Ryan's CUSTOM BATMAN TOYS - Mighty Muggs Madness!






The Bat-Blog totally digs creativity, in any form, and here's a GREAT example! Here are some photos from a Fan who likes to create Custom Batman Toys. He takes Hasbro MIGHTY MUGGS Figures & repaints them. Now, for Non-Toy-Collector-People out there who don't know, Hasbro has the license to make Marvel Comics Superhero Characters & Mattel does DC Comics. So, since Mighty Muggs are made by Hasbro then they will NEVER do any BATMAN Figures. So, for the people who want them your only choice is to... customize them!

Our Friend Ryan has done an extremely excellent job on his Customs. First up is Robin & he looks great! He has also done Bane, Clayface, Batman, & Azrael. Please check out the photos because they are AWESOME!! The Bane & Clayface are my 2 top favorites, then Robin. Which ones do you like?

I wanna thank Ryan for sharing these pics & if you want to see more of his cool artwork then just click HERE!

Custom Toys: COMIC BOOK BATMAN Mighty Muggs Figures






I recently got a very nice letter from a Batman Fan in the Philippines named Nico. He sent these wonderful photos of 2 Custom Batman Mighty Muggs Figures he customized & painted to look like 2 different versions of the Dark Knight. The 1st one is styled after Jim Lee's artwork & the 2nd one is inspired by Alex Ross. I gotta say that they are both so totally GREAT that it's really hard to choose a favorite! Thank you Nico for sending these in, you did an amazing job on both of them. I think that if you had not told me about the different comic book artist's styles you used that I still would have been able to recognize their influence. Bat-Blog Readers, if you would like to see more of this very talented artist's work then please click HERE!

CUSTOM MIGHTY MUGGS FIGURES: Batman, The Joker, & The Scarecrow Too!




OK, This morning, when trying to decide what to post today, I got into a total "Celebrate Creativity" kind of mood, ha ha! Ya know, I like when Batman Fans get creative & make artwork or crafts to show their appreciation for the character. Some creative people out there like to customize things. Here's a great example: Here are 3 Custom Mighty Muggs Figures that have been totally repainted to look like Batman ( the Michael Keaton 1989 movie version ), The Joker ( Jack Nicholson, '89 version ), & The Scarecrow ( From the newer Batman Begins & The Dark Knight movies ). These are just so well done I had t post them! Plus, they're kinda funny too. Now, for people unfamiliar with the "toy business". Mighty Muggs Figures are made by Hasbro & they make actual products like this of G.I. Joe, Transformers, Star Wars, Raiders of The Lost Ark, Marvel Comics Superheroes, etc...but they DO NOT make DC Comic characters ( Mattel has the exclusive license ). So, for some people who love these figures, but want DC Universe-Style characters, they just go ahead & make their own. I hope you enjoyed these in some kinda way & if you actually make stuff like this then please let us know. Our e-mail button is ALWAYS at the top right-hand side of this page.

BATMAN Custom Mighty Muggs Figure with Display Box





A friend sent me some photos he found on eBay. A seller named "Fuller5326" recently offered a Custom Batman Mighty Mugg Figure & it looks extremely cool. Not only is the figure pretty awesome but he also created a special display box for it that looks just like the real deal, a great parody! Now, as sort of a back story, Mighty Muggs are made by Hasbro but Mattel has the exclusive rights to Batman so Hasbro will never make any DC Comics characters. Right now they're making Marvel Comics ones & people have wondered when they're gonna do DC...there ya go. So, a lot of people who are totally into creating custom toys are making these, they're really interesting. I really like it when Batman Fans get totally creative so if you have any pictures of your art projects then please send them in.

Custom Mighty Muggs BATMAN CHARACTER Figures






Mighty Muggs. We toy collectors, who have surfed through the toy isles of major department stores, have all seen them. They're super-cute little figures with a very modern twist to them. They're made by Hasbro & so far they have done a lot of Star Wars & Marvel Comics characters. I have even seen some recently that were from The Raiders of The Lost Ark movie. A friend told me they have even made some that are Transformers & G.I.Joe but I have not seen those yet. Personally, I think they're pretty cool & once I noticed they did some Marvel Superheroes I have been wondering if they would be coming out with some DC Comics heroes as well but I have not seen any yet. It might be because Mattel has a pretty good agreement with DC Comics to make their action figures. Now, I'm not completely sure about this but I'm just speculating. Well, a Custom Toy Artist named "Are-Jay" has decided he can't wait any longer & has started to make custom figures out of old Mighty Muggs figures. A lot of the "Batman-related ones" he has done is shown here & he's done a few other characters that are pretty cool too. I think this guy has a lot of talent, & you know how we love creativity here at the old Bat-Blog, so here they are! There's a "Classic-Style Silver Age Batman" with blue/yellow costume...awesome ( my favorite )! There's a version from The Dark Knight movie. There are also some characters from Batman: The Animated Series, like: Batman, Robin, Harley Quinn, & Batgirl! If you're somebody who can appreciate this kind of art then please check out his website for more material. Here's a link:
