Holy Marconi Batman

[RSS]

William Dozier should have gotten royalties for all the "holy" gags used in toy catalogs over the years. These 3-d Walkie Talkies are neat to display but I can't imagine that they were much fun to use, I could see myself dropping them.

I loved playing hide and seek with walkie talkies when I was a kid.

I have the AM radio shaped exactly like that Bats. I use it every day as I get ready for work. I wonder if its the same manufacturer.

I didn't have these Walkie Talkies but I did have a set as a kid and they SUCKED! You couldn't get too far away or they wouldn't work and by the time they did work your friend was so close you didn't need the damn things anyway. I lived in a rural-like area so it wasn't a matter of city buildings or anything like that.

they are pretty cool looking. I had the Star Trek communicators when I was a kid. You could not get to far away from each with those either

Most often the electronic problems started on Christmas day, and the toy stopped working all together by New Years.
