New Batman Merchandise Made By NECA To Look Out For!



The other day I was trolling the NECA Website for some new Batman products. Later this year they will release 2 new Batman Items that are not "Dark Knight" movie related but will feature vintage retro-style graphics. The 1st piece of merchandise uses the most retro-thing you can have... it's a large BATMAN GOLDEN AGE 1939 COMIC BOOK COVER Hanging Fabric Wall Scroll. Of course, it's the cover to Detective Comics #27 which we all know was the very first appearance of the caped crusader! It measures about 22" X 32", which is actually kinda BIG! I'm really liking this item & think it will be a "must have"! They also have a vintage ACTION COMICS / SUPERMAN cover too. The next photo shows us some neat SUPERHERO TIN BANKS they're gonna release & one of them is Batman! The other two are Superman & Wonder Woman. These too have retro-graphics because they sort of look like they have 1980's artwork. If anyone knows who the artist is for these please let me know. I think they look kinda like Dick Giordano's artwork. Anyway, here's some new stuff to keep an eye out for & if ANY Bat-Blog Readers hear about ANY brand-new Batman Merchandise then please shoot us an e-mail so we can share. This blog is all about connecting collectors with great information!

BATMAN, JOKER, & PENGUIN Super Saver Banks by MEGO


This is sort of a short posting because the picture above explains everything! Here are three large plastic banks made by MEGO in the 1970's. Yes, Mego, the 8" tall action figure doll toy company! These were called SUPER SAVERS & besides these 3 they also made one of Superman ( not shown here ). These vintage "toys" are great for display! Be sure to check the BAT-BLOG ARCHIVES for many more Vintage Batman Toys made by Mego, Corgi, Hot Wheels, Kenner, Ideal, etc...
