Neatorama.com is one of my daily internet stops, and when I hit it today, lo and behold, I find this. A little online PR to brighten my day.

Looks better than I ever thought it would, but have zero interest in purchasing.

I think someone posted this before, pretty funny stuff. I'm kinda interested in the bacon pancakes myself!

3rd story below the Batboy Megolike article is a Dog Poop collector that found 58 bucks in the dog poop...I wouldn't want to touch that cash

That Batboy figure looks pretty cool. Don't know if I'd put him in my collection. Just a little too disturbing IMHO.

Up in the sky - it is a bird? No wait...a boy? A BAT BOY!

From the Weekly World News comes the first ever Bat Boy figure! Discovered in cave by scientists, Bat Boy struggles to find his place in the world…more specifically a strong branch to hang from. He loves chocolate covered mosquitoes, long walks at night, and YOU! Give him a good home...but keep the pets away from him. Also, keep hands away from Bat Boy's mouth - HE BITES! In fact...it may be best just to leave him in the package.

This figure was produced with our friends at Executive Replicas and uses bodies from Dr. Mego! Note: The final product may vary. Bat Boy and all the Weekly World News characters are © and TM 2010 Bat Boy LLC

Neither do I, actually. But I don't think we're the target market. I think this appeals to kitsch and hipster-types rather than us.

I just thought it was cool to see a ReMego on a news/aggregate site, one that isn't toy-oriented at all.

I wouldn't say no to those, either.

Yeah, how come these are only being invented now?

[LonnieFisher]

I can't see anybody wanting this figure...

[Meule]

I'm a monster fan and even I have no interest in this

[LadyZod]

I kinda do want this figure.

I loved the Weekly World News... and this is goofy enough to fit my interests.

Hmmmm....

I think it's a neat idea, but the head's kinda big. I also think it's neat that someone's doing a Mego-esque figure for a subject nobody would ever think viable.

I never thought there'd be a "Mego" that I didn't care to buy. Sorry Bat Boy!

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

I kinda of like him and want one.
