So, I found a carded Batmobile at a thrift store...

[Scarylad]

Yep. I really did.

I am not too familiar with MEGO and had no idea this even existed on a card. I have been scouring the internet looking at pictures of other Batmobiles and have a question.

This one has a sticker on the hood. It is of Batman's face. Is this supposed to be there?

[Iron Mego]

Nope, the sticker isn't supposed to be there. This is a very nice thrift store find. Hope it was cheap!

As you can see, this is "crazy rare."

Unless things have changed, that's an Indiana Jones kind of find.

Great find

Do us a favor and take a number of really hi-res shots from every angle.

[ScottA]

There us no way you should have left it. Great find. I've been looking for that version for eons.

[hedrap]

Wait - You did buy this, right?

You didn't come here and ask about it, while it's sitting in a thrift store, correct?

...and didn't Benbarb sell one of these, maybe a year or two ago?

I remember seeing the cardback for the first time in an auction.

[toys2cool]

I'm sure he bought it

[Scarylad]

Yes, I bought it straight away. I knew it was something special. That tingly toy feeling, ya know?

I paid $39.00 for it.

Here is a picture of the sticker on the hood. Anyone know what it is from?

Looks like the sticker from the bat cycle

Why don't I ever find things like that in thrift stores?!!

Awesome find!

[toys2cool]

$39?? sweet deal man

[Hedji]

Why don't I ever find things like that in thrift stores?!!

Awesome find!

I was thinking the same thing! Your heart must've been racing! Congrats!

Wow! All right, so I will ask politely on the public boards.... Are you looking to sell? You said you are not too familiar with Mego stuff so I'm not sure your desire to keep it. Members have spent years searching for that with no success and your find is stuff of thrift store dreams! What do you collect? I'm curious if you would also look into trading?
If I found that at a thrift store I would keep it and never tell my wife its real worth! ha!
