Review by Flabat:
This review is an oldie, but a goodie. I was 23 when these came out and not a collector at the time. These had been off the shelves for nearly eight years before I started collecting seriously. I recently picked up one along with a MOC Super Powers Batman. I have a Super Powers The Joker as well, but he?s incomplete (missing the green hammer and his ?tails?). I hope to keep adding more Super Powers Collection items as I can get them.
The Super Powers Collection, based on the TV show at the time ushered in the modern era of the small plastic action figure. They are the last major series of figures not to have variants in Techicolor Batsuits. Toy Biz reused many of the Super Powers figures when they had the Batman License in 1989. Kenner's The Dark Knight Collection Batman was based on a retooled Super Powers one.
SPECS:
The Batmobile is 13 3/8 inches long (closed) 15 (Bat-A-Ram and Bat-Claw? open), 5 7/8 inches wide and 3 inches high. Push button activated Bat-A-Ram? pops out in the front, Bat-Eyes? pop up on the hood and Bat-Claw? pops out at the rear. Rear wheels produce an exciting power sound when car is pushed forward.
PROS:
It's a timeless classic and an iconic version of the Batmobile. Well thought out action features that will keep working for years.
CONS:
None. It's simple and well built.
OVERALL:
Kenner also released The Batmobile in Canada. & Under the Play Ful Toy Line.
