    Help me decide

    Okay problem time here.I've been wanting to make a motorcycle for my Ghost Rider, he looks wierd walking everywhere.I thought if I found a Batcycle it would work out good for the mid 70's comic book version.So last weekend at a flea market I found a loose one for $35.00 ,no side car but in good shape.I ask the guy if he would take $25.00 and he said sure.Then he said if I could wait a minute he find the rest of it for me,he was still unpacking his stuff.So I stand there waiting and he comes back to the table and hands me a sidecar and a Batman figure too.Batmans missing his cape and belt and gloves, but now I have a complete blue batcycle and having issues turning it into Ghost Riders bike since its complete.Should I wait for another bike by itself or just use this one?

    If it were me I don't think I could destroy a complete Batcycle even for a good cause. I'd probably wait for another bike.

      Since you asked I'd leave it as is and enjoy Batman having a ride. It shouldn't be too hard to find another one without a sidecar.

            I would wait too, I would have a hard time using a complete batcycle for a custom (but that is just me)

              How does a mego figure look sitting on it?I thought the Marvel Legend figures were a little smaller.Thanks for the tip.

                  Your right, it looks to small this way, but I am going to raise and angle the handle bars to make it work......

                    Thanks for posting the pic,It would probably look okay if he just stood beside it, love those flaming tires.

                      My opinion would be to not to do it to your blue batcycle. There are plenty of other options that would not entail destroying a vintage toy.

                      I "might" have an extra black batcycle that you can do surgery on......PM if interested and we can talk more about it if you like. I may have a couple of other options for you as well.

                          Wow, what a Bat-tastic deal! I would leave the cycle alone as well. I wish I had one.

                            I have an extra Evel style Human torch bike that would be perfect, still has the launcher and everything. just needs handlebars. it's already flamed on, and the launcher is a cow skull, looks like a reused mold for a GR toy.
