BATMAN COLLECTING: 2 New Pieces To Watch For

"Being a Batman Collector" is really the main focus of the Bat-Blog. So, every chance we get, we try to feature Brand-New Bat-Merchandise or Older Vintage Toys. Here are 2 new items to keep an eye out for on your next hunt. The 1st photo is an AUTO WORLD 1966 BATMAN TV Show BATMOBILE SLOT CAR... in WHITE Color! Yes, besides making the actual Slot Car Set ( with track & everything ) Auto World sells just the car by itself. But they're not stopping there! They are also coming out with a few variations: the Classic "Black" Batmobile, a "Chrome" version, & a "White" one ( Shown up above ). Next is a very fun piece of Bat-Memorabilia, it's a BATMAN Belly Washers Bottle! This one was recently found in a Safeway Grocery Store ( Thanks Kevin ) & before you think you might already have this one, it is new & the figure on top is different.

Auto World's BATMAN TV 1966 BATMOBILE - The JOKER'S CHALLENGE Electric Racing Slot Car Set

If you're a long time reader of the Bat-Blog then you're already familiar with this incredible new bat-product coming out next January 2011. We were one of the very 1st websites to report on it & we have been crazy for it ever since. We're talking about the Auto World JOKER'S CHALLENGE Electric Racing Slot Car Set with the 1966 Batmobile! Well, here are some official photos of the actual box design & it's different than the ones we featured before, which were "prototype pics". I gotta say, the new packaging design is way better & I love that the graphic of the 1966 Batmobile Car is so prominent. It's really BIG & looks extremely cool. Also, another thing this toy company does is they sell the huge play set with both slot cars & track. Then, they also sell the slot cars individually. Well, shown here is the packaging for that too. The last photo is a "prototype pic" of the Batmobile. Oh man, I'm really gonna have to get all this stuff, ha ha!

The JOKERMOBILE Will Be The Other Car in The New 1966 BATMAN BATMOBILE SLOT CAR Race Set

This is just a quick post to confirm that the 2nd car in the New 1966 BATMAN TV SHOW BATMOBILE SLOT CAR RACE SET will be the Jokermobile! We reported on this brand-new AUTO WORLD toy when it was news last May but there was some confusion on what the other slot car was going to be. Well, just take a look at this more current picture up above & you can see, it's... the Jokermobile! Yeah, sort of looks like a Vintage Nomad or Station Wagon, pretty cool!! The estimated release date for this cool slot cars set will be around October 2010.

New 1966 BATMAN TV SHOW BATMOBILE SLOT CAR RACE SET From Auto World!

The 1966 TV Batmobile Car has just resurfaced on the cover of the Auto World Slot Car 2010 Catalog!! It looks like they will be making a Special '66 BATMAN TV SHOW Slot Car Race Set with the Batmobile & another "Villain Car". I'm not sure which evil doer it will be because the prototype box art show a vehicle that looks like it belongs to the Joker & the Catalog says "Penguinmobile" where they show the race track layout ( see pics ). But don't worry, the Bat-Blog will let everybody know once we get some more information. In the meantime, please enjoy these photos & totally drool!! The 1st image is an idea of what the box art might look like. The remaining photos are directly taken from the Auto World 2010 Slot Car Catalog. Oh man, this looks extremely cool...I'm completely excited!!
