Fisher-Price Imaginext DC Superfriends Batman Action Figure Gift Set : Target Exclusive

Here's a new Fisher-Price Imaginext DC Superfriends item to keep an eye out for. This Gift Set is a Target Store Exclusive so you can only find it there. It retails for about $30 & that's a pretty good deal for what you get. So, don't pay the idiot scalper prices you see on eBay, ha ha! Once they restock their stores it should be around. I have pictures of almost all the figures & vehicles included but couldn't find a decent picture of the Robin figure & his special Motorcycle Bat-Bike. The other action figures include: The Joker, Mr. Freeze, & 2 different Batman. The vehicles are great too! They include: Bat-Copter, Bat-Wing Jet, & the Joker Car. I'm gonna be looking for one of these because as a multiple set it's really cool!

Video - Batman Batmobile Toy Collection

Here's a nice video sent in recently by a Bat-Blog Fan who's main focus is collecting just the Batmobile Toy cars. He just started to collect them & his collection is pretty cool so far. You can see he has a lot of the Action Figure Vehicles, some Corgi Die-Cast Cars, Batman Hot Wheels by Mattel, & a few Misc Toys. REMEMBER: We love to see people's Batman Collections & how you display them so if you have any pictures or video you would like to share then please send them in today.

VIDEO: TOY FAIR 2009 - Batman : The Brave and the Bold BATMOBILE / BAT-PLANE TOY

Here's a very interesting video from the 2009 TOY FAIR where a rep from Mattel shows off the cool function of the BATMOBILE / BAT-PLANE Toy Vehicle. It is, of course, from the new line of Batman: The Brave and The Bold Action Figures. It shows how it transforms from the car into the airplane...extremely cool! This toy is gonna be very popular with both little children & adult collectors!

Fisher Price Imaginext DC SUPER FRIENDS - ROBIN With BATCYCLE!

Just a quick posting here. This is a pic sent in by our good friend Batmobilly! He said he just saw this action figure at Wal-Mart & it's sort of a very hard one to find so he took a picture. It's the ROBIN WITH BATCYCLE from the Fisher Price Imaginext DC SUPER FRIENDS toy line. Later, I told Billy that one day I was at Toys-R-Us. They had a HUGE area for all this great DC SUPER FRIENDS Action Figure stuff ( Vehicles, Play Sets, Figures, everything! ). There was a TON of toys & it took-up almost 1/2 the row. Out of curiosity I started to add-up all the prices in my head. Just to buy all the stuff they had that one day it would have cost like $300 dollars! The thing to keep in mind is that this is not even all the toys they have made ( or will make ). Not even close. Plus some other stores have "Exclusives", etc... So, I guess if you're like me & can't afford to buy it all ( I tend to be a "Completest Collector" ) then at least just get the few pieces that you really like. Well, this ROBIN figure with Bat-Cycle would go on that list because it's really cool!

9 Old School BATMAN Vehicles That Rocked!!

Over at the BREAKDOWN COVER website they created a really neat list ( with photos ) of the Top 9 Coolest Classic Vehicles that were used on the 1966 BATMAN TV Show. Like the 1st one ( #9 ) was the "Batman Parachute Pick-Up Service" Van...that's funny! They also show some of the Custom Cars used by the Bat-Villains like Catwoman, The Joker, & The Penguin. Here's a link to check it out, just click HERE!

Funny BATMAN HUMOR Pictures, Photos, & Stuff!

OK, I thought it would be a good time for a laugh or two ( or 3 ) so, HERE WE GO! Most of these humor pics speak for themselves so I'll just let you look at them & gather your own conclusions. But I gotta say that the comic book panel from the Captain America comic book is really really funny! Especially when you consider that it's a Marvel Comics title & not made by DC Comics. Anyway, which one is your favorite?

NEW PHOTOS: THE DARK KNIGHT Batman Movie VEHICLE TOYS & ACTION FIGURES

Here's some brand-new photos of some new Batman Toys that are gonna come out during The Dark Knight movie. Two of them are "Toy Vehicles" with Batman figures. One looks like a Space-Age Super Bat-Jet, the other a Snow Plow. Does Batman go into the snow removal business? OK, The second one looks very military, like a tank, ha ha! I don't think these are gonna actually BE in the movie, just "made up", who knows. The Bat-Jet would be kinda cool! The picture in the middle shows an Action Figure Play Set that comes with a Bat-Gun that shoots a suction-cup ( Be careful, you'll put your eye out ). After you release the line you can put Batman on there so the Dark knight can slide over to the scene of the crime. That one looks pretty cool. "Take that Joker!"

DC SUPER FRIENDS Batman Vehicle: MY FIRST BATWING!

Just a quick post, in 2008 Mattel will be putting out this brand new DC SUPER FRIENDS toy so look for it soon! Awhile back we showed this new Batman Toy called MY FIRST BAT-WING for the 1st time ( check the archives ) but yesterday I received a photo in my e-mail showing what the original box is gonna look like....SWEET! Oh yeah, in the previous photo it was BLACK so I guess there will be 2 variations. Please comment & let us know which one you like better: the Blue one or the Black one? Dang, with all the freakin' cool Batman toys coming out this year I'm gonna have to get 3 part-time jobs to afford it all, ha ha!

THE DARK KNIGHT NEW BATMAN TOY NEWS: Bruce Wayne's Lamborghini Toy Car VIDEO

Just click on the photo up above as a link to that video...sweet! You can sort of see some of the other toys in the background ( wish I could have gone but New York is wayyy too far away for me ).

Video: HOT TOYS - TV News Story - The Dark Knight Movie Figures

Here's an interesting video of a Foreign TV News Story about the HOT TOYS Doll & Action Figure Company. It shows a lot of great shots of The Dark Knight Tumbler Batmobile Toy with the Batman Figure. Also included are the Joker Action Figure ( Heath Ledger, Version 2 with Rolling Eyes & Policeman Uniform ). Plus they cover some of their other movie properties very briefly. That list includes: Terminator Salvation, Watchmen, Ironman, The Godfather, & many more! But really the main part of the story seems to be Batman!

BATMAN THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD Batmobile - Hot Wheels Basic 1/64 Scale

YES! Awhile back, here at the Bat-Blog, we got the scoop on the latest Batman Hot Wheels Car but never had a decent picture of it. Until now! Ladies & Gentlemen, I present...the BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD Batmobile by Mattel! It's going to be "regular Basic Hot Wheel size", which is 1:64 scale. It's rumored to hit retail stores around late July 2010 so be sure to keep an eye out for it around then. I totally love this new Batmobile from the animated TV Cartoon series so you know I'm really excited! OK, enough talk, it's time to drool all over the pictures, enjoy!

TOY FAIR 2009: Batman The Brave and The Bold BATMOBILE CAR Action Figure Vehicle

Another big news item for Batman: The Brave and The Bold Action Figure line by Mattel at this years TOY FAIR 2009 was the release of the new BATMOBILE CAR Vehicle. The cool thing about it is that it will transform from a car into the Bat-Plane ( or is that "Bat-Jet" ? ). Either way it's totally AWESOME!! I'm really excited about this new toy & I gotta have it!

NEW BATMAN TOY NEWS: 2009 HOT WHEELS BATMOBILE VEHICLES 2nd Series

Photos for the 2nd series wave of Hot Wheels Batmobile Vehicles are starting to appear. The 1966 Batboat & '66 Batmobile Car with Trailer Hitch are in stores now & the others should arrive soon after. The top photo is from a recent Hot Wheels Collector Convention where they showed off the 1989 Movie Batwing, 1989 Movie Batmobile, 1966 Bat-Cycle ( reissue ), Super Friends Batmobile, & the Bat-Boat with 1966 Car. The next picture shows the back of the packaging for the Bat-Boat & on that we get to see the Dark Knight Bat-Pod Motorcycle, very cool! These vehicles are really great & I can't wait to get them all!!

BATMAN GOLF CART Inspired by "The Dark Knight" Tumbler Batmobile

OK, There's a few people who hated the new Tumbler Batmobile from the recent Batman movies & there's a ton of people who totally loved it ( I loved it ). But regardless of your opinion, you just gotta admit that this is an extremely clever Custom Golf Cart! Yes, this thing was totally inspired by "The Dark Knight" films. It's crazy! Unfortunately it's not an official product. It was customized by a Warner Bros employee & is currently used to get around the lot. Now, my question is, how many of you would totally buy one of these?

Kenner's SUPER POWERS 25th Anniversary - a Look At The Action Figures & Vehicles!

Oh Yea! I knew that I had to start this off with a showing of the 1980's Batman & Robin Action Figures, but that's not all!! In the Kenner's SUPER POWERS line of toys there were 5 that were what I'm calling "Batman-related". There was Batman, Robin, The Joker, The Penguin, & The Riddler! Wait! The Riddler? Some Americans might not remember the Riddler as one of the characters because he was only made as a SUPER AMIGOS figure for the South American market. In fact, he was made in Argentina! His name was "El Acertijo"...I love that! He's super-rare / very hard to find today & usually sells for quite a lot. OK, now, back to the US releases we all know & love! The figures were originally sold on large blister cards with a bubble, just like today's figures. But, they also sold these on very narrow cards later that toy collectors call "short cards". There's also some other buzz words but where I live that's what we always called them, ha ha! I've tried to show examples here & there, when I have pics of them. This 1st post will feature a few characters & then later posts will show others...so please follow along! Also, in this post, are some pictures of the 2 Batman-related vehicles they made. One, of course, is the now-classic Batmobile!! This car is a fan favorite & I have always loved it. It just has great style!! Now you're probably thinking, "Hey! I only see the original box here, where's the toy?". Well, that's gonna be shown later, I promise. The next vehicle is the Bat-Copter. This helicopter toy is a little harder to find then the Batmobile but just as cool ( I wish I had a better photo of the original box, sorry. But this pic does give you an ok example ). The funny thing is that Kenner had kept the mold for this product & re-issued it later in total black for one of the later Batman movies...funny! Now - I'm gonna be featuring more Kenner's SUPER POWERS 25th Anniversary goodness so just keep going!!

Kenner's SUPER POWERS 25th Anniversary Desktop Wallpaper!

OK, As sort of the very last post in this wacky promotion I wanted to leave everybody with some fun souvenirs to remember the whole event by. So, I made some "Super Powers 25th Anniversary" Desktop Wallpapers! In an earlier post I promised some more of the Classic Batmobile so here's a photo I hope you enjoy! It shows the Dynamic Duo sitting in their famous toy vehicle. Speaking of the Duo, the next image is just the Batman & Robin Action Figures by themselves, sort of simple & minimal. Plus, there's more! The Last background is the original comic art for the "Batman Super Powers" Model Kit Box done by Carmine Infantino. You might remember it in the "Products Section" ( See Above Posting ). Well, I hope you have enjoyed today's crazy event & please be sure to visit all the participating websites listed in the very 1st post. Thanks.

Video: BATMAN THE ANIMATED SERIES Kenner Action Figure TV Commercial TWO-FACE

Wallpapers - BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD Transforming Batmobile Toy Action Figure Vehicle

Tonight I found some official photos of the new Batman: The Brave & The Bold Batmobile Toy Action Figure Vehicle by Mattel. This is the large toy that transforms from a car into the Bat-Jet ( or is it Bat-Plane? ). The pictures were so giant-sized that I decided to make a few Desktop Wallpaper Backgrounds out of them...enjoy! Remember, we post brand-new backgrounds every Wednesday!
