Hot Dog Mobile

Hot Dog, it's a Hot Wheels car.
This dragster is a real funny car.
It's a fun car and I liked it so I bought it, even without a clear reason for it.
It has a little barbecue on the back and the lid closes.
The front red part is a spatula!
The lid closes on the barbecue on the back.

The bottom is not as exciting as the top!
Closed grill.  I suspect this will end up as a Joker, or Riddler car since it is humorous.
With Batman!

Coffee Cup

This is the set I got at Dollar General for the tea pot.
These are the cups, a bit tall.
More like coffee mugs.
There is a Catwoman episode of the Batman TV show where he and Robin are put in a coffee cup.
So I cut down a coffee mug to make a coffee cup.
Batman standing behind the cup to give a size idea.  I will probably make a 1/2 Batman and Robin to fit in the cup.

Little Car

Instant Boost from Hot Wheels.
A little race car.
Shown here with Batman in 1/72 nd scale.
The head of the driver is huge so this is supposed to be a sort of go-cart and a driver of about 1/48th scale.
The engine is very cool.
Interesting clear parts.
Bottom is pretty plain.
Not sure what I will do with this figure but we shall see.

Batman Mad Hatter Hats

In the Batman 66 comic book series one of the first ones was a Mad Hatter story.
In that story there are flying platforms in the shape of top hats that Mad Hatter uses as a form of transportation.
I got these hats in a little set at the dollar store.  The hat is too deep for 1/72nd scale figures to fit inside and look over the rim, so I used an old auto club card, cut up, to increase the height of the interior.
Robin inside the gray hat testing for size.
I used a bit of a dollar store toy electrical generator to hold the bit of auto club card off the bottom of the hat.
They turned out pretty good, but there is more to come!
