RIP Yvonne. And yes there is that tiny ignorant fanboy part of me that laments that I just missed out on being able to get the three pack signed by all three of them. I know, I know...I'm a horrible person. I'll get over it at some point. But, I have met her before and she was a very nice person. She will be missed. It sucks that her death came so closely on the heels of the "Baltimore Batman" getting killed as well. The Bat-world has been dealt two blows in such a short amount of time. It's a shame that she died. I wonder if scalpers have been scalping her 3pack because of her death I haven't checked, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Has anyone found the TRU/SDCC Batgirl on the East Coast yet? I saw on Instagram a few weeks ago it started hitting the West Coast.

I honestly haven't looked. I think the last time I was at TRU was last week and it was just to pick up a Disney Infinity 3.0 figure with a tech ability.

I wish TRU's site would just restock lol. Though I do have 20% off one regular priced item in store only that would be nice to use.

It's sad when Mattel made less Villains than Figures Toy Company

So I am watching Creature from the Black Lagoon on METV and the host just mentioned George Barris and how he will be missed. Turns out he passed away on Nov 5. I hadn't heard any mention of this until about 5 minutes ago. My uncle who passed away a couple years ago was good friends with him. Very sad news.

The thing that blows my mind isthe story of him buying a vehicle for a dollar and turning it into the Batmobile.

He created some awesome custom cars for Hollywood over the years. He gave us The Beverly Hillbillies 1923 Oldsmobile Truck The Munster Koach, he only built it from Tom Daniels design. He did the custom work on the General Lee He made Anycar III for Manufacturers Hanover Bank Most importantly he gave us the 1966 Batmobile. He only paid $1 for the 1955 Lincoln Futura Concept car that became the Batmobile. I'm still kicking myself for not buying the Hot Wheels Boulevard 1955 Lincoln Futura

Oh the pain! My Brother-in-law took my daughter to the Philadelphia Comic Con today to meet Tom Huddleston as her graduation present. So he sends me a text with two pics entitled "Check out my new wheels!" And the second is of him sitting in it waving. So I say did Elizabeth get a pic behind the wheel knowing it is my all time favorite car. And the reply " No she didn't think it was worth the $10." WHAT!?

I hate having my picture taken, but you're damned right I'd fork over 10 bucks to get a pic of me behind the wheel of the Batmobile!

Hell, I wouldn't even need a pic...I would pay the $10 just to sit in it.

I got to see one of the Batmobiles that's at a Car museum up the road from me. I didnt get my pic taken in it because the woman that was there was obnoxious. Seeing that pic though I might head up next week and get one taken in it and the General Lee.

Not sure if every Toys R Us has this going, but the one in Phillipsburg, NJ has the Batcave & 6 inch Batman figure for $20.99. Quite a bargain!
