THE BATMAN Vending Machine Sticker Set of 12 ( NEW )

Last night I was driving way back home from my sister's house & hit a truckstop for gas. I went inside to get a coffee & right by the door was a vending machine selling "THE BATMAN" vinyl stickers for 50 cents each! There are 12 to the complete set & they are really nice quality! I see these machines at my local 7-11 but they never had Batman! The funny thing is I kept feeding quarters into the machine & kept getting the stickers in number order, without getting a duplicate, ha ha! After getting the complete set I thought I would buy some for my 2 nephews but then it was empty....wow, what luck for me, ha ha!! ( Click the Small Picture To See Larger One ).

Custom Mego Action Figure Dolls & Batmobile Car!

Over at the 1966 Batman Message Boards there's this guy named "BAT-ROB" who likes to customize 1970's Mego Action Figure Dolls & their accessories. Here's a picture of a Mego Batmobile that he customized & some dolls too. Basically he gave the car alot more details & some paint but what an amazing difference! He even added the glass windshields & made the tail-fins more accurate...WOW! I think he did such a great job on this I had to share it w/ my readers! Looking at the figures in the background he customized the BATGIRL to look like the "Yvonne Craig" version with the purple suit....nice! It also looks like he did a little custom work on the Batman & Robin because I don't remember Mego making an "Adam West Style" Cowl for Batman!! He also did a cool 60's style BATCYCLE & even a full-scale BATCAVE just like the 1966 TV Show. I'll probably share those later so check back. ( Click the Small Picture Above To See Larger Photo ).

Batmobile Wrecked & ZITS Comic Strip! ( Humor )

Every now & then I like to post some funny Batman-related pictures to help bring joy to the world, aaahhhhh. But the 1st pic here is actually NOT funny! This is a popular photo circulating on the net about some guy who owns a replica 1966 Batmobile who had a car wreck!! It kinda breaks your heart doesn't it?! OUCH! To lighten the mood I thought I would add a funny ZITS Comic Strip I found on the message boards. We have this strip in our local newspaper & it's usually the only one that is funny ALL the time!

Pictured here are three very RARE Bat-Items from the UK! About 7 years ago I used to have 2 "Pen Pals" in the UK that I used to trade with. Mostly new stuff like cereal boxes, candy boxes, fast food premiums, holiday themed items like Easter or Halloween.
