Vintage Batman mask

This vintage mask (made in France in the early 80's) arrived some days ago. I just had to have it tough I already have one exactly like it but I used to wear it when I was a kid and pretended I was Batman:

This one is in mint condition and sealed in it's original packaging. Very, very rare... :-)

But as it's a zip bag so I took it out as the plastic could damage the mask after so many years of storage.

New poster "Joker's Back in Town!"

One of my favorite Batman covers will be released in the UK (probably in the US too...) as a poster on February 19th. I just had to have it so I've placed a pre-order...

This issue of Batman (#251) was published in 1973 and featured the classic Joker story "The Joker's Five-Way Revenge" by the legendary trio Dennis O'Neal (writer), Neal Adams (penciller) and Dick Giordano (ink).

Graphic novels x 4

It was a long time since I got some graphic novels/comic books and I felt like reading so I bought these (used) yesterday:

Maybe Batman needs a Robin...

Ok.. I'm on a break from collecting but I couldn't resist bidding on this vinyl/PVC Robin figure from Hamilton Gifts. I've got two Batman figures (different paint schemes) made by the same company so they are what you may call a perfect match...


Here's an already posted pic with the matching Batman figure in the right corner. Now all I need is the Joker figure from the same line...

Some non-Batman items from my collections...

Here's some items from my other collections.. I'm still on a break from collecting and I don't want the blog to be put on hold in the meantime. So here goes...


A Big Jim action figure/doll called Professor Obb. I only have three other Big Jim figures left as I sold a lot of stuff some years ago.


A Secret Agent set from my vintage toy collection.


A rare Yoda plastic mask from 1983. I sold 90% of my Star Wars collection in 2003.


I love old horror movies and the silent era. The Phantom of the Opera from 1925 is one of my favorites. This is the black and white version of the Lon Chaney Phantom action figure.
