Vintage 1980's BATMAN & ROBIN SUPER POWERS ACTION FIGURE By Kenner

The year was 1984. The year of George Orwell's BIG BROTHER. A classic toy company, named Kenner, came out with a line of action figures called the SUPER POWERS COLLECTION. Shown up above is the Batman action figure made for the "Foriegn Market". They were re-named SUPER AMIGOS & featured both Spanish & English languages. The 2nd picture shows the Batman action figure on the RARE "Slim Card" & a Robin action figure on the regular card with blister-pack bubble. They made alot of action figures in this series, which we will showcase later, but our favorites of course are the Batman & Robin ones. They also made The Joker, Penguin, Superman, Green Lantern, Flash, Green Arrow, Plasticman, Hawkman, & even Clark Kent...wayyy too many to list here!

Shown in the pics are some extremely RARE Batman Toys like: Batman Bullhorn & Batman on a Stick, made by Bayshore Industries. Some Batman & Robin Society 3 1/2" Buttons with Display Box, made by Button World Mfg, Co. The Official Batman Hat made by Arlington Hat Co. The last picture shows some very RARE items made by the Irwin Corp: The injection-molded plastic Batman Plane, Batman Helicopter, Batman Ride-On Bike, & Batman Club Horn with header card!! OK, now the Society Button is kinda common to find but everything else is a total holy grail piece because they are almost non-existant!

Vintage 1966 Batman Toys - Plush Doll, Hankercheif, & Purse!

Shown up above are three really great & super-rare Vintage Batman Toys I recently received pix of. The 1st one is a Batman Plush Doll made by The Commonwealth Co in 1966. He measures about 18" tall & is pretty huge, like a big teddy bear! The 2nd photo is a child's hankerchief sent in by a loyal BAT-BLOG reader named John ( Thanx John! ). Even though the item is slightly faded it's still very hard to find & I love the vintage graphics anyway! OK, Now, I think the last item is the best & the most RARE! It's a Black Leather Purse in the shape of the Bat-Symbol & still has it's original sticker which is always gone! My lady collects Vintage Purses & would flip over this, it's really really cool!
