    Almost voted for the Batcave because of the cool Batsignal, but then I realized my batsignal just got appropriated for the Wayne Foundation. The displayability of the WF just rocked.

          I can't vote because my favorite playset isn't listed - The Wizard of Oz Witch's Castle. I realize I am in a vast minority here, but that playset is almost perfect for the Knight's line. This especially true since the castle from the 1975 catalog was never produced, or at least not to our knowledge.

            I had to go with Wayne Foundation, but the Enterprise playset is very very close behind. I played with the transporter for hours and hours.

              I thought I'd catch hell for not including Dinah's Ski Chalet but the entire Oz line is a pretty glaring omission isn't it?

              I chose Forbidden Zone Trap because of it's concept, I remember seeing a boxed one as a kid (this was well into Star Wars) and thinking it was awesome.

                  I had to go with Batcave out of nostalgia. And it captured the things a kid loved about the TV show Batcave well, the Batpole and hidden entrance. How many kids ruined the latch by shoving the Batmobile through the opening?

                  I managed to get a Batcave with box for a really good price in the late 90s. The kid on the box looks just like me circa 1978 or 79. About the time I got it.

                    Ha! What, no Dinah's Health Spa?

                    Honestly, if you hadn't included the Mad Monster Castle to remind me I probably would have gone with the Enterprise Bridge or the Forbidden Zone Trap.

                      Tough call since I never had any playsets as a kid. So since the Dinah-Mite Beach House isn't listed I went with the Batcave.

                        I voted for the Enterprise Bridge since it's the only playset I plan to purchase.

                            Wow tough choice as two of my all time favs are listed the batcave and the enterprise, as i had both as a kid but in the end i picked the batcave for the simple reason it had more play value to me as a kid

                              Wayne Foundation: 4 floors of Mego goodness, awesome art, plenty of accessories, a roof to park the Batcopter, a working elevator, nothing can top that

                                I voted for the Batcave. I actually still have it. I also had the Enterprise and the Gamma playsets, but as a kid they seemed to me more off in design from the "real" thing than the cave did.
                                It's all good!
