1979 Corgi Jr Catalog

I find them occasionally at flea markets, usually go for a couple of bucks because people think it's just a generic space ship.

I've got to get on the lookout then.

I had a bunch when I was a kid. They were pretty common at Macks and such. (Except the ones I had were a light metallic blue, not grey like the catalog pic.)

I remember looking into the back windows of my Superman Van and the windows of my Hulk car back when I was a kid after seeing the commercials for the Hot Wheels Super Hero Scene Machines and wondering why I didn't get to see nifty pictures inside of them. I held them up to the light and everything!

Me too! It seems tailor-made for that feature.

One thing that always puzzled me on the Corgi Jrs was that god-awful (but charming) Batman drawing where he looks like a Macy Thangksgiving Day Parade balloon. It was either that or THE classic Neal Adams running image. Talk about opposite ends of the spectrum!

I have a couple of those Batmobiles and helicopters. They are so cute. I didn't know that Batcycle was part of the set, saw one on Aussie Ebay not long ago.
