Well, I love Batman, did since I was a kid but I was never really a collector of anything. Well I was going through my attic, and I found all of my old Batman toys that I had. Sadly I don't have a camera, but I found a website with pictures of every single one. I was 4-5 at the time, didn't really know anything I just bought the ones that looked cool. Haha, but yeah here they are:

My first Batman action figure ever!

Me too, wow I remember I live in a suburb near Chicago, and I was at Lake Michigan and I lost my Robin action figure by these big rocks near the lake. I was so mad, I spent the whole time trying to find it =[

I also used to have this Batmobile from Batman Forever, that could turn into the Batboat and Batplane, this is the closest image I could find..

man!! I can't even find pics on ebay of the action figures and vehicles I use to have.
Of course I had a few of the corgi Barris batmobiles, the Super Powers Batman and batmobile. Also had a couple of the mego figures and the mego Batmobile.
Back in the late 70's early 80's there was a Batman figure that had a string running out of his extended arm. Attatch it to something and it would mechaniclly pull Batman up a wall. Not the spring action of today. This thing took batteries. No articulation justa really cool cloth cape and the extemted arm with the 'batrope' lol. Then came the comics. Man did my perspective of Batman change completely after that.

I already have and there was only two pages. Most of which were the B'89 style toys lol. There were a few mego dolls, the mego '66 Batmobile, a superpowers, a captain action, and some wall ornaments.

You lucky dog. I think I had one toy out of those when I was a kid. Needless to say, I didn't get many toys as a child...

I remember trying to make a cardboard roof for the batmobile, and failing miserably. Why the manufacturers didnt put one on i'll never know.

Generation Y doesnt have to wait to feel sad about the past. We have the internet with all the information about fifteen years ago right in front of us. Its easy to get nostalgic.

I miss when Batman Begins came out.

And that old ass bat-rag on a string toy looks gay as hell.

You're right about that. Its like the toy companies cared more about their product back then than they do now. I remember when the B&R figures hit the shelves, it was all the generic cards with just the little inserts in the bubble. The package art was part of the appeal for me. I wish theyd go back to that also.

Yes we can, as long as we're getting nostalgic about Mighty Morphin Power Rangers or Ninja Turtles. Or old Nickelodeon shows.
