Description

DC Batman Lot of 7 Featuring Bootlegs, Exclusive Gumball Machines, & More (various, 1980s-2000s). This wild seven-item assortment of Batman-themed oddities is a collector's crash course in off-brand charm, international flair, and unauthorized Bat-merch. Included are two "American Hero" bootleg action figures styled loosely after Batman and Robin, complete with chaotic package art mashing together characters from multiple universes. You'll also find the transforming "Bat Robot vs Zectron" figure (Made in Taiwan, distributed in Spain), a charmingly clunky morphing mech with illustrated instructions on the back. The lot also includes a bilingual Batman figure made by Bikin (likely for the French market), a 1989 Toy Biz Penguin with missile-firing umbrella, a Bat Gun taht shoots soft darts, and a 1999 WB Studio Store Exclusive Gotham City Gumball Machine - a quirky reminder of the studio's peak merchandising era. Most items are sealed, and condition varies across the lot. Moderate edge and corner wear is present, with moderate to severe scuffing, veining, and surface blemishes across cardbacks and boxes. See images for further condition details. Items are sold as is. For collectors of the bizarre, the bootlegged, and the Bat-brand-adjacent, this lot is a Gotham goldmine. Whether you're a vigilante completist, a lover of overseas oddities, or just someone who wants a "Zectron" in their life, this grab bag delivers more punch than a Joker joy buzzer.
