Bat Updates and News
1. Back From Chicago. We took a quick trip to Chicagoland over Labor Day weekend to meet our future in-laws and take A. to the Legoland Discovery Center (the only one in this country) The lego place was pretty cool, though over-valued for what you got. The Lego stores however were amazing. Imagine being a 7 year old and being allowed to buy replacement Lego parts from bins… Oh yeah, they had this cool thing to pose with:
2. Crimefighter Figures. The second and last batch of finished/painted crimefighter figure sets are going out this week. That’s it for the first gen. figures. We are working on a follow-up set but we don’t expect to have news on them for a little while yet. Our thanks to everyone who’s been patient and supportive through us finding our way with these.
3. Upgrade Parts Set #01. Well the Super Elite came, saw, but sadly didn’t conquer. Not even close. But we said we were waiting and we did. So now the wait is over. We are now moving forward with the first parts upgrade set. Hopefully we’ll have news on ordering and what’s in the final set very, very soon.
4. Products Page Updates. These are coming this weekend. We promise. Other new items and corrected pricing and photos. Sorry but we’ve been BIZZY. If you’re still having problems logging in – read one of the many helpful explanatory articles peppered here and there on this site.

ADMIN: Taken care of. :)
1. Who says I didn’t pull out a lego brick? :)
2. Sorry Jim, I’m vegetarian. No corpse food for me.
3. That’s Michael Chiklis.
4. And that’s LEGO Michael Chiklis.
I forgot to mention regarding re displaying the Elite Batmobile in the Hotwheels oval display case about afixing the proper logo at the case ends. Download an image of the ‘66 Batman logo, print it out on good phot paper and glue it on each end of the case with good contact cement.
I am so disappointed. I thought Michael Chiklis looked really handsome on TV, but apparently in person it’s quite a different story.
