I realized that, since it has no base, the 30" Batman could stand flat against the wall, and
thus hide the telephone jack that was formerly not-so-well hidden by the Infantino-
esque statue. So I moved some things around. Here's a full shot of the "Bat-Section" of
my DC shelves.

Awesome Batman display, J.B..
Thanks for sharing!
-A short while ago you posted a shot of your drawing desk,
and I caught a glimpse of this shelf in the background.
I've been hoping for a close-up ever since.-
I also spy an animated-style Batman (in a crouching pose) bank. It is a sore spot for me that I never picked it up from the WB store in Florida
back in '95.
This is the first time I've seen it since, and I recognized it immediately!
-As if I needed another reason to WISH THAT I WAS John Byrne!-

John,
On the far left of the pic, in front of the 50's batmobile, Is that a 40's version?
If so, How? Who? When? Where? I didn't know they made those! I need one!

I have two 1940s Batmobiles, large and small. Both were made by Corgi.

JB,
That Batman figure is HUGE!!! Good buy! Do you have any Batgirl figures to go with your Batman section? Or have you had a hard time finding any you like? She can be a tricky one.

I never got into collecting action figures or statues but I am a big Rolling
Stones fan. When I saw this action figure of Captain Teague (18" tall) aka
Jack
Sparrow's father I just had to have it. Especially since it talks with Keith's
voice.
While it wasn't as good as the first two films, Keith's appearance was one
of
the bright spots. I was very surprised on the quality, was expecting it to
be all hard plastic but the hat seems like leather and the coat has a great
feel to it.

••
There's a movie Batgirl (visible just in front of the Batmite picture), and, of
course, the minibust is in with the Women of DC, not visible in the shot
above. But, you're right. I've not had much luck finding Batgirl stuff I like.
