Finally Completed RC Batman w/ Skinny Boots

[convoy357]

I had everything I needed to complete this figure except a stirrup suit. Picked up the skinny boots awhile back but couldn't use them with a regular Batman suit, so had to wait till I could find a nice stirrup version. Took a few months, but finally scored one in an eBay lot and it arrived today!



I had a devil of a time trying to get the boots on. Seems like his feet are too big for them! After some gentle persistence, I got them on......without any damage!



He turned out great! Very pleased with this guy. The decal is a repro but all the rest is original and is the correct version parts to the best of my knowledge. He's definitely the prize of my little Mego collection.....LOL. Now the next project.....an RM Robin! Ha. Yeah right!

Congrats on the Batman!!! The Robin isn't that hard to find the Mask is lol

Good for you bro!! Feels awesome doesn't it?

Thanks! I think the Mego RC Batman is one of the classic action figures of all time. I never had one as a kid, but wish I had. I enjoy having this figure in my collection, but the only childhood memories it brings back to me is when I saw the pics of the Mego stuff when I was flipping thru the Christmas catalogs looking for GI Joes.

I do hope to add a RM Robin at some point, but if I have to settle for a repro mask then so be it.

Congratulations! Nothing like an all original RC Batman to make your collection SHINE! Very nice! Nothing beats the original. Nothing...

I am almost there with mine. I still need a good cowl that isn't torn.

Congrats!!

Be careful leaving the cowl on indefinitely they can smudge blue on the figure

[Den82]

I know. I used that stuff that gets stains off dolls (I cannot recall the name of it, the stuff with the trees on the container). It did an EXCELLENT job on the blue stains, but sadly too off paint from the eyebrows...which were MINT when I got the figure.

congrats! I agree he is one of the best figures of all time.

I had one as a kid - and now have a perfect one as an adult (minus 1 skinny boot)
I am on the hunt for 1 mint skinny boot! if anyone has one to sell or trade lmk.
