I just got a Batman from a local guy along with a bunch of other Megos.
Looks like he has a factory vinyl sticker emblem. What do you guys think? Have you seen one like this before?

Some very precise vinyl repro emblems are available.
But as far as I know, a vintage 8-inch Batman should come with either a paper sticker or (later released) thin waffled fabric sticker.
WANTED: RM Robin & P. Parker heads; Batman "waffle" gloves; mint Wolfman tights; Knights', Merry Men, Conan, & Dale Arden swords; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula head;T1 GGoblin body (in good shape but can restring); blue Batcycle (no side-car); POTA Soldier Ape minty bandolier; yellow bridle & stirrups; POTA Stallion complete set of tack; Fighting Furies Spanish & Buccaneer outfits & boxed Hook.
Could it be the vinyl emblem from the 12" figure?

One never knows with MEGO. It could very well be real. But the odds are that it is just a reproduction. It does look really nice!

Hmmm, I know they switched from the paper to the cloth emblems about 79 or 80. I am not 100% sure on this, but I seem to recall hearing ...somewhere (?)...that Superman and Batman might have come with vinyl "heat sealed" type insignias (ala the 12" figures) near the end of the run?
This one looks like a modern made decal version (at least in the picture it does)...I think when (If) Mego did the vinyl ones, they were heat sealed to the cloth.
