NEW! For 2012!! Our Good Friend and Ace Bat-Reporter BatDave said he spotted a fun new piece of Batman Merchandise the other night while at Target, a Huge BATMAN BAT-SYMBOL LOGO BEACH TOWEL! It's the Classic Comic Book version, the "yellow oval"... sweet! It's 100% cotton, measures about 28" x 58", and has a decent Retail Price of $10.99. ( Thanks BatDave! ) Hey, keeping up with all the brand new Batman merchandise is going to be a nightmare soon so if ANY Bat-Blog Readers out there see anything fresh in stores then please let us know!
A Bat-Blog Fan recently wrote in asking about a 1989 BATMAN Christmas Ornament he has in his Toy Collection and I gotta say that I'm completely stumped. First, I've never seen it before and Second, we're trying to figure out who made it. So, if any of you out there know who the manufacturer is, or where it was sold, then please let us know. It's sort of a hollow plastic "Action Figure" covered with black velvet. At first I thought it was some kind of "bootleg" item but it has an official copyright marking on the bottom of the feet, "DC COMICS ©1989". So, it was made during the early Tim Burton BATMAN Movie craze. Were there any others made too?
This is not really a review, because I have not even seen this new product in real life yet, but it is more of an announcement of a brand-new product. This is a brand-new BBC AUDIO CD with a Radio Show of a Classic BATMAN Adventure titled "The Lazarus Syndrome". Any Bat-Fan will recognize, from the title, that this story MUST involve R'as Al Ghul. Yes, that's the main focus of the play. This show was originally created back in 1989 & this is the 1st time it's been released. One thing that's both great ( & kinda sad ) is that the "Alfred" character is voiced by Michael Gough. He was the original Actor who played that part in the early Batman films & he just recently passed away. So, it's a wonderful way to enjoy his work again. On a personal note, I have always loved his variation on Alfred so it will be cool to hear. This product is out now & if you would like more information ( plus hear a sample audio clip ) then just click HERE!
