Bat Squirt!

[RSS]

I found this little guy at a flea market recently, I'd never actually seen one in real life and was surprised at how small it is.





These were made by Durham, who also produced a Superman. I can't figure out why Marvel is credited, as they didn't make a Spider-Man. More on Durham soon.

The one on top has the trigger in the back, the one on the bottom has a front trigger. I think the front trigger one is bigger, and there is one the same size of Spider-man.

I have the Superman one.

I remember seeing these in comic ads, but I don't think I've ever seen one in person. I love how a lot of the toys from this era have the cowl sitting so far off the nose. Very Adam West-y.

There is indeed a Spider-Man, and these came in two sizes, though you'd never know it from the card art. Here's a loose large Spidey:

and a carded small one. Note the US quarter for scale:

I'm 90% sure I had the Batman one when I was a kid, the pics are really stirring some old memories!

I had the Batman bike horn for that.

I had the bigger Spider-man one when I was a kid.
