” of the ‘89 and Begins batmobiles. I don’t think it’ll be minifigure scale but it might be a larger minifigure scale. But at any rate it’s got way more detail than the previous smaller version. I’d take a pic of the smaller o...

Re: Hot Wheels 85th Anniversary Batmobile Collection

I can’t remember if we had a big wheel but my sister and I did love our Marx “Wild Rider”, which had six wheels that and cranks that could turn each 3 wheel set backwards or forwards. It was fun as heck and apparently very noisy, according to the neighbor trying to put her baby down for a nap.
