In the Batman TV show, the Duo is Slumming episode, Andy Devine appears in character as Santa Claus. Santie Claus as he pronounces it.
So that makes Santa Claus a Batman character.
I am building a small Santa's Village for my American Cities project. Often large cities just outside of town in the forest would have an amusement park, or tourist destination with a Santa Claus and sort of secular Christmas theme.
They typically had a few small rides for the kiddies, a petting zoo, restaurant, and shops, lots of shops. And of course Santa Claus.
This little resin building came from Hobby Lobby, it lights up. It's actually for Valentines Day, but the gingerbread house motif works for Christmas too.
Shown here with my Dollar General on sale Christmas tree.
Race wants a hydrofoil for Christmas.
This little train is also from Dollar General over the last couple years I got several of them. It consists of one locomotive, one box car and a small circle of track. I got a bunch of them so my loco motive could pull a few cars. The surplus locomotives will be repurposed as stationary steam engines in factories, or in small steamers.
The Wooden Soldiers are also from some dollar store a few years ago, they are Christmas tree decorations.
Santa needs a whole army of toy soldiers because, why not?
