Check this out! here's some photos sent in by our friend Christopher. He recently went on the retail store toy hunt & came across these 2 cool Batman items ( Thanks Chris! )
The 1st pic shows a new variation on the new 2011 HOTWHEELS "MONSTAR JAM BATMOBILE" 2-Car Set by Mattel. The picture on the left is the one from last year and the one on the right shows the new packaging. Plus, it looks like the "1989 Diecast Batmobile" is slightly different.
Next up is a fan favorite. Here's a Fisher Price TRIO DC SUPER FRIENDS Action Figure 2-Pack Set with Clayface & Batman ( Who is "covered with mud", ha ha! ). I totally love these bat-toys!
Here's a quick post to share some photos of some Brand-New BATMAN Toys that are in stores now. The 1st pic is the 2011 MONSTER JAM BATMOBILE TRUCK by Mattel. It's HUGE! We're talking 1:24 Scale. Plus, it has a Die-Cast Metal Body...cool!
Next up is a very strange set of new toys. Fisher Price will be releasing these DC SUPER FRIENDS Little People Figures. These are made for Toddlers ( ages 1 to 4), but I know Adult Toy Collectors are gonna want these too. Shown here is the BATMAN & JOKER Set. Plus a new Batmobile & Joker Car! There will be many more figures, vehicles, & playsets. Yes, we're all gonna need a second or third job to buy all the cool Bat-Stuff in 2011, ha!
Check out these 2 cool photos of an amazing BATMAN Batmobile Toy Car Collection. No, I'm serious, click on them to see 2 HUGE photos that show a lot of detail, ha! What you will see are large close-up shots of many of the cars owned by our friend Cully. His focus is mostly the Batmobiles made by Corgi Toys and Mattel's Hot Wheels. He has the 1966 George Barris Batmobile, the 70's version, the Jokermobile, Catwoman's Car, the Bat-Boat, Bat-Bike, etc... way too many to list, ha! He also has most, if not all, of the variations of the Monster Jam Batmobile "Monster Truck". I wanna thank Cully for sending in these great pics & sorry it took me so long to finally getting them online, ha! But these photos are wonderful & I appreciate it. I also want to invite all other Bat-Blog Fans to share their pics too.
Just for fun, here's an older video from 2008 when the Monster Jam Batmobile did some tricks on the arena field. This was shot in El Paso, Texas: YYYEEEEE HHAAAWW!
If you're a brand-new reader of the Bat-Blog then I want to say, "Welcome & thank you for finding us!" Also, please remember that we post a few new BATMAN Wallpaper Backgrounds every Wednesday. We call it "Wacky Wallpaper Wednesday!" This week we have a few that are kind of crazy. The 1st one is the Monster Jam Batmobile. This custom car is extremely cool to see in person. It's way bigger than you would think it is... it's HUGE! The next background is the Batman Villain, The SCARECROW! This graphic image is a promo-shot from the DC UNIVERSE ONLINE Video Game. The cool thing about making this wallpaper is it looks like he is trying to grab your desktop icons, ha!
Here's a fun video from the Monster Truck Jam World Finals 8 showing the race of Grave Digger vs Batman. I have always been a fan of this very unique Batmobile Car just because it's so CRAZY! Now, I'm not gonna tell you who wins the race. You gotta watch the video to find out, ha ha!
Alright, Here's a news report from our Retail-News Reporter Batmobilly! It looks like he's been hitting a few stores lately. He tells us that at Toys-R-Us he saw the new wave of Hot Wheels Batmobile Cars, the cool 1:50 Scale. As an example the BATMISSLE from the Batman Returns movie is shown. Next is another diecast item from Mattel that even I didn't know existed yet. It's a Monster Jam "Monster Duo" Set. You get the Bat-Truck & a special Hot Wheels Car ( Sort of looks like the Vintage Movie version here ). I really like that car! The last photo is from Wal-Mart & he said he took the pic because getting these DVD movies for only 5 bucks each is a pretty good deal. That is, if you just need 1 of them. Actually they have bundled all 4 of these movies together in one set for around $10. But if you're just missing one of these then $5 is cool. Thanks Batmobilly for the great report! If YOU, the Bat-Blog Reader, see any cool bat-merchandise while you're out cruising the stores then please let us know!
OK, I'm not a huge fan of Monster Jam but I seriously love the Batman Batmobile Monster Truck!! A friend posted a video on YouTube when he went to the event in California recently & I had to show it. It's very fun to watch. Having a job driving one of those cars must be a blast! Oh yeah, one last thing, watch the large jump he does where he almost eats it!
