    Batman exploding bridge playset?

    Does anyone know the going rate on this playset in real nice condition complete?

    I can't answer that except to offer a follow-up question.... *hypothetically* how much would a working activator change the value? So far as I know, they don't exist...
    (I had one brand new in the box around 1980ish and can say firsthand they didn't work when they were brand new either)

      LOL yea ive had loose playsets and the activators have never worked for me either. I just sold a wonder woman invisible airplane playset that had never been played with and i tried the activator out without taking it out of the plastic and it was a dudd also

        I've always wanted to play with one of those... after actually buying a loose one (either, or both playsets).... and it's sure a disappointment to hear about the faulty activator function. Shucks.

          Some of them did work initially. Mine worked for my bridge and the Fortress of Solitude I had as a kid.

                The activator in my Fortress of Solitude set I had as a kid worked perfectly, too.
                Still need to pick up an activator for my Exploding Bridge set... that's the only part I'm missing.

                    You're making that up, you just have to be. I refuse to believe that an activator existed that worked perfectly. Maybe the first time or two, then it broke, but no way did one ever actually just work the way it was supposed to.

                        I don't think I've seen a working one in decades.

                          I know cause i got a little to excited and was working it over and over lol but i finally stopped and caught myself and figured i would leave some life in it without wearing it out. I have prob like 5 or 6 of them in playsets but none of them work so it was great to have one do the job right

                            Ha ha, nope... I'm serious. I blew that red door off many, many times.
                            I loved that playset.
