I have also been tempted to extend past my original vow to purchase only the sets that resonated with my youth. On the whole, I was a little sceptical of the viability of a third wave, but seeing such sets as the Justice League Anniversary Party (70919) and Egghead’s Mech Food Fight(70920) my spirits have been lifted.

Just as we thought the LEGO® Batman Movie had been merchandised within an inch of its life, we bear witness to another wave of sets and a second series of collectible mini figures. It was all fun and games, unless somebody loses an eye… I have no idea what the actual rockets were like that came with the toy. But it had other great play features: push on the radar on the hood, and a blade would flick out ( of course, it was not sharp enough to inflict actual injury) and the rocket launcher. Thank heavens it was never raining in Gotham City! But the really awesome thing was the Corgi Batmobile car: gloss black, with small figures of batman and Robin, as well as an image of Batman embossed on the bottom service of the car.

This modified Ford Futura allowed Batman and Robin to leap over the door, and into their respective sets. The program was about as serious as eight year old me could deal with.īut there was, undoubtedly, one thing that made this series realy cool: and extended into the world outside the living room: The Batmobile. This was the program that introduced me to the cliffhanger episodeic ending….Tune in Tomorrow: Same Bat Time, Same Bat Channel. I was still of an age where I was somewhat disappointed to discover that the characters were all ‘Live Action’ after the animated titles. The title card promised that the program would be in colour… and it was. My family had just bought their first colour television, and the theme music started pulsing through the house. Already the series was a decade old, and it was screening after school in melbourne.
