I forgot about the Legends of the Dark Knight line. Was that the one with Joker, where his upper torso came apart, only to reveal the "real" torso hugging the dynamite or some such? That line was pretty creative at the time, and the sculpts were good. Never understood why Bane appeared to have long brown hair flowing out from under his mask, though.
I got a look at the Vampire Batman and Beware the Batman figures today. Both are cool (that BTB one is stylized a bit much for my liking, not even sure how the figure can stand). Vampire Batman is cool looking, especially cool that the wings come on and off. I just want a big, bulky, Kelley Jones-style Batman in this line with a huge, flowing cape and those accentuated, scary details.

Yes that was the LotDK line. Still looking for the Vampire Batman.

Not sure which ones you are talking about but the larger Justice League ones were from claw machines. But the smaller bean bag ones were sold at the old WB Studio stores in the mid-late 90's. These were WBSS  |

I was referring to the Supergirl one. You must have spent a fortune on trying to win the Justice League ones from the Claw Machine

Supergirl was for WB Studio Store. And actually the JL were very easy in the claw machines. But there was a pink cow my wife wanted that took $12. lol. Only to have it lost in shipping when her office moved from NJ back to NYC. The one box with all her personal items (pictures and toys) was lost by FedEx.

You and me both. My favorite thing was always the giant Batman and Superman statues all stores had on the back wall.

What was everyone's opinion on the Kenner Superman Conversion Coupe that came with the Clark Kent figure? I think it was a dumb vehicle like the Robin Dragster that made absolutely no sense whatsoever. On the flip side we got an awesome stand alone Clark Kent figure

For the most part I agree with that, but I did like the idea of the Robin dragster. But yes the Clark Kent was cool. Now maybe if the coupe turned into so sort of ship for space travel it would have made better sense. A car for Clark made sense, but not for Superman.
Also along the custom coupe theme I also found the JL motorcycle Flash & Superman pretty pointless.

Kenner made a Gotham City bank playset from The New Batman Adventures line I don't think it ever saw the light of day in the US. I could be wrong though.  They also made a Joker Toxic Lab  These seem like a cool idea since they are a huge departure from that repainted Wayne Manor/Batcave Playset |

They did and it did. I have both. God knows where they are right now. Somewhere boxed up in one of the closets or in the attic. But they were both released in the states.

Speaking of weird playsets and vehicles, Does anyone remember the Knight Camo Batmobile? It was a repainted Batman TAS Batmobile painted blue with black bats for camo.

^ I do. They did camo versions of a lot of the BTAS and TNBA vehicles. There was also a silverish repaint of a few as well.
And I remember those playsets. Pretty cool, but I never got either one of them.

It was a TRU Exclusive called "Guardian of Gotham City" or something along those lines.
