This is my feeble attempt to make a thread, so please bear with me.
I was out shopping last night for some Christmas Cards to send with gifts for a few friends at a local store. Of course after that I wandered to the the electronics and then to Toys on my way out of the store. Usually I look at the G. I. Joes, Fantastic Four, Marvel Legends, Batman and Spider-man toys nothing really caught my eye. Then I turn around and see Batmobiles by CORGI on a diecast of 1:43 Scale. Now I got a few of these last Christmas as stocking stuffers. Just in luck, I happen to know each one of my friends favorite Batmobile and they had them all there. So I scooped up a few of them as a extra little stocking stuffer for them with their gifts. Who doesn't like the Batmobile, right? I picked up the Redbird (since they make very few Robin toys,) and a 60's Batmobile for myself. I still would like to get the Robin motorcycle one.
These things are pretty accurate to the comics, animation, and movie adaptation of Batmobiles, and various other vehicles. Doing a google search on them that they will release Wave 3 next year with Batman/Danger Girl Batmobile, 2004 Teen Titans Batmobile, 1968 Comic Book Batmobile, Child of Dreams Batmobile. Here (http://www.toymania.com/toyshows/tf2005/corgi.shtml) and Here (http://store.sputniktoys.com/batmobiles.html) are some of the items they have released thus far.
One of my favorite toys as a kid in the 70's was The Exploding Bridge Playset that came with Joker, Penguin, Batman, Robin and of course The Exploding Bridge.

So I guess I have been rambling long enough.
What has been some of your most memorable holiday Batman Toy you recieved?
or
What Batman item would you like to receive in the future?
