Code Flasher!

batman_codeflasher.jpg

It's not too often you find a Batman rack toy that looks like something that kids could actually use when playing Batman and Robin... but this is one of them!

Batman Club Memorabilia!

batman_clubstuff

Don't know why that Daredevil button is in there... here's a nice assortment of various Batman Club items!

Clock!

batman_clock

Here's a nifty clock, which appears to use Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez' artwork straight from the DC Style Guide.

Powerized Batman!

batman_climbing

Part of Remco's line of action figures that weren't action figures! Remco produced a whole line of toys like this, starting with Spider-Man and later including Batman, the Hulk, Superman and Captain America, each with some kind of silly motorized function. Other than that, the figures apparently had no moving parts!

Charm Bracelet!

batman_charms

Wish this was a better photo, so you could actually see the individual charms!

Serial Poster!

batman_chapter12poster.JPG

I wonder how the painter of this poster got the Batman figure so nicely on the bottom, but messed up the mask so much on the top!

Cereal Bowl!

batman_cerealbowl2.jpg

The yellow coloring on Batman's cape (plus the off-centered picture) lead me to wonder if this was a bootlegged item!

Ceramic Figurines!

Nice, aren't they? Not sure who made them.

Catwoman Nightlight!

batman_catwomannightlight.JPG

Part of a whole line of Batman-themed nightlights... I'd imagine if a Catwoman nightlight was produced these days, the sculpting would be much different... and it wouldn't be marketed for kids!

Cartoonarama!

This is a pretty cool paint by numbers set that doesn't show up on eBay that often! So far, I've seen this one and a Hulk set, but I've got a saved search for them. If you find these at a yard sale or swap meet for a cheap price, I'd say buy 'em as fast as you can!

Card Games!

batman_cardgame

Ah, two weeks ago, I posted the photo of the "Batienigma" game, and said it looked familiar... here's the US edition of the same game!

batman_cardgame

And here's a more recent Batman card game! Here's what the cards looked like:

I guess Batman was a popular figure for card games, because here's another one!

batman_cardgame2

Pretty nice card set, isn't it?

batman_cardgame1.jpg

Even Robin got a card game, although I don't understand why Superman's shield is on the back of the cards. Maybe it was a generic card back? It appears to be the same as the Batman one posted near the top... maybe the box had Batman on one side and Robin on the other?

batman_cardgame2.jpg

Nice cards with the Robin game, too! Here's a better look at some of them:

Rack Toys Assortment!

batman_cardedtoys1.JPG

How many of these rack toys can you spot that have nothing to do with Batman, or at least don't fit in with the whole Batman thing?

Cap Gun!

Obviously, another example of licensees not being that familiar with Batman when picking products to market as Batman items.

Does anyone out there know anything about these Candy Box and Toy things? Did the toys have anything to do with Batman, or were they typical Cracker Jack kind of things? And what kind of candy were in these?

Figural Cake Pan!

batman_cakepan

No way does the cake come out looking as detailed as this pan shows... especially after frosting it! But it's still very cool. I used to have the Superman pan this same company produced.

Buttons and Pins!

That's a nice assortment of stuff there, isn't it?

Belt Buckles!

batman_buckle

I'm real certain that this was a bootlegged item...

batman_buckle.jpg

This one is way too cool to be a bootleg, if you ask me. Can't imagine those points would be comfortable when you're sitting, though...

batman_buckle.jpg

This one could've used some better sculpting, although it's possible if a pristine one could be uncovered, the sculpt may look better on it.

batman_buckle70s

Case in point... I'd guess this one was made from the same mold, but has had some different wear to it over the years.

Figural Bubble Bath!

batman_bubblebath

Easily the best-looking Batman Bubble Bath figural bottle ever, IMHO.

Brazilian Batman Figures!

batman_brazil

Not sure if this Brazilian Batman figure was a bootleg or not!

batman_brazilfig.JPG

Same for this Brazilian Batman figure... note that neither of them have capes, which does make one tend to think they're bootlegs...

Bow Tie!

batman_bowtie.JPG

If you thought the Bolo Ties of a few days ago were silly, glom on to this bow tie!

Bop Bag!

batman_bopbag

Have I noted before the conundrum that most Bop Bags elicit? Why would you want to buy a Bop Bag featuring a hero, when the Bop Bags should have villains on them who need to be beaten?

Bootleg Batman and Robin Figures!

batman_bootlegfigs

No doubt produced South of the Border, Down Mexico Way... Here's a different bootleg Robin figure:
