Vintage BATMAN TOY COLLECTION Family Photos: PART ONE

I get e-mails all the time from Bat-Blog readers & totally love it! But I gotta say that this one was sort of special. These pics came from a friend named Justin who sent a photo of himself when he was a little kid playing with some of his Batman Toys. The cool thing is that he still has those toys today. So, the 1st few photos are the Batman items he still has now & then the very last photo is him with those toys many years ago, as a kid. You can see that he had some of the stuff from the 1989 Batman movie by Tim Burton. This line of Action Figures was made by ToyBiz. There's Batman, Robin, The Joker, & Bob The Goon ( Joker's Sidekick ). He also still has his original Batmobile & Joker Van too! Now, these photos of his toys & the old photos are pretty cool, but the really neat thing is that now he has a son who's totally into Batman & he has taken a few shot of him with his brand-new bat-toys ( NOT Dad's stuff ! ). Trust me, in the future people are going to be saying, "Wow, what neat OLD Batman Toys"...ha ha. For this post I am showing Justin & his Vintage Toys from yesteryear. Then, in a later post, we will show the modern-day photos.

THE JOKER GOON LEATHER JACKET By Universal Designs

There's a new fashion clothing company out there now called UNIVERSAL DESIGNS & one of their new products is gonna be this Leather Jacket modeled after the uniform worn by "Bob The Goon" in the 1989 Batman film. Except, the twist is, the graphics are the modern day "Heath Ledger Joker" from The Dark Night movie & not the comic book version that was used in the older movie. But, I guess it's sort of an homage...that's cool!
