    How about a Batcycle !!!

    OK is the Batcycle off the table for FTC?

    A nice repro black Batcycle with 2 sets of stickers, original Mego stickers and 66 TV stickers.

    I don't think it was ever on the table to begin with. I'd love one though.

      I'd like to see them do one in purple for Batgirl as well. And a red Robin cycle!

            I'd be all over a 66 redeco of the Batcycle.

                My thought exactly, they could really get 4-5 nice cycles out of the tooling, perhaps with alternate sticker sets:
                *black Mego
                *blue Mego
                *blue DC Batgirl
                *red DC Robin
                *purple '66 Batgirl
                *black '66 Batman

                The black and blue ones could include the standard Mego and custom stickers.
                WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                  Funny, I had a similar exchange with Anthony today. I had all of yours, plus green for GA/GL and lime green for Joker/Riddler. Flash for red, black Canary for black, Superman for blue........etc, etc, etc. The charm of the 70s vehicles wasn't limited to Mego - Hot Wheels, Corgi, Empire, etc. all had some neat ideas and the more outrageous the better as far as I'm concerned. Superman needs a cycle like Hulk needed the Empire van. Throw in a yellow one for Reverse Flash; mix n match a yellow/green run and voila the Aquacycle. Red Tornado needs a ride...........I'd buy them in bulk.

                    ^ Ach, we can dream... I'm waiting for a reissue of the Batcave as both Shazam's Rock of Eternity (with Seven Deadly Enemies of Mankind art and exclusive Wizard figure) and the Aquacave (with Tempest, Mera, or sea-camo Arthur).

                    Would FTC consider the cycle if they could get greater use of the (probably expensive) tooling?

                        I know Robin has his own bike, but I think it's funny how he's made to ride sidecar when Bats is around.

                          I would really support the idea of motorcycles for Batgirl and Robin. And of course a repro of the original with removable sidecar.

                            How about one for Fonzie? definitely for Batgirl, Robin would be cool too.

                              I know! I hope Anthony agrees, too.

                              I was thinking a cycle repro would be in the bat-shaped style, which colored my other suggestions.
